Today's song is from 1984. You would've found this one in the New Wave section of the record store. The song was produced by Shania Twain’s Ex, Mutt Lange, but the video is what everyone remembers most. It was one of the first to use computer graphics. The video features the band leader and model Susan Gallagher in a series of weird encounters. It was state of the art in in 84 but now something you could easily do on an iPhone.
It won big that year at the MTV Video Music Awards, beating both Michael Jackson’s Thriller and Herbie Hancock’s Rockit videos.
