The Top 5 Songs THIS WEEK In 1987!
Rewind to the week ending June 27, 1987, with a Top 5 countdown featuring Atlantic Starr, Heart, Genesis,…
This is the music video lane inside Smells Like Gen X — chart countdowns, radio damage, one-hit weirdness, song rabbit holes, and the exact tracks that still own way too much of your internal hard drive.
Use this page when you want music-first nostalgia instead of pinballing around the broader video archive like a mall rat with no supervision.
Use these routes when you want your music damage narrowed by decade or by format.
Filter this topic through the 70s if you want the earlier, stranger, softer-lit version of the same cultural sickness.
Use the 80s route when you want the loudest, strongest, most chemically imbalanced version of this topic.
Use the 90s route when you want the afterglow version of this topic: a little glossier, a little more cynical, still deeply damaged.
Use the countdown lane when you want the list-driven version of this topic instead of free-roaming through the archive like a feral mall child.
Use the skit lane when you want the faster, stranger, more openly broken version of this topic.
Everything currently tagged into the Music video archive.
