Synopsis

To the world, 80s music was a cultural phenomenon. For Generation X, it was also a personal one. The impact of 80s music on our culture is undisputed. It influenced the fashion, entertainment and politics of the time and since. For Generation X-those who came of age during the decade-the effect of 80s music was more personal. From hit tracks to B-sides, the music we curated from our radios onto well-worn cassettes changed us. They led us on journeys of self-discovery and shaped our expectations of the future. And today, the songs of that musical era still provide meaning as Generation X navigates midlife. Life Goes On: The Lessons We Learned From Eighties Music is a collection of narrative essays from 16 members from a cross section of Generation X who experienced the 1980s who share how those songs paved the way for our lives today and look back at the transformative nature of one of the most influential decades in America's history. Inspired by John Mellencamp's 1982 hit single "Jack and Diane," Life Goes On: The Lessons We Learned From Eighties Music, is a book filled with a collection of the life lessons we learned from 80s songs. Within these pages, members of the latchkey generation share how a particular 80s track formed a tenet of their philosophy-and how it continues to guide them today. So, slip on your headphones as we press play on the incredible decade of music that helped make us who we are.
