Acceptable in the 80's

About Acceptable in the 80's

"Acceptable in the 80s" is a 2007 song by electronic musician Calvin Harris. The video is about the style and culture of the 1980s. The music video features many references of the time; the stereotypical large hairstyles, bright dayglo colours and bizarrely, scientists dissecting what appears to be an otter, products of which are used by a hair stylist, TV chef, and to heal a grazed knee. The video is directed by Woof Wan-Bau. The song has been used to advertise the third series of Channel 4's The Paul O'Grady Show .
