Trust me, "In Your Eyes" from the same album is even better. Absolutely beautiful, especially the live version from the Secret World Tour.

Peter Gabriel had to lay under a sheet of glass for 16 hours while the video was filmed a frame at a time. The video won 9 MTV Music Video Awards in 1987, which is the most any video has ever won. It was ranked #4 on MTV's "100 Greatest Music Videos Ever Made" at the end of 1999. The record was #1 in both the U.S. and Canada.

The entire "SO" CD from Peter is a gem.

This is one of the funkiest, sexiest, grooviest hits of the 80s. God dang it’s good.

Peter Gabriel has always been ahead of his time. Such a great artist.<br>The Secret World Tour DVD shows his incredible live talent.

Peter has a unique sense of humor. Going solo gave him the chance to make songs like this. He has such range. ‘Big Time’ is in a similar vein and also has a cool video. He could be fun or deeply serious.

"Shout" by Tears for Fears I think is another great example of great 80's sound.

Adam, thank you for sharing this with Alex!!! Peter Gabriel's album "So" was HUGE when I was in high school and is incredibly diverse and innovative. In contrast to the bombastic "Sledgehammer," the song "Mercy Street" from the same album is intricate and atmospheric and is my favorite PG song to this day.

"Addicted to Love" by Robert Palmer is another massively popular song from this era with an iconic video

The official video for this must have been an insane amount of work for everyone in involved. The song itself is very catchy.
