50


Prince in concert

It was not so difficult to predict all the media attention around Madonna's birthday (today). More interesting was an article in my paper that mentioned Prince and Michael Jackson - who also celebrated their 50th birthday this summer. These were the three Megastars of the Eighties, surfing on the waves of the new MTV era.

I'm sure you can Google & Wiki all the details about this important episode in pop history.

Here are just some iconic tracks;
- Thriller (Michael Jackson, 1982) 90+ weeks in the top charts
- Like A Vigin (Madonna, 1984) 50+ weeks in the top charts
- Purple Rain (Prince, 1984) 30+ weeks in the top charts

Enjoy
