When MTV launched, high school kids spent afternoons watching music. VJ's told us about the next cool thing, and we tuned in to bands like Men at Work and Duran Duran. If you thought OK Go was strange, perhaps you should search "Men Without Hats..." or look at Devo's Whip It to see men with hats. Strange Hats.
In the early 80's, we "dance if we wanted to." Men had big hair and huge pants. There were Flocks of Seagulls. The Fix was in. The world was changing and our parents did not understand us then either.
See if you can figure us out.
The first project is to listen to Mark Wills song 19 Something (and/or find the lyrics.) Write a blog post including at least five of the historical references. Include the links or embed videos in your post. After this post, continue with your most recent Music Video Project.
