"1985" is a song that was written and recorded by American pop-punk band SR-71 for their album Here We Go Again. Mitch Allan, SR-71's frontman, gave the song to pop-punk band Bowling for Soup, who recorded a cover version that reached number 23 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and was included on the band's album A Hangover You Don't Deserve.
The song is about a middle-aged woman who is longing for her past and dwelling on her current mundane lifestyle while reflecting on how things have changed since the 1980s, specifically in music and pop culture.
