Notable highlights for pop music in the 1980s are Michael Jackson's second Epic label release, Thriller, which went on to become the best-selling album of all time. Jackson was the most successful artist of the 80s, spanning nine #1 singles in the United States alone during that decade, and selling over 133 million copies with only two albums — Thriller, and its follow-up Bad. Since the early nineties, Jackson has been often referred to and regarded as the "King of Pop". Another dominant artist in the 1980s was Madonna. Billboard named her the top female act of the decade (and she was the second place act overall coming in behind Michael Jackson). Her success in the 1980s with #1 hits such as "Like a Virgin," "Papa Don't Preach," and "Like a Prayer" led to her eventual title as Queen of Pop and to her being awarded by MTV as Artist of the Decade. Prince also made a popular impact in the 1980s, and he was particularly adored by music critics. A large number of his albums and singles topped or held prominent positions on the yearly Village Voice Pazz and Jop Poll including albums 1999, Purple Rain, and Sign "o" the Times. Songs like "When Doves Cry" and "U Got the Look" were hits for Prince, as were songs he penned for others such as "Manic Monday" (performed by the Bangles) or "I Feel for You" (performed by Chaka Kahn). Other top-selling artists included Cher, Kim Wilde, Gloria Estefan, Paula Abdul, Tina Turner, Tiffany, Kylie Minogue, Janet Jackson, Olivia Newton-John, Duran Duran, The Go-Go's, Huey Lewis & The News, Katrina and the Waves, The Police, Kenny Rogers, James Ingram, Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, Tears for Fears, Rex Smith, Cyndi Lauper, Thompson Twins, Debbie Gibson, a-ha, Whitney Houston, Juice Newton, Richard Marx, Phil Collins, Air Supply, Laura Branigan, Talking Heads, Eurythmics, The Bangles, Hall & Oates, David Slater, George Michael (and Wham), Rick Springfield and Culture Club. The late 1980s saw the rise of the Swedish pop duo Roxette. Pop music in the 1980's was heavily influenced by an electronic sound with synthesizers and drum machines, and dance type music. Now in the present the 1980's is viewed as having many one-hit wonders (although the 90s have just as many), and the style and fashion sense and "look" in the music videos has been influenced and has been brought back in present clothes and style.
