drift back forty years and think about all the incredible songs that were making the charts in 1985. A mixtape with the best tracks of that fabulous year, many are still played a lot to this day. I know that many people readying this were not born then or were very young, but it is a nice trip down memory lane for those who were around – or, like me, were very small but heard these songs later. If you want a glimpse into which tracks were getting a lot of love back in 1985, then you need to check this assortment out. Including classics from a Pop queen, legendary bands and iconic solo artists, it is a wonderful cocktail of sounds. A simply wonderful time for music, it has been great researching the songs that were in the Billboard chart back then.
