The Library of Congress says Fleetwood Mac, Run D.M.C., and "Footloose" are all culturally significant
Finally acknowledging the multitude of lives and energy that have been wasted in our country’s endless war with those damn teenagers and their infectious, irrepressible dancing, the Library of Congress has decided to add Kenny Loggins’ “Footloose” to its list of culturally significant works. Loggins’ song—and its exhortations to kick off your Sunday shoes, no matter what John Lithgow might think—is one of 25 musical works that the Library added, as it does every year, to its National Recording Registry.
