  • Proof that there was some sort of magic that existed in the 80s. There is no way they could get all of those superstars together today. There aren't even enough current musicians on that level in existence today.

Cindi Lauper was between Huey Lewis & I think Darryl Hall (poor girl) as he struggled to hit the notes. Watching Steve Perry's face was gold. There were a few performers that I question how they got where they got in life. After about 4 maybe 5 takes it was acceptable.

  • Madonna wasn't invited cause they thought her career wouldn''t last compared to Cindy Lauper & the media backlash to Madonna. Even La Toya Jackson and Sheila E. ended up in the video somehow. Quincy Jones thought Madonna was an absolute flash in the pan at the time, but admitted that her “career outlasted almost anyone’s in the room.” They were quickly proven completely wrong.
