47
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:20.519
here. I'm back to the eighties
radio expose and of course cover girls.
48
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:26.240
Oh show me show me you really
need me? Oh my goodness, Shang.
49
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:30.879
You gotta admit they just don't even
make dance music the way they used
50
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:33.720
to. Now I know, I
know, you're infatuated with all the dance
51
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.879
ladies. But you have got to
admit that this stuff was cool back then
52
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:45.879
and it is even relevant for now. You know what, my brother,
53
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.399
we've interviewed a member of Expose.
Yes, we did in that era,
54
00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:56.000
but it was all over it was. It had its own vibe. It
55
00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:01.960
brought people together, no matter sexuality, what ca. It was acceptable.
56
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:07.000
People could dress however the fuck they
wanted. Whoa whoa? Whoa they wanted?
57
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:11.240
Whoa? I'm sorry, Oh,
I'm sorry. Please excuse my French.
58
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:15.440
You know what I hate when I
get carried away in yes cut Okay,
59
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:18.919
anyway, there you go. Like
I was saying, yeah, although
60
00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:24.559
I was not a heavy listener in
a mini truck club or the Volkswagen Bug
61
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:31.960
Club, I cruised the buloarge my
brother and heard this louder than the metal
62
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.559
in my boom box right in my
Maverick. But yeah, I have to
63
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:41.360
say, yeah, it was.
It was. It was a great time.
64
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:43.840
All music was that music? Yeah, people, I dug it.
65
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:48.720
It was great. Hell yeah,
love it. It was. It's iconic.
66
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:52.559
Thus, saith the chang. If
you just joined us, we are
67
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:58.240
going to be discussing the relevancy of
eighties music and today, and how it
68
00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:01.600
is not only what it did in
the pass but what it continues to do
69
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:07.120
for the world of music. Eighties
music chang just defies the passage of time.
70
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:09.679
There was so much back then.
We may have thought, oh,
71
00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:13.840
it's a little bit weird, or
it's a little bit futuristic. And I
72
00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.600
remember songs like from the Buggles right
that we thought they were maybe a little
73
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.200
bit wacky, and they still resonate
today. I mean, how many bands
74
00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:26.799
of the eighties can you think of
that they still rock out today? You
75
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.120
were a heavy meddler, you still
are. How many of those songs can
76
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:35.399
you still listen to today and go, my goodness, this is better than
77
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:39.919
anything out there. Oh. I
think every time I pop something in my
78
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:46.519
phone, my headphones or wherever i'm
that, I'll pick something that is relevant
79
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:52.480
to the day that i'm that would
by I'm on and it always sounds better
80
00:11:54.440 --> 00:12:01.519
than I'd say sixty percent of what
I hear nowadays. Now, please hear
81
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:07.039
me out. I listen to a
lot of newer rock and newer blues,
82
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:11.279
a lot of newer music, but
I don't go hip hop because to me,
83
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:16.600
those cats aren't real. They're not
like old school, real hip hop
84
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:20.559
stuff. These guys are like a
bunch of pansy acids and they sound all
85
00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.159
the same. The eighties was a
defining era in music history. Some even
86
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:28.120
say that it was the last decade
for new music, you know what I
87
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:33.200
mean, for life altering music that
was just never there in the past.
88
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.360
Unlike today, we have new music. I mean, we got new music
89
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.080
every day that comes out from both
the popular performers, and we've got new
90
00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:46.919
music that comes from YouTubers, new
music that comes from people just living at
91
00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:52.120
home and recording at home. But
is it really that life changing music that
92
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.720
we've never had in the past and
it's making its debut for the very first
93
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:01.519
time. No, No, it's
just it's new for today. But it's
94
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.240
really nothing new under the sun.
Does that make sense? Yeah, it
95
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:07.840
does. But let me ask you
this. Would you agree if I said
96
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:16.679
music to this point in time has
been influenced a lot by the eighties,
97
00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:22.879
Because if you think about it,
that's oldies to like your kids, I
98
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.720
mean even my kids, you know, if they grew up on eighties music
99
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:28.960
with me and their mom. Wait
a second, so if it's oldies.
100
00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:33.799
What do you call our oldies?
To them, I would call it the
101
00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:39.279
fifties, sixties, seventies. So
they're not to the newer generation the crap
102
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:43.919
I listen to, it's ancient.
They can't grab the concept. How man.
103
00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:48.759
A lot of these kids nowadays,
they don't even know who the new
104
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:54.080
addition is, you know, they
don't know who new kids on the block
105
00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:56.919
are. Maybe they do from their
aunts and their uncles, you know,
106
00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:01.600
but they're like their parents are like
into the nineties, Tupac, Nirvana,
107
00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:07.840
Sound Garden, Pearl jan Here's what
gets me. So you know that that
108
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:13.120
famous phrase that a lot of people
like to snap at us who are Gen
109
00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:16.919
xers, And it's when they say, oh, well you're you're telling us
110
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:22.000
what we what you told your parents. And it's got some truth, but
111
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:26.879
in a big way. No,
Because the way I see it, this
112
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:31.679
newer generation, the generation, the
brand new Millenia, sorry not millennials,
113
00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:35.240
but the brand new gen Zers,
all right, the ones that are just
114
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:43.000
beginning. We're talking little little kids
in high school and even in junior high.
115
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:48.600
To them, old music is six
months ago. While I understand what
116
00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:54.720
they mean, I don't get why
they're parents that's the millennials and even their
117
00:14:54.799 --> 00:15:00.120
parents, which are us the gen
xers. What the hell happen? And
118
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.960
there that we never taught these people, these kids about music. Why do
119
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:09.080
we just let them go? You
know what, just just stick to whatever
120
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.120
you hear and whatever is out right? Now? What they never played their
121
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:18.200
music at home? What hell's wrong? You know what? You could blame
122
00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:24.799
it on so many different things.
Single parents is more of the norm.
123
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:31.759
Uh, you know, the term
latch key kids is right there in the
124
00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:41.279
scenario. Kids hooked on technology,
phones, devices, games, no time
125
00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:46.600
to listen to music. Radio pretty
much is past tense. You're pretty much
126
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:50.639
lucky if you have a badass system
in your pad growing up nowadays, and
127
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:58.080
your parents are somewhat cultured buy music, whether it's vinyl, c D,
128
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:06.200
even acause even if they crank on
terrestrial radio, which if we're talking about
129
00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:11.000
that sucks ass. They give you
what's pretty polished, pampered, and it's
130
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:15.039
all the same. It's all the
same. It's like there's only one genre.
131
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:17.080
We talked about it in the beginning
of the show. It's like we
132
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:21.440
only have one genre now, and
it's it's rap, and it's not even
133
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:27.159
you know, it's it's some aberration, some weird manifestation from another realm that
134
00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:33.320
just doesn't sound like anything that I
could have ever imagined that rap was going
135
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:37.759
to even turn into even rappers,
millennial rappers. Over what the hell is
136
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.000
going on with with the music?
It's it's anyway. So that's a different
137
00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:48.759
subject. But several key factors contribute
to eighties music being relevant today, and
138
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:51.720
I want us to touch on some
of those factors. What do you think
139
00:16:51.759 --> 00:16:56.720
are some of the factors that keep
eighties music fresh in spite of it being
140
00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:00.120
what forty years old, thirty years
old? I think some of the factors
141
00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:07.279
are commercials, TV shows that are
on bringing back the eighties. A lot
142
00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:14.319
of commercials are showing you new stuff
to buy with eighties music. Queen's big
143
00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:19.119
on that. A lot of artists
are cashing in on getting their music played
144
00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:26.519
to the more pop younger audience brings
in the bucks. Not only that,
145
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:32.759
but subconsciously maybe turning to kids onto
a different vibe. You go to a
146
00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:38.440
concert, any type of concert,
the speakers cranking are something of the past,
147
00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:41.920
you know what I mean? Yeah, people in their home they don't
148
00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:45.440
even have loud stereo systems. Anymore. It's like they only know about their
149
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:52.240
earbuts, and they only know about
their little robot devices at home like alex
150
00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:55.599
Sign, Google and stuff like that. Aside from that, they don't know
151
00:17:55.640 --> 00:18:00.279
what it is to have this.
I used to have a Fisher Stereo SYSM
152
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:03.799
with the big fifteen inch woofers.
That thing cranked. They don't know about
153
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:08.359
that stuff anymore. No, dude, they don't know about the pioneer systems.
154
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:12.440
You know, you shook the whole
pad back then. It's crazy because
155
00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:18.359
like we saw sound come out of
cars where like it shakes your whole car.
156
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:23.880
You could hear every problem in somebody's
car when they're cranking their stuff and
157
00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:29.359
it's got way too much base.
You can't do that in your earbuds.
158
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:33.000
I just think kids lost touch completely. Some kids connect, you know,
159
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:37.960
if you're lucking like my grandkids when
they were in my ride, you know
160
00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:41.720
what they're listening to. Yeah,
but I didn't crank on the metal.
161
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.279
I played a lot of different stuff. I'll never forget. Last summer,
162
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:48.480
I was rolling down the street with
my grandkids up here and my eight year
163
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:53.160
old nephew Ryan. He's a pretty
trippy little cat. He's like mini me
164
00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:57.880
but a little kid, and I
was cranking on old rap and they were
165
00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:02.400
tripping on that. Know what,
dude, both of them, my grandson
166
00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:10.839
and my granddaughter downloaded that stuff,
right. So I think when kids can
167
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:15.640
groove with something and they see that
you're grooving with it, they'll give it
168
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:18.400
a chance because you kind of meet
right there at the fine line. But
169
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:22.440
you have to kind of give your
kids and your grandkids that touched that feel
170
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:30.319
like your kid. He's what seventeen? Yeah, eighteen, dude? What
171
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:37.559
he jams? He's a master.
He He's incredible, and he plays music
172
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:42.839
that I know you really didn't favor
when you were his age, right,
173
00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:47.720
but I do now you know what
I mean, and you've turned it onto
174
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:52.160
him. He's got an incredible insight, picked it up like magic. And
175
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:56.960
that's because you need more music of
his on my own segments. Yeah,
176
00:19:56.039 --> 00:20:00.720
And that's because as a parent,
I just decided to introduce that music to
177
00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:04.160
them. I never told them,
don't listen to new music. They know
178
00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:11.559
what new music's like. But I
introduced them to eighties music, seventies music,
179
00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:17.319
sixties musics, fifties music, and
they prefer that, and they themselves
180
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:22.799
tell me as we're going to continue
talking about here the influence of eighties music
181
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:26.119
and how it's still relevant today.
What are some of those factors. Is
182
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:30.480
the genre diversity that we had back
then. Look, we had so much
183
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:34.200
diversity in genres of music, from
pop to rock, new wave, hip
184
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:40.960
hop, synthpop, metal, glam, hair, indie, etc. R
185
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:45.200
and b rap. We had so
much diversity. It appealed to an incredible
186
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:49.440
spectrum of listeners. And we had
all the radio stations. It was like
187
00:20:49.559 --> 00:20:53.720
thirty one flavors. Remember that we
had so many radio stations. Just like
188
00:20:53.880 --> 00:21:00.559
genre diversity, Radio was another factor. Unfortunately, radio is dead as it
189
00:21:00.680 --> 00:21:08.440
once was, so radio stop being
that key factor to contribute to the continued
190
00:21:08.519 --> 00:21:12.640
popularity of eighties music today because it
just doesn't. Now you go and you
191
00:21:12.759 --> 00:21:18.799
have to literally look for one station
that plays eighties music. Oh yeah,
192
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:25.799
I totally agree with you. I
think the death of terrestrial radio is pretty
193
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:30.720
much ninety percent to blame. Why
music of the past is not played,
194
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:37.400
Why music that is preferred that is
not played, Music that is going to
195
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:42.240
open people's minds, make them feel
good, unify, get through their day,
196
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:48.720
positive, take everybody in a different
realm when when somebody thinks nothing but
197
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:53.559
positive, you're in a great mood. You're motivated to go kick ass.
198
00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:59.759
Right. That's why I've always thought
morning radio growing up always motivated me.
199
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:04.039
You know. I listened to ka
Et Kalos as a teenager to go to
200
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:07.240
high school, Boom kick ass.
The whole day was going to be a
201
00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:12.640
cakewalk. As I got out of
school and I had to go to go
202
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:18.240
to work every morning, on the
way to work, Boom Mark and Briant
203
00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:22.200
Klos. You know, it kept
me motivated. It kept me going and
204
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:29.720
into my father years, even into
now now that I'm not in southern California,
205
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:34.599
I look to the radio stations here
in central California to give me a
206
00:22:34.680 --> 00:22:37.920
kick in the ass. Heck,
I have an app on my phone.
207
00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:44.039
I can listen to the type of
music or the type of radio show I
208
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:51.279
prefer anywhere around the United States,
And to me, that is awesome.
209
00:22:51.359 --> 00:22:56.640
It gives us the ability to reach
out and unify a somewhere, even if
210
00:22:56.680 --> 00:23:02.799
we're not right next to each other. We've lost that, you know.
211
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.680
Some of the radio stations that were
the reason for the continuance of eighties music
212
00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:12.519
are still around today. Some of
them are not, but stations like Z
213
00:23:12.720 --> 00:23:17.880
one hundred in New York, Kiss
FM in Los Angeles, Power one oh
214
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:21.160
six, the different Power one oh
sixes and Kiss FM's around the country,
215
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:26.640
KARS one oh one K Day here
in Los Angeles. Yeah, you know
216
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:32.200
what I mean, BBC Radio one
in London, in England, wherever you
217
00:23:32.359 --> 00:23:37.559
are around the world, you had
stations that will promulgate the eighties music,
218
00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:42.000
and even up to today, some
of those still do. Unfortunately, here
219
00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:45.400
in the United States, none of
the ones I mentioned to you play eighties
220
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:53.119
music, so radio I discount as
being one that that still shares eighties music
221
00:23:53.599 --> 00:24:00.880
to keep it alive. However,
just like you said of guarding commercials,
222
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:08.519
I'm going to tell you that I
believe that another factor was the ginormous roster
223
00:24:10.359 --> 00:24:15.359
of legendary artists that we had in
the eighties. That was one of the
224
00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:21.359
biggest reasons why it was so ahead
of its time and so relevant today because
225
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:26.960
the majority of those artists, or
I should say a good portion of those
226
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:33.279
artists from back then, they're still
around. They're still touring a lot of
227
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:37.240
them, and I'm talking about what
I'm talking about, the ones who can
228
00:24:37.359 --> 00:24:40.240
still singing. Okay, I'm not
talking about the ones who can or they're
229
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:44.640
just not willing to give up.
I'm still saying there's a lot of artists
230
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:52.079
from the eighties, actually even before
from the seventies that are still They're part
231
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:56.960
of the reason why eighties music hasn't
died yet. Berlin is out there touring
232
00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:00.599
right now. You know what,
as a matter of fact, let's take
233
00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:06.359
a break. Right here, you
are listening to back to the eighties radio
234
00:25:06.440 --> 00:25:14.599
with to Scotwin Chang, and here
is something from Berlin. I'm done,
235
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:26.039
my class. My whole walls follow
me. I was in the parist,
236
00:25:27.640 --> 00:25:33.440
I budged in Monday Brand and you
were waiting now swimming to Apolo Chase.
237
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:45.960
I remember such bathing word, I
was coming you my shang don mind.
238
00:25:48.880 --> 00:26:12.920
I remember comeless sleeping next day,
riding on a lad spin against to mine,
239
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:25.759
so spoken with the tennis, plants, spas show words, gives a
240
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:30.000
pastep. Still love her, oh, I can say it down, smiling
241
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:40.160
as a plan. I remember the
little rain all in my hand. I
242
00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:52.079
love you always with my eyes.
I remember me say, riding on the
243
00:26:52.880 --> 00:27:33.720
track, I wer feeling ping of
a thing so sad. I remember my
244
00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:59.279
hating you for love, baby,
riding on the metrom my from in class
245
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:07.720
by four grons. But I do
my past. I was on the Paris
246
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:15.119
trains. I ain't b stand that
rain, and you're away now swimming you
247
00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:25.319
a bylight chase. I remember Jack
ball up my back word. I was
248
00:28:25.400 --> 00:28:33.480
hoping you might change your mind.
I remember to sleeping next to me,
249
00:28:36.119 --> 00:29:10.599
riding on a metro like a creature
of the night, back to the eighties.
250

Welcome back to Back to the eighties radio.
266
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:10.400
It's an all chick vibration for all
of your sensation. That was the
267
00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:16.839
motels with a mission of mercy and
something from Berlin. Baby take that train.
268
00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:22.079
Oh man, I remember checking out
Berlin at my grad night. What
269
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:25.759
a bunk night. That was the
chick I took. I didn't get down
270
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:30.440
with. She looked like she liked
my buddy, my best buddy. Back
271
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:34.279
then the cant Well, that's got
hurt. Cant well, Catholic all boys
272
00:32:34.319 --> 00:32:37.559
school. Oh you didn't dig the
Chang station. She couldn't get on groove
273
00:32:37.640 --> 00:32:43.920
with a Chang station. Back there, the Chang station Berlin played, they
274
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:47.960
were badass, badass. You are
listening to Back to the eighties radio.
275
00:32:49.000 --> 00:32:52.599
Thanks for joining us. We are
talking about the relevancy of eighties music and
276
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:55.599
how it still appeals to listeners today. All you have to do to make
277
00:32:55.640 --> 00:33:00.480
somebody else like it is just introduced
them to eighties music. Play it at
278
00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:04.079
home, play it in the car, play it wherever you can. But
279
00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:08.960
introduced to them the legendary artists of
the eighties. So we were talking about
280
00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:15.319
some of the factors that contributed to
the continued popularity of eighties music, and
281
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:22.359
let's mention some more. How about
chart topping hits. The amount of hits
282
00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:30.000
every single month in the nineteen eighties
was just unreal. Any month from the
283
00:33:30.119 --> 00:33:35.759
eighties that you looked at any year
and there were just hit after hit after
284
00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:38.559
hit after hit. We just don't
have that now, Yeah we don't.
285
00:33:38.599 --> 00:33:42.960
But you know what, we could
blame a radio for that. You know
286
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:45.960
what, dude, Everything is pre
recorded, man, Everything is already pre
287
00:33:46.160 --> 00:33:53.240
programmed. It's already like radio feeds
off what kids download. They go by
288
00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:59.400
that vibe. You know what YouTube
numbers look like. You know, they
289
00:33:59.480 --> 00:34:05.160
play the app that it's going to
sound. Make you sound cool in the
290
00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:09.360
morning when you take your kids to
school, make you feel fresh and poppy.
291
00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:13.599
You know when you're on your way
to work. It's polish, it's
292
00:34:13.639 --> 00:34:16.360
crap, so right, right,
I mean, come on, brother,
293
00:34:16.679 --> 00:34:21.199
Yeah, And you're right. They
need old school radio, that's right.
294
00:34:21.320 --> 00:34:25.800
We need the entertainers to introduce those
songs to us. We need them choosing
295
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:30.199
also some of their favorite songs,
because a lot of what they chose was
296
00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:35.599
the influence. You know, there
were some dj some jocks weren't allowed to
297
00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:38.719
play something. They risked their job. A lot of these said, you
298
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:42.079
know what I'm gonna I'm gonna play
it. I'm gonna play it. Some
299
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:45.000
even got fired for playing the music. And guess what today, Now we
300
00:34:45.119 --> 00:34:51.079
have that music because that jock took
the chance, he risked it all and
301
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:54.079
he played some of those bands music
that would have never been heard otherwise if
302
00:34:54.119 --> 00:34:58.800
it was just left up to a
program director or a guy in a suit.
303
00:34:59.159 --> 00:35:04.800
Oh hello, b That's why we
don't see such personalities on the radio.
304
00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:08.800
You know, whoever listens to us, I thank you from the bottom
305
00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:14.920
of my black soul. And my
wife thanks you so she doesn't have to
306
00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:21.119
listen to me. Carry on because
I no longer can do stand up for
307
00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:27.199
I'm in the forest looking for sasquatching
that remain silent. Another one of those
308
00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:34.320
factors that continues to highlight eighties music
today is the influence on modern music.
309
00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:40.000
So eighties music influenced greatly what part
of modern music? Well, the use
310
00:35:40.079 --> 00:35:46.079
of synth and electronic sounds, sampling, remixes, the evolution of pop,
311
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:52.840
indie, alternative rock, grunge,
and alternative revivalist movements. You know,
312
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:59.760
the resurgence of eighties sounds in new
artists is incredible. TV shows, cartoons,
313
00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:06.000
anime have brought back a lot of
eighties pop culture and nostalgia. Heck,
314
00:36:06.159 --> 00:36:12.760
yeah, the Asian communities have kicked
ass with the remembering the eighties and
315
00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:17.079
cashing in on the nostalgia. I
mean, heck, some of their bands
316
00:36:17.880 --> 00:36:23.480
are are reminiscent of the eighties.
You know, every time an American band
317
00:36:23.639 --> 00:36:28.599
or a British band went over there, whether it be the eighties the nineties,
318
00:36:29.039 --> 00:36:31.159
they ate it up, they made
it their own, they gave it
319
00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:37.920
a popularity of its own kind.
So of course anime is I mean a
320
00:36:38.039 --> 00:36:44.920
lot of the anime looks like somebody
from the eighties, right, so exactly
321
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:50.840
exactly. Car commercials nowadays, bro, you cannot buy a car without hearing
322
00:36:50.960 --> 00:36:57.719
something that's in the rock mode of
the eighties Judas Priest Queen Bruce Springsteen.
323
00:36:57.920 --> 00:37:01.199
I mean it's it's out there,
so people are gravited by the horns.
324
00:37:01.639 --> 00:37:07.000
Now, another thing that contributes to
the continuance or the influence of eighties music
325
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:13.239
today is the revival of physical formats. When would we ever think that in
326
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:17.239
this day and age of everything that
streams, everything that gets downloaded, uploaded,
327
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:21.239
and everything's done through a phone or
a computer, when what do we
328
00:37:21.320 --> 00:37:23.840
think that there was going to be
a resurgence in interest of vinyl records,
329
00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:31.039
audio files, collectors seeking vintage eighties
releases. Why because they want to feel
330
00:37:31.119 --> 00:37:36.039
it, they want the nostalgic charm. When were we going to think that
331
00:37:36.079 --> 00:37:38.880
there was going to be a resurgence
in vinyl and cassette types? And you
332
00:37:39.000 --> 00:37:47.920
know what, I think maybe some
of the television shows. I think sometimes
333
00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:53.599
you know how you can download music, and you can get certain bands and
334
00:37:53.840 --> 00:38:00.800
artists that will go ahead and allow
a vinyl track that you listen to.
335
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:06.800
So I think maybe that those two
things might have something to do with it.
336
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:14.280
Maybe some people still holding onto their
systems, paulishing them up passing them
337
00:38:14.320 --> 00:38:17.320
along. Maybe kids. You know, the kids that grew up with that
338
00:38:17.679 --> 00:38:22.480
in their home are getting their own. I mean you yourself have purchased your
339
00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:30.079
own cassette player correct, oh yeah, and high level. Yeah. And
340
00:38:30.199 --> 00:38:36.599
I've got a whole sound system with
the sub wolfers and the whole nine yards.
341
00:38:36.840 --> 00:38:39.360
You know, all you have to
do is you go buy to a
342
00:38:39.519 --> 00:38:44.480
place. You know, we've got
several here in Orange County that that you
343
00:38:44.639 --> 00:38:47.719
go in. They've got a lot
of vintage stuff and go and buy it.
344
00:38:47.800 --> 00:38:52.039
It's not expensive. You don't have
to buy the top of the line
345
00:38:52.079 --> 00:38:54.880
from back then. You can buy
something that was medium and great, get
346
00:38:55.039 --> 00:39:00.800
great speakers, great amplifier, and
get a great look and feel and start
347
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:04.079
knowing this. You know. One
of the things that I like to do
348
00:39:04.679 --> 00:39:08.800
is I like to record entire albums
on cassette. And what do I do?
349
00:39:09.000 --> 00:39:13.039
So when we're cleaning the house or
we're just kicking back, you know,
350
00:39:13.239 --> 00:39:15.000
I'll tell my kids, go ahead
and look for one of the cassettes.
351
00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:19.559
I'll go, let's put in some
Toto and we'll listen to Site A
352
00:39:19.800 --> 00:39:25.519
and B of Toto Complete and my
boys go, oh, we never heard
353
00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:30.199
that song before. That's a great
song from Toto, you know, and
354
00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:34.679
just like that. We not only
do mixtapes, but we record entire albums.
355
00:39:34.719 --> 00:39:39.119
And I think that's one of the
things that contributes to to the possibility
356
00:39:39.159 --> 00:39:44.159
of getting kids to like eighties music. They just have to be introduced to
357
00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:46.199
it. Yeah, I agree with
you. You have to open their minds.
358
00:39:46.400 --> 00:39:50.920
We as an elder's parents, grandparents, whatever you want to get called
359
00:39:51.440 --> 00:39:54.199
the youth look at it's like,
wow, you're as old as like dust
360
00:39:54.360 --> 00:40:00.320
on my headboard or like the booger
on the side of my bad So you
361
00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:04.239
have to enlighten them with the music. You know what this kind of Let's
362
00:40:04.280 --> 00:40:07.760
take another break and enlighten the audience, take them back down memory lane and
363
00:40:07.880 --> 00:40:12.480
maybe the kids out right open up
to your ears. We got some more
364
00:40:12.679 --> 00:40:19.800
chick music right here at Back to
the Eighties Radio with Toscano and Chang something
365

400
00:48:24.719 --> 00:48:30.079
to the eighties radio with Tascano and
Chang, a little bit of Pat Benattar
401
00:48:30.199 --> 00:48:32.840
and hell for all you little children, you brats, and boy, if
402
00:48:32.880 --> 00:48:36.360
you ever crossed me, I'm gonna
pull out of some brass out of my
403
00:48:36.480 --> 00:48:40.320
pocket and hit you over the nugget. The pretenders bringing it hard and heavy
404
00:48:40.719 --> 00:48:46.880
to back to the eighties radio on
an all chick music vibration. To tickle
405
00:48:46.960 --> 00:48:55.920
your sensation, Tascano brry on with
the conversation, you pretender, not like
406
00:48:57.199 --> 00:49:00.039
no hater y that you are.
Yes, because we were talking about that.
407
00:49:00.119 --> 00:49:05.639
I am deep down a hater of
some eighties music, and I want
408
00:49:05.679 --> 00:49:08.719
to say yes, yes, Well
we are all up a little bit,
409
00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:15.760
we all are in some stance.
But yeah, when it comes to some
410
00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:19.320
music, I just it just never
grew on me, you know. But
411
00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:22.280
it is what it is. It's
look, it's eighties music, and anything
412
00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:30.519
from the eighties is better than today
period. You realize a possible terrestrial radio
413
00:49:30.639 --> 00:49:36.320
station could be listening, yeah,
and just picked up on your keen displeasure
414
00:49:36.559 --> 00:49:40.639
with certain types of music. That's
where I the Chang. Yeah, well
415
00:49:42.360 --> 00:49:51.159
add my stupidity, No, wow, I love oh music. I didn't
416
00:49:51.280 --> 00:49:54.400
hate any music, all of it
all, unless it has nothing to do
417
00:49:54.519 --> 00:49:58.320
with metal. If we were to
get that phone call, would you be
418
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:00.960
willing to do country music? I
don't know, man, that's a hard
419
00:50:01.079 --> 00:50:05.760
call. Country music. It's just, you know, it's one of those
420
00:50:05.800 --> 00:50:08.920
things that for some outball reason.
When I was ten years old, I
421
00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:13.800
used to love country music. I
used to watch the Country Music Music Awards
422
00:50:13.880 --> 00:50:21.079
with Alabama and the Oakridge Boys winning
all the time and America. So yeah,
423
00:50:21.159 --> 00:50:22.599
I used to like it. But
somewhere down the line, after I
424
00:50:24.039 --> 00:50:28.239
I guess I was a teen,
I no longer listened to country music,
425
00:50:28.320 --> 00:50:30.920
and it changed forever, by the
way, and yes, it's no longer
426
00:50:31.000 --> 00:50:36.679
the same. No, it isn't. And you know what, I'm sure
427
00:50:36.800 --> 00:50:40.480
some of our listeners are going Tiscono
and Chang. You're intriguing, but yet
428
00:50:40.760 --> 00:50:45.800
you never pay homage to country music. That's right? Are you haters yes?
429
00:50:46.039 --> 00:50:51.199
Uneducated? Yes? Or do you? Neither one of you drive trucks?
430
00:50:51.679 --> 00:50:55.079
Both been related by a woman drink
heavily. Why don't you play country
431
00:50:55.159 --> 00:51:02.360
music? I'm sure that is a
question amongst every mountaineer. Yeah or countriesman,
432
00:51:02.639 --> 00:51:07.519
Wow, whoever listened to our show. I like what you said about
433
00:51:07.519 --> 00:51:09.480
them in chickens. Yeah, that's
nice. Well I've got two out of
434
00:51:09.519 --> 00:51:15.719
ten out of those I said plucking
chickens. Whatever is on your edit machine
435
00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:22.320
is incorrect. Keep in mind as
you're listening today that eighties music remains vibrant,
436
00:51:22.920 --> 00:51:28.920
it remains relevant today as it was
always, and it's cherished. It's
437
00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:34.880
more than loved and adored by those
who experienced and embraced it. It is
438
00:51:35.639 --> 00:51:42.119
sustained as life changing, life altering
music that will never die. The nineteen
439
00:51:42.239 --> 00:51:46.880
eighties, Ladies and Gentlemen, stands
as a defining era in music history because
440
00:51:46.960 --> 00:51:55.039
after that music was to change forever, whether a good or bad in your
441
00:51:55.400 --> 00:52:01.480
opinion, who knows. In my
opinion it changed for the worst. But
442
00:52:01.719 --> 00:52:07.719
I can still tell you that luckily
we have all the eighties music at our

00:52:07.760 --> 00:52:14.400

487
01:01:39.320 --> 01:01:44.360
you who are listening at home?
Who are listening at the gym, in
488
01:01:44.440 --> 01:01:47.280
the car, or just having a
walk, or in your bedroom or just
489
01:01:47.480 --> 01:01:53.239
wherever you are? The nineteen eighties
stands for what? What does the eighties
490
01:01:54.039 --> 01:01:59.679
music era of the eighties stand for
you? Chang? What does it stand
491
01:01:59.760 --> 01:02:05.800
for you? What does music from
the nineteen eighties mean to you? You
492
01:02:05.960 --> 01:02:14.440
know what? First and foremost,
Eighties music pretty much is the soundtrack to
493
01:02:14.639 --> 01:02:20.800
the motion picture of the life I
lived in my memories. If I could
494
01:02:20.920 --> 01:02:25.880
write a movie and put all my
memories on it as they correspond from then
495
01:02:27.079 --> 01:02:32.719
till now, the eighties music would
be the soundtrack like a whole movie.
496
01:02:34.559 --> 01:02:39.119
Watching it at your pad reel to
reel or when they brought cam quarter out.
497
01:02:39.440 --> 01:02:45.199
Eighties music would be probably most of
my entire life up until now.
498
01:02:45.679 --> 01:02:51.199
But yet I still rock the eighties
music. If you can dig my vibe.
499
01:02:51.239 --> 01:02:57.199
What would the eighties music of the
eighties all that you listened to?
500
01:02:57.360 --> 01:03:01.559
Tascannell? What did it do for
you? What do you think of when
501
01:03:01.599 --> 01:03:07.639
you hear it or you talk about
it? Ah, I would say if
502
01:03:07.639 --> 01:03:12.639
I could just say one word about
eighties music, just like the era of
503
01:03:12.719 --> 01:03:17.519
the eighties, it reminds me of
freedom, freedom, being a free spirit,
504
01:03:17.840 --> 01:03:24.960
being a free kid growing up living
in a much simpler time with all
505
01:03:25.039 --> 01:03:31.719
the hustle and bustle of our modern
world where life moves so fast and every
506
01:03:31.840 --> 01:03:38.639
day everything leaving behind what was in
fashioned, what was in fashion yesterday.
507
01:03:39.280 --> 01:03:46.079
The nineteen eighties to me was freedom, freedom of the power of music to
508
01:03:46.199 --> 01:03:51.880
connect with, to be inspired and
to heal with. Eighties music, to
509
01:03:52.000 --> 01:03:57.119
me helps me connect not only to
my past but to my present and helps
510
01:03:57.199 --> 01:04:01.719
me get inspired, and it helps
me be healed of a lot of crap
511
01:04:02.000 --> 01:04:08.880
that my life endured and that it
continues to endure at times. So that's
512
01:04:08.920 --> 01:04:13.639
what the eighties and the music of
the eighties means to me, everybody out

social media and tell us what eighties music

01:04:27.599 --> 01:04:30.840

553
01:10:58.640 --> 01:12:15.279
turns the same to you. So
you're listening to the one and only back
554
01:12:15.479 --> 01:12:21.000
to the eighties radio. We were
reflecting on the magic of this unforgettable decade
555
01:12:21.039 --> 01:12:26.640
of music, the nineteen eighties,
where music isn't just a relic of the
556
01:12:26.840 --> 01:12:32.920
past. It's a timeless companion that
continues to inspire new generation. Its beats
557
01:12:33.079 --> 01:12:38.760
still echo in the music of today, its spirit lives on in the hearts
558
01:12:39.119 --> 01:12:43.239
of artists, and its melodies offer
us a refuge from the chaos of our
559
01:12:43.319 --> 01:12:45.840
time. So, whether you're a
child of the eighties or not, a
560
01:12:45.039 --> 01:12:49.720
music enthusiasts discovering these tunes for the
very first time, or simply someone who
561
01:12:49.880 --> 01:12:56.399
is seeking solace in the harmonies of
another decade, remember that the music of
562
01:12:56.479 --> 01:13:00.000
the nineteen eighties is here always.
It's a friend, it's a confidant,
563
01:13:00.760 --> 01:13:06.199
it's a source of comfort when you
seem uncertain in life. And eighties music
564
01:13:06.359 --> 01:13:12.199
it's a timeless note that continues to
resonate, reminding us of the beauty and
565
01:13:12.399 --> 01:13:16.359
universality of human emotion. So I
want to encourage you, as you've listened
566
01:13:16.399 --> 01:13:20.000
to today's show, to keep the
spirit of the eighties alive, not just
567
01:13:20.359 --> 01:13:25.680
in your playlist, but in your
heart, for the world can always use,
568
01:13:25.960 --> 01:13:29.560
as Chang always says, a little
more of that magic, a little
569
01:13:29.600 --> 01:13:33.079
more of that connection, a little
more of that love. Chang. I
570
01:13:33.199 --> 01:13:39.560
want to thank you personally, my
brother, for teaching me so much of
571
01:13:39.680 --> 01:13:44.640
what I was missing back in the
eighties with rock with Metal, about its
572
01:13:44.800 --> 01:13:50.279
lyrics, about the true meaning the
hardships that those musicians went through. And
573
01:13:50.359 --> 01:13:55.319
I really want to give you a
thumbs up for everything that I've learned from
574
01:13:55.359 --> 01:13:59.079
you, brother about eighties music,
because that area of my life I can
575
01:13:59.159 --> 01:14:03.359
appreciate today and it's as new today
for me as it was back then.
576
01:14:03.840 --> 01:14:10.760
Oh Bro, I greatly appreciate those
words of praise, I really do.
577
01:14:12.159 --> 01:14:15.199
But just like you, Bro,
it's it's all about the music, it's
578
01:14:15.239 --> 01:14:20.279
all about the era. It's like
those who survived through the good, the
579
01:14:20.399 --> 01:14:25.279
bad, the ugly and live to
tell about it. I mean, it's
580
01:14:25.359 --> 01:14:30.039
just killer cool. You know,
all of us are going to bail out
581
01:14:30.079 --> 01:14:36.760
of this place one day and everything
that we lived goes with us, and
582
01:14:38.119 --> 01:14:45.239
everything we learned we can keep here
with teaching anybody that we come in touch
583
01:14:45.319 --> 01:14:49.640
with, whether it be our children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces, neighbors,
584
01:14:49.800 --> 01:14:58.439
friends, acquaintances. The bottom line
is life is like music. It's
585
01:14:58.520 --> 01:15:02.920
just gonna play on different types of
songs for different emotions and different events.
586
01:15:03.279 --> 01:15:09.600
And if you're from the eighties,
you can gravitate and resonate to a time
587
01:15:09.680 --> 01:15:16.479
where diversity was king. No fear
was the way. It was recklessness,
588
01:15:17.479 --> 01:15:24.640
cause damage and movement. But we
agreed on one thing that was to be
589
01:15:24.920 --> 01:15:30.119
us, to be who we wanted, to enjoy what we are going through
590
01:15:30.520 --> 01:15:35.840
with whoever is around us, and
to always remember to have fun whether or
591
01:15:35.920 --> 01:15:41.600
not the ship is deep or the
flowers smell like they're gonna die. You

are listening to Back to the eighties
radio with Tascono and Chang. I bid

you all a good night, an
audios abode, sayanada an astella vista,

01:15:51.520 --> 01:16:01.239
and to all my homies across this
land, or to the cold day at
595
01:16:01.359 --> 01:16:09.520
