The Visual 80's

   This week we learned about the 80's and the impact it had on society. I didn't realize the importance that MTV had on the decade. For artists, it was a way to spread they're music and gain popularity with music videos. Musicians would have interesting music videos or outfits to attract fans. For viewers, it was waiting for MTV to come on TV to get your new music. Now, our music can be streamed instantly, in the 80's there was an anticipated wait. You could see artist, and know what they looked like rather than listening on the radio. 
      We watched a countdown of songs and music videos in the 80's. I was shocked on how many of the songs I knew. I love how the songs still have a popularity or importance today. I often find myself listening to oldies like the ones on the countdown over some of the modern songs. I wonder if the music our generation listens to , will still be listened to after a few decades.
