Pretty in Pink: The Electric Sound of the '80's

I'm still not over the magic of Pretty in Pink. Here are some youtube videos of Psychedelic Furs' "Pretty in Pink" and Suzanne Vega's "Left of Center".

The first song was reportedly John Hughes inspiration for the movie. He wrote the script of the movie for Molly Ringwald. It couldn't have been played better by any other actress. Her acting is fluid, charming and very natural.

The second song, "Left of Center", was written for the movie by Suzanne Vega ("Luka"). The sound is very contemporary, as one viewer commented, and I couldn't agree more.

I couldn't find a youtube video of "Wouldn't It be Good?" performed by Danny Hutton Hitters. I loved how that song segued the scene from Andie's school to the street leading to the record store where she worked.

Here's the amazon.com music sample. Click here to listen.

Hope fans of Pretty in Pink and new recruits will enjoy these videos.
