ntertoinment 1986 not only held many se- rious news stories such as terror- ism in Libya and the Challenger accident, but it was also a year with a lighter side of entertain- ment and trends. From music, to movies, to T.V. shows, to fash- ion, the U.S. showed a variety of tastes in 1986. Music in 1986 was vital and creative. Lines between pop, soul, rock, and even a little coun- try were crossed by many music groups to make last year one of the most unique in history. RUN D.M.C. illustrated this by mak- ing a top 10 soul hit out of Aero Smith's rock hit Walk This Wayf, We saw new faces hitting the charts like Bon Jovi, who fi- nally broke earth with their top ten hit You Give Love A Bad Name. Great Britian's dynam- ic group, Human League, showed us a new side with Human,,' while here in the States, Janet Jackson gave us her 541 album, Control, which contained four top ten hits for 1986. Golden Oldies showed us that they had long lasting ap- peal, with appearances on the charts by Ben E. King, with his classic Stand By Me, and the chartbuster by the Beatles, Twist and Shout? Music final- ly developed a conscience in 1986 with R.A.D. fRock Against Drugsj and the Amnes- ty Tour, headed by Sting, U2, Bryan Adams, and Peter Gab- riel. Movies were also a power- ful medium, as 1986 was one of the most profitable years in box office history. We flooded to theatres to see Tom Cruise fly to glory in Top Gun, the hysteri- cal one-liners in Eddie Murphy's HThe Golden Child. We cruised our way through the year with yellow Pirate On Boardv signs hang- ing from our car's infamous tint- ed windows. Fashions in 1986 were 214 . . . Mini Mag made up of a dash from the past and a taste of the future. Hoop earrings and fringe boots made a big hit on the girls' scene, while the guys looked great in their turtle necks and crew cuts. 0ur television was filled with the humor of The Cosby Show and Family Ties, fthe top two ratedj. We were intro- duced to Coca Cola's newest spokesman, Max Headroom, and said goodbye to such T.V. and movie greats as Cary Grant, Ted Knight, Donna Reed, Desi Arnez, Rock Hudson, James Cagney, and Scatman Cruthers. Entertainment in 1986 gave us a few laughs and a few tears. Trends in clothing and music gave us something to look for- ward to in 1987. 1986 was a year we won,t forget for a very long time. Q. le
