"80's Ladies" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist K. T. Oslin. It was released on April 24, 1987 as the second single and title track from Oslin's album 80's Ladies.[1] The song reached number 7 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart. It won Song of the Year at the 1988 CMA Awards.[2]
In 2024, Rolling Stone ranked the song at #114 on its 200 Greatest Country Songs of All Time ranking.[3]
A video for the song was released in 1988 and directed by Michael Merriman. The video starts off with a group of couples getting together and leaving, as Oslin's character tells her husband that she was going to stay the night at her friend's house, where she and a friend are watching old films on a projection screen and reminiscing about the past. The friends later drive to the cemetery, where it is revealed their longtime friend who was in the films had recently died and the couples at the start of the film were together for a memorial service.
