John Hughes foi uma grande parte da cultura popular na década de 1980, explorando a cultura adolescente como poucos haviam feito antes com filmes como Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club e Ferris Bueller Day Off. As trilhas sonoras de seus filmes eram igualmente influentes, cheias de grupos new wave e alternativos, e foram a primeira exposição de muitas pessoas às Manobras Orquestrais no Escuro, New Order, The Smiths e Echo & the Bunnymen. Todos os quatro grupos tinham canções em Pretty in Pink, de 1986, que é indiscutivelmente o mais musical dos filmes de Hughes, já que recebeu o nome em homenagem a uma canção do Psychedelic Furs e o personagem de Molly Ringwald, Andie, trabalhava em uma loja de discos.

Pretty In Pink, a trilha sonora, é bastante estelar, apresentando "If You Leave" da OMD, que foi escrita especificamente para o filme e alcançou a 4ª posição na Billboard Hot 100, além de "Please Please Let Me Get What I Want" , Bring on the Dancing Horses de "Echo & The Bunnymen", "Shell-Shock" de New Order, "Left of Center" de Suzanne Vega, além de faixas de INXS, ex-guitarrista da Time Jesse Johnson e muito mais.

Enquanto esperamos que os shows e a turnê voltem ao normal, reunimos shows completos da maioria dos artistas na trilha sonora de Pretty in Pink, todos os shows dos anos 80, e apresentando a música que eles tinham na trilha sonora sempre que possível. Aproveite o cabelo, as ombreiras, os saxofones e as baterias eletrônicas e a dança no estilo de Molly Ringwald. Aproveite os links para o site do Brooklyn vega abaixo.

John Hughes was such a big part of popular culture in the 1980s, tapping into teen culture like few had done before with films like Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. The soundtracks to his films were just as influential, filled with new wave and alternative groups, and were many people's first exposure to Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark, New Order, The Smiths, and Echo & the Bunnymen. All four of those groups had songs in 1986's Pretty in Pink which is arguably the most musically minded of Hughes's films, as  It was named after a Psychedelic Furs' song and Molly Ringwald's character, Andie, worked in a record store.

Pretty In Pink, the soundtrack, is pretty stellar, featuring OMD's "If You Leave," which was written specifically for the film and hit #4 on the Billboard Hot 100, plus The Smiths' "Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want," Echo & The Bunnymen's "Bring on the Dancing Horses," New Order's "Shell-Shock," Suzanne Vega's "Left of Center," plus tracks from INXS, former Time guitarist Jesse Johnson, and more.

While we wait for concerts and touring to return to normal, we've pulled together full concerts from most of the artists on the Pretty in Pink soundtrack, all shows from the '80s, and featuring the song they had in the soundtrack whenever possible. Please enjoy the hair, the shoulderpads, the saxophones and drum machines, and Molly Ringwald-style dancing. Enjoy the links going to the Brooklyn vega website below.
