The Eighties were an age of big hair, bigger snare drums and massive hits. Music videos gave rise to a flashy new class of pop stars, and left behind the baby boomers that weren’t fit enough to strut it on MTV. Meanwhile, the hit-packed soundtracks of pop-savvy flicks like Flashdance and Purple Rain kept pace with the escalating box office grosses of the summer movie season. Here are the biggest summer jams from ’80 to ’89, dictated by peak chart positions and total length of run on the Hot 100. We’ve also ignored all the non-summery adult contemporary ballads (our apologies to the likes of Richard Marx and Peter Cetera).

• This list shows all films released in 1980, including films that went direct-to-video, or only got an international theatrical release. For each film, we use the first date on which it was made available to the public, which might include international theatrical or domestic video releases that were.
• The following is an overview of events in 1980 in film, including the highest-grossing films, award ceremonies and festivals, a list of films released and notable deaths.
