Great answers! Anyone remember "Withnail and I" and "Big Mouth Strikes again" by "The Smiths"?
Or does my memory of the 80's have a very British tinge?

Song: 'Take On Me' by A-ha. The video was unlike anything we'd ever seen before. It set a real precedent.
Film: 'ET'. The Speak & Spell machine was the ultimate in modern technology in terms of toys.
Ah, what memories!

Fast Times at Ridgemont High is THE classic 80s flick. It gives the best reflection of the music, the culture, and the general attitude of the time. It also features Phoebe Cates's red bikini scene which is said (tongue in cheek) to have "warped the minds of an entire generation of men!" :-)

Fast Times at Ridgemont High or Adventures in Babysitting, might be early 90s but those are two great early childhood flicks for me

I think that the breakfast club and pretty in pink...I used to be a huge Molly Ringwald(sp?) fan. I saw that movie the other day and made me remember that time because of the music and clothing styles.

Anything by Rod Steward or Led Zepplin or the Doobie Brothers takes me back to that era!

Pretty in Pink, it's just so 80's!! The clothes, the music, what a great era it was.
