Press Rewind: Ranking the Greatest Songs of the 1980s
The 1980s gave us hit movies, iconic sports figures, classic TV shows, wild fashions and the rise of the music video. While fads came and went, one thing tied it all together: A constant supply of great music.

Press Rewind: Ranking the Greatest Songs of the 1980s compiles over 1,500 of the biggest tracks from the 1980s and ranks them according to a unique, comprehensive set of criteria. The result is one of the most complete and far-reaching critiques of 1980s music available anywhere. Totally radical, right?

It's more than just a critic's list of favorites. It's more than just a chart tabulated from sales figures or airplay data. Press Rewind considers each song's merits in a number of categories in order to provide a more accurate ranking of the songs that best defined the 1980s from a quality, style and pop culture perspective.

It's the perfect resource for finding new music for your playlists or just reminiscing about a time when synthesizers ruled, hip hop grew up, hair metal was king and new wave brought style and creativity to pop music.

Press Rewind is a must-have for any fan of 1980s music and pop culture, and an excellent starting point for anyone that missed out on this most gnarly of decades, and wants to catch up on what they missed.
