One point, you are listening to
the one and only Back to the Eighties
9
00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:59.759
Radio. This is Toscano from Toscano
and Chang. We are bringing you the
10
00:00:59.840 --> 00:01:03.560
new nostalgia from the memories that we
forgot we even had. We're introducing the
11
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:07.640
eighties to a whole new generation.
And we've got a great show for you
12
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:14.280
today because we're going to continue our
talk of top ten greatest songs, but
13
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:19.760
this time it's nineteen eighty three.
We're gonna be mentioning Billboard's top ten,
14
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:25.760
and then we're gonna hit you twice
as hard with Toscano and Chang's picks four
15
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:30.079
nineteen eighty three's top ten songs.
But of course we can't do the show
16
00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:34.719
alone. The man, the myth, and the legend is with us.
17
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:40.799
Some say his skin has the texture
of Gene Simmons Asslin's chaps, and that
18
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:44.400
wherever you are in the world,
if you turn your radio to eighty eight
19
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:49.599
point four you can actually hear his
thoughts. Well here at back to the
20
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:57.879
eighties radio. We know him as
the Chang. All right, the ever
21
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:07.560
so Grace's beautiful Chang is now entering
the courtroom by luft Tuscano. Could you
22
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:13.680
please refer to the jury not to
look at the accused for the remainder of
23
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:16.840
the trial. And I would like
to let everybody know, sitting in the
24
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:24.120
back row with the assless chaps that
all have yes, that uncomfortable g string
25
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:30.599
attached to him. Please notice that
there are magazines under your seats if you
26
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:35.039
get bored, and ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, it is I
27
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:40.159
the Chang, and I am here
with the most famous Italians and Chef Boyard.
28
00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.240
The only man I know that buys
foot see pajamas and cuts off the
29
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:54.439
feet. The only man that I
know buys booty socks with little fuzzy balls
30
00:02:54.960 --> 00:03:02.159
and makes stuffed animals with the fuzzy
balls. My partner in crime and rhyme,
31
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:13.319
the ever soul, Molti cultural Latino, Italiano, Googliano, funny man
32
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:19.719
father and yes, fellow rum drinkersco
I'd like her. You put that right
33
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:23.159
there at the end. A big

00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:55.399
And oh wait a second, we've
got I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen,
70
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:59.480
sorry to interrupt a program like this, but we've got a special bulletin and
71
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:03.040
I'm sorry. Right now, we
have to go live to our newscatter,
72
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:08.959
our special reporter who's on the scene, Sam I am? Who is live
73
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:14.279
from Hell, Michigan? Sam Tuskey, Hi, Sam I am here.
74
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:23.399
I'm talking here of a former impeached
senator, Sir Cisco Hughes, and we're
75
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:28.160
gonna ask him if he was president
today, what exactly would he change?
76
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.399
Sir Poco? Can I call you, Sir Poco? First of all,
77
00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:35.360
howdy. And the second of all, did you did hear you call me
78
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:43.759
Cisco? My name's Pocco. Of
course you can call me Cisco Francisco.
79
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:48.319
You can also call me Pachuco,
but that's another tang. What seems to
80
00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:53.160
be the problem over there. But
Cuco, Well, we just wanted to
81
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:58.040
get your take. What would you
do differently if you were the president of
82
00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.240
the United States right now in the
every critical time, with the violence,
83
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:11.240
the gasolene hike prices, this terrible
ordeal we are facing with Russia and Ukraine.
84
00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:14.560
What three things do you think you
could do to make it better?
85
00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:17.959
Whoa slow down? Son? If
you're here in Hill, Michigan, I
86
00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:23.199
can tell you how I run things. Don't don't mind. I was impeached,
87
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:28.040
but that's a different story. It's
a little Sunday Sunday evening, a
88
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:31.240
little night out in the town here
by Satan's Hills. Of course. Well,
89
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:35.399
first of all, I say you
bring back public hangings, that's right.
90
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:43.560
Number two, I say you take
everybody's guns away, including the police,
91
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.519
and you bring them over here to
Hill, Michigan, and you put
92
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:54.000
them in my own personal stockpile.
Now regarding the gasoline prices and hikes and
93
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:58.079
all that nitty gritty stuff that nobody
wants to deal with. I could put
94
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:01.360
an end to all of that.
We're why. I'll tell you what I
95
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.480
would do. You cut them people
overseas off. You cut everybody, cut
96
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.319
cut every single country off off.
I don't care from where they're from,
97
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:13.879
anywhere outside of Hell Michigan. Cut
them off. And then you bring all
98
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.439
the petroleum, everything that has petroleum, you bring it to Hell Michigan.
99
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:24.759
We got plenty of land where elevated
eight hundred and eighty six feet above the
100
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.480
beautiful ocean. And by the way, did I ever tell you that the
101
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:35.600
phrase when hell freeze is over came
from here? Praise me to George Reeves,
102
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.639
who moved into the area in eighteen
thirty. One of my questions,
103
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:43.759
sire, you are a crafty son
of a bitch. My first question is
104
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:50.159
do you have any thoughts or ideas
how you could break away from using petroleum
105
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:54.480
which is killing Mother Earth and its
own right on other ways to form a
106
00:08:54.559 --> 00:09:01.840
better Oh? Please, are you
one of those green goblin and dukitty dukes?
107
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:05.039
Oh Mother Earth, this mother Earth? That do you know you can
108
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:11.919
put the entire population of Texas here
in Hell, Michigan. The name is
109
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:16.679
sam I am, Sir. I
am not going to ask you again,
110
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.720
sam I Am. I did not
like no Hags and ham. I like
111
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:26.679
Hell Mi Michigan. Now here's the
thing, mister sam I Am. You're
112
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:33.039
one of them little liberals who probably
only eats greens and doesn't know what a
113
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:37.159
good ribis, steak is and a
good country fright steak. No again,
114
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:43.120
let's stick to the question. Do
you believe in solar power? All right?
115
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.440
So let me let me tell you
one thing at a time. Sun
116
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:50.120
all right, so you referred to
true I am. Okay, mister Miller.
117
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.919
Listen, we you began telling me
something about gasoline. I told you.
118
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:58.200
I told you want to lower the
prices. You want everything to be
119
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.559
green and echoe green and and and
go down the piehole. I can tell
120
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:09.279
you this very whatever would you believe? Listen, here's what I believe in.
121
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:22.080
I believe in a good pair of
legs that could no. No,
122
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.399
no, I I was. I
was. I didn't get to finish my
123
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:28.679
sentence. It's just like the media
never to let a politician finish their sentences
124
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:33.840
and change it. I was gonna
say, it's in context with the me
125
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:37.840
I was gonna say, there's nothing
like a good pair of legs on top
126
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:43.600
of a bicycle where you don't need
no gasoline, just the strength of good
127
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:50.320
old Americana legs, especially if they
come out from the blue velvet or the
128
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:56.120
green oyster over there on the corner. Let's get back to the eighties show
129
00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:01.639
and to Scar with Jake. This
is Savoire am, and I'm reporting to
130
00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:09.559
you from Hell, Michigan with impeach
Senator Hormer, Senator Sir Poco Hughes.
131
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:13.480
Now, mister Hughes, give us
another statement before you say good night to
132
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:16.240
our lovely audience. All right,
As a founder of Hell, Michigan,
133
00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:20.159
George Reeves said when he was asked
what he thought about the town being called
134
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:22.559
Hell, no one knows. This
is your answer. I don't care.
135
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:28.159
Well, mister Hughes, we want
to thank you, We want to thank
136

you Sir Poco Hughes. Well,
thank you again for joining the program.
138
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:43.120
Next time we have you on,
I would, I would really urge that
139
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:46.159
you check with your people to make
sure that you get the same contract.
140
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.759
Are you American? Yes, I
am, sir. I am an American,
141
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:54.240
And how American are you? I'm
so American that I believe in all
142
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.360
freedoms and I have the freedom to
say good night to you, sir,
143
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:03.039
and welcome back to the eighties.
In that American is hell, Michigan.
144
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:09.240
Gosh dang Pilgrims. This is a

00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:35.759
almost time for a musical arm wrestling
match that's coming up later. But no,
149
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.480
everybody, have a drink, sit
down, and get ready as we
150
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:46.480
go over the top ten of the
top one hundred billboard songs from nineteen eighty
151
00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:54.960
three, and we are going to
go for the first five and here they
152
00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:03.919
are number one. Every breath you
take by the police. Why you didn't
153
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:11.440
like that song? I I will
plead the fifth. Oh, because you
154
00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:13.799
gotta be kidding. No, no, okay, okay again, all joke
155
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.080
in his side, because you know
we joke around here quite a bit.
156
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:22.399
You really don't like that song?
That song was a joke, so obviously
157
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:26.679
you love it. Oh, of
course I love the song. It's phenomenal.
158
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:31.120
Tell me why, okay, you
had Why didn't you thought that this
159
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:33.159
song was great? Why do you
not like the song? No, I'm
160
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:39.519
serious. Why do you not like
the song? Well, because it's it
161
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:41.919
was a little bit too you're making
something it was I'm not. I never
162
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:45.639
make things though. You why it
was a little too poppy when it came
163
00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:50.879
out. Oh are you gonna crack
down on every song that's pop because you
164
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.679
only like metal? Scene? Once
again, this proves that I'm right and
165
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:56.279
you're wrong. I'm the one who
loves more music than you do. No,
166
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.480
hey, hey, now you the
other reason I didn't like this song
167
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:05.320
because it was a group by the
name of the Police. I didn't know
168
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:07.480
if they were going to shoot at
me or beat me. So how the
169
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:09.480
hell did I know if they were
going to make a good album. I
170
00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:13.080
thought it was the real Cops.
Well that makes sense, that would make
171
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:18.399
sense. It would be the Rampart
Police. Another good beating deserves a hit
172
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:22.519
Number two. Yeah, that Billy
Jean from the Late Great King of pop
173
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:28.879
Michael Jackson. Now, you can't
say anything negative about Billy Jean. I
174
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:31.080
could, but I won't know.
I know you could, but I want
175
00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:39.480
to say that Michael Jackson's repertoire right
of all the songs he's ever produced and
176
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.720
recorded, I think Billy Jean,
in my opinion, Guy, is his
177
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:48.559
greatest song. Interesting, I do
not concur with you. What do you
178
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.919
know I do like I do like
Michael Jackson. I enjoy those Jackson five
179
00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:58.080
I come from that era. But
we'll just leave it as that that's one
180
00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:01.440
of your favorite songs. That's okay, okay, you not one of my
181
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:09.960
favorite songs. It's my favorite song
of Michael Jackson's entire, entire recording collections.
182
00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:13.480
So out of all his albums,
that's my favorite. Say Thriller,
183
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:20.559
I say Vanilla number three, Flashdance, What a Feeling by Irene Well.
184
00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:24.360
I gotta be honest with you.
I mean the song is okay for a
185
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:28.840
movie. It does not belong anywhere
near it, I mean, nowhere near
186
00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.399
one hundred in the top one hundred
of Billboard. But I will concur with
187
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:37.759
you one percent. And I don't
know if you agree with me, but
188
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:41.519
this song should be ranked five,
O four, probably seven oh two around
189
00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:48.720
there. That's a good number seven, number four down under with no other
190
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:54.120
band. You gotta be kidding us. Minute Work is number four down Under?
191
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.600
Now fire away, please tell tell
me what you think. We both
192
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:03.600
do like the back, yes,
but there's the discrepancy of songs. I
193
00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:08.519
love down Under by Ben at Work. I love the video because it was
194
00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:15.879
just weird. I love the band. We talked about it last week and
195
00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:19.639
everything is different. I mean,
look, remember when we were talking about
196
00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:27.240
how different eighties music every band was, yet they still brought that same spark
197
00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:33.039
of wowness to the table. This
is one of the band's men at Work,
198
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:38.440
and down Under represents probably one of
their best known songs. So in
199
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.759
my opinion, yes, it does
belong way way high up on that list.
200
00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:45.519
Okay, now, I think these
men needed to do a little bit
201
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:51.759
more work on creating a better song
because this song was so bad that I
202
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:56.559
would bury it down under the balls
of hell. You would. And let's
203
00:16:56.559 --> 00:17:02.120
go to number five with beat It. Michael Jackson. Witch is one of
204
00:17:02.120 --> 00:17:08.680
my favorite songs. And Michael Jackson, of course, showing with two top
205
00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:14.960
songs in the top ten list and
eighty three, showing his chops just so
206
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:21.079
versatile in the way he created music. Beat It was a taste of rock,
207
00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:26.359
metal and pop. So where you're
banging your head, you're grinding your
208
00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:33.359
hips and you're dancing around. Nothing
but perfection. It was okay, I
209
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:36.640
mean, you know, well,
beat It was beat It. It was
210
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:40.480
Michael Jackson. You know, he
was great, He was amazing. The
211
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:45.279
song was fantastic. But it's still
you know, I think I think Thriller
212
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.319
was better than beat It. But
that's well, I think you're just angry
213
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:52.559
because he hung around with Macaulay Culkin
and not you. Why don't you go
214
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:56.359
ahead and take the rest of the
list now, from six to ten,
215
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:04.279
yeah, Starting at number six is
a song recorded by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler,
216
00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:10.640
written up James Steinman, released on
Tyler's fifth studio album Faster than Speed,
217
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:14.839
Faster than the Speed of Night in
nineteen eighty three. And that is
218
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:19.559
total eclipse of the heart. Now, this song, this is a type
219
00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:22.759
of song that will make you cry, whether or not you broke up with
220
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.720
somebody or not. Now, I
do have to say, Bonnie Tyler,
221
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.440
she had a gorgeous eyes. She
was a very gorgeous looking woman, great
222
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:34.559
hair, Farah Fawcett, what have
you? She had great hair. That
223
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:41.799
song I didn't care for it because
it made me cry. Number seven,
224
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:48.480
number seven now Here is a duo
that I personally did not like back in
225
00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:51.720
the eighties, and well, take
that back, I liked them. I
226
00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:55.079
liked these songs back in the eighties. I didn't know who they were,
227
00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:57.200
and I would definitely it was just
a little bit older, you know,
228
00:18:57.200 --> 00:19:03.839
I was an older teen back in
the eighties, so this duo wasn't really
229
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:10.039
necessarily my thing. But now now
I love Hall of Notes and the song
230
00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:15.599
is man Eater from their album H
two oh. Number eight is a song
231
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:22.039
from Patty Austin's nineteen eighty one album
Every Home Should Have One. It was
232
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:27.519
a duet with James Ingram, who
you can't forget. James Ingram also appeared
233
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:34.319
on the USA for Africa song of
We Are the World. The album is
234
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:38.839
called Every Home Should Have One.
That's a single by Patty Austen, James
235
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:45.200
Ingram and the song of course it's
called Baby Come to Me. You know
236
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.920
what? That that explains a lot. I don't know who either artists was.
237
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:52.200
I have no idea, what the
hell that song is in the top
238
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:56.279
ten list or I would never listen
to that song. You have got to
239
00:19:56.279 --> 00:20:00.759
be here, you don't you?
Or a football No. I thought he
240
00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:06.559
was an NFL wide receiver. There
was many ingrams of none And you don't
241
00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:08.680
know who Patty Austen's not Patti LaBelle, So how the hell do I know
242
00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:12.960
who she is? Is she's the
daughter of Steve Auston, the Bionic Man.
243
00:20:14.079 --> 00:20:17.039
I have no idea. The song
was performed by Patty Austen, James
244
00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:22.079
Ingram, and Michael McDonald was background
vocals. It was produced by Quincy Jones.
245
00:20:22.119 --> 00:20:25.839
I mean, come on, this
is a huge hit. Well,
246
00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:30.480
you know, everybody has victories and
losses, and I think Quincy Jones nailed
247
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:37.240
a big loss. I think that
song sucked and they did. That song
248
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:41.200
did nothing to me. That song
must have sucked so bad. I don't
249
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:44.279
even know who the hell any of
them are, and I don't care.
250
00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:47.039
I'm sorry, Lady and gentleman,
there's no use with chang it's your song.
251
00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:48.920
Number nine, Ladies and Gentlemen,
is a song from the nineteen eighty
252
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:57.079
three film Flashdance Who once Again,
written by Dennis McCosky and performed by Michaelson
253
00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:03.160
Bello. And this is from the
original soundtrack from the motion picture Flashdowns.
254
00:21:03.880 --> 00:21:08.759
It's it's a great song, but
does it belong even anywhere near the Billboard
255
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:18.799
Top one hundred? I am afraid
not. It's your theme song, coming
256
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:23.319
down to number ten from the Billboard
Top one hundred their top ten list at
257
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:29.279
number ten. Is a song by
British new wave music duo The Arrhythmics from
258
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:33.680
their album Sweet Dreams Are Made of
Now Here's the thing. A lot of
259
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.880
people when they heard the song back
in the eighties, just as I did,
260
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:44.359
we thought it was sweet dreams are
made of these remember that? But
261
00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:49.359
it's sweet dreams are made of this. All I have to say to miss
262
00:21:49.519 --> 00:21:56.680
Lennox, and that is enunciation anyway, Oh Mark, that's all you can
263
00:21:56.720 --> 00:22:04.880
say about the ever so talented vocal
wonders in the female realm of rock and
264
00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:10.839
roll. Annie sexy Lennox come on
and not sexy at all? But what
265
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:15.559
but she was married to Dave Stewart. It's a guitar player. What do
266
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:21.440
you think of that? Good for
them? Wow? You know, I
267
00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:26.279
can't believe it that you would not
like such a great musical talent, such
268
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:32.720
as the r rhythmics. But yet, oh you know all about miss Patty
269
00:22:32.839 --> 00:22:36.839
Austin, whoever the hell she is. And this this James Ingram guy who
270
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:41.079
got cut in the NFL and decided
to make a song. He wasn't from
271
00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:45.480
the NFL. And by the way, by the way, Annie Lennox reminds
272
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:51.880
me of Jane Lynch, the actress
comedian. Do you know who she is?
273
00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.160
She came out in forty year old
Virgin She was, yes, yes,
274
00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:57.960
the boss at the electronic store.
She was a chartie shens, a
275
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:04.319
psychologist. Yes. Uh what was
the name of this his show? I
276
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:11.480
forget winning, That's all I remember
when she was. She was. She's
277
00:23:11.480 --> 00:23:15.640
also hosting the Hollywood Game Night.
Yes, yes, and she's hilarious.
278
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:21.359
Yeah, so yeah, Well that's
who Annie. Okay, well that explains
279
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:25.160
a lot, lad and genermen,
that's who Annie Lennox reminds me. But
280
00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:27.160
anyway, now, do I like
the band? Yes? Do I like
281
00:23:27.359 --> 00:23:30.319
Do I like the song? Yes? Definitely? Does it belong on the
282
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:34.519
top yes, definitely. Does it
belong in the top ten? No,
283
00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:38.319
I don't think so. I can't
tell you this as a bit of a
284
00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:45.079
trivia that Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart
wrote the song after they had broken up,
285
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:49.160
although the two of them continued,
of course, to work together.
286
00:23:51.039 --> 00:23:56.640
They wrote the song Sweet Dreams Are
Made of this. Let's take a quick
287
00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:03.119
breather when we come back. It's
our turn for the top ten of nineteen

00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:42.640
UK Singles Chart. That song is
Jeopardy by the Greg Kin Band, where

321
00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:17.279
That was great Kin with Jeopardy.
That was my number five pick of
322
00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:23.640
my number five the Chang Bang top
five out of the nineteen eighty three top
323
00:30:23.720 --> 00:30:29.680
one hundred bill Board chart. Toscannell. If you are sitting there thinking that
324
00:30:29.799 --> 00:30:33.200
you could possibly beat my musical choice
there, then you, sir, need
325
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:37.079
to go back to seventy eleven and
get more alcohol to fuel your brain,
326
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:45.240
because I just gave myself a slash
as a number one, number one victory.
327
00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:52.200
Well continue. Not only have I
never heard the song, I'm probably
328
00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:55.160
not even going to hear it even
after we play it here on back to
329
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:59.799
the anyway that goes to tell you
what I think of it? Now,
330
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:03.920
Chang I gotta prepare the way here
because this next song is a Canadian new
331
00:31:03.960 --> 00:31:08.680
wave synth pop band that this is
probably their only hit, and I do
332
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:12.759
recognize it. They had one more
after this one, but the band in
333
00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:18.160
reality, I'm gonna be right up
front with you guys, they well,
334
00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:25.359
they didn't do anything ever again.
However, they are still playing these songs
335
00:31:25.400 --> 00:31:27.319
on the radio. They play them
to death, and guess what. They
336
00:31:27.440 --> 00:31:32.119
play them on TV, they play
them on movies, they play them everywhere
337
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:37.279
and there. It's a huge success. It's a huge success from the album
338
00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:41.920
Rhythm of Youth only for you guys
here, I'm back to the eighties radio.
339
00:31:42.000 --> 00:31:47.559
This is the one and only men
without hats and the safety the dads,
340
00:31:52.519 --> 00:32:04.000
because no, let's play well down
the blind and we can act play.
341
00:32:04.039 --> 00:32:06.839
We can't from out to this world. We don't go on all be
342
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:20.920
behind, or we can go if
we want know that is young, hands
343
00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:24.240
over alive and we can fill me
from my heart stool. I can't find
344
00:32:25.000 --> 00:32:30.200
your God, Say we can if
we won't know. If we don't go,
345
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:34.400
body will and you cannot feel through
to go live room, then I
346
00:32:34.480 --> 00:32:39.000
can act like an emphas say or
we can not, or we cannot everythings
347
00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:44.519
out of control, but we canno, but we can ask doing it.
348
00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:50.359
The more, the more we can
dance. We cannot everybody put your hearts
349
00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:58.279
or we cannot, but we can
ask everybody taking the child, say to
350
00:32:58.440 --> 00:33:15.599
dance. I want to save the
dance and save the dance. But we
351
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:20.119
can dance. The one who we've
gone on your life to mind as long
352
00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:24.200
as we have ever gone on to
say everything out by, I say we
353
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:29.920
can dance the one who we can
leave the all plans behind because your friends
354
00:33:29.960 --> 00:33:32.960
don't dance, and if they don't
dance with no frances a mind, I
355
00:33:34.119 --> 00:33:38.519
see we can dance. We can
dance. Everything's under control, but we
356
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:44.920
can dance. We can dance,
then, I but we can dance.
357
00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:51.759
Everybody cut your hands and we can
dance, and we can dance. Everybody's
358
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:58.559
making the time. We will save
the dance. They ain't saved the dance.
359
00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:23.000
Well, that was a safety dance
here, I'm back to the eighties
360
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:29.159
radio by Men Without Hats, you
know, the writer and the lead singer,
361
00:34:29.559 --> 00:34:36.880
Ivan Doroschook explained that the safety dancing
is a protest against bouncers prohibiting dancers
362
00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:42.519
from po going to the to nineteen
eighties new wave music and clubs, when
363
00:34:42.559 --> 00:34:46.000
disco was declining and new wave was
coming in? Did you know that it
364
00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:52.280
was? It was a protest against
bouncers prohibiting dancers. How do you like
365
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:54.800
that? Did? I bet you
didn't know that. I didn't know that
366
00:34:55.000 --> 00:34:59.880
because the midget freaked me out so
much I didn't I couldn't even finished watch
367
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:05.599
in the video. Amazing that bad
Taste was so popular back then, and
368
00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:07.599
it's proving that bad Taste is alive
and well. Of anyone that liked that
369
00:35:07.719 --> 00:35:16.800
song, please, that's long out
of the Chang Bang Top nineteen eighty three
370

375
00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:58.800
home with nineteen eighty three's January release
off of the album Money and Cigarettes.
376
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:09.880

393
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:12.480
of the United States, peaking at
number eighteen on the Billboard Top One under
394
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:19.320
tit in nineteen eighty three. It
also reached numeral space number six on the
395
00:39:19.440 --> 00:39:25.760
Adult Contemporary chart that same year.
This man KOed it with this song in
396
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:32.079
two different type genres of music.
Therefore, here's another chop for me,
397
00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:36.800
number two. That's a double win
right there for me. Thank you,
398
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:40.039
Thank you, ladies. All right, let's take a little breather here,
399
00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:44.039
let's take a quick break. When
we come back, there's more of de
400
00:39:44.079 --> 00:39:55.119
Scottowan changing back to the eighties with
our top nineteen eighty three songs. Do
401
00:39:55.199 --> 00:40:01.119
you remember the first time you tried
these games space fuck with practice cop y'alex
402
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:05.360
see and when you first try and
coke and you said no, thank you,
403
00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:10.679
But hey, let's try coke again, because once you got that new
404
00:40:10.719 --> 00:40:14.000
wave of taste, do you want
to try it again again and again?
405
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:21.239
No practice cuts the way cocago,
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Shadow Stevens,
406
00:40:21.320 --> 00:40:25.159
and you must listen to back to
the eighties radio. It's the law.
407
00:40:28.679 --> 00:40:30.840
We are back here and back to
the eighties radio, and so are you.
408
00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:37.880
And I'm almost finished with my quick
knockout of nineteen eighty three songs.
409
00:40:37.960 --> 00:40:42.719
And you know, I just I
just have to admit it, and of
410
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:45.559
course you're gonna say, you know
what, Chang's choosing songs that nobody's ever
411
00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:51.440
heard and nobody wants to. That's
what makes his list so special because they're
412
00:40:51.760 --> 00:40:55.519
they're unknowns, and that's what we
need today from great artists, unknown music.
413
00:40:55.599 --> 00:41:02.280
And I agree with you that they
are great artist fantastic artists with unknown
414
00:41:02.360 --> 00:41:08.280
songs. Okay, now for my
number four, Ladies and gentlemen, is
415
00:41:08.599 --> 00:41:16.079
a is a genius of music.
My next song is going to knock your
416
00:41:16.159 --> 00:41:22.000
list just done. You're done.
You should just drop out, even before
417
00:41:22.039 --> 00:41:27.880
you hear the name of the artist
Chang. But this song originally peaked at
418
00:41:27.920 --> 00:41:30.519
forty four on the Billboard Top one
hundred in December nineteen eighty two. It
419
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:37.679
rereleased later and it reached number twelve
in the US, and it rereleased again
420
00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:44.079
in nineteen eighty five and it reached
number two in the UK. From the
421
00:41:44.239 --> 00:41:52.159
album nineteen ninety nine, The One
and Only Grinds on Back to the Eighties
422
00:41:52.840 --> 00:42:22.920
Radio, I was on this fucking

434
00:44:55.320 --> 00:45:47.719
to like we done nineteen nine,
nineteen ninete. That was nineteen ninety nine
435
00:45:47.960 --> 00:45:52.400
by Prince on Back to the Eighties
Radio. I told you this, you
436
00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:57.960
know what chang Rolling Stone ranked it
at three thirty nine on their list of
437
00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:02.360
the five hundred greatest songs of all
time. How do you know what?
438
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:07.079
Anything with Prince should probably get I
think ranked a lot higher than it does.
439
00:46:08.440 --> 00:46:13.840
Prince was an incredible songwriter, an
incredible guitar player, a lot of
440
00:46:13.840 --> 00:46:16.920
people don't realize that I the guy
could write great music. The guy could
441
00:46:17.000 --> 00:46:21.760
do anything in high hill shoes.
I mean that was a wizard. He
442
00:46:21.880 --> 00:46:24.480
was one of my favorite guitar players. All props to him. It was
443
00:46:24.719 --> 00:46:28.960
we live in a very sad world
music world, knowing that we do not
444
00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:34.639
have the likes of Eddie van Halen, Prince, Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson.
445
00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:40.800
Some critics have suggested that this song
nineteen and nineteen eighty five Phil Collins
446
00:46:40.840 --> 00:46:46.119
Sue Studio, sounded very, very
similar. So I don't know if there's
447
00:46:46.159 --> 00:46:51.480
something there or not, but that's
interesting. And now you are on back
448
00:46:51.760 --> 00:46:54.079
to the Edies radio right here at
Kah's not at two five, and let's
449
00:46:54.119 --> 00:46:59.800
go ahead and spin a tune that
had all the partiogoers keeping their ass as
450
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:07.079
this is no other than after the
fire rank at number thirty day Comma saw
451
00:47:53.159 --> 00:47:58.039
it's don't want to Francis in to
see but it's not that I don't care.
452
00:47:58.159 --> 00:48:01.079
So't the time that never let you

the valley, girl slipping on sandstone?

00:50:39.320 --> 00:50:50.000
Could children don't turn around cho call

00:51:51.079 --> 00:51:59.960
Don't turn around, Josh comments as
in towns car comms, don't turn around.
474
00:52:09.440 --> 00:52:25.400
Command down. You were back with
back to the eighties radio. That
475
00:52:27.039 --> 00:52:30.920
was a great song. That song
takes me back to go into the backyard
476
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:34.639
parties. I think that song was
played at every dance, backyard party,
477
00:52:35.280 --> 00:52:40.920
uh in high school football games,
flower making parties, proms, first dances,
478
00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:45.400
that song and you know I'm a
rock and roller, but that song,
479
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:47.559
Man, every time that song came
on, you knew all the eighties
480
00:52:47.679 --> 00:52:52.199
ladies and the big hair chicks were
gonna hit the dance floor. You had
481
00:52:52.239 --> 00:52:57.880
the guys with their rolled up shirts
of the barber kind of barber shop looking
482
00:52:57.920 --> 00:53:00.559
shirt to remember with the bold stripes, and you know the college shirts.
483
00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:04.559
My buddies used to wear a lot
of those disco shirts. That was I
484
00:53:04.679 --> 00:53:07.719
used to call that disco were But
man, that song, that song just
485
00:53:07.880 --> 00:53:12.719
totally takes me back to eighty three, which is a great year because the
486
00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:17.559
changma I graduated from Montabello High School
in nineteen eighty three, A nineteen eighty
487
00:53:17.639 --> 00:53:22.239
three a great year, and that
is another that is another chalk for me
488
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:28.039
as in victory. Therefore, the
score is four to one chang right right,
489
00:53:28.159 --> 00:53:30.400
Well, okay, like I said
during the break, it's free.
490
00:53:30.639 --> 00:53:36.840
There's no charge to dream, and
you are a great dreamer anyway, Dirk
491
00:53:36.880 --> 00:53:40.199
Komazar is a great song. I
was going to choose that for my own
492
00:53:40.239 --> 00:53:45.679
list. I told you during the
break. Did you know that Falco when
493
00:53:45.119 --> 00:53:51.159
he got the song, the song
had been recorded as a pop rock song
494
00:53:51.519 --> 00:53:53.719
and they said, yeah, it's
a little too soft, it's a little
495
00:53:53.760 --> 00:53:58.599
too slow, and Falco said,
you know what, I'll record it for
496
00:53:58.800 --> 00:54:05.360
me. He rerecorded it and it
became a smashing success and then they even
497
00:54:05.440 --> 00:54:09.119
recorded it in German and other countries
as well. So yeah, great,
498
00:54:09.199 --> 00:54:13.320
great song Falco. Who would you
not say that song? The way he
499
00:54:13.440 --> 00:54:16.039
slid in some of the rock chords, I mean, it just it was
500
00:54:16.159 --> 00:54:21.280
menacing when you heard it on a
party system, you know what I mean,
501
00:54:21.360 --> 00:54:24.159
going going to a backyard party and
you heard the DEJOI crank that I
502
00:54:24.239 --> 00:54:27.960
mean it was just like, I
mean, everybody would hit the dance floor.
503
00:54:28.639 --> 00:54:31.840
It was almost like that that song
Madness put out. There were certain
504
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:36.559
songs back in the eighties when you
were at a backyard party that would just
505
00:54:36.639 --> 00:54:38.960
bring everybody's ass out there, and
it was that, to me, is
506
00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:45.679
one of those great songs. My
number three actually is on Billboard's Top ten
507
00:54:45.800 --> 00:54:47.480
lists, in number two. Well
wait a minute, wait, are you
508
00:54:47.599 --> 00:54:51.800
implying that I stole this somewhere?
I just pulled it out of my ass.
509
00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:54.800
Well no, but you you accidentally
got another point, so that gives
510
00:54:54.840 --> 00:54:59.519
you two. But that's okay,
You're just angry. I got I took
511
00:54:59.559 --> 00:55:05.840
it here. He My number three
is Billboards number two, and I'm talking
512
00:55:05.880 --> 00:55:10.119
about the man who needs no introduction, the King of Pop himself from the
513
00:55:10.239 --> 00:55:17.039
album Thriller. From the album Thriller
Michael Jackson with Billy Jean on the One
514
00:55:17.079 --> 00:55:42.559
and Only Back to the Eighties radio, she was more like Queen, I
515
00:55:42.800 --> 00:56:05.719
move suit, Do you mean no
wild who round? She took me arning
516
00:56:06.119 --> 00:56:10.840
being genius she cost to see.
Then if he hits them ice cream in
517
00:56:12.039 --> 00:56:24.360
the one dance round, they've alsow
me be carel what you don't go around

so she's the chair for the reason for

00:57:02.840 --> 00:57:08.280

526
00:58:00.480 --> 00:58:27.440
my chair, my monster cheese,
my cheese, chairs and my moms.
527
00:58:30.000 --> 00:59:57.440
She said, the chair, the
chair, my chan You know this is
528
00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:00.360
back to the eighties radio. That's
Billy Jean from Michael Jackson from his album
529
01:00:00.800 --> 01:00:07.679
Thriller, and I gotta tell you
man, just this song alone destroys your
530
01:00:07.840 --> 01:00:10.760
entire list, as I always destroy
your lists. But you know what,
531
01:00:13.239 --> 01:00:16.360
so far nineteen eighty three has shown
me that as the years progress in the
532
01:00:16.559 --> 01:00:22.480
eighties, it keeps getting better and
better. I mean, now, on
533
01:00:22.599 --> 01:00:25.480
a serious note, doesn't it seem
like as you progress in the eighties,
534
01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:30.880
songs. Just keep getting better.
Artists that were from the seventies, just
535
01:00:31.079 --> 01:00:36.840
keep writing mega, mega hits in
the eighties. Now, are you done
536
01:00:36.880 --> 01:00:42.280
patting yourself on the back for a
Well, that was a question to you.
537
01:00:43.000 --> 01:00:46.239
That was a question to you.
You don't even answer my question.
538
01:00:46.719 --> 01:00:52.960
I had whiskey night. I don't
even know why I asked. I know
539
01:00:53.039 --> 01:00:57.440
the answer was already talking myself on. I didn't hear the question. I
540
01:00:57.599 --> 01:01:04.000
apologize. I was taking a shot. I was, yeah, I packing
541
01:01:04.239 --> 01:01:07.800
some medicine, and all of a
sudden I heard you boasting about victory.
542
01:01:07.840 --> 01:01:12.239
And then I was like, he
just there's no need to listen to his
543
01:01:12.360 --> 01:01:17.119
rhetoric, So please please tell me
ask me that question. Well, you
544
01:01:17.199 --> 01:01:20.400
know what I'm gonna do. I'm
gonna do better than that. Instead of
545
01:01:20.440 --> 01:01:24.199
asking a question, I'll just keep
doing my rhetoric. The lyrics of Billy
546
01:01:24.320 --> 01:01:30.239
Jean describe a woman by the name
of Billy Jean who claims that the narrator
547
01:01:30.320 --> 01:01:34.159
of the song is the father of
her newborn son, which he denies.
548
01:01:35.199 --> 01:01:39.840
Michael Jackson said that the lyrics were
based on groupies claiming about his older brothers
549
01:01:40.239 --> 01:01:45.840
when he toured with him as the
Jackson five. So that is a bit
550
01:01:45.880 --> 01:01:51.599
of information that just destroyed your entire
list from here till nineteen. You know
551
01:01:51.679 --> 01:01:53.000
what, I thought? He was
singing a billy Jean King, the former
552
01:01:53.079 --> 01:01:58.119
tennis player. But that just goes
to show you how I'm row was incorrect.
553
01:01:58.719 --> 01:02:01.599
Now are you ready for as you
are about your as you are about
554
01:02:01.599 --> 01:02:05.679
your winning? You left ready?
Are you ready to get smashed upside the
555
01:02:05.719 --> 01:02:08.440
head with a chang bang? I'm
ready because nothing you can do from now
556
01:02:08.519 --> 01:02:14.239
I will even come close to me
on my next track off of the Billboard
557
01:02:14.559 --> 01:02:21.320
Top one hundred smash and Grab Hits
of nineteen eighty three has to fall upon
558
01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:29.239
number forty two, and number forty
two falls in because I don't father chasing
559
01:02:29.559 --> 01:03:00.519
my sura. That's right, the
stray cats, stray cats, and all
560
01:03:00.599 --> 01:03:14.519
the fans ain't God. I'm done
a baby, I'm playing broke. I
561
01:03:14.679 --> 01:03:20.320
don't care. I started right by
with my tail in the air. Drink

569
01:05:45.280 --> 01:05:48.039

01:05:56.079 --> 01:06:00.440
charts of nineteen eighty three. For
those of you that have just joined and
572
01:06:00.599 --> 01:06:06.599
had missed some of the program,
it is either Chang snacking scoutter around almost
573
01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:13.360
like a stealtht animal without any eyelids. That's right. I am at presently
574
01:06:14.000 --> 01:06:18.800

It's gonna be great. Okay, yes,
576
01:06:25.480 --> 01:06:28.559
okay, mister President. Anything else
I want to do me a favorite?
577
01:06:28.760 --> 01:06:33.039
Let's do a capital run for my
number two. I went all the
578
01:06:33.119 --> 01:06:39.719
way to the UK. This band
is very elegant, to say the least.
579
01:06:40.599 --> 01:06:45.000
It is a band. They came
up with an album on April fifteenth
580
01:06:45.679 --> 01:06:49.440
that went worldwide, peaking at number
one in the UK Singles, and it
581
01:06:49.639 --> 01:06:58.079
also became this band's number one hit
in the US, reaching number four on
582
01:06:58.159 --> 01:07:01.760
the Billboard Hot one hundred in the
autumn of nineteen eighty three and topping the
583
01:07:01.800 --> 01:07:05.679
Adult Contemporary chart for one week.
And it received a b in My Award
584
01:07:05.760 --> 01:07:11.119
as one of the most played songs
in US and world history. From the
585
01:07:11.239 --> 01:07:46.079
album True by Spandout Ballet on Back
to the Eighties Radio, So True,
586
01:07:47.280 --> 01:07:59.360
funny, how it seems always in
time? But never mind for dreams to
587
01:08:00.039 --> 01:08:12.119
ohto? That says the same?
That says the side, why ticket to
588
01:08:12.400 --> 01:08:21.000
the world, But now I've come
back again? Why do I find it?
589
01:08:21.199 --> 01:08:27.399
How to right? The next line? Oh, I want to say,
590
01:08:33.239 --> 01:08:58.399
I don't much. I don't much. True, We're a frill in
591
01:08:58.600 --> 01:09:08.840
my hand and a bill of my
open that just be gone listening to my
592
01:09:09.600 --> 01:09:27.279
man. This is the same side, always sipping from my hand and the
593
01:09:27.479 --> 01:09:34.920
time of do take Yoursie? That
out the right the next side? Oh,
594
01:09:35.199 --> 01:10:57.640
I know, I know, But
now I'll come back again? Why
595
01:11:00.159 --> 01:12:27.520
film no, no smart, Smart, I'm not It's been own ballet with
596
01:12:27.760 --> 01:12:31.800
True I'm Back to the Eighties Radio, released in nineteen eighty three. Oh
597
01:12:31.960 --> 01:12:34.119
What a song. When this song
comes out, I mean, this song
598
01:12:34.239 --> 01:12:40.319
is responsible for lovers everywhere around the
world. It's been in movies, it's
599
01:12:40.399 --> 01:12:45.439
been in video games, it's been
in so many things. I mean,
600
01:12:45.239 --> 01:12:49.399
it's a tribute. Believe it or
not. This pays tribute to the Motown
601
01:12:49.560 --> 01:12:56.359
artist Marvin Gay, who's mentioned in
the lyrics. Really would that be?
602
01:12:56.680 --> 01:12:59.479
But you didn't know? No?
Would that be? The opening lyric where
603
01:12:59.520 --> 01:13:05.720
the three in my head and appeal? Now you know what? Now?
604
01:13:05.800 --> 01:13:10.960
I did go see this band,
and I took my girlfriend at the present,
605
01:13:11.359 --> 01:13:14.560
at that present time, to go
see this band. Wait a second,
606
01:13:14.640 --> 01:13:16.600
you actually paid to go see yeah, because I was trying to get
607
01:13:16.720 --> 01:13:19.680
laid. So you have to understand
how that worked. Back then, you
608
01:13:19.800 --> 01:13:23.840
gotta give a little to get up. Of course, give a little to
609
01:13:24.000 --> 01:13:28.279
get Did you actually pay attention to
what you were listening to? Oddly enough,
610
01:13:28.720 --> 01:13:31.039
I paid attention just for that one
song, and then I gave her
611
01:13:31.039 --> 01:13:33.560
a big hug, and you know, I gotta I gotta reach around,
612
01:13:33.600 --> 01:13:38.159
and I uh. I proceeded to
the restaurant, where I cried myself,
613
01:13:38.359 --> 01:13:44.039
going why am I here? I
was the only long haired guy in a
614
01:13:44.159 --> 01:13:48.720

Smashing Hits. And this song comes in
618
01:14:14.119 --> 01:14:20.720
from number fifty one in the long
list. And that is no other than
619
01:14:21.279 --> 01:14:27.640

650
01:18:30.960 --> 01:18:38.039
shoes, that video, the brunette, the song, the beat, it
651
01:18:38.399 --> 01:18:44.680
kind of had that that that menacing
drum beat, the horns, the way
652
01:18:44.720 --> 01:18:47.560
they come in. It almost sounds
like you're at a risque high school football
653
01:18:47.840 --> 01:18:53.840
game. Great song, great song. Oh listen to it as soon as
654
01:18:53.880 --> 01:18:57.720
the show sound sucked, and it
sucks today. That's why you never hear
655
01:18:57.760 --> 01:19:00.560
it today. Oh brother, and
that album Friend or Foe with him sniffing
656
01:19:00.600 --> 01:19:05.239
a rose. Let me give you
my number five because this nineteen eighty three,
657
01:19:05.319 --> 01:19:09.399
and you know what I thought,
sincerely, I thought that you were
658
01:19:09.439 --> 01:19:15.720
really going to win this time.
But having lost nineteen eighty nineteen eighty one,
659
01:19:15.319 --> 01:19:19.279
you won nineteen eighty No, you
won nineteen eighty one, but you
660
01:19:19.399 --> 01:19:25.239
lost nineteen eighty and eighty two and
you're about to lose nineteen eighty three.
661
01:19:26.439 --> 01:19:31.319
This was definitely definitely your worst year. And I don't know, I don't
662
01:19:31.319 --> 01:19:34.119
know, but you know what,
I can't say that I was surprised.
663
01:19:34.680 --> 01:19:39.479
I can't say that for my number
five. Ladies and Gentlemen is a song
664
01:19:39.600 --> 01:19:45.119
by a British pop and ska band
were released as the lead single from their
665
01:19:45.159 --> 01:19:49.640
fourth studio album, The Rise and
Fall on November twelfth, nineteen eighty two.
666
01:19:50.119 --> 01:19:54.199
The song charted within the top ten
in several countries and it was the
667
01:19:54.279 --> 01:19:59.119
band's biggest hit, and it continues
to be their biggest hit and it will
668
01:19:59.199 --> 01:20:04.159
continue to be one of my favorite
forever songs on this earth. It's madness,
669
01:20:04.800 --> 01:20:08.359
the Rice and Fall. This is
our house. I'm back to the

688
01:23:21.000 --> 01:23:25.520
and gentlemen. I want to thank
you in advance for all the beautiful comments
689
01:23:25.560 --> 01:23:31.720
you've been dropping by Twitter and by
Facebook direct message telling us how I won
690
01:23:33.399 --> 01:23:39.439
this just hands down, and I
really appreciate it. But I already knew
691
01:23:39.479 --> 01:23:44.800
this, so that was a given. But this song, Madness, this
692
01:23:44.960 --> 01:23:49.119
song Our House by Madness chang on
a serious note, I love this song.
693
01:23:49.560 --> 01:23:53.680
I let me put it to this
way. This is something you have
694
01:23:53.720 --> 01:23:56.319
a tattoo of this song title on
your use. But you know what,
695
01:23:56.399 --> 01:23:59.920
if I could, I would,
I just don't have a tattoo artist that's
696
01:24:00.079 --> 01:24:02.680
daring enough. I can tell you
this though on a very serious note.
697
01:24:02.720 --> 01:24:06.960
Though serious, serious note, all
joking aside. When I hear this song
698
01:24:08.479 --> 01:24:15.560
our House, it's the only song
that brings back more memories from the early
699
01:24:15.640 --> 01:24:19.479
early eighties, of course than any
other song, partly because when the song
700
01:24:19.600 --> 01:24:25.319
came out, my cousin and I
used to play that we were radio DJs
701
01:24:25.760 --> 01:24:30.000
and we used to record each other. Remember those recorders, those portable recorders
702
01:24:30.039 --> 01:24:33.760
that you put the tape on the
top and they had a handle you actually
703
01:24:33.800 --> 01:24:39.239
could carry the tape recorder. So
he had one of those, and we
704
01:24:39.319 --> 01:24:43.439
would pretend we were on K rock
listening to or we were part of the
705
01:24:43.560 --> 01:24:46.960
love line, and when the song
our House would come on, brother,
706
01:24:47.039 --> 01:24:53.079
I can tell you that that's the
song that brings back more eighties memories than
707
01:24:53.279 --> 01:24:57.760
any other song from the eighties.
It brings back so many fond memories,
708
01:24:58.159 --> 01:25:01.920
so many great memories to me when
you say our House by Madness, it
709
01:25:02.119 --> 01:25:08.119
is the epitome of the eighties in
a much happier time for me personally,
710
01:25:08.720 --> 01:25:12.279
because during that time it was just
such a happy time in my life.
711
01:25:13.119 --> 01:25:15.319
You know what, Now I'm going
to hit you with my bonus track,
712
01:25:15.399 --> 01:25:18.279
and this is This song is so
epic and comes from such a great legend
713
01:25:18.800 --> 01:25:28.039
who not only started his own style
and music and fashion and acting, but
714
01:25:29.000 --> 01:25:34.439
married a model, a beautiful model, continued with his career in so many
715
01:25:34.560 --> 01:25:41.199
different fashions with different bands. Every
time he created a new album had a
716
01:25:41.279 --> 01:25:45.199
different look, a different feel,
a different sound. I'm talking about the
717
01:25:45.359 --> 01:25:50.479
legendary late great mister David Bowie who
came in with this song number sixty two.
718
01:25:51.199 --> 01:26:15.119
China Girl, My curscape is feel
It's my chan ground, I feel
719
01:26:15.279 --> 01:26:31.279
a wreck without mind little Channa Grave
her hard leading loudunder, soully stars crushing
720
01:26:35.840 --> 01:26:48.039
my mist without my little channel ground
wick up, It's my little chime ground
721
01:26:50.600 --> 01:27:05.279
her heart beating. Lord is under
a soul is star is CHRISTI a fume,
722
01:27:05.600 --> 01:27:25.119
trudged like Mom Brandon window God not
chunk thing I really meant to my
723
01:27:25.399 --> 01:27:51.760
check when I look at my chunk
of a stumble inser sound just like a
724
01:27:53.039 --> 01:28:19.560
sacred call asons a swasaus of man. My, my little child, you
725
01:28:19.800 --> 01:28:32.119
should be nice with me. I'll
ruin everything. I'll give you tell the
726
01:28:33.640 --> 01:28:40.680
I'll give your eyes a blow.
I'll give you a man, a wife,
727
01:28:40.960 --> 01:28:49.600
the room, the world. I
will my good exciting my little China
728
01:28:49.760 --> 01:29:49.680
burdens. Baby. Just you shut
your house, she says. She's I
729
01:29:49.800 --> 01:29:55.199
have nothing but admigration and love for
David Bowie. This song, China Girl,
730
01:29:55.479 --> 01:30:00.600
it's very funny. It was written
by Iggy Pop and David Bowie during
731
01:30:00.680 --> 01:30:08.279
the years in Berlin, first appearing
on a pop debut solo called The Idiot
732
01:30:08.319 --> 01:30:13.920
in seventy seven. But this song
was, I mean totally phenomenal. It
733
01:30:14.399 --> 01:30:18.880
ranked also number two in the UK
as well as it did on the Billboard
734
01:30:19.439 --> 01:30:25.800
Top chart. As we have here. It was number one for four on
735
01:30:26.199 --> 01:30:32.000
week number fourteen. During June.
The US release reached number ten at all
736
01:30:32.199 --> 01:30:40.800
time hits, and you know people
buying that album. Mister David Bowie a
737
01:30:41.000 --> 01:30:45.039
legend in his own right now.
China Girl was a song that a lot
738
01:30:45.079 --> 01:30:49.079
of my buddies in high school would
mock me with because I received the name
739
01:30:49.199 --> 01:30:55.159
Chang in high school. So whenever
this song came on, my buddies used
740
01:30:55.199 --> 01:30:59.920
to like to sing it to me
and recite in front of my Japanese girlfriend,
741
01:31:00.119 --> 01:31:02.439
which you know, they were good
times, good memories, a great
742
01:31:02.479 --> 01:31:05.640
song. There. I beat you. You can't beat David Bowie. You
743
01:31:05.720 --> 01:31:12.039
can't when asked Nile Rogers, the
producer of David Bowie's nineteen eighty three version
744
01:31:12.079 --> 01:31:15.239
of the song, he was asked
about the song, and he said,
745
01:31:15.319 --> 01:31:18.680
you know what, Originally I figured
that China Girl was about doing drugs because
746
01:31:18.800 --> 01:31:24.640
China is a China White, which
is heroine, so the girl is cocaine,
747
01:31:25.640 --> 01:31:29.319
he said. I thought it was
a song about speedballing. I thought
748
01:31:29.520 --> 01:31:31.600
in the drug community in New York, Cooke as a girl and heroin as
749
01:31:31.600 --> 01:31:36.279
a boy. So then I proceeded
to do this arrangement, which was ultra
750
01:31:36.359 --> 01:31:41.000
pop, because I thought that being
you know, David Bowie, he would
751
01:31:41.000 --> 01:31:45.640
appreciate the irony of doing something so
pop about something so taboo. So that
752
01:31:45.920 --> 01:31:48.640
is a bit of trivia and I
gotta, I gotta look, I gotta
753
01:31:48.640 --> 01:31:51.359
hand it to you. That was
a that was a pretty good strike.
754
01:31:53.680 --> 01:31:57.720
Unfortunately, if you were in a
boxing ring, you would have struck my
755
01:31:57.880 --> 01:32:01.000
shoulder and it would have been my
left one, not my right one,
756
01:32:01.560 --> 01:32:05.840
not my power shoulder. So you're
doomed, my friend, because I would
757
01:32:05.840 --> 01:32:09.840
have missed your power shoulder. You
would have missed only because you were turned
758
01:32:09.880 --> 01:32:14.239
around. Patting yourself is correct,
correct, and I pat myself. You
759
01:32:14.279 --> 01:32:17.199
would have already you would have been
proclaiming victory, and I would have missed
760
01:32:17.239 --> 01:32:21.439
the landing knockout shot. This is
the knockout shot My bonus round Song is
761
01:32:21.479 --> 01:32:30.279
a song written, recorded, and
produced by another British singer and songwriter.
762
01:32:30.039 --> 01:32:36.279
He released his nineteen eighty two album
Killer on the Rampage in the United States
763
01:32:36.359 --> 01:32:41.760
with the help of course of MTV. It was one of the biggest hits
764
01:32:41.800 --> 01:32:46.319
of nineteen eighty three. The song
refers to an avenue in London called Electric
765
01:32:47.199 --> 01:32:54.720
from the Killer on the Rampage album, Mister Eddie Grant with Electric Avenue on
766
01:32:54.840 --> 01:33:08.439
the one and only back to the
eighties radio By now in the streets,
767
01:33:08.479 --> 01:33:16.319
there is violence and then a laugh. So done no place another washing,
768
01:33:17.359 --> 01:33:21.880
and then I can't pay all on
the sound. Oh no, we're gonna
769
01:33:23.079 --> 01:33:30.000
run down to heal shake our venue
and then we'll take it higher. Oh,
770
01:33:30.199 --> 01:33:34.760
we're gonna run down to heal shake
our venue and then we'll take it
771
01:33:34.960 --> 01:33:46.319
higher. Working so hard as a
soldier can't afford a thing unto me deep
772
01:33:46.399 --> 01:33:54.560
in my heart eye a boria can't
get foot the good start. We gonna
773
01:33:54.760 --> 01:34:00.439
run down to heal a shrike venue
and then we'll take it high. Ho.
774
01:34:00.880 --> 01:34:06.319
We donna run down to heal a
trick a venue and then we'll take
775
01:34:06.399 --> 01:34:21.199

01:34:24.640 --> 01:34:30.039
oh, we're gonna run down to

01:34:30.119 --> 01:34:38.039
it higher. Ho. We donna
run down to get a trick avenue and
778
01:34:38.239 --> 01:34:44.479
then we'll take it higher. Who
is to blame? In one country?
779
01:34:45.199 --> 01:34:55.319
Never can get to the one dealing
in mondification, and they still can't beat
780
01:34:55.439 --> 01:35:00.760
everyone. Oh no, we gonna
run down to healer trick a venue and
781
01:35:00.960 --> 01:35:06.760
then we'll take it higher. Oh

782
01:35:08.079 --> 01:35:15.359
trick a venue and then we'll take
it higher. Out in the street,
783
01:35:17.119 --> 01:35:28.680
out in the street, out in
the deadhime out in the night. Oh,
784
01:35:28.920 --> 01:35:33.359
we gonna rune down to be let

rune it down to trick a Venue and
786
01:35:41.560 --> 01:35:50.000
then we'll take it higher. Out
in the street, out in the street,
787
01:35:53.680 --> 01:36:05.760
out in the blackground? Is that
that side of town? High up?
788
01:36:29.600 --> 01:36:31.600
We're back here, back to the
eighties radio. That was Electric Avenue
789
01:36:31.680 --> 01:36:35.880
by Eddie Grant. The song title
refers to Electric Avenue in the south of
790
01:36:35.960 --> 01:36:42.560
London's district of Brixton, which was
the first market street to be lit by
791
01:36:42.720 --> 01:36:46.720
electricity, and according to Grant,
he first became aware of the street's existence
792
01:36:46.880 --> 01:36:54.159
during a stinct acting at Black Theater
of Brixton. So now, of course
793
01:36:54.239 --> 01:37:00.479
that area is known for a high
population in Caribbean immigrants, but the beginning
794
01:37:00.520 --> 01:37:05.119
of the eighties it was identified as
Electric Avenue. How do you like?
795
01:37:05.239 --> 01:37:09.720
You know? That was a crazy
song. You know, if you think
796
01:37:09.840 --> 01:37:14.319
Eddie Grant can beat David Boye,
then you know what you've been drinking and
797
01:37:14.760 --> 01:37:17.560
been on a motorcycle without a helmet
way too long there. Put that on
798
01:37:17.680 --> 01:37:24.199
the show, Put that on the
show. Oh my gosh, guys,
799
01:37:24.319 --> 01:37:28.039
thank you for joining us here back
to the eighties. It's been an awesome
800
01:37:28.159 --> 01:37:32.520
time. We always always have a
great time reminiscing about the good, the
801
01:37:32.640 --> 01:37:35.239
good parts of the eighties and even
the bad parts. You know what,
802
01:37:35.720 --> 01:37:40.600
It's what made our life a soundtrack. So let's bring the soundtrack to a
803
01:37:40.680 --> 01:37:43.600
newer generation, both the good and
the bad. That's what we're here for.
804
01:37:43.840 --> 01:37:46.720
So see you next week. For
myself, Tiscano, I just want

I want you all to remember to
stay lifted and gifted. Everybody out there
808
01:37:59.319 --> 01:38:02.840
matters you all count uh, stand
up for something bigger than yourself, stand
809
01:38:02.960 --> 01:38:08.000

01:38:08.000 --> 01:38:11.399
face. If you like what we're
doing here, please share the program.
811
01:38:11.920 --> 01:38:15.760
I'm gonna take you out with one
song, and that song is number fourteen
812
01:38:15.920 --> 01:38:20.000
on the Top one hundred Billboard charts, and that is Shame on the Moon
813
01:38:20.159 --> 01:38:25.079
by Bob Sieger and the Silver Bullet
Band. You keep it locked and loaded.
814
01:38:25.319 --> 01:38:28.560
We'll see you next week. Until
then, I bid you an adios.
815
01:38:29.119 --> 01:38:36.039
Sayonara rista la vista asta manana asta
luego, and to all my bros
816
01:38:36.119 --> 01:38:45.479
indoc later buds, and to all
my homies across this land. Or until
817
01:38:45.520 --> 01:38:54.840
you've been to sadem man, you
don't know what he wants. You don't
818
01:38:54.920 --> 01:39:03.159
know if you cross it. Man, don't know if you don't when nothing
819
01:39:03.359 --> 01:39:16.439
becomes easy, old nightmares alreath.
Until you've been beside a man, you
820
01:39:16.640 --> 01:39:29.880
don't know how he feels. Once
inside a woman's heart, a man must
821
01:39:30.039 --> 01:39:40.239
keep his head. Heavn opens up
the door well, angels fear to trail.
822
01:39:43.199 --> 01:39:53.520
Some men go praisey, some men
go slow, Some men go just
823
01:39:53.720 --> 01:40:13.840
where they won't. Some men never
go. Oh it on me, shame
824
01:40:14.000 --> 01:41:14.279
on everywhere. It's all around,
comfort in the crowd, stranger's faces all
825
01:41:14.319 --> 01:41:30.920
around, laughing right outl how I
step light on. Until you've been to
826
01:41:31.039 --> 01:41:51.199
side of man, I don't know
who he knows. On night, shame

One point, you are listening to
the one and only Back to the Eighties
9
00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:59.759
Radio. This is Toscano from Toscano
and Chang. We are bringing you the
10
00:00:59.840 --> 00:01:03.560
new nostalgia from the memories that we
forgot we even had. We're introducing the
11
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:07.640
eighties to a whole new generation.
And we've got a great show for you
12
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:14.280
today because we're going to continue our
talk of top ten greatest songs, but
13
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:19.760
this time it's nineteen eighty three.
We're gonna be mentioning Billboard's top ten,
14
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:25.760
and then we're gonna hit you twice
as hard with Toscano and Chang's picks four
15
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:30.079
nineteen eighty three's top ten songs.
But of course we can't do the show
16
00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:34.719
alone. The man, the myth, and the legend is with us.
17
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:40.799
Some say his skin has the texture
of Gene Simmons Asslin's chaps, and that
18
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:44.400
wherever you are in the world,
if you turn your radio to eighty eight
19
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:49.599
point four you can actually hear his
thoughts. Well here at back to the
20
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:57.879
eighties radio. We know him as
the Chang. All right, the ever
21
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:07.560
so Grace's beautiful Chang is now entering
the courtroom by luft Tuscano. Could you
22
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:13.680
please refer to the jury not to
look at the accused for the remainder of
23
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:16.840
the trial. And I would like
to let everybody know, sitting in the
24
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:24.120
back row with the assless chaps that
all have yes, that uncomfortable g string
25
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:30.599
attached to him. Please notice that
there are magazines under your seats if you
26
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:35.039
get bored, and ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, it is I
27
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:40.159
the Chang, and I am here
with the most famous Italians and Chef Boyard.
28
00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.240
The only man I know that buys
foot see pajamas and cuts off the
29
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:54.439
feet. The only man that I
know buys booty socks with little fuzzy balls
30
00:02:54.960 --> 00:03:02.159
and makes stuffed animals with the fuzzy
balls. My partner in crime and rhyme,
31
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:13.319

you find it? Of course,
the link will be on our Facebook page
67
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.720
and also on our back to the
Eighties radio page. Stick around, because
68
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:50.319
we're on our way to the nineteen
eighties, in particular nineteen eighty three.
69
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:55.399
And oh wait a second, we've
got I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen,
70
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:59.480
sorry to interrupt a program like this, but we've got a special bulletin and
71
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:03.040
I'm sorry. Right now, we
have to go live to our newscatter,
72
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:08.959
our special reporter who's on the scene, Sam I am? Who is live
73
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:14.279
from Hell, Michigan? Sam Tuskey, Hi, Sam I am here.
74
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:23.399
I'm talking here of a former impeached
senator, Sir Cisco Hughes, and we're
75
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:28.160
gonna ask him if he was president
today, what exactly would he change?
76
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.399
Sir Poco? Can I call you, Sir Poco? First of all,
77
00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:35.360
howdy. And the second of all, did you did hear you call me
78
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:43.759
Cisco? My name's Pocco. Of
course you can call me Cisco Francisco.
79
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:48.319
You can also call me Pachuco,
but that's another tang. What seems to
80
00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:53.160
be the problem over there. But
Cuco, Well, we just wanted to
81
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:58.040
get your take. What would you
do differently if you were the president of
82
00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.240
the United States right now in the
every critical time, with the violence,
83
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:11.240
the gasolene hike prices, this terrible
ordeal we are facing with Russia and Ukraine.
84
00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:14.560
What three things do you think you
could do to make it better?
85
00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:17.959
Whoa slow down? Son? If
you're here in Hill, Michigan, I
86
00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:23.199
can tell you how I run things. Don't don't mind. I was impeached,
87
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:28.040
but that's a different story. It's
a little Sunday Sunday evening, a
88
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:31.240
little night out in the town here
by Satan's Hills. Of course. Well,
89
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:35.399
first of all, I say you
bring back public hangings, that's right.
90
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:43.560
Number two, I say you take
everybody's guns away, including the police,
91
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.519
and you bring them over here to
Hill, Michigan, and you put
92
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:54.000
them in my own personal stockpile.
Now regarding the gasoline prices and hikes and
93
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:58.079
all that nitty gritty stuff that nobody
wants to deal with. I could put
94
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:01.360
an end to all of that.
We're why. I'll tell you what I
95
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.480
would do. You cut them people
overseas off. You cut everybody, cut
96
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.319
cut every single country off off.
I don't care from where they're from,
97
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:13.879
anywhere outside of Hell Michigan. Cut
them off. And then you bring all
98
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.439
the petroleum, everything that has petroleum, you bring it to Hell Michigan.
99
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:24.759
We got plenty of land where elevated
eight hundred and eighty six feet above the
100
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.480
beautiful ocean. And by the way, did I ever tell you that the
101
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:35.600
phrase when hell freeze is over came
from here? Praise me to George Reeves,
102
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.639
who moved into the area in eighteen
thirty. One of my questions,
103
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:43.759
sire, you are a crafty son
of a bitch. My first question is
104
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:50.159
do you have any thoughts or ideas
how you could break away from using petroleum
105
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:54.480
which is killing Mother Earth and its
own right on other ways to form a
106
00:08:54.559 --> 00:09:01.840
better Oh? Please, are you
one of those green goblin and dukitty dukes?
107
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:05.039
Oh Mother Earth, this mother Earth? That do you know you can
108
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:11.919
put the entire population of Texas here
in Hell, Michigan. The name is
109
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:16.679
sam I am, Sir. I
am not going to ask you again,
110
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.720
sam I Am. I did not
like no Hags and ham. I like
111
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:26.679
Hell Mi Michigan. Now here's the
thing, mister sam I Am. You're
112
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:33.039
one of them little liberals who probably
only eats greens and doesn't know what a
113
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:37.159
good ribis, steak is and a
good country fright steak. No again,
114
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:43.120
let's stick to the question. Do
you believe in solar power? All right?
115
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.440
So let me let me tell you
one thing at a time. Sun
116
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:50.120
all right, so you referred to
true I am. Okay, mister Miller.
117
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.919
Listen, we you began telling me
something about gasoline. I told you.
118
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:58.200
I told you want to lower the
prices. You want everything to be
119
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.559
green and echoe green and and and
go down the piehole. I can tell
120
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:09.279
you this very whatever would you believe? Listen, here's what I believe in.
121
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:22.080
I believe in a good pair of
legs that could no. No,
122
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.399
no, I I was. I
was. I didn't get to finish my
123
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:28.679
sentence. It's just like the media
never to let a politician finish their sentences
124
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:33.840
and change it. I was gonna
say, it's in context with the me
125
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:37.840
I was gonna say, there's nothing
like a good pair of legs on top
126
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:43.600
of a bicycle where you don't need
no gasoline, just the strength of good
127
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:50.320
old Americana legs, especially if they
come out from the blue velvet or the
128
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:56.120
green oyster over there on the corner. Let's get back to the eighties show
129
00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:01.639
and to Scar with Jake. This
is Savoire am, and I'm reporting to
130
00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:09.559
you from Hell, Michigan with impeach
Senator Hormer, Senator Sir Poco Hughes.
131
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:13.480
Now, mister Hughes, give us
another statement before you say good night to
132
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:16.240
our lovely audience. All right,
As a founder of Hell, Michigan,
133
00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:20.159
George Reeves said when he was asked
what he thought about the town being called
134
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:22.559
Hell, no one knows. This
is your answer. I don't care.
135
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:28.159
Well, mister Hughes, we want
to thank you, We want to thank
136
00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:33.480
but call me sire. POT will
not call you sire. I will call
137
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:39.120
you Sir Poco Hughes. Well,
thank you again for joining the program.
138
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:43.120
Next time we have you on,
I would, I would really urge that
139
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:46.159
you check with your people to make
sure that you get the same contract.
140
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.759
Are you American? Yes, I
am, sir. I am an American,
141
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:54.240
And how American are you? I'm
so American that I believe in all
142
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.360
freedoms and I have the freedom to
say good night to you, sir,
143
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:03.039
and welcome back to the eighties.
In that American is hell, Michigan.
144
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:09.240
Gosh dang Pilgrims. This is a
drink. Listen to the decade of decadence
145
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:16.440
right here, start back to the
eighties. The ladies and gentlemen, welcome
146
00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:22.039
back to the ever so wonderful show
Back to the eighties. We are about
147
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:30.159
to go heads up, imano,
imano, arms to the wall. It's
148
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:35.759
almost time for a musical arm wrestling
match that's coming up later. But no,
149
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.480
everybody, have a drink, sit
down, and get ready as we
150
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:46.480
go over the top ten of the
top one hundred billboard songs from nineteen eighty
151
00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:54.960
three, and we are going to
go for the first five and here they
152
00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:03.919
are number one. Every breath you
take by the police. Why you didn't
153
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:11.440
like that song? I I will
plead the fifth. Oh, because you
154
00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:13.799
gotta be kidding. No, no, okay, okay again, all joke
155
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.080
in his side, because you know
we joke around here quite a bit.
156
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:22.399
You really don't like that song?
That song was a joke, so obviously
157
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:26.679
you love it. Oh, of
course I love the song. It's phenomenal.
158
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:31.120
Tell me why, okay, you
had Why didn't you thought that this
159
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:33.159
song was great? Why do you
not like the song? No, I'm
160
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:39.519
serious. Why do you not like
the song? Well, because it's it
161
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:41.919
was a little bit too you're making
something it was I'm not. I never
162
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:45.639
make things though. You why it
was a little too poppy when it came
163
00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:50.879
out. Oh are you gonna crack
down on every song that's pop because you
164
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.679
only like metal? Scene? Once
again, this proves that I'm right and
165
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:56.279
you're wrong. I'm the one who
loves more music than you do. No,
166
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.480
hey, hey, now you the
other reason I didn't like this song
167
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:05.320
because it was a group by the
name of the Police. I didn't know
168
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:07.480
if they were going to shoot at
me or beat me. So how the
169
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:09.480
hell did I know if they were
going to make a good album. I
170
00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:13.080
thought it was the real Cops.
Well that makes sense, that would make
171
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:18.399
sense. It would be the Rampart
Police. Another good beating deserves a hit
172
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:22.519
Number two. Yeah, that Billy
Jean from the Late Great King of pop
173
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:28.879
Michael Jackson. Now, you can't
say anything negative about Billy Jean. I
174
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:31.080
could, but I won't know.
I know you could, but I want
175
00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:39.480
to say that Michael Jackson's repertoire right
of all the songs he's ever produced and
176
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.720
recorded, I think Billy Jean,
in my opinion, Guy, is his
177
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:48.559
greatest song. Interesting, I do
not concur with you. What do you
178
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.919
know I do like I do like
Michael Jackson. I enjoy those Jackson five
179
00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:58.080
I come from that era. But
we'll just leave it as that that's one
180
00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:01.440
of your favorite songs. That's okay, okay, you not one of my
181
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:09.960
favorite songs. It's my favorite song
of Michael Jackson's entire, entire recording collections.
182
00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:13.480
So out of all his albums,
that's my favorite. Say Thriller,
183
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:20.559
I say Vanilla number three, Flashdance, What a Feeling by Irene Well.
184
00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:24.360
I gotta be honest with you.
I mean the song is okay for a
185
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:28.840
movie. It does not belong anywhere
near it, I mean, nowhere near
186
00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.399
one hundred in the top one hundred
of Billboard. But I will concur with
187
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:37.759
you one percent. And I don't
know if you agree with me, but
188
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:41.519
this song should be ranked five,
O four, probably seven oh two around
189
00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:48.720
there. That's a good number seven, number four down under with no other
190
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:54.120
band. You gotta be kidding us. Minute Work is number four down Under?
191
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.600
Now fire away, please tell tell
me what you think. We both
192
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:03.600
do like the back, yes,
but there's the discrepancy of songs. I
193
00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:08.519
love down Under by Ben at Work. I love the video because it was
194
00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:15.879
just weird. I love the band. We talked about it last week and
195
00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:19.639
everything is different. I mean,
look, remember when we were talking about
196
00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:27.240
how different eighties music every band was, yet they still brought that same spark
197
00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:33.039
of wowness to the table. This
is one of the band's men at Work,
198
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:38.440
and down Under represents probably one of
their best known songs. So in
199
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.759
my opinion, yes, it does
belong way way high up on that list.
200
00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:45.519
Okay, now, I think these
men needed to do a little bit
201
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:51.759
more work on creating a better song
because this song was so bad that I
202
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:56.559
would bury it down under the balls
of hell. You would. And let's
203
00:16:56.559 --> 00:17:02.120
go to number five with beat It. Michael Jackson. Witch is one of
204
00:17:02.120 --> 00:17:08.680
my favorite songs. And Michael Jackson, of course, showing with two top
205
00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:14.960
songs in the top ten list and
eighty three, showing his chops just so
206
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:21.079
versatile in the way he created music. Beat It was a taste of rock,
207
00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:26.359
metal and pop. So where you're
banging your head, you're grinding your
208
00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:33.359
hips and you're dancing around. Nothing
but perfection. It was okay, I
209
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:36.640
mean, you know, well,
beat It was beat It. It was
210
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:40.480
Michael Jackson. You know, he
was great, He was amazing. The
211
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:45.279
song was fantastic. But it's still
you know, I think I think Thriller
212
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.319
was better than beat It. But
that's well, I think you're just angry
213
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:52.559
because he hung around with Macaulay Culkin
and not you. Why don't you go
214
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:56.359
ahead and take the rest of the
list now, from six to ten,
215
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:04.279
yeah, Starting at number six is
a song recorded by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler,
216
00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:10.640
written up James Steinman, released on
Tyler's fifth studio album Faster than Speed,
217
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:14.839
Faster than the Speed of Night in
nineteen eighty three. And that is
218
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:19.559
total eclipse of the heart. Now, this song, this is a type
219
00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:22.759
of song that will make you cry, whether or not you broke up with
220
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.720
somebody or not. Now, I
do have to say, Bonnie Tyler,
221
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.440
she had a gorgeous eyes. She
was a very gorgeous looking woman, great
222
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:34.559
hair, Farah Fawcett, what have
you? She had great hair. That
223
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:41.799
song I didn't care for it because
it made me cry. Number seven,
224
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:48.480
number seven now Here is a duo
that I personally did not like back in
225
00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:51.720
the eighties, and well, take
that back, I liked them. I
226
00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:55.079
liked these songs back in the eighties. I didn't know who they were,
227
00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:57.200
and I would definitely it was just
a little bit older, you know,
228
00:18:57.200 --> 00:19:03.839
I was an older teen back in
the eighties, so this duo wasn't really
229
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:10.039
necessarily my thing. But now now
I love Hall of Notes and the song
230
00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:15.599
is man Eater from their album H
two oh. Number eight is a song
231
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:22.039
from Patty Austin's nineteen eighty one album
Every Home Should Have One. It was
232
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:27.519
a duet with James Ingram, who
you can't forget. James Ingram also appeared
233
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:34.319
on the USA for Africa song of
We Are the World. The album is
234
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:38.839
called Every Home Should Have One.
That's a single by Patty Austen, James
235
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:45.200
Ingram and the song of course it's
called Baby Come to Me. You know
236
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.920
what? That that explains a lot. I don't know who either artists was.
237
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:52.200
I have no idea, what the
hell that song is in the top
238
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:56.279
ten list or I would never listen
to that song. You have got to
239
00:19:56.279 --> 00:20:00.759
be here, you don't you?
Or a football No. I thought he
240
00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:06.559
was an NFL wide receiver. There
was many ingrams of none And you don't
241
00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:08.680
know who Patty Austen's not Patti LaBelle, So how the hell do I know
242
00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:12.960
who she is? Is she's the
daughter of Steve Auston, the Bionic Man.
243
00:20:14.079 --> 00:20:17.039
I have no idea. The song
was performed by Patty Austen, James
244
00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:22.079
Ingram, and Michael McDonald was background
vocals. It was produced by Quincy Jones.
245
00:20:22.119 --> 00:20:25.839
I mean, come on, this
is a huge hit. Well,
246
00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:30.480
you know, everybody has victories and
losses, and I think Quincy Jones nailed
247
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:37.240
a big loss. I think that
song sucked and they did. That song
248
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:41.200
did nothing to me. That song
must have sucked so bad. I don't
249
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:44.279
even know who the hell any of
them are, and I don't care.
250
00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:47.039
I'm sorry, Lady and gentleman,
there's no use with chang it's your song.
251
00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:48.920
Number nine, Ladies and Gentlemen,
is a song from the nineteen eighty
252
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:57.079
three film Flashdance Who once Again,
written by Dennis McCosky and performed by Michaelson
253
00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:03.160
Bello. And this is from the
original soundtrack from the motion picture Flashdowns.
254
00:21:03.880 --> 00:21:08.759
It's it's a great song, but
does it belong even anywhere near the Billboard
255
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:18.799
Top one hundred? I am afraid
not. It's your theme song, coming
256
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:23.319
down to number ten from the Billboard
Top one hundred their top ten list at
257
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:29.279
number ten. Is a song by
British new wave music duo The Arrhythmics from
258
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:33.680
their album Sweet Dreams Are Made of
Now Here's the thing. A lot of
259
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.880
people when they heard the song back
in the eighties, just as I did,
260
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:44.359
we thought it was sweet dreams are
made of these remember that? But
261
00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:49.359
it's sweet dreams are made of this. All I have to say to miss
262
00:21:49.519 --> 00:21:56.680
Lennox, and that is enunciation anyway, Oh Mark, that's all you can
263
00:21:56.720 --> 00:22:04.880
say about the ever so talented vocal
wonders in the female realm of rock and
264
00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:10.839
roll. Annie sexy Lennox come on
and not sexy at all? But what
265
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:15.559
but she was married to Dave Stewart. It's a guitar player. What do
266
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:21.440
you think of that? Good for
them? Wow? You know, I
267
00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:26.279
can't believe it that you would not
like such a great musical talent, such
268
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:32.720
as the r rhythmics. But yet, oh you know all about miss Patty
269
00:22:32.839 --> 00:22:36.839
Austin, whoever the hell she is. And this this James Ingram guy who
270
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:41.079
got cut in the NFL and decided
to make a song. He wasn't from
271
00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:45.480
the NFL. And by the way, by the way, Annie Lennox reminds
272
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:51.880
me of Jane Lynch, the actress
comedian. Do you know who she is?
273
00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.160
She came out in forty year old
Virgin She was, yes, yes,
274
00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:57.960
the boss at the electronic store.
She was a chartie shens, a
275
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:04.319
psychologist. Yes. Uh what was
the name of this his show? I
276
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:11.480
forget winning, That's all I remember
when she was. She was. She's
277
00:23:11.480 --> 00:23:15.640
also hosting the Hollywood Game Night.
Yes, yes, and she's hilarious.
278
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:21.359
Yeah, so yeah, Well that's
who Annie. Okay, well that explains
279
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:25.160
a lot, lad and genermen,
that's who Annie Lennox reminds me. But
280
00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:27.160
anyway, now, do I like
the band? Yes? Do I like
281
00:23:27.359 --> 00:23:30.319
Do I like the song? Yes? Definitely? Does it belong on the
282
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:34.519
top yes, definitely. Does it
belong in the top ten? No,
283
00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:38.319
I don't think so. I can't
tell you this as a bit of a
284
00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:45.079
trivia that Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart
wrote the song after they had broken up,
285
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:49.160
although the two of them continued,
of course, to work together.
286
00:23:51.039 --> 00:23:56.640
They wrote the song Sweet Dreams Are
Made of this. Let's take a quick
287
00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:03.119
breather when we come back. It's

00:30:29.799 --> 00:30:33.200
you could possibly beat my musical choice
there, then you, sir, need
325
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:37.079
to go back to seventy eleven and
get more alcohol to fuel your brain,
326
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:45.240
because I just gave myself a slash
as a number one, number one victory.
327
00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:52.200
Well continue. Not only have I
never heard the song, I'm probably
328
00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:55.160
not even going to hear it even
after we play it here on back to
329
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:59.799
the anyway that goes to tell you
what I think of it? Now,
330
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:03.920
Chang I gotta prepare the way here
because this next song is a Canadian new
331
00:31:03.960 --> 00:31:08.680
wave synth pop band that this is
probably their only hit, and I do
332
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:12.759
recognize it. They had one more
after this one, but the band in
333
00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:18.160
reality, I'm gonna be right up
front with you guys, they well,
334
00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:25.359
they didn't do anything ever again.
However, they are still playing these songs
335
00:31:25.400 --> 00:31:27.319
on the radio. They play them
to death, and guess what. They
336
00:31:27.440 --> 00:31:32.119
play them on TV, they play
them on movies, they play them everywhere
337
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:37.279

ask everybody taking the child, say to

00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:58.559
making the time. We will save
the dance. They ain't saved the dance.
359
00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:23.000
Well, that was a safety dance
here, I'm back to the eighties
360
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:29.159
radio by Men Without Hats, you
know, the writer and the lead singer,
361
00:34:29.559 --> 00:34:36.880
Ivan Doroschook explained that the safety dancing
is a protest against bouncers prohibiting dancers
362
00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:42.519
from po going to the to nineteen
eighties new wave music and clubs, when
363
00:34:42.559 --> 00:34:46.000
disco was declining and new wave was
coming in? Did you know that it
364
00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:52.280
was? It was a protest against
bouncers prohibiting dancers. How do you like
365
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:54.800
that? Did? I bet you
didn't know that. I didn't know that
366
00:34:55.000 --> 00:34:59.880
because the midget freaked me out so
much I didn't I couldn't even finished watch
367
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:05.599
in the video. Amazing that bad
Taste was so popular back then, and
368
00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:07.599
it's proving that bad Taste is alive
and well. Of anyone that liked that
369
00:35:07.719 --> 00:35:16.800
song, please, that's long out

375
00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:58.800
home with nineteen eighty three's January release
off of the album Money and Cigarettes.
376
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:09.880

393
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:12.480
of the United States, peaking at
number eighteen on the Billboard Top One under
394
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:19.320
tit in nineteen eighty three. It
also reached numeral space number six on the
395
00:39:19.440 --> 00:39:25.760
Adult Contemporary chart that same year.
This man KOed it with this song in
396
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:32.079
two different type genres of music.
Therefore, here's another chop for me,
397
00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:36.800
number two. That's a double win
right there for me. Thank you,
398
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:40.039
Thank you, ladies. All right, let's take a little breather here,
399
00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:44.039
let's take a quick break. When
we come back, there's more of de
400
00:39:44.079 --> 00:39:55.119
Scottowan changing back to the eighties with
our top nineteen eighty three songs. Do
401
00:39:55.199 --> 00:40:01.119
you remember the first time you tried
these games space fuck with practice cop y'alex
402
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:05.360
see and when you first try and
coke and you said no, thank you,
403
00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:10.679
But hey, let's try coke again, because once you got that new
404
00:40:10.719 --> 00:40:14.000
wave of taste, do you want
to try it again again and again?
405
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:21.239
No practice cuts the way cocago,
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Shadow Stevens,
406
00:40:21.320 --> 00:40:25.159
and you must listen to back to
the eighties radio. It's the law.
407
00:40:28.679 --> 00:40:30.840
We are back here and back to
the eighties radio, and so are you.
408
00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:37.880
And I'm almost finished with my quick
knockout of nineteen eighty three songs.
409
00:40:37.960 --> 00:40:42.719
And you know, I just I
just have to admit it, and of
410
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:45.559
course you're gonna say, you know
what, Chang's choosing songs that nobody's ever
411
00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:51.440
heard and nobody wants to. That's
what makes his list so special because they're
412
00:40:51.760 --> 00:40:55.519
they're unknowns, and that's what we
need today from great artists, unknown music.
413
00:40:55.599 --> 00:41:02.280
And I agree with you that they
are great artist fantastic artists with unknown
414
00:41:02.360 --> 00:41:08.280
songs. Okay, now for my
number four, Ladies and gentlemen, is
415
00:41:08.599 --> 00:41:16.079
a is a genius of music.
My next song is going to knock your
416
00:41:16.159 --> 00:41:22.000
list just done. You're done.
You should just drop out, even before
417
00:41:22.039 --> 00:41:27.880
you hear the name of the artist
Chang. But this song originally peaked at
418
00:41:27.920 --> 00:41:30.519
forty four on the Billboard Top one
hundred in December nineteen eighty two. It
419
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:37.679
rereleased later and it reached number twelve
in the US, and it rereleased again
420
00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:44.079
in nineteen eighty five and it reached
number two in the UK. From the
421
00:41:44.239 --> 00:41:52.159
album nineteen ninety nine, The One
and Only Grinds on Back to the Eighties
422
00:41:52.840 --> 00:42:22.920
Radio, I was on this fucking

00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:43.199

thousand to two body every time, such
434
00:44:55.320 --> 00:45:47.719
to like we done nineteen nine,
nineteen ninete. That was nineteen ninety nine
435
00:45:47.960 --> 00:45:52.400
by Prince on Back to the Eighties
Radio. I told you this, you
436
00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:57.960
know what chang Rolling Stone ranked it
at three thirty nine on their list of
437
00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:02.360
the five hundred greatest songs of all
time. How do you know what?
438
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:07.079
Anything with Prince should probably get I
think ranked a lot higher than it does.
439
00:46:08.440 --> 00:46:13.840
Prince was an incredible songwriter, an
incredible guitar player, a lot of
440
00:46:13.840 --> 00:46:16.920
people don't realize that I the guy
could write great music. The guy could
441
00:46:17.000 --> 00:46:21.760
do anything in high hill shoes.
I mean that was a wizard. He
442
00:46:21.880 --> 00:46:24.480
was one of my favorite guitar players. All props to him. It was
443
00:46:24.719 --> 00:46:28.960
we live in a very sad world
music world, knowing that we do not
444
00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:34.639
have the likes of Eddie van Halen, Prince, Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson.
445
00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:40.800
Some critics have suggested that this song
nineteen and nineteen eighty five Phil Collins
446
00:46:40.840 --> 00:46:46.119
Sue Studio, sounded very, very
similar. So I don't know if there's
447
00:46:46.159 --> 00:46:51.480
something there or not, but that's
interesting. And now you are on back
448
00:46:51.760 --> 00:46:54.079
to the Edies radio right here at
Kah's not at two five, and let's
449
00:46:54.119 --> 00:46:59.800
go ahead and spin a tune that
had all the partiogoers keeping their ass as
450
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:07.079
this is no other than after the
fire rank at number thirty day Comma saw

474
00:52:09.440 --> 00:52:25.400
Command down. You were back with
back to the eighties radio. That
475
00:52:27.039 --> 00:52:30.920
was a great song. That song
takes me back to go into the backyard
476
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:34.639
parties. I think that song was
played at every dance, backyard party,
477
00:52:35.280 --> 00:52:40.920
uh in high school football games,
flower making parties, proms, first dances,
478
00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:45.400
that song and you know I'm a
rock and roller, but that song,
479
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:47.559
Man, every time that song came
on, you knew all the eighties
480
00:52:47.679 --> 00:52:52.199
ladies and the big hair chicks were
gonna hit the dance floor. You had
481
00:52:52.239 --> 00:52:57.880
the guys with their rolled up shirts
of the barber kind of barber shop looking
482
00:52:57.920 --> 00:53:00.559
shirt to remember with the bold stripes, and you know the college shirts.
483
00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:04.559
My buddies used to wear a lot
of those disco shirts. That was I
484
00:53:04.679 --> 00:53:07.719
used to call that disco were But
man, that song, that song just
485
00:53:07.880 --> 00:53:12.719
totally takes me back to eighty three, which is a great year because the
486
00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:17.559
changma I graduated from Montabello High School
in nineteen eighty three, A nineteen eighty
487
00:53:17.639 --> 00:53:22.239
three a great year, and that
is another that is another chalk for me
488
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:28.039
as in victory. Therefore, the
score is four to one chang right right,
489
00:53:28.159 --> 00:53:30.400
Well, okay, like I said
during the break, it's free.
490
00:53:30.639 --> 00:53:36.840
There's no charge to dream, and
you are a great dreamer anyway, Dirk
491
00:53:36.880 --> 00:53:40.199
Komazar is a great song. I
was going to choose that for my own
492
00:53:40.239 --> 00:53:45.679
list. I told you during the
break. Did you know that Falco when
493
00:53:45.119 --> 00:53:51.159
he got the song, the song
had been recorded as a pop rock song
494
00:53:51.519 --> 00:53:53.719
and they said, yeah, it's
a little too soft, it's a little
495
00:53:53.760 --> 00:53:58.599
too slow, and Falco said,
you know what, I'll record it for
496
00:53:58.800 --> 00:54:05.360
me. He rerecorded it and it
became a smashing success and then they even
497
00:54:05.440 --> 00:54:09.119
recorded it in German and other countries
as well. So yeah, great,
498
00:54:09.199 --> 00:54:13.320
great song Falco. Who would you
not say that song? The way he
499
00:54:13.440 --> 00:54:16.039
slid in some of the rock chords, I mean, it just it was
500
00:54:16.159 --> 00:54:21.280
menacing when you heard it on a
party system, you know what I mean,
501
00:54:21.360 --> 00:54:24.159
going going to a backyard party and
you heard the DEJOI crank that I
502
00:54:24.239 --> 00:54:27.960
mean it was just like, I
mean, everybody would hit the dance floor.
503
00:54:28.639 --> 00:54:31.840
It was almost like that that song
Madness put out. There were certain
504
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:36.559
songs back in the eighties when you
were at a backyard party that would just
505
00:54:36.639 --> 00:54:38.960
bring everybody's ass out there, and
it was that, to me, is
506
00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:45.679
one of those great songs. My
number three actually is on Billboard's Top ten
507
00:54:45.800 --> 00:54:47.480
lists, in number two. Well
wait a minute, wait, are you
508
00:54:47.599 --> 00:54:51.800
implying that I stole this somewhere?
I just pulled it out of my ass.
509
00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:54.800
Well no, but you you accidentally
got another point, so that gives
510
00:54:54.840 --> 00:54:59.519
you two. But that's okay,
You're just angry. I got I took
511
00:54:59.559 --> 00:55:05.840
it here. He My number three
is Billboards number two, and I'm talking
512
00:55:05.880 --> 00:55:10.119
about the man who needs no introduction, the King of Pop himself from the
513
00:55:10.239 --> 00:55:17.039
album Thriller. From the album Thriller
Michael Jackson with Billy Jean on the One
514
00:55:17.079 --> 00:55:42.559
and Only Back to the Eighties radio, she was more like Queen, I
515
00:55:42.800 --> 00:56:05.719
move suit, Do you mean no
wild who round? She took me arning
516
00:56:06.119 --> 00:56:10.840

my cheese, chairs and my moms.
527
00:58:30.000 --> 00:59:57.440
She said, the chair, the
chair, my chan You know this is
528
00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:00.360
back to the eighties radio. That's
Billy Jean from Michael Jackson from his album
529
01:00:00.800 --> 01:00:07.679
Thriller, and I gotta tell you
man, just this song alone destroys your
530
01:00:07.840 --> 01:00:10.760
entire list, as I always destroy
your lists. But you know what,
531
01:00:13.239 --> 01:00:16.360
so far nineteen eighty three has shown
me that as the years progress in the
532
01:00:16.559 --> 01:00:22.480
eighties, it keeps getting better and
better. I mean, now, on
533
01:00:22.599 --> 01:00:25.480
a serious note, doesn't it seem
like as you progress in the eighties,
534
01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:30.880
songs. Just keep getting better.
Artists that were from the seventies, just
535
01:00:31.079 --> 01:00:36.840
keep writing mega, mega hits in
the eighties. Now, are you done
536
01:00:36.880 --> 01:00:42.280
patting yourself on the back for a
Well, that was a question to you.
537
01:00:43.000 --> 01:00:46.239
That was a question to you.
You don't even answer my question.
538
01:00:46.719 --> 01:00:52.960
I had whiskey night. I don't
even know why I asked. I know
539
01:00:53.039 --> 01:00:57.440
the answer was already talking myself on. I didn't hear the question. I
540
01:00:57.599 --> 01:01:04.000
apologize. I was taking a shot. I was, yeah, I packing
541
01:01:04.239 --> 01:01:07.800
some medicine, and all of a
sudden I heard you boasting about victory.
542
01:01:07.840 --> 01:01:12.239
And then I was like, he
just there's no need to listen to his
543
01:01:12.360 --> 01:01:17.119
rhetoric, So please please tell me
ask me that question. Well, you
544
01:01:17.199 --> 01:01:20.400
know what I'm gonna do. I'm
gonna do better than that. Instead of
545
01:01:20.440 --> 01:01:24.199
asking a question, I'll just keep
doing my rhetoric. The lyrics of Billy
546
01:01:24.320 --> 01:01:30.239
Jean describe a woman by the name
of Billy Jean who claims that the narrator
547
01:01:30.320 --> 01:01:34.159
of the song is the father of
her newborn son, which he denies.
548
01:01:35.199 --> 01:01:39.840
Michael Jackson said that the lyrics were
based on groupies claiming about his older brothers
549
01:01:40.239 --> 01:01:45.840
when he toured with him as the
Jackson five. So that is a bit
550
01:01:45.880 --> 01:01:51.599
of information that just destroyed your entire
list from here till nineteen. You know
551
01:01:51.679 --> 01:01:53.000
what, I thought? He was
singing a billy Jean King, the former
552
01:01:53.079 --> 01:01:58.119
tennis player. But that just goes
to show you how I'm row was incorrect.
553
01:01:58.719 --> 01:02:01.599
Now are you ready for as you
are about your as you are about
554
01:02:01.599 --> 01:02:05.679
your winning? You left ready?
Are you ready to get smashed upside the
555
01:02:05.719 --> 01:02:08.440
head with a chang bang? I'm
ready because nothing you can do from now
556
01:02:08.519 --> 01:02:14.239
I will even come close to me
on my next track off of the Billboard
557
01:02:14.559 --> 01:02:21.320
Top one hundred smash and Grab Hits
of nineteen eighty three has to fall upon
558
01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:29.239
number forty two, and number forty
two falls in because I don't father chasing

a baby, I'm playing broke. I

okay, mister President. Anything else
I want to do me a favorite?
577
01:06:28.760 --> 01:06:33.039
Let's do a capital run for my
number two. I went all the
578
01:06:33.119 --> 01:06:39.719
way to the UK. This band
is very elegant, to say the least.
579
01:06:40.599 --> 01:06:45.000
It is a band. They came
up with an album on April fifteenth
580
01:06:45.679 --> 01:06:49.440
that went worldwide, peaking at number
one in the UK Singles, and it
581
01:06:49.639 --> 01:06:58.079
also became this band's number one hit
in the US, reaching number four on
582
01:06:58.159 --> 01:07:01.760
the Billboard Hot one hundred in the
autumn of nineteen eighty three and topping the
583
01:07:01.800 --> 01:07:05.679
Adult Contemporary chart for one week.
And it received a b in My Award
584
01:07:05.760 --> 01:07:11.119
as one of the most played songs
in US and world history. From the
585
01:07:11.239 --> 01:07:46.079
album True by Spandout Ballet on Back
to the Eighties Radio, So True,
586
01:07:47.280 --> 01:07:59.360
funny, how it seems always in
time? But never mind for dreams to
587
01:08:00.039 --> 01:08:12.119
ohto? That says the same?
That says the side, why ticket to
588
01:08:12.400 --> 01:08:21.000
the world, But now I've come
back again? Why do I find it?
589
01:08:21.199 --> 01:08:27.399
How to right? The next line? Oh, I want to say,
590
01:08:33.239 --> 01:08:58.399
I don't much. I don't much. True, We're a frill in
591
01:08:58.600 --> 01:09:08.840
my hand and a bill of my
open that just be gone listening to my
592
01:09:09.600 --> 01:09:27.279
man. This is the same side, always sipping from my hand and the
593
01:09:27.479 --> 01:09:34.920
time of do take Yoursie? That
out the right the next side? Oh,
594
01:09:35.199 --> 01:10:57.640
I know, I know, But
now I'll come back again? Why
595
01:11:00.159 --> 01:12:27.520
film no, no smart, Smart, I'm not It's been own ballet with
596
01:12:27.760 --> 01:12:31.800
True I'm Back to the Eighties Radio, released in nineteen eighty three. Oh
597
01:12:31.960 --> 01:12:34.119
What a song. When this song
comes out, I mean, this song
598
01:12:34.239 --> 01:12:40.319
is responsible for lovers everywhere around the
world. It's been in movies, it's
599
01:12:40.399 --> 01:12:45.439
been in video games, it's been
in so many things. I mean,
600
01:12:45.239 --> 01:12:49.399
it's a tribute. Believe it or
not. This pays tribute to the Motown
601
01:12:49.560 --> 01:12:56.359
artist Marvin Gay, who's mentioned in
the lyrics. Really would that be?
602
01:12:56.680 --> 01:12:59.479
But you didn't know? No?
Would that be? The opening lyric where
603
01:12:59.520 --> 01:13:05.720
the three in my head and appeal? Now you know what? Now?
604
01:13:05.800 --> 01:13:10.960
I did go see this band,
and I took my girlfriend at the present,
605
01:13:11.359 --> 01:13:14.560
at that present time, to go
see this band. Wait a second,
606
01:13:14.640 --> 01:13:16.600
you actually paid to go see yeah, because I was trying to get
607
01:13:16.720 --> 01:13:19.680
laid. So you have to understand
how that worked. Back then, you
608
01:13:19.800 --> 01:13:23.840
gotta give a little to get up. Of course, give a little to
609
01:13:24.000 --> 01:13:28.279
get Did you actually pay attention to
what you were listening to? Oddly enough,
610
01:13:28.720 --> 01:13:31.039
I paid attention just for that one
song, and then I gave her
611
01:13:31.039 --> 01:13:33.560
a big hug, and you know, I gotta I gotta reach around,
612
01:13:33.600 --> 01:13:38.159
and I uh. I proceeded to
the restaurant, where I cried myself,
613
01:13:38.359 --> 01:13:44.039
going why am I here? I
was the only long haired guy in a
614
01:13:44.159 --> 01:13:48.720
leather jacket at that concert good times. Are you ready for the Chang's numeratal
615

for the five Chang Bang Tunes from the
617
01:14:04.079 --> 01:14:13.359
nineteen eighty three Billboard Top one hundred
Smashing Hits. And this song comes in
618
01:14:14.119 --> 01:14:20.720
from number fifty one in the long
list. And that is no other than
619
01:14:21.279 --> 01:14:27.640
Goody two Shoes, which do debuted
as a solo single by adam Ant,
620

01:18:53.880 --> 01:18:57.720
the show sound sucked, and it
sucks today. That's why you never hear
655
01:18:57.760 --> 01:19:00.560
it today. Oh brother, and
that album Friend or Foe with him sniffing
656
01:19:00.600 --> 01:19:05.239
a rose. Let me give you
my number five because this nineteen eighty three,
657
01:19:05.319 --> 01:19:09.399
and you know what I thought,
sincerely, I thought that you were
658
01:19:09.439 --> 01:19:15.720
really going to win this time.
But having lost nineteen eighty nineteen eighty one,
659
01:19:15.319 --> 01:19:19.279
you won nineteen eighty No, you
won nineteen eighty one, but you
660
01:19:19.399 --> 01:19:25.239
lost nineteen eighty and eighty two and
you're about to lose nineteen eighty three.
661
01:19:26.439 --> 01:19:31.319
This was definitely definitely your worst year. And I don't know, I don't
662
01:19:31.319 --> 01:19:34.119
know, but you know what,
I can't say that I was surprised.
663
01:19:34.680 --> 01:19:39.479
I can't say that for my number
five. Ladies and Gentlemen is a song
664
01:19:39.600 --> 01:19:45.119
by a British pop and ska band
were released as the lead single from their
665
01:19:45.159 --> 01:19:49.640
fourth studio album, The Rise and
Fall on November twelfth, nineteen eighty two.
666
01:19:50.119 --> 01:19:54.199
The song charted within the top ten
in several countries and it was the
667
01:19:54.279 --> 01:19:59.119
band's biggest hit, and it continues
to be their biggest hit and it will
668
01:19:59.199 --> 01:20:04.159
continue to be one of my favorite
forever songs on this earth. It's madness,
669
01:20:04.800 --> 01:20:08.359
the Rice and Fall. This is
our house. I'm back to the

our house. By madness and h ladies
688
01:23:21.000 --> 01:23:25.520
and gentlemen. I want to thank
you in advance for all the beautiful comments
689
01:23:25.560 --> 01:23:31.720
you've been dropping by Twitter and by
Facebook direct message telling us how I won
690
01:23:33.399 --> 01:23:39.439
this just hands down, and I
really appreciate it. But I already knew
691
01:23:39.479 --> 01:23:44.800
this, so that was a given. But this song, Madness, this
692
01:23:44.960 --> 01:23:49.119
song Our House by Madness chang on
a serious note, I love this song.
693
01:23:49.560 --> 01:23:53.680
I let me put it to this
way. This is something you have
694
01:23:53.720 --> 01:23:56.319
a tattoo of this song title on
your use. But you know what,
695
01:23:56.399 --> 01:23:59.920
if I could, I would,
I just don't have a tattoo artist that's
696
01:24:00.079 --> 01:24:02.680
daring enough. I can tell you
this though on a very serious note.
697
01:24:02.720 --> 01:24:06.960
Though serious, serious note, all
joking aside. When I hear this song
698
01:24:08.479 --> 01:24:15.560
our House, it's the only song
that brings back more memories from the early
699
01:24:15.640 --> 01:24:19.479
early eighties, of course than any
other song, partly because when the song
700
01:24:19.600 --> 01:24:25.319
came out, my cousin and I
used to play that we were radio DJs
701
01:24:25.760 --> 01:24:30.000
and we used to record each other. Remember those recorders, those portable recorders
702
01:24:30.039 --> 01:24:33.760
that you put the tape on the
top and they had a handle you actually
703
01:24:33.800 --> 01:24:39.239
could carry the tape recorder. So
he had one of those, and we
704
01:24:39.319 --> 01:24:43.439
would pretend we were on K rock
listening to or we were part of the
705
01:24:43.560 --> 01:24:46.960
love line, and when the song
our House would come on, brother,
706
01:24:47.039 --> 01:24:53.079
I can tell you that that's the
song that brings back more eighties memories than
707
01:24:53.279 --> 01:24:57.760
any other song from the eighties.
It brings back so many fond memories,
708
01:24:58.159 --> 01:25:01.920
so many great memories to me when
you say our House by Madness, it
709
01:25:02.119 --> 01:25:08.119
is the epitome of the eighties in
a much happier time for me personally,
710
01:25:08.720 --> 01:25:12.279
because during that time it was just
such a happy time in my life.
711
01:25:13.119 --> 01:25:15.319
You know what, Now I'm going
to hit you with my bonus track,
712
01:25:15.399 --> 01:25:18.279
and this is This song is so
epic and comes from such a great legend
713
01:25:18.800 --> 01:25:28.039
who not only started his own style
and music and fashion and acting, but
714
01:25:29.000 --> 01:25:34.439
married a model, a beautiful model, continued with his career in so many
715
01:25:34.560 --> 01:25:41.199
different fashions with different bands. Every
time he created a new album had a
716
01:25:41.279 --> 01:25:45.199
different look, a different feel,
a different sound. I'm talking about the
717
01:25:45.359 --> 01:25:50.479
legendary late great mister David Bowie who
came in with this song number sixty two.
718
01:25:51.199 --> 01:26:15.119
China Girl, My curscape is feel
It's my chan ground, I feel
719
01:26:15.279 --> 01:26:31.279
a wreck without mind little Channa Grave
her hard leading loudunder, soully stars crushing
720
01:26:35.840 --> 01:26:48.039
my mist without my little channel ground
wick up, It's my little chime ground
721
01:26:50.600 --> 01:27:05.279
her heart beating. Lord is under
a soul is star is CHRISTI a fume,
722
01:27:05.600 --> 01:27:25.119
trudged like Mom Brandon window God not
chunk thing I really meant to my
723
01:27:25.399 --> 01:27:51.760
check when I look at my chunk
of a stumble inser sound just like a
724
01:27:53.039 --> 01:28:19.560

725
01:28:19.800 --> 01:28:32.119
should be nice with me. I'll
ruin everything. I'll give you tell the
726
01:28:33.640 --> 01:28:40.680
I'll give your eyes a blow.
I'll give you a man, a wife,
727
01:28:40.960 --> 01:28:49.600
the room, the world. I
will my good exciting my little China
728
01:28:49.760 --> 01:29:49.680
burdens. Baby. Just you shut
your house, she says. She's I
729
01:29:49.800 --> 01:29:55.199
have nothing but admigration and love for
David Bowie. This song, China Girl,
730
01:29:55.479 --> 01:30:00.600
it's very funny. It was written
by Iggy Pop and David Bowie during
731
01:30:00.680 --> 01:30:08.279
the years in Berlin, first appearing
on a pop debut solo called The Idiot
732
01:30:08.319 --> 01:30:13.920
in seventy seven. But this song
was, I mean totally phenomenal. It
733
01:30:14.399 --> 01:30:18.880
ranked also number two in the UK
as well as it did on the Billboard
734
01:30:19.439 --> 01:30:25.800
Top chart. As we have here. It was number one for four on
735
01:30:26.199 --> 01:30:32.000
week number fourteen. During June.
The US release reached number ten at all
736
01:30:32.199 --> 01:30:40.800
time hits, and you know people
buying that album. Mister David Bowie a
737
01:30:41.000 --> 01:30:45.039
legend in his own right now.
China Girl was a song that a lot
738
01:30:45.079 --> 01:30:49.079
of my buddies in high school would
mock me with because I received the name
739
01:30:49.199 --> 01:30:55.159
Chang in high school. So whenever
this song came on, my buddies used
740
01:30:55.199 --> 01:30:59.920
to like to sing it to me
and recite in front of my Japanese girlfriend,
741
01:31:00.119 --> 01:31:02.439
which you know, they were good
times, good memories, a great
742
01:31:02.479 --> 01:31:05.640
song. There. I beat you. You can't beat David Bowie. You
743
01:31:05.720 --> 01:31:12.039
can't when asked Nile Rogers, the
producer of David Bowie's nineteen eighty three version
744
01:31:12.079 --> 01:31:15.239
of the song, he was asked
about the song, and he said,
745
01:31:15.319 --> 01:31:18.680
you know what, Originally I figured
that China Girl was about doing drugs because
746
01:31:18.800 --> 01:31:24.640
China is a China White, which
is heroine, so the girl is cocaine,
747
01:31:25.640 --> 01:31:29.319
he said. I thought it was
a song about speedballing. I thought
748
01:31:29.520 --> 01:31:31.600
in the drug community in New York, Cooke as a girl and heroin as
749
01:31:31.600 --> 01:31:36.279
a boy. So then I proceeded
to do this arrangement, which was ultra
750
01:31:36.359 --> 01:31:41.000
pop, because I thought that being
you know, David Bowie, he would
751
01:31:41.000 --> 01:31:45.640
appreciate the irony of doing something so
pop about something so taboo. So that
752
01:31:45.920 --> 01:31:48.640
is a bit of trivia and I
gotta, I gotta look, I gotta
753
01:31:48.640 --> 01:31:51.359
hand it to you. That was
a that was a pretty good strike.
754
01:31:53.680 --> 01:31:57.720
Unfortunately, if you were in a
boxing ring, you would have struck my
755
01:31:57.880 --> 01:32:01.000
shoulder and it would have been my
left one, not my right one,
756
01:32:01.560 --> 01:32:05.840
not my power shoulder. So you're
doomed, my friend, because I would
757
01:32:05.840 --> 01:32:09.840
have missed your power shoulder. You
would have missed only because you were turned
758
01:32:09.880 --> 01:32:14.239
around. Patting yourself is correct,
correct, and I pat myself. You
759
01:32:14.279 --> 01:32:17.199
would have already you would have been
proclaiming victory, and I would have missed
760
01:32:17.239 --> 01:32:21.439
the landing knockout shot. This is
the knockout shot My bonus round Song is
761
01:32:21.479 --> 01:32:30.279
a song written, recorded, and
produced by another British singer and songwriter.
762
01:32:30.039 --> 01:32:36.279
He released his nineteen eighty two album
Killer on the Rampage in the United States
763
01:32:36.359 --> 01:32:41.760
with the help of course of MTV. It was one of the biggest hits
764
01:32:41.800 --> 01:32:46.319
of nineteen eighty three. The song
refers to an avenue in London called Electric
765
01:32:47.199 --> 01:32:54.720
from the Killer on the Rampage album, Mister Eddie Grant with Electric Avenue on
766
01:32:54.840 --> 01:33:08.439
the one and only back to the
eighties radio By now in the streets,
767
01:33:08.479 --> 01:33:16.319
there is violence and then a laugh. So done no place another washing,
768
01:33:17.359 --> 01:33:21.880
and then I can't pay all on
the sound. Oh no, we're gonna
769
01:33:23.079 --> 01:33:30.000
run down to heal shake our venue
and then we'll take it higher. Oh,
770
01:33:30.199 --> 01:33:34.760
we're gonna run down to heal shake
our venue and then we'll take it
771
01:33:34.960 --> 01:33:46.319
higher. Working so hard as a
soldier can't afford a thing unto me deep
772
01:33:46.399 --> 01:33:54.560
in my heart eye a boria can't
get foot the good start. We gonna
773
01:33:54.760 --> 01:34:00.439
run down to heal a shrike venue
and then we'll take it high. Ho.
774
01:34:00.880 --> 01:34:06.319
We donna run down to heal a
trick a venue and then we'll take
775
01:34:06.399 --> 01:34:21.199

01:34:30.119 --> 01:34:38.039
it higher. Ho. We donna
run down to get a trick avenue and
778
01:34:38.239 --> 01:34:44.479
then we'll take it higher. Who
is to blame? In one country?
779
01:34:45.199 --> 01:34:55.319
Never can get to the one dealing
in mondification, and they still can't beat
780
01:34:55.439 --> 01:35:00.760
everyone. Oh no, we gonna

782
01:35:08.079 --> 01:35:15.359
trick a venue and then we'll take
it higher. Out in the street,
783
01:35:17.119 --> 01:35:28.680
out in the street, out in
the deadhime out in the night. Oh,

786
01:35:41.560 --> 01:35:50.000
then we'll take it higher. Out
in the street, out in the street,
787
01:35:53.680 --> 01:36:05.760
out in the blackground? Is that
that side of town? High up?
788
01:36:29.600 --> 01:36:31.600
We're back here, back to the
eighties radio. That was Electric Avenue
789
01:36:31.680 --> 01:36:35.880
by Eddie Grant. The song title
refers to Electric Avenue in the south of
790
01:36:35.960 --> 01:36:42.560
London's district of Brixton, which was
the first market street to be lit by
791
01:36:42.720 --> 01:36:46.720
electricity, and according to Grant,
he first became aware of the street's existence
792
01:36:46.880 --> 01:36:54.159
during a stinct acting at Black Theater
of Brixton. So now, of course
793
01:36:54.239 --> 01:37:00.479
that area is known for a high
population in Caribbean immigrants, but the beginning
794
01:37:00.520 --> 01:37:05.119
of the eighties it was identified as
Electric Avenue. How do you like?
795
01:37:05.239 --> 01:37:09.720
You know? That was a crazy
song. You know, if you think
796
01:37:09.840 --> 01:37:14.319
Eddie Grant can beat David Boye,
then you know what you've been drinking and
797
01:37:14.760 --> 01:37:17.560
been on a motorcycle without a helmet
way too long there. Put that on
798
01:37:17.680 --> 01:37:24.199
the show, Put that on the
show. Oh my gosh, guys,
799
01:37:24.319 --> 01:37:28.039
thank you for joining us here back
to the eighties. It's been an awesome
800
01:37:28.159 --> 01:37:32.520
time. We always always have a
great time reminiscing about the good, the
801
01:37:32.640 --> 01:37:35.239
good parts of the eighties and even
the bad parts. You know what,
802
01:37:35.720 --> 01:37:40.600
It's what made our life a soundtrack. So let's bring the soundtrack to a
803
01:37:40.680 --> 01:37:43.600
newer generation, both the good and
the bad. That's what we're here for.
804
01:37:43.840 --> 01:37:46.720
So see you next week. For

I release you to another changtastic weekend,
807
01:37:55.079 --> 01:37:58.960
I want you all to remember to
stay lifted and gifted. Everybody out there
808
01:37:59.319 --> 01:38:02.840
matters you all count uh, stand
up for something bigger than yourself, stand
809
01:38:02.960 --> 01:38:08.000
up for somebody that can't, and
remember to always keep a smile on your
810
01:38:08.000 --> 01:38:11.399
face. If you like what we're
doing here, please share the program.
811
01:38:11.920 --> 01:38:15.760
I'm gonna take you out with one
song, and that song is number fourteen
812
01:38:15.920 --> 01:38:20.000
on the Top one hundred Billboard charts, and that is Shame on the Moon
813
01:38:20.159 --> 01:38:25.079
by Bob Sieger and the Silver Bullet
Band. You keep it locked and loaded.
814
01:38:25.319 --> 01:38:28.560
We'll see you next week. Until
then, I bid you an adios.
815
01:38:29.119 --> 01:38:36.039
Sayonara rista la vista asta manana asta
luego, and to all my bros
816
01:38:36.119 --> 01:38:45.479
indoc later buds, and to all
my homies across this land. Or until
817
01:38:45.520 --> 01:38:54.840
you've been to sadem man, you
don't know what he wants. You don't
818
01:38:54.920 --> 01:39:03.159
know if you cross it. Man, don't know if you don't when nothing
819
01:39:03.359 --> 01:39:16.439
becomes easy, old nightmares alreath.
Until you've been beside a man, you
820
01:39:16.640 --> 01:39:29.880
don't know how he feels. Once
inside a woman's heart, a man must
821
01:39:30.039 --> 01:39:40.239
keep his head. Heavn opens up
the door well, angels fear to trail.
822
01:39:43.199 --> 01:39:53.520
Some men go praisey, some men
go slow, Some men go just
823
01:39:53.720 --> 01:40:13.840
where they won't. Some men never
go. Oh it on me, shame
824
01:40:14.000 --> 01:41:14.279
on everywhere. It's all around,
comfort in the crowd, stranger's faces all
825
01:41:14.319 --> 01:41:30.920
around, laughing right outl how I
step light on. Until you've been to
826
01:41:31.039 --> 01:41:51.199
side of man, I don't know
who he knows. On night, shame
827
01:41:51.319 --> 01:42:21.319
on the moon are playing it on
me, shame on, m let on,
828
01:42:21.560 --> 01:43:06.680
midnight, blind on shine shin,
shame on, shame Take me back
829
01:43:08.000 --> 01:43:13.960
into the cold day at three days, take me back and I want to
830
01:43:14.079 --> 01:43:21.800
go and three take me back till
night. My mind's already time. Whoa,
831
01:43:23.239 --> 01:43:29.199
the end for my control, back
to
