Footloose bad

Old Gen-X adjective to describe a quality of music that makes it sound like something from the soundtrack of the movie "Footloose."

Distinguishing features are keyboard whitewashes, fist-pumpingly over-the-top vocals in the chorus, and unmanly bouncing rythyms. In other words, sounding '80s in the bad way.

(When Dan Hill's "I can dream about you" comes on the radio...)

"Oh, man, that's bad! It's... like... Footloose bad!"
