And the correct answers (in case you missed one or two) are:
1. Lionel Richie and Kenny Rogers teamed up for this single. Rogers’ harmony vocals helped the song blend soft rock with country pop. Quite the duo in 1983.
2. Aerosmith sang the theme for *Armageddon*, starring Tyler’s daughter, Liv. A family affair in blockbuster cinema.
3. Russell Young directed the visual for Louise’s solo debut. Known for simpler edits rather than Coppola-style complexity.
4. Boyzone found inspiration in the Bee Gees’ “Words.” Writing timeless classics since the ’60s, the Gibb brothers spawn many covers.
5. Amy Grant’s video was set in Idaho’s Craters of the Moon. Not your typical romantic destination, but visually compelling.
6. Ethan Hawke, moonlighting behind the camera, directed Lisa Loeb’s video. A multi-talented fellow indeed.
7. Michael Bolton’s B-side for his ’93 hit was “Soul Provider.” A hit itself, providing Bolton’s fans enough soul to go around.
8. Stéphane Sednaoui, known for striking imagery, directed Eagle-Eye Cherry’s video. The photographer utilizes vivid storytelling on screen.
9. Kim Wilde’s 1986 chart-topper reworked “You Keep Me Hangin’ On.” The Motown classic got a dance-pop makeover fit for the ’80s.
10. Jimmy Ruffin sang the first version of “What Becomes of the Brokenhearted.” A ’60s hit that never lost its heart.
11. Frankie Knuckles added flair to Lisa Stansfield’s “Change,” helping it soar on the dance charts. The Knuckles touch did its magic.
12. Francis Lawrence helmed the party in Lopez’s millennium-themed video. Marked a dance-pop sensation to usher in the 2000s.
