Michael jackson invaded the 80’s with his thriller (83) and bad (87) albums. Not to mention his off the wall album released 1979. Madonna started with her self titled album in 83, followed by like a virgin (84), true blue (86), who’s that girl (88) and like a prayer (89). That’s why, they were the best selling male and female artists of the 80s 😊
Artists would release singles from the same album in the same year, so it should come as no surprise that several songs would hit the charts within the same 12 month period. It's how it was when albums and singles were released in physical form. Singles had to sell in the 100,000's to get into the top echelons of the charts, back then.
George Michael is up there with Freddie Mercury, Steve Perry, Michael Jackson, and many other as the best singer in modern history (imo). They all have such unique voices.
How nice it was to hear those hits again. I have the greatest sentiment to listen to your heart Roxette. I remember it was the first song I heard on a walkman I got from my dad as a kid, and Roxette joyride lived the first cassette I bought with my own money. I learned to dance in the lambadas in my parents' salon. Beautiful times and memories are associated with almost all of them.❤
There's no way I can choose a favourite from all these! I was 12 when the 80s started and 22 when they finished, so all these songs are part of the soundtrack of my life (even the ones I didn't much like at the time 😉).
Have you checked out the cars of the 80s? OMG! Weekends were for cruisin! The everyday vehicles ( muscle cars, sports cars, custom paint jobs) I look around today, SOOOooo fkg Blah ! 90% White, grey or Black shoe cars & SUVs
I love GTA: Vice city. Flash FM, Emotion, Fever 105 and some songs from Wave station i absolutely listen til today. Michel Jackson had 5+ hits from each album in 80's and 90's. Of course they were released only few months apart.
@@belessretarded4770 Oh I don't know. I thought it really good. Though the Shaun of the Dead guys didn't, apparently. Some great tracks on it. 'Vicky Waiting' a partic fave of mine, fwiw 🙂
2:07 John Lennon was murdered on December 1980, when he had just released his comeback album.
Prince’s BATDANCE came from BATMAN SOUNDTRACK starring jack nicholson (joker), kim basinger (vicky bale) and michel keaton (batman) 😊

80's was an amazing time to be young. Still mainly listen to 80's music lol
These are always fun to watch. I was in my 20's in the 80's so this was in my wheel house.

I love the 80's when music was real music ❤
The 80’s is THE best decade for music!!!

I was born in 1980, they use to play these songs at our school discos..A much simpler time.
They really bring me back, I used to listen to them in my youth and I have nostalgic feelings for songs that came out two decades before I was born.
I want a time machine to take me back.

Gta Vice City gave me Nostalgia for songs that came out decades before I was born
Madonna, MJ, George Michael, Janet Jackson, and Whitney. The last GREAT icons...
You'd be surprised that Phil Collins and MJ had 8 #1s in the 80s followed by Madonna and GM with 7 #1s.
Those 3 artist killed it in the 80s
prince was on the sound track of the 89 batman movie
the bat dance seems to catch everyone by surprise
Rock Me Amadeus!
Iam a bit late to the reaction, but hell ye, Vice City brought so much music into my life.
Sweet Dream and Tainted love I know from Marilyn Manson his covers
Prince's was from his soundtrack of a Batman movie.
Jack Nicholson played the joker, Michael Keaton Batman.
It’s the weirdest number one of the 80’s imo.

@@jfergs.3302 all the other chart toppers toed the line and played it safe except Prince especially with Batdance.
@@belessretarded4770 Aye, he was one of the greats, no question.
Possibly a slightly unfortunate choice of words regarding Mr Lennon! Hah!
ahahaa
He was a knob and a half
You have to listen some Toto songs you you never did!
George Harrison most successful post Beatle.
Why this joke btw?
Eighties are THE BEST. The rest is poor
