It’s hard to explain what made the ’80s such an iconic time period.
But the thing folks talk about the most is the sound of the ’80s—its music scene.Many considerthe nostalgia that ’80s music creates to be the strongest out there with numerous artists coming back to cover popular songs and sounds from the decade.

One commenterspeculated that the ’80s was a careless and fun decade. Considering modern day stresses imposed upon new generations, looking back to a decade whose fashion and music sound carefree, it becomes a nice escape for the younger generations.
There’s also theidea of having parents who listen a lot to ’80s music, instilling an interesting sense of nostalgia for their kids as well, even if they didn’t live through it.
Others speculatedthat it could just be history doing its cyclical thing again. Those who grew up in the ’80s are now becoming primary producers of pop culture. Considering all the ’80s franchise reboots, Stranger Things and the like, they all comefrompeople who grew up in that eraforthe people who grew up in that era.
But that’s just music. Think of the remaining part ofpop culture that happened back in the ’80s: the Master System, NES. and Atari 7800 all came out in the early part of the decade; Polaroid reached peak popularity during this time; shows like Full House, The Transformers and Duck Tales were huge back then; movies like Back To The Future debuted during the ’80s. The list goes on.
