What I remember about 1985 were the many iconic films, such as Back to the Future, and The Breakfast Club. Both films produced memorable songs: Simple Minds' Don't You and Huey Lewis and the News' Power of Love.
Miami Vice, the popular TV show, had a significant influence in music and fashion. Sinéad O'Connor, Kate Bush, Phil Collins, Bryan Adams, Tina Turner, Power Station, and Willy Nelson contributed their music to the show. The Italian men's fashion of a sports coat, t-shirt, white linen pants, loafers, and the five o'clock shadow was popularized by the show's two main characters, Crockett and Tubbs.
