American Bandstand in the '80s




There are so many good memories of growing up in the '80s, and catching the latest hits on American Bandstand. Here are some wonderful retro-80s moments, courtesy of Youtube.


Above is the great Dick Clark interviewing Scottish singer Sheena Easton.




Here is a classic clip from 1984, featuring the A.B. crowd dancing to Spandau Ballet's "Only When You Leave," as well as some commentary from Dick Clark, and some '80s era commercials. This one really takes you back. The music, the styles, the commericals... all classic '80s.





And here's the group Animotion performing their big hit "Obsession" in 1985.
