This Week in 80’s History!

It’s time to take a look back at This Week in 80’s History! It was this week in the 1980’s that:

1981 – “Jessie’s Girl” by Rick Springfield was the #1 song in America

1983 – Tom Cruise slid into the spotlight as Risky Business premiered in theaters. In order to look younger for the roll, Tom Cruise worked out 7 days a week to lose 10 lbs, to then only eat fatty foods to gain a layer of “baby fat”.

1984 – Carl Lewis would win his 1st of 4 Gold Medals at the 1984 Summer Olympics.

1986 – One Crazy Summer, starring:  John Cusack, Demi Moore, Bobcat Goldthwait, and the lesser know Murray brother, Joel Murray. This movie would make my top 5 comedies from the decade one of my absolute favorites and really underrated in my opinion.

Nikki Sixx hoping to reach new fans with new video!

The upcoming horror film starring members of Motley Crue, Five Finger Death Punch and Papa Roach “The Retaliators “now has an official theme song and video, “The Retaliators Theme (21 Bullets).” Crue bassist Nikki Sixx said he hopes it will “stretch Motley Crue’s audience to new fans.”

The song is performed by Motley Crue with members of Asking Alexandria, Ice Nine Kills and From Ashes to New.
