Why 80′s Songs are Popular
The popularity of 80’s songs is largely attributed to the new developments introduced to the music industry during this era. One of these developments is the introduction of the MTV to the public. By combining video with the music of the artists, fans can much easier connect with the message of the song and can easily see their favorite artists performing it. Second, synthesizers were largely used to keep the quality of 80′s songs at a high level, with sound filters and additional sound effects. Lastly, a lot of new genres popped up during the decade, including metal, alternative, pop music, and indie rock, along with the increase in popularity of hip-hop.
