40 years ago this week, "Not Enough Love In The World" by #DonHenley entered the #Top40 at 40. It peaked at 34 on 27 Jul 1985. This is another music video directed by Timothy Hutton, though I liked it better than the video for "Drive" by The Cars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uyxku_gamBs #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo
40 years ago this week, "Sussudio" by #PhilCollins reached the top spot, replacing "Heaven" by #BryanAdams after two weeks. Collins said that Sussudio was a nonsense word he made up to match the rhythm he'd composed on a drum machine, and he planned to replace it later. Then he never found anything better. Sounds similar to the story of the "Sesame Street" theme lyrics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0qBaBb1Y-U #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo

40 years ago this week, "Would I Lie To You?" by #Eurythmics entered the #Top10 at 8. It peaked at 5 on 13 Jul 1985. It's too bad the #WILTY TV show couldn't afford this as a theme song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhpu2N4rQZM #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo
40 years ago this week, "Tired Of Being Blonde" by #CarlySimon entered the #Top100 at 84. It peaked at 70 on 20 Jul 1985. Believe it or not, this music video was directed by #JeremyIrons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKaaF757mIw #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo

Special event at the Powder House in #SomervilleMA today. One of the docents is a professional musician and researched the regional historical "shape note" music and had singers there today. It was fun to hear history in a new way. BostonSacredHarp.org #MusicHistory #Boston

40 years ago this week, "Heaven" by #BryanAdams reached the top spot, replacing "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" by #TearsForFears after 2 weeks. Although you see the Stanley theatre's sign in the video, the performance is in the Orpheum, a different theatre in Bryan's (and my) hometown of Vancouver. I guess they combined the prettier sign with the prettier interior. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6TtwR2Dbjg #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo
