“Music defined the decade. “Video Killed the Radio Star” ushered in MTV, “Don’t You (Forget about Me)” ruled The Breakfast Club, and “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” became the anthem for a generation. However, it wasn’t just about the music, it was also about the art of the music. What we saw was nearly as important as what we listened to, and decades later the images of the ‘80s continue to dominate our culture.”
