While growing up, I spent countless hours engrossed in MTV, indulging in a can of Pringles and sipping on Fresca. Those days of binge-watching could easily be described as “never leaving the couch.” As a child, I absorbed music videos without questioning their narratives—why one member of a famous band seemed out of place or why another artist danced in unusual settings didn’t cross my mind. However, with three decades of hindsight, there are some intriguing aspects worth discussing. Here are 13 thoughtful inquiries regarding iconic ’80s music videos.

1. Madonna, ‘Papa Don’t Preach’
   What motivated her to engage with that charming young man who caused her unexpected pregnancy?
2. Bananarama, ‘Venus’
   Where can I acquire those stylish jeans? I believe I could totally pull off that look today.
3. Culture Club, ‘Karma Chameleon’
   What is Boy George doing navigating a riverboat in 1870? How does a riverboat gambler connect to the vibrant colors red, gold, and green?
4. Pet Shop Boys, ‘West End Girls’
   Why does the other Pet Shop Boy appear to have no role in this video? I like to imagine he’s internally asking, “Is it my turn to shine yet?”
5. Cyndi Lauper, ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’
   Did anyone in the ’80s have a wardrobe as fabulous as Cyndi Lauper? That pink dress? I would still wear it now.
6. Richard Marx, ‘Right Here Waiting’
   This is perplexing. What exactly is he implying? He’s not “right here waiting” for anyone, as he’s on an international tour, surrounded by fans. Is this a testament to Richard Marx’s self-admiration? Yet, despite this, the song brings back memories of my 10th-grade days.
7. A-ha, ‘Take On Me’
   Why does the waitress crumpling the comic book trigger the return of the antagonists?
8. Survivor, ‘Eye of the Tiger’
   What’s with their anger? They’re on their way to band practice, after all.
9. Men at Work, ‘Down Under’
   Are they sufficiently protected from the sun?
10. Irene Cara, ‘Flashdance…What a Feeling’
    Is it too late for me to pick up a welding skill?
11. Michael Jackson, ‘Thriller’
    This video is a classic, but why is it so lengthy? Can you believe we used to endure those first five to eight minutes without the luxury of fast-forward?
12. Rick Astley, ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’
    How many different outfits does he showcase throughout this video?
13. Starship, ‘We Built This City’
    Can you believe Grace Slick is now 75 years old?

These 13 questions barely scratch the surface! There are many more to explore, like “Sweet Child O’ Mine” or “Another One Bites the Dust.” I think it’s time to grab some Fresca and Pringles again!
