This status has been in my head for a while, not just because this is a special year[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984] but this is indeed a special year:
- The name of a famous book by Murakami, 1984Q
- An Austrian band recorded a song name "Live Is Life", It was a European number-one hit in the summer of a year later. It has the same moto with "Pura Vida" in Puerto Rico.
