Memory pool

So what makes a song from this era important? I could argue that all songs are sublime compositions or that the videos are ground breaking, but it wouldn't be true. Closer to the truth would be: "because I think so".

Get your daily 80's fix and, if you like, share some of your memories with the rest of us.


See you!

P.S. In case you have any of the videos on the list in a decent quality, I
would appreciate if you get in touch with me.

Paula Abdul - Straight Up

Year: 1988



Even if my own interest in dance is close to zero, I have to admit that Paula Abdul (responsible for the choreography of several Michael Jackson videos) really put this artform on the map for popular culture. This video features common stage dancing nowaday, but was something special at that time. Enjoy the frantic tap-dance intro!

Pop-quiz: On what show, currently on TV, does Paula appear?

Uhm...thanks Rodrigo for your answer, but I am afraid that "customized t-shirts" spam is not the correct answer to the question.
