At first, Madonna's charm was that she
looked like everyone else, wore the same slutty gear and torn jeans you
might have seen anywhere in downtown (or way uptown) Manhattan and, if
she wasn’t fat, she looked like she was supposed to be. She was one of
us, back then. Cyndi Lauper, for a time, accomplished a similar feat:
her Queens accent and Betty Boop persona were calculated to intimidate
no one. Did nothing in popular culture do a betterjob of transcend ing
those dark days? Was there nothing going on besides the amassing of
large corporate fortunes and the floating of junk bonds?Well, there was
the gathering storm of the American
indie-rock
movement. It was in 1984, for example, that the Minutemen released
Double Nickles on the Dime and Husker Dü put out Zen Arcade and their
searing recording of Roger McGuinn’s “Eight Miles High.”An ineffable
something about these records seemed to repair the broken promise of
rock & roll. They grabbed you and demanded that you listen to, for
example, Bob Mould’s wailing at the end of “Eight Miles High,” which
histrionics suggested a last-chance attempt to rescue the enlightenment
of the mid- ‘60s (when the Byrds had first record ed the tune)—just as
they simultaneously doomed that idealism to the scrapheap of history.
