DATED Countdown: “Voices Carry,” Axel F, Madonna Controversy & Animotion’s Double Hit Story

Coming up, we focus & rank a group of songs that depict a specific year in popular music so remarkably well, they sound exactly like the moment they came out. It’s our latest edition of DATED. Including singer Aimee Mann, who was kidnapped as a child, and after she was rescued, had to learn to speak again from the trauma. Her voice became a beacon to many on one of the most haunting songs of the year, Voices Carry. Plus, Axl F, a track created by highly sought-after composer Giorgio Moroder, that was dangerously close to getting axed by two of the most powerful producers in Hollywood, because he had failed to come up with a theme song for a future movie phenomenon... but a slip of his elbow on the keyboard jump-started a classic. Plus, the Madonna video shoot that almost went haywire as she was nearly attacked by a male lion because it was ‘her time of the month.’ And the 80s band Animotion that was a one-hit wonder twice. Once in 85 and then 3 years later with a whole new band with the same name! let’s do it.
