1984 was an incredible year for music; the Brits made a 2nd invasion, Madonna and other ‘outsiders’ were taking shape, techno beats were in the air, and Michael and Price ruled the airwaves. What were the top tunes of 1984?

“Born in the U.S.A.” Bruce Springsteen
“Like A Virgin” Madonna
“The Boys of Summer” The Boys Of Summer
“Purple Rain” Prince & The Revolution
“Careless Whisper” Wham! featuring George Michael
“Dancing in the Dark” Bruce Springsteen
“Summer Of ’69” Bryan Adams
“I Want To Know What Love Is” Foreigner
“What’s Love Got To Do With It?” Tina Turner
“Pride (In The Name Of Love)” U2
“Take On Me” A-Ha

Conclusions: 1984 was an incredible year for stars that were in the early stages of superstardom. Prince, Madonna, and Tina ruled the airwaves, while Bruce, U2, Foreigner and Don Henley carried the rock and roll. How many are now in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Would you believe everyone except Foreigner, A-Ha, Bryan Adams, and Wham? Henley is in the hall by way of the Eagles, and Tina by way of Ike and Tina Turner.
