I didn't watch it either, but I definitely had a pink blazer and all that 80s neon appeared in my high school wardrobe. That song was so different than everything else out there - it was the era of the music video and this electronica. Herbie Hancock's "Rock-It", Max Headroom, Dire Straits "Money For Nothing."

Thanks for the flashback, Rob!

It was an exciting time for music! I remember staying up late to watch Friday Night Videos hoping to catch Herbie Hancock’s video because my friends said it had robots in it 😆

The Miami Vice theme song is one of the most memorable, a sexy synth-heavy riff that defines the ‘80s ❤️
