Comment:

In an era that reinvented the rock ’n’ roll wheel, our [i]Video Era Study Guide[/i] simply couldn’t contain all the tracks that lit up our screens . . . and MTV’s request lines. A catchphrase, a T-shirt, a mini-movement: “FRANKIE SAY RELAX” exploded from hi-NRG clubgoers to propel the frankly [i]fabulous[/i]Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s scandalous “Relax” onto speakers and screens. The Beastie Boys did everything [i]but[/i] relax in “(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party),” welding fuzz-bomb guitar and an [i]Animal House[/i]-style on-screen food fight to a bad-kids-on-the-block image that rocked rap from the Bronx to Beverly Hills. And how do you compete with a landscape as vast as Scotland’s rocky highlands? Fuse it to Big Country’s soundscape for “In a Big Country,” awash in reverb-drenched, bagpipe-wail guitars and shooting-star vocal overdubs. From pan-flash phenoms like Nena and Wang Chung to new rock royalty like Tom Petty and Phil Collins, we’ve got the songs that made the whole world watch till the sun came up.
