On this day August 24, 1985, "The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis and the News soared to the top of the charts, becoming the #1 song in America. This hit single dominated the airwaves from August 24 to September 6, and its popularity wasn't limited to the U.S.—it also reached #1 in Canada, Australia, and Japan.

As the theme song for the iconic 1985 film Back to the Future, "The Power of Love" became an anthem of the era, perfectly capturing the energy and excitement of the movie and the decade.
