Flashback Friday: Back to the 80s
Music is a culture all on its own. In fact, it's like a language. If we stop using it, it will disappear and be forgotten.
If you grew up in the 80s, chances are these songs were the background music to your life.
- Bon Jovi – Livin’ on a prayer
This song has become the band’s signature song, topping fan-voted lists and re-charting around the world decades after its release.
- Queen and David Bowie – Under pressure
This song was played live at every Queen concert from 1981 until the end of Queen’s touring career in 1986.
- Guns N Roses – Sweet child O’ mine
This chart topping song is still played on many radio stations today.
- Madonna – Like a prayer
A choir provides background vocals that heighten the song’s spiritual nature, and a rock guitar keeps the music dark and mysterious.
- Europe – Final countdown
One of the most memorable performances of the song took place in Stockholm, Sweden on December 31, 1999, as part of the Millennium celebrations.
