May 23, 1987: Bob Seger released “Shakedown,” the unexpected synth-rock banger from Beverly Hills Cop II.
It hit #1 in the U.S. and Canada and still sounds like a leather jacket with backup dancers.
Basically, Glenn Frey couldn’t make it—so Bob grabbed the wheel and floored it.

May 23, 1980: Olivia Newton-John released “Magic,” the most polite chart-topper of the year.
It wouldn’t hit #1 until August, but it floated in like a satin pillow and refused to leave.
Somehow from Xanadu—a movie best remembered for roller skates and regret.

May 22, 1980: Diana Ross dropped her 10th studio album, Diana, and casually reshaped pop music.
With “Upside Down” and “I’m Coming Out,” she turned disco into a full-body workout.

May 22, 1981: Toni Basil’s debut album Word of Mouth hits the shelves.
It only peaked at #22, but one cheerleader anthem made her a one-hit wonder.
Let’s be honest—without “Mickey,” this album would be filed under “Who?”

May 21, 1988: Cinderella released Long Cold Winter and went full blues-metal.
Yes, the band in eyeliner made a power ballad about heartbreak and managed to sell 3 million.
Turns out, “Don’t Know What You Got (Till It’s Gone)” hits harder with Aquanet.

May 21, 1982: Queen dropped Hot Space, the album that confused almost everyone.
Instead of rock anthems, we got synth-funk, leather pants, and a dance floor vibe.
It flopped—until we all admitted Freddie was 20 years ahead of us.

May 21, 1983: David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance” hits #1 in the U.S.
Nile Rodgers made it funky, Stevie Ray Vaughan made it scream, and Bowie made it fashion.
