“Hello? Yes, Business please. BIG … business.”
—Michael J. Fox
So, you want to know what it sounded like to be alive in December of 1985.
Maybe you were going to the mall to buy an oversized neon-green sweatshirt that said RELAX on it.
Perhaps you were loading into the minivan to go see Stallone take on the handsome Soviets in Rocky IV.
Maybe you were just a child, sitting on the floor drawing pictures of Voltron and the ‘Where’s the Beef?’ lady in markers that smelled like fruit and gave you cancer.
It was a magical time when a Gregory Hines ballet movie that literally no one remembers had a monster soundtrack that dominated the charts and it has those and all the hits from winter of 1985 in one grey-skyed playlist.
