I think I'm going to be having a John Hughes marathon soon. I have most, if not all, of these movies.

Aww, man, this is AWESOME, Gen X Dad! Even if some of the clips weren't technically from the '80s, it's still wayyy cool. I remember all of those movies/tv shows. And the music too! Best time growing up! Thanks for the nostalgic trip, dude!

Sammy Elliot watched TV whenever he could sneak over to our house!! His dad wouldn’t let him….. we watched Cowboys!!! Gunsmoke!!

John is a lot of ways raised me.

Best decade Ever!!!!

terminator 1 came out in the 80s. 2 came out in the 90s but because the video is so cool, I can let it slide

Great song with great clips. Such memories

Yep that's all man🎉❤

"What would you little maniacs like to do first" - this line still cracks me up! John Hughs was/is a legend!

Man i miss being a kid and all the fun my friends and i had. Every kid should experience growing up in the 80's and what being a kid was really about. Sadly we cant go back and experience it again and there will never be another time like it.

Weird. US Olympics are pushing fencing hard. So hard that even the computer voice is pushing it.

Born in 76 child of the 80s if I knew what was on the horizon I would have never left. Yes I would go back.

Valley Girl?

Great Minds think alike 🥂

I am a a high school teacher and feel so sorry for today's teenagers. Everything is so politicized, they cannot joke without worrying someone being too sensitive, and the country is going backwards. During the 80s, everything seemed to be going forward and everyone loved the USA!

Weird Science is a cult classic.

@Gen X Dad, Thank you for making these getting ready to hit the road to date. Steve is doing amazing and is enjoying this as well. Thank you from all of us in the industry .

Long live the eighties ❤ Skating Rinks and greatest music ever

Hell yeah, I was fresh out of HS when this came out. I had a porn star mustache myself and the chicks digged it…..hot damn those were the days!

One of my favorites, thank you:)

Gen X Dad, You're awesome! Let's be friends, okay?

This makes my night. Thank you❤

Nothing compares to the 80's. Greatest decade ever!

Listening to our parents talking about the 50’s made me jealous of that awesome time period. I feel the same about the 80’s for us.

AIDS sucked.

What a time to be alive! The 80s were the best!

100% true, I have always hated that "fake it till you make it ", statement it's not just bad advice in the end it limits those who follow it making them think they can do more than they could actually putting in the effort and actually learning. That is a lie ,and unfortunately it's ruined many in this last generation, I'm a little bit younger Gen x man but I was raised like an older boomer and in a lot of ways like one from the silent generation, I've always been very old fashioned and never really agreed with alot of "ways of thinking ", like this, I do appreciate you making this video. Finally someone just stating facts and no opinions I love it 👍

I graduated in 1983. Love this

And is still the generation the have above understanding and compassion not poisoning some food or trying to get me off balance

Class of '85 here and proud of it even though my favorite year was '84.

The 80s America... The Decade of the X... Without so many people, contributing to the art, music and lingo, the 80s would have been just another decade but from Animal House to Risky Business, Breakfast Club to St Elmo's Fire, we left parts of our souls in those old theaters. From Michael Jackson to Michael Jordan, we all wanted to be like Mike. Black lives mattered to us, ALREADY... the only thing those kneelers and marchers invented was a new low, culminating in the fine art of whining about shiz we already fixed in the 80s.... There is a lot about the 80s that about 40% of our citizens ignore.... Generation X needs to wake the woke.... they about some uneducated fools... pretending at a civil rights march that already started with I FOUND IT and found its final victory in HANDS ACROSS AMERICA... The 80s is the answer to all political issues of today... but the left doesnt study history so they dont even know how LATE TO THE PARTY they are.... weirdos and freaks dont make good statesmen. And those who pretend they are sometbing other than who they were at birth, are LIARS... PLAIN AND SIMPLE.. The 80s is when all us kids, who started with INTEGRATION, in the 70s, graduated from Higb School. Generation X is the first-generation of interracial friend groups... we are the reason that the world agrees that ALL LIVES MATTER. And no, this concept is not about any one minirity because it only works when its about EVERYBODY... we figured that out in the 70s and 80s... This new breed of citizen seemz to have decided that the 80s never even happened... Only a punk takes credit from their freakin elders...shame, shame... SHAME....

Love💖 this One!!! 80's 'n' 90's ROCK'D in 🍁Canada🍁 Eh! My 😛hockey 🏒🥅Team 💙🧡🤍won 💥5 💥Stanley🏆 Cups! 🛢'ers!!! Best Hockey 🏒Also!

I wanna go back to a time that was real and made sense 80s

I'm so happy I was born in that era❤❤❤❤

Funny thing is that the first 3-5 years of the 90’s felt like the 80’s afterglow. 80’s movies, music, and TV were still being used all the time and became staples in our culture.

❤ I’m so glad someone is saying this❤ I’ve always told my employees that it’s ok not to know the answer; tell me what you think we should do.

Forgot to add BIG.. 😢 miss you 80s

The last generation to understand what the world was like without internet and cellphones. Social contact was in person and not through an app and screen.

Class of 88❤❤❤

Grew up in the 80s, graduated H.S. in '89, spent my late teens, early 20s in the military, was a "radical" and "knarly" time to be alive! Will never, ever be, a more wonderfully awesome decade!! Long live the 80s!!

Great song, great video.

I love❤ John Hughes n his movies

Love this song❤n group

Who is the guy at 0:11?

Thank you for including a clip from Dr. Detroit - a true lost movie gem from the 80s. 😎

Now days kids and young adults are so angry in this woke culture. Back then, there was less hate and more fun.

Josh is a little creeper! 🤣🤣

The 80s was the best

Damn I miss the 80’s

Love it! I wrote and produced that record.
