Why are we still so obsessed with the '80s? The music. The movies. The fashion. The unmistakable 80's aesthetic. Even people who never lived through the decade feel nostalgic for it. Part of that comes from how often the '80s have been mythologized. But it's also a decade with an instantly recognizable look and sound.
