... but there was Van Halen hit the mainstream with Jump

[Satan]

Don't know what show that was, but that last couple looked like they were a little old for a high school dance. They both looked at least 25.

[Nitro Express]

Not exactly Soul Train was it.

That first girl in the first video is Kelly Ripa from "Live with Regis and Kelly"...saw this somewhere a while back.

I think Olivia Newton John was 29 when she made Grease.

Michael J Fox was 23 in the first Back To The Future, a few years older than his dad George McFly.

I miss it when the basis of all video games were just racking up points. Nowadays you have video games that never end!

On the other hand, porn is a lot better nowadays!

I miss the simplicity of empty lot football games between the kids in the neighborhood. When is the last time you saw one of those? Now the kids just stay inside and play Xbox against each other online.

[Nitro Express]

I actually saw some kids throwing a football in the street the other day. It brought back memories. You don't see that hardly anymore.

[Sensible Shoes]

I think Olivia Newton John was 29 when she made Grease.

I thought she was well into her 30's. She never looked it and doesn't look her age now either.

[VHscraps]

Olivia Newton-John - yes, indeed.

I think she was 32 in this clip. Goddam.

[Seshmeister]

I thought she was well into her 30's. She never looked it and doesn't look her age now either.

Just checked and she was 29 when she made it.

That makes her 63 now which is just nuts.

As you say she looks good on it but 63?

When was this? 1986. Ah yes, the 80's, land of greed, fluorescent clothes and AIDS and check out those bedroom eyes the first couple make at each other.

Major Buzzkill strikes again.

And they all fit that 80's stereotype of popular kids that you loved to hate in high school - except the black couple of course who are there as tokens for the predominately white audience.
