I'm starting to blur the late 80s and early 90s...did Mariah Carey come out in the 80s? What about Michael Bolton? John Tesh as a singer?

They were 90s. 1991.
I was going to use them along with my Debbie Gibson reference until I looked up when they had their first single.

How bad was '70's Bad Music? The following is presented as irrefutable evidence of badness:
Tony Joe White
Poke Salad Annie
Down in Lou'siana, where the alligators grow so mean,
There lived a girl that I swear to the world,
Made the alligators look tame,
Poke Salad Annie, Poke Salad Annie
Everybody said it was a shame, cause her
Mama was a workin on the chain gang
(a mean, vicious woman)
Every day 'fore suppertime, she'd go down by the truck patch,
And pick her a mess o' poke salad and carry it home in a tote sack,
Poke Salad Annie, The gators got your granny,
Everybody said it was a shame, cause her
Mama was a workin on the chain gang
(a wretched, spiteful, straight razor totin' woman,
Lord have mercy, pick me a mess of it)
Her daddy was lazy and no count, claimed he had a bad back,
& All her brothers were fit for, was stealin watermelons out of
my truck patch,
Poke Salad Annie, The gators got your granny,
Everybody said it was a shame, cause her
Mama was a workin on the chain gang
(sock a little poke salad to me,
you know I need me a mess of it)

You just missed out on some of their earlier stuff.

my first concert ever was the Bay City Rollers
Stanley Theater in Pgh, I don't know the year, I was in Jr High I think
I made my own tartan-striped ankle pants and shirt. I still remember all their names. I hate a pen pal from Michigan that liked them too. Me and three friends used to lip sync that we were the band. I played bass and sang harmonies.
Don't tell anyone please. I was young.

That's even funnier than the fact that
COACH LOVES NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK!
Though if you post a picture of said garb I won't ridicule you as much as him.

Well, some of the 70's music would include the Beatles' White Album. Then again, it would also include the beginning and end of the disco "movement".
As for the 80's it was a period of gestation until Rage Against the Machine appeared. Who can forget the Seattle Garage (the left out a "B") music ? or Sid Vicious ?
Fortunately, we had to wait until the 90's for Celine Dion.
