1985 was packed with huge songs, and in this episode of
Pop Culture Yearbook, we take a trip through the year’s biggest hits with a series of artist spotlights. From Bryan Adams to Prince and Howard Jones to John Parr, we revisit the songs that made 1985 such an unforgettable year in music.
Then we turn the spotlight to John Mellencamp and his 1985 classic
Scarecrow. We talk about Mellencamp’s evolution as a songwriter, his small-town and working-class perspective, and the songs that helped make Scarecrow one of the defining albums of his career.
And because Mellencamp had way too many great songs to simply pick a favorite, we draft the best of his catalog. Fifteen songs go on the board and it's banger after banger right to the end!
