Now when you listen, please be sure

26
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:05.200
to give us a review, because
we really honestly need you guys just to

27
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:07.120
go on over there, set aside
a little bit of your time and give

28
00:02:07.199 --> 00:02:13.280
us a nice, juicy review.
Of course, we can't do this show

29
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:16.759
alone, because ladies and gentlemen with
us is a man that still uses Fannie

30
00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:22.840
packs just to stash away his smaller
Fannie pack. Some people have even seen

31
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.919
him trying to impersonate Lemmy from Motorhead, trying to get into the whiskey a

32
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.039
go go in Hollywood just to get
in to play his favorite video game,

33
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:37.240
sit at his table and get free
drinks. But here add back to the

34
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:44.960
eighties radio, we call him Zichang. Well, I gotta tell you I've

35
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:49.719
gone to the grind now men the
rewind, just like everybody else out there.

36
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:57.680
Wishing you all a glorious chang terrific
Friday, as I sit here with

37
00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:04.479
my second most favorite Italian human being
of all time, now, my first

38
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:12.120
most favorite Italian human being that I
ever cast my eyes upon, tasted his

39
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:19.240
love that embarked perfection in my mind, no other than Chef Boyard. But

40
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:25.080
no, I was stricken with that
Italian gaze, almost very similar to Lady

41
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:31.479
in the Tramp. I don't instead
of spaghetti and a meatball. We shared

42
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:37.080
the experience of writing jokes. I
want to take a moment to give some

43
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:39.599
shout outs, of course, and
mentioned a few people that really made my

44
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:46.199
day this week. A first shout
out goes to the Sinus Music on YouTube.

45
00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:51.479
That's see y n Us Music on
YouTube. He's a younger guy,

46
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:55.719
a millennial as a matter of fact, who posted a video commentary on another

47
00:03:55.800 --> 00:04:02.840
video of Rick Beato who posted a
video called why gen Z Doesn't Care about

48
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:10.120
Music? And Sinus Music, this
young man posted his own commentary on this

49
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:15.240
and he really made my day.
It was a millennial's response to why gen

50
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:17.319
Z doesn't care about music? And
I gotta tell you, I was watching

51
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:21.560
his video and I was when I
click play, I go, oh my

52
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:28.639
gosh, here he's gonna start nitpicking
at Rick Biato's commentary about why gen Z

53
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.279
doesn't care about music, and that
was totally the contrary and I really appreciated

54
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.959
it. So a big shout out
to you, Sinus Music. Go check

55
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:42.120
his channel out very important. You
guys are gonna get tons of good info

67
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:45.800

00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:00.079

question. What's this about you doing a

00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:04.480

00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:34.800
eighties and we're gonna be starting off
in nineteen eighty itself and talking about both

91
00:07:34.839 --> 00:07:40.480
the Billboard Top ten and our personal
picks for the top ten songs. So

92
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:44.839

98
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:07.360
Yes, this is the chanting the
legend in my own mind, riding along

99
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:13.360
with everybody's favorite Italian stallion. And
he's not sly Stone on the Billboard top

100
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:22.360
one hundred in nineteen eighty against my
list of favorites in that sane list.

101
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:30.840
Now, I believe you will like
Kenny G. You know I do like

102
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.799
Kenny G. But we're not going
to talk about Kenny G tonight. This

103
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.559
is the show where we talk about
the decade that you know, many of

104
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:41.200
us believed to be the greatest of
all. As a matter of fact,

105
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:43.759
it was a decade. It was
a decade of first timers, a decade

106
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:50.039
that both the good virgins. It
was a decade for first time for everything,

107
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.120
for both good and bad. It
was a decade that saw the formation

108
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:58.960
of musical stars becoming icons and then
future legends. It was a decade where

109
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:05.360
it was unrival music talent in writing, composition, creativity and variety. A

110
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:11.120
decade chain were radio jocks, the
DJs. They were entertainers. They weren't

111
00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:13.960
just your next door neighbor trying to
talk to you like you're sitting next to

112
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:18.799
them on the couch. They had
phenomenal improv skills. They made us feel

113
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:24.440
the music they played. Sings.
Doctor Don Rose and your Dupecade should and

114
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:28.360
bring you the newest and tastiest videos. Watch for at the videos starting this

115
00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:31.960
Saturday night at six Study on Channel
four. They will take you deep into

116
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:41.639
the world video Huey Lewis and the
News on Stereo six ten. The radio

117
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:46.919
job played the role in my life
and many like me and you as that

118
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:54.480
guiding friend of inspiration or that friend
to keep you going through the day,

119
00:10:54.120 --> 00:11:01.080
whether you be in of school,
age, at work, on the way

120
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:07.279
to work, a parent, a
worker, in a cubicle. FM radio

121
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:11.600
and the jock back then was like
your friend in your ears, in your

122
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:18.879
face, without you being in the
same place with you. The jock got

123
00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:24.559
you through a lot of the shit
in life, made work and other bad

124
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:28.159
things a little bit better. You
can laugh, You could be with a

125
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:33.480
group of people at work or score
or wherever people are gonna die right in

126
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:41.080
and be on the same same wavelength. I think the radio jocks as close

127
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:46.120
to the participation of the musicalists that
used to be made in the eighties and

128
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:54.320
prior are The definite sign that is
missing in radio is which we are kind

129
00:11:54.360 --> 00:12:03.840
of trained in a robotic way,
a noncaring way to indulge everything that we

130
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:09.399
can in a bias and for free, without giving any thought to anything that's

131
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:16.039
reel around us. And I think
we're losing terrestrial radio, free form radio,

132
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:24.200
especially the jock personality has kind of
programmed society to be a bunch of

133
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:31.200
Karen's whims sees and un in touch
with our fellow man, yeah, and

134
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:35.360
taking away the voice of the jock, who who who made his life of

135
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:39.919
presenting music and presenting new artists and
talent and performers, who made it his

136
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:43.080
job to make it exciting for your
day, who made it his job to

137
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.399
keep you uplifted and gifted and make
you smile throughout whatever the heck you were

138
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:56.399
going through in life. Looking at
New York City, whether from Fox five

139
00:12:56.440 --> 00:13:03.080
meteorologists Nick Gregory gradually clearing easy about
about about thirty five relies here tonight tomorrow

140
00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:07.399
mostly sunlit Chili High forty five really
now forty two in Central Park on the

141
00:13:07.480 --> 00:13:11.639
radio, It's Ladies and Gentlemen.
The decade of the eighties, a decade

142
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:16.919
of over the top movies, enacting, movies that inspired, movies that entertained

143
00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:22.919
first time movies in every genre that
came to revolutionize generations to come, even

144
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:28.399
as much as to have this current
decade in twenty twenty two, seeing the

145
00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:31.639
remake of dozens of films from that
time, and even popularize the eighties through

146
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:37.559
famous TV shows that are on Netflix
now. The years nineteen eighty, Ronald

147
00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:43.919
Reagan was elected President of the United
States. Oh my god, let me

148
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:46.679
just say, first of all,
this has been well, There's never been

149
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:52.080
a more humbling moment in my life. I would have been not only humbled

150
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:56.960
by the extent of what has happened
tonight, even if it had been the

151
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:03.360
cliffhanger that all of us I think
we're expecting it would have been the same

152
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:07.960
way. But to have had the
support of the people to this country.

153
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:13.679
I consider the trust that you have
placed in me sacred, and I give

154
00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:18.279
you my sacred oath that I will
do my utmost to justify your faith.

155
00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:24.879
Mount Saint Helen's erupts in Washington,
fifty thousand feet into the ionisphere. Winds

156
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:31.399
pushed the ash east into communities like
Yakama, turning Sunday noon into the dead

157
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:35.720
of night. Residents were issued gas
map and sent respiratory patients to hospitals.

158
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.159
Cars stalled on the streets when the
dense ash stopped up carburettors and air filters,

159
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:46.080
and police told everybody just to stay
in the homes. We have a

160
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:48.840
number of reports tonight. David Jackson
is right now at the base of Mount

161
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:54.759
Saint Helen's. David's What's Happening.
CNN begins broadcasting. This new service will

162
00:14:54.799 --> 00:14:58.639
be called the Cable News Network,
and the program continually updated half hour,

163
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:03.240
say, with some national news,
business news, sports, and features twenty

164
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:07.759
four hours a Dad, I know
that we will succeed, and I pledge

165
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:13.480
to you that we will not let
the American public Dawn pac Man the video

166
00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:22.120
game is released. John Lennon is
shot Dead's call three sockets remitting. John

167
00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:24.600
Smith is on the line, and
I don't care what's on the line,

168
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:28.559
Howard. We have got to say, but we know in the book,

169
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.039
yes, we have to say it. Remember, this is just a football

170
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:37.600
game. No out of who wins, aw loses. An unspeakable tragedy conferred

171
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:43.440
to us by ABC News in New
York City, John Lennon outside of his

172
00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:46.440
apartment building on the West side of
New York City, the most famous,

173
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.960
perhaps of all of the Beatles,
shot twice in the back, rushed the

174
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:58.759
Roosevelt Hospital dead on arrival. Hard
to go back to the game after that

175
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:07.440
news, the release of the Rubik's
Cube, the first appearance of post it

176
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:11.480
notes, and the number one movie
in the US in nineteen eighty, believe

177
00:16:11.480 --> 00:16:14.080
it or not, was The Empire
Strikes Back. It was released on May

178
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:17.519
second and was at the top of
the box office. In nineteen eighty.

179
00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:21.600
Star Wars was, without or doubt, Hollywood's biggest blockbuster movie, so Hollywood

180
00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:25.600
figured why stop at just one Star
Wars epic? The Empire Strikes Back will

181
00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:27.799
hit San Diego Theater is like a
laser blast. When the movie starts its

182
00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:33.960
run May twenty first, Pacific Cinerama
Theater is anticipating sellout crowds. Almost Comedian

183
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:38.679
Richard Pryor's Badly burned while trying to
freebase cocaine. Little did we know that

184
00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:44.799
the start of the eighties was about
to change the fabric of generations to come

185
00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:48.759
in many ways. Chain because today
we're going to be talking about music.

186
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:53.200
Music that since the introduction of Elvis
in the fifties, the Beatles in the

187
00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:59.480
sixties, the start of heavy rock
in the seventies with acts such as led

188
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:03.120
Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Deep,
Purple Queen, and the start of metal

189
00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:07.119
with Judas Priest and Black Sabbath and
others, the groundwork had already been laid

190
00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:12.799
for the rise of something that was
never experienced or ever heard. It was

191
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:17.720
a generation of new kids, having
no idea that they were about to witness

192
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:22.759
the start of a real life musical
fairy tale or a journey that will follow

193
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:26.720
them for the rest of their lives. Chang New rhythms, new beats,

194
00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:33.920
new lyrics, new genres were coming. It was an ocean of singer songwriters,

195
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:37.680
of musicians and performers that wanted to
touch the world with their creativity,

196
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:42.480
ingenuity, and spontaneity. Radio stations
were responsible for playing the rotation of music

197
00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:48.119
that would change everything for those that
grew up in that time. So now,

198
00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:51.160
ladies and gentlemen, get ready,
because we're going to kick it off

199
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:56.440
with a Billboard's Hot one hundred and
only mentioned their picks for the top ten

200
00:17:56.039 --> 00:18:03.559
of the year nineteen eighty. Number
ten The Rose by Bette Midler. Oh

201
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:07.759
please, you like that song?
Continue? Yes, that's what I thought.

202
00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:12.240
Number nine It's still rock and Roll
to Me by Billy Joel. Now,

203
00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:15.759
don't get me wrong, I like
Billy Joel and I love that song.

204
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:19.519
It just I don't think it belonged
in number nine. Song sucked Dog?

205
00:18:21.839 --> 00:18:25.400
Are you serious you don't like that
song? You don't appreciate your fine

206
00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:30.359
music? Then that's what I thought. Number eight Funky Town by lips Ink.

207
00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:36.160
Tell me you don't like that song? Doo doo doo. That's a

208
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:41.880
great song. That's a great song. While you also wore tenny loafers and

209
00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:48.799
the next sweaters tied around your neck. Oh brother, you now you're letting

210
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.119
the world know that you're a hater
of good music. To see the cure,

211
00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:56.039
all right? Number six, crazy
little Thing called Love by Queen.

212
00:18:56.240 --> 00:19:00.240
I'm not gonna say anything about that
because we both love Queen. Right,

213
00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:03.920
great song, a great song.
Great It was an ode to the late

214
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:08.039
great Elvis Presley. Yeah, okay, number five, do that to me

215
00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:11.960
one more time by Captain and Tanil. They do not belong in number five.

216
00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:15.599
Bro. Every time he had that
hat on, I thought of the

217
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:21.880
skipper in in Gilligan's Island and yes, and I just wanted to knock his

218
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:26.240
hat off of him. You know
what Tannil is like? What all Karen's

219
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:33.440
look like today? That's correct?
Number four Rock with You by Michael Jackson.

220
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:36.359
Once again, I'm not going to
argue that with you. I love

221
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:38.799
Michael Jackson. We liked the song
rock with You. Does it belong to

222
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:47.799
number four? Number three Magic by
Olivia Newton john Please? The only time

223
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:53.319
I liked that song is when I
would be highly inebriated at the Fabulous Forum

224
00:19:53.480 --> 00:20:00.000
during the Showtime Lakers decade when Magic
Johnson had a triple dub bow and they

225
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:03.359
would play that song. Oh,
he went to the same bar you did

226
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:07.519
having a triple double. No,
brother, I watched the world champion Lakers

227
00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:11.119
at the Forum season tickets? Baby, how could you watch if you were

228
00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:15.519
inebriated? You weren't even aware that
you were there? Very easy? Oh,

229
00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:19.480
I was aware. You were probably
at some bar watching the close circuit

230
00:20:19.519 --> 00:20:25.880
TV. You're watching, you were
watching on TV in nineteen eighty as they

231
00:20:25.960 --> 00:20:29.480
played the game. That's what you
were doing. Or Select TV. You

232
00:20:29.480 --> 00:20:33.440
know what that dare you because you
were playing with toys with he Man toys.

233
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:37.960
That's right, when we were all
watching the Great Lakers and the Dodgers

234
00:20:38.119 --> 00:20:45.480
on on TV and Select watching l
downing former picture of the Dodgers who looked

235
00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:49.039
half cooked out and drunk as he
tried to talk on the camera. It's

236
00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:56.119
a great time, you're telling me
three anyway? Number two another Brick in

237
00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:59.720
the Wall by Pink Floyd. I
think we can agree. It's a great

238
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:03.000
song and a great band, but
it doesn't belong to number two. No.

239
00:21:03.079 --> 00:21:07.160
It reminds me of Catholic School.
And the very last thing as I

240
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:12.920
want to hear is that song A
bunch of Penguins And in the first place

241
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:19.440
in number one according to the Billboard
Hot one hundred for songs in nineteen eighty.

242
00:21:19.799 --> 00:21:26.839
It's a song by a singer named
Debbie Harry and guitarist Chris Stein,

243
00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:34.920
otherwise known as Blondie, and the
song is call Me Let Me ask You

244
00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:38.319
really quick, what did you think
of that song. I actually liked that

245
00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:42.079
song. It's okay, it's okay. Yeah, it's not a They were

246
00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:45.000
kind of like, you know,
rock and roll coming out of punk rock.

247
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:48.960
Now you want to hear a quick
story about her, No, my

248
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:53.039
mom and dad used to be members
that you Better shed your journey talking at

249
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:57.000
the Playboy Club in Hollywood, California, when it was like a nightclub.

250
00:21:57.079 --> 00:22:03.799
You know, could get in there, and Deborah Harry worked there a couple

251
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:07.880
of times when my parents used to
go hang out over there and have dinner

252
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:11.960
and get drinks. And my dad
was doing what he was doing for a

253
00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:15.279
living, right and she was there, so you know what I'm doing.

254
00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:19.599
I thought she was pretty cool.
She was sexy. That was the Billboard's

255
00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:23.079
top one hundred, top ten for
the year nineteen eighty. We're gonna take

256
00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:27.240
of time out because when we come
back, it's our pick. It's our

257
00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:38.759
time for the best songs of nineteen
eighty. Ever, wish you could go

258
00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:45.039

clothes and those wacky hair dues, Well,

259
00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:49.880
let Tescano and Chang transport you back
in time, back to the eighties.

260
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:56.279
If they were a laxity they'd be
so powerful you could stand on your

261
00:22:56.319 --> 00:23:02.160
head and on the ceiling. The
next position, we're not only but also

262
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:11.839
and now back to the eighties with
Toscato and Chang. Welcome back. This

00:23:59.200 --> 00:24:03.640
One. Other ja goes to Billy
Joel with you might be right You are

274
00:24:03.720 --> 00:24:12.039
listening to Back to the Eighties Radio. Love was Billy Joel. You might

275
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:15.279
be right right here at Back to
the eighties. That's right, number five

276
00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:22.279
for the chang. That song speaks
immense so blessing to me to Scannell,

277
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:26.160
not bad. I'm glad you chose
that as number five for you because that's

278
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:29.759
actually a great song. I love
that song. I blast that in the

279
00:24:29.839 --> 00:24:32.799
car whenever I'm listening to it.
I love Billy Joel, and that song

280
00:24:32.880 --> 00:24:36.640
is just phenomenal. I love it. You know what, It floores me

281
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:40.680
that you appreciate that great tune,
It really does. You know what that

282
00:24:40.839 --> 00:24:45.599
song speaks tales of my livelihood.
You know, I went to Catholic school.

283
00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:49.680
I was brought up very strict.
I broke all the rules, you

284
00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:53.400
know what I mean. Catholic girls
I did have a lot of fun with

285
00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:59.759
even if they weren't present. But
you know what, man, Billy Joel

286
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:03.079
total riot. Yeah he was a
badass bro you know what I mean.

287
00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:06.480
I mean he was short, badass, left New York, married a hot

288
00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:11.000
chick Rota Hardy, partied, kicked
ass on the piano, made music.

289
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:15.720
The only thing I don't dig about
Billy Joel straight up. Yeah, he

290
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:21.160
jacked his band up for all that
money and all those music royalties. Other

291
00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:22.559
than that, the dude, kicked
ass. You know. One of the

292
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:26.880
things that I don't like about Billy
Joel. He does all these antics and

293
00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:30.759
theatrics and rants on stage where he
kicks his the instruments and the piano he

294
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:34.640
tips them over just because he gets
all pissed off that something didn't go his

295
00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:41.440
way. He's like the axle romance. Yes, Liver Rachi, Yeah you

296
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:44.319
know what I mean? Bro,
Yeah, spoiled Brad. Do you know

297
00:25:44.359 --> 00:25:48.240
who I am? Yeah? You're
a short dude that looks like Uncle Fester.

298
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:52.279
Now, your daughter's hot, You
married a hot chick. You kicked

299
00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:55.720
ass, You your band out of
money. We love all your music.

300
00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:59.759
We didn't start the fire well for
my number five, I gotta tell you

301
00:25:59.799 --> 00:26:03.640
man. And it was a song
written recorded by the probably one of the

302
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:10.279
most famous singers, if not the
most famous singer songwriter of all time performer

303
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:14.079
of all time. He's been referred
to as the King of pop. This

304
00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:18.680
single, Don't Stop Till You Get
Enough, was Michael Jackson's second single to

305
00:26:18.759 --> 00:26:23.599
hit number one on the Billboard Hunt
one hundred and it remained at number one

306
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:30.200
for six weeks. It was five
times platinum by the recording industry so on

307
00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:36.119
that note, mister changster, here's
Michael Jackson on the off the Wall album

308
00:26:36.359 --> 00:26:38.640
Don't Stop Till You Get Enough.
On the one and only Back to the

309
00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:59.400
Radio. That was Michael Jackson Don't
Stop Till You Get Enough on the back

310
00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:03.640
to the eighties radio. That's right, you're listening to top ten of the

311
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:08.839
best hits according to Changan myself of
nineteen eighty. I remember this single being

312
00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:12.720
on a forty five? Do you
remember that? And I'm not talking about

313
00:27:12.720 --> 00:27:17.640
a gun either. I'm talking about
the forty five, the vinyl single.

314
00:27:18.119 --> 00:27:21.640
Oh yeah, bro, Now I
remember the forty five being famous back in

315
00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:27.359
the day of LP and vinyl.
Michael Jackson with the Jackson five. That

316
00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:33.240
was an excellent pick. Michael Jackson
was definitely a cross that brought over soul

317
00:27:33.920 --> 00:27:40.759
into pop. But his moves,
the speed of his music, the vibration

318
00:27:40.839 --> 00:27:45.720
that he caused will always be popped. But anybody that can lyrically put their

319
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:52.000
voice together to create king sound of
an instrument and the vibration to dance is

320
00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:56.880
a freaking king. You can say
what you want, believe what you want

321
00:27:56.880 --> 00:28:00.519
about Michael Jackson. The only the
only way I look at that is like,

322
00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:07.079
how does everybody in life consider themself
worthy of judging? Dude? It's

323
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:11.160
a badass cat bro. By the
way, for those of you who who

324
00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:14.680
are interested in knowing a little bit
of trivia, the song was also Jackson's

325
00:28:14.720 --> 00:28:18.440
first Grammy Award and the American Music
Awards Don't stop to you get enough.

326
00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:23.839
It's considered to be the first song
to showcase Jackson's talent as both the singer

327
00:28:23.920 --> 00:28:29.119
and songwriter. Dude, if you
think about it, he collaborated with so

328
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:33.279
many great artists, and he came
from an era where it was live instruments.

329
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:37.319
Him and his brothers were actually jamming
it in the living room or the

330
00:28:37.359 --> 00:28:41.000
garage, you know what I mean. They were laying it down and creating

331
00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:45.880
the foundation and the vibration of the
music. And then he just like boom,

332
00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:49.000
blasted upon the scene with his own
talent. But yet, you know

333
00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:55.599
what, he was sucked up,
overcome and oppressed by the business and his

334
00:28:55.720 --> 00:29:02.160
psychotic dad, which is sad because
it takes away from his true genius as

335
00:29:02.160 --> 00:29:06.000
a king of his own realm and
music. What do you got for number

336
00:29:06.319 --> 00:29:11.680
four on your list of the top
five for nineteen eighty This would have to

337
00:29:11.720 --> 00:29:18.240
be ranked number fifty three in the
Top one hundred Billboard Charts of nineteen eighty.

338
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:21.799
Now I saw this band on a
couple occasions when they said they were

339
00:29:21.799 --> 00:29:26.720
going to retire, but they didn't. Man, if I could get as

340
00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:30.599
many blood transfusions and get loaded like
these cats, I would it has to

341
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:34.319
be ranked at number fifty three.
The Rolling Stones. I went to this

342
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:42.359
tour emotional rescue, oh man,
coming up at number fifty three in the

343
00:29:42.839 --> 00:29:49.839

eighty No other than the Great Dinosaur Relic

344
00:29:51.359 --> 00:30:00.240
The Rolling Stones with I Want to
Be All Night in Shining coming to your

345
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:11.000
emotional rescue. You are back with

347
00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:23.039
I'm scared. He's wearing a cap. I'm wearing a cumber button. Tascano,

348
00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:26.200
what are you gonna throw at me? Next? Coming up next is

349
00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:30.440
the seventh studio album by Australian rock
band ac DC, with one of the

350
00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:36.759
songs that will rattle your soul,
especially if you go back in black only,

351
00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:49.599
I'm Back to the eighties. Radio
that was back in Black by a

352
00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:56.720
c DC My Friend is the band's
first album to feature that's right, my

353
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:04.039
favorite and yours Brian Johnson, following
the death of Bond Scott. And although

354
00:31:04.200 --> 00:31:08.200
bon Scott was tremendous, he was
the original. But I gotta tell you,

355
00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:12.680
my friend, Brian Johnson does him
justice. I love Brian Johnson man.

356
00:31:14.359 --> 00:31:15.720
Yeah, you know what, all
I give a lot of props to

357
00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:21.640
Brian Johnson, but I only think
of Brian Johnson when I go, oh

358
00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:26.160
my gosh, she was somebody with
that members only leather jacky go of course,

359
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:32.519
and that kind of Butler type hat
with a pack of camels in the

360
00:31:32.599 --> 00:31:38.240
sleeve. Do you know that the
album was composed by Johnson, Angus and

361
00:31:38.359 --> 00:31:45.279
Malcolm Young and it was recorded over
seven weeks in the Bahamas. Of course,

362
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:48.559
you know they like to to live
it up a little bit on the

363
00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:53.839
rough side. And nineteen eighty comes
out with this phenomenal album, this great

364
00:31:55.480 --> 00:31:59.160
back in Black album. Well,
you know what, Matt props to them

365
00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:02.119
for coming back the way that they
did, in the fashion that they did.

00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:06.559
You shouldn't like that band. Next

eighties with Tiscano and Chang. We
are back you for joining us here because

380
00:33:00.200 --> 00:33:04.640
we are discussing the top five picks
of nineteen eighty. Both Chang and I

381
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.519
are going head to head. So
Chang, I believe it's your term with

382
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:13.200
number. Today's all right. You
know what, man, you came back

383
00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:16.519
strong. I did not think you
would hit me with an ac DC song.

384
00:33:17.079 --> 00:33:21.440
I thought you would be like with
the Boys from Jersey, you know

385
00:33:21.599 --> 00:33:27.279
that band like you Italian Bond Voyage
or right they called themselves right. But

386
00:33:27.440 --> 00:33:35.920
you know what my number three songs
that is Chrissy Hind of the Pretenders right

387
00:33:35.960 --> 00:33:40.480
here with brass in pocket, because
Lord knows, when you pack nads of

388
00:33:40.680 --> 00:33:45.720
steel, it's like you are listening
to the Pretenders right here at Back to

389
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:59.039
the eighties and cages not at two
five. My third pick was number forty

390
00:33:59.119 --> 00:34:05.720
one on the top one hundred Billboard
Top of the Charts in nineteen eighty and

391
00:34:05.799 --> 00:34:12.800
that was everybody's favorite tough girl,
Chris Si Hind and the Pretenders Chrissy Hind.

392
00:34:12.920 --> 00:34:15.800
Dude, that chick was sexy,
you know what I mean? I

393
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.559
didn't sexy at all. Uh.
The only good thing if I would have

394
00:34:19.679 --> 00:34:22.280
hit on her, she would have
drove me drunk under the influence on her

395
00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:27.360
hearty somewhere else beat me for my
change. Yeah, I don't, I

396
00:34:27.360 --> 00:34:29.719
don't know. I didn't. I
didn't find Well, she's not my type.

397
00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:31.920
Let's just go there. But I
can't tell you that. On the

398
00:34:32.000 --> 00:34:37.079
road to number three for me,
my friend and I hope you're not gonna

399
00:34:37.079 --> 00:34:39.360
hate me for this one. But
it's a song that was released in September

400
00:34:39.360 --> 00:34:43.840
of nineteen eighty and it was the
lead single from the third album of this

401
00:34:43.920 --> 00:34:49.599
band, the third album being sang
YadA Mondata. That's right the police,

402
00:34:50.119 --> 00:34:53.920
so don't stand so close to Me. This is back to the eighties radio

403
00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:07.199
that was don't Stand so Close to
Me by the Police from the album Zenyatta

404
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:09.440
Mandara and of course, by the
way, if you want to know,

405
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:15.159
this song deals with mixed feelings about
lust, fear, and guilt that a

406
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:21.760
school teacher has for a student and
the fallout when the inappropriate relationship is discovered

407
00:35:21.760 --> 00:35:25.960
by the adults. How do you
like that? Going on to number two,

408
00:35:27.119 --> 00:35:30.760
Chang, you better make this a
good one. Are you ready to

409
00:35:30.800 --> 00:35:36.320
go? Now? My number two
is going to shock all of you because

410
00:35:37.039 --> 00:35:47.840
it is from the sexy, great
redheaded curly Oh no, missus Bett Middler,

411
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:58.159
who came out in the movie The
Rose and delivered every time she cracked

412
00:35:58.159 --> 00:36:07.320
the mic to sing was musical bliss, especially with this song ranked at number

413
00:36:07.519 --> 00:36:16.760
ten The Rose by the ever so
sexy, domineering badass Bold bet Middler.

414
00:36:17.480 --> 00:36:23.599
You are losing your soul to rock
and roll right here at you know,

415
00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:36.280
back to the eighties with Doiscanno and
the Chain Welcome back to back to the

416
00:36:36.280 --> 00:36:42.280
eighties. Was the ever so beluptuous
great teller in acting, singing, and

417
00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:47.320
being a liberal activist, the very
best bet Middler with the Rose from the

418
00:36:47.400 --> 00:36:55.840
great movie that portrayed the ever so
brilliant, gracious Jamie Joplin The Rose.

419
00:36:57.639 --> 00:37:02.719
Yeah, where did you come up
with that choice? Come on, give

420
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:07.719
me a break? Look out of
all the beautiful songs in the nineteen eighty

421
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:13.840
Bette Midler, Yes, and now
now are you gonna go with Robert Smith

422
00:37:14.039 --> 00:37:15.440
to try to tap me? Can
give me a break? Let me go

423
00:37:15.480 --> 00:37:21.480
with my number two because this song
is performed on every tour of this band

424
00:37:21.599 --> 00:37:27.440
since they started. This song goes
way back and it's on a seven inch

425
00:37:27.800 --> 00:37:37.360
vinyl directly from Ireland. You Two
with I Will Follow. That was You

426
00:37:37.480 --> 00:37:40.280
Two with I Will Follow, written
three weeks before You Two began recording their

427
00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:45.000
album Boy. During the early rehearsals
of the song, the group frequently had

428
00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:51.760
a bunch of arguments as Bono was
struggling to explain his aggression for the guitar

429
00:37:51.840 --> 00:37:54.519
riff that was in it. And
by the way, Bono wrote this song

430
00:37:54.639 --> 00:38:01.119
because he was in sadness and tears
after losing his mother at fourteen years old.

431
00:38:01.800 --> 00:38:07.440
This is a great song by one
of it's my favorite band of all

432
00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:10.519
time, but it's one of the
greatest bands of all time. All I

433
00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:16.159
can say is, you are ripping
my taint apart with list after list.

434
00:38:16.880 --> 00:38:22.039
I was going for nostalgia. I
was trying to mix it up, finally

435
00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:25.360
show that I am not the dick
hater that you promote me to be every

436
00:38:25.360 --> 00:38:30.719
show. Hey, hey, and
you you have come and desecrated by hitting

437
00:38:30.840 --> 00:38:38.800
me with such great rock songs of
relevance and true emotion. I chose my

438
00:38:38.880 --> 00:38:44.119
favorite. I looked at all the
songs of nineteen eighty and I created It

439
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:46.480
was hard. Don't get me wrong. I would have loved to have included

440
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:51.480
Van Halen with cratabile rock. I
would have loved it, But I didn't.

441
00:38:51.920 --> 00:38:54.400
Just wait till you hear my number
one, which I know. Look,

442
00:38:54.800 --> 00:39:00.280
everything I've mentioned so far is only
a build up of wonder and beauty

443
00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:06.239
for you, only to let you
down with my number one. I guarantee

444
00:39:06.239 --> 00:39:14.320
it. So let's hear your number
one for the best song of nine My

445
00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:22.000
number one go to on this Billboard
chart is a sexy waitress, blonde hair,

446
00:39:22.519 --> 00:39:28.960
somewhat belupious, Deborah Harry with a
punk rock band that hated each other

447
00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:32.280
through all the years, even when
they got accepted to the Rock and Roll

448
00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:40.199
Hall of Fame, did their arrogance
and hate not die he ever saw wonderful

449
00:39:40.920 --> 00:39:50.719
blonde with call Me Welcome back back
to the eighties. I had laid upon

450
00:39:51.440 --> 00:39:54.400
to scannell a dirty little secret.
He's in the back right now taking confession

451
00:39:55.400 --> 00:40:01.920
because I called out my dirty little
blondie. That's right, Deborah Harry with

452
00:40:02.079 --> 00:40:09.840
Blondie, just call me the number
one ranked song of all one hundred Billboard.

453
00:40:10.599 --> 00:40:15.400
You let Billboard dictate your favorite.
Come on, yeah, I picked

454
00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:17.840
it. He didn't pick it.
You picked it because Billboard picked it to

455
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:23.199
you. You were influenced by the
great Billboard. All right, are you

456
00:40:23.239 --> 00:40:27.760
ready for my number one? Because
I told you it was all a build

457
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:30.960
up of fantasy, so you thought
that all of mine were great, But

458
00:40:31.000 --> 00:40:35.679
I with this number one. When
you hear my number one, but for

459
00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:43.159
me, this was my personal pick
for number one song of nineteen eighty because

460
00:40:43.280 --> 00:40:47.079
it was a single to break the
top fifty on the US Billboard Hot one

461
00:40:47.159 --> 00:40:52.440
hundred, reaching the number one spot
in March of eighty one. It took

462
00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:58.639
him a whole year to reach number
one, but they were certified platinum with

463
00:40:58.800 --> 00:41:04.800
over one million copies sales. In
nineteen eighty one, they sold one million

464
00:41:05.119 --> 00:41:14.000
albums none other. This song is
the soft rock power ballad written by Kevin

465
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:20.679
Cronin. That's right, this is
Ario Speedwagon and I'm gonna chief on loving

466
00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:24.840
You baby. On back to the
eighties radio that was keep On Loving You

467
00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:29.920
by Ario Speedwagon and I told you
I had built up my list of fantasy

468
00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:32.440
for you. The music video of
this song was the seventeenth played on the

469
00:41:32.440 --> 00:41:37.559
first day broadcast of MTV, by
the way, in August first it was

470
00:41:38.559 --> 00:41:44.280
it is a song that you can
hear it today. They will play this

471
00:41:44.360 --> 00:41:49.719
song on movies, they will play
this song on in restaurants, on buses,

472
00:41:50.360 --> 00:41:55.239
this song and it is a great
song of nineteen eighty and should have

473
00:41:55.360 --> 00:42:00.159
been number one on Billboard. Okay, yes, and it does suck.

474
00:42:00.719 --> 00:42:05.679
Okay, I will tell you this. You couldn't stop. Oh my god,

475
00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:09.800
I believe that in the nineteen eighties, you used to like to wear

476
00:42:09.880 --> 00:42:15.679
a head band like the lead singer
from love Boy. No, because anybody

477
00:42:15.719 --> 00:42:23.559
that appreciates that band likes Loverboy Hunt. Yes. Well, coincidentally, I

478
00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:30.639
do like Loverboy the band. But
but but I can't tell you. By

479
00:42:30.679 --> 00:42:37.119
the way, I didn't mention that
this is from Ario Speedwagon's album High Infidelity.

480
00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:39.960
Let's do this because I know the
crowd is cheering for more, and

481
00:42:40.039 --> 00:42:45.159
I know that we have more.
Let's do a bonus round. Okay,

482
00:42:45.199 --> 00:42:49.000
this is not a list treat.
This is a number six on our list,

483
00:42:49.119 --> 00:42:52.159
not number one. We gave our
number one, and give us your

484
00:42:52.199 --> 00:42:59.239
bonus round. Song that would have
to be from the greatest band of Blas

485
00:42:59.360 --> 00:43:09.599
Snell California. Then Halo the Cradle. You are back righting and tighty with

486
00:43:09.760 --> 00:43:15.599
Tiscano and Chang right, you're at
back to the eighties tonight. We have

487
00:43:15.719 --> 00:43:19.840
gone heads up. I mean heads
up if we were sitting in the same

488
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:24.440
studio. But you don't know where
we're at, so we won't disclaim it.

489
00:43:25.119 --> 00:43:30.039
We'd be beating the hell out of
each other because I cannot believe Tiscano

490
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:36.039
pulled out some rock and wall that
I the chang passed up just to go

491
00:43:36.639 --> 00:43:42.199
with nostalgic, woosy feelings of my
child. Well, that's fine because that

492
00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:45.920
was your choice. Yes, right, that's what made you feel good in

493
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:52.159
your childhood or not even childhood.
I exposed too much. No, I

494
00:43:52.199 --> 00:43:55.639
think you did good. You hit
You hit the nerve right where it needed

495
00:43:55.679 --> 00:44:02.480
to be hit. So let's go
with my with my bonus song for nineteen

496
00:44:02.519 --> 00:44:06.440
eighty Are you ready for this one? This one is probably going to crush

497
00:44:06.480 --> 00:44:12.599
your soul because it was the debut
solo single by an English musician and it

498
00:44:12.679 --> 00:44:17.079
was actually released at the end of
nineteen seventy nine from his studio album The

499
00:44:17.159 --> 00:44:21.920
Pleasure Principle, and it reached top
of the chart in several countries. You

500
00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:27.320
are listening to Back to the Eighties
radio and this is Gary Newman with Cars.

501
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:37.280
Back to the eighties. This was
Cars by the English rocker musician slash

502
00:44:37.480 --> 00:44:44.880
synth pop, new wave Gary Newman. Come on, that was an incredible

503
00:44:44.960 --> 00:44:46.400
hit. You know what? This
is one of those songs that I blast

504
00:44:46.440 --> 00:44:50.559
in the car today. What am
I saying? I blast all eighties music

505
00:44:50.559 --> 00:44:53.000
in the cars on our mind?
Yeah, this is one song that I

506
00:44:53.079 --> 00:44:57.559
want to pull people over that are
blasting this song and hit him. You

507
00:44:57.639 --> 00:45:00.480
know what, I don't know growing
up in Los Angeles, I'm sure that

508
00:45:00.599 --> 00:45:07.039
you could maybe remember this after that
one hit wonder of Gary Newman on mt

509
00:45:07.559 --> 00:45:10.079
hearing my car, I was like, good god, man, that's a

510
00:45:10.079 --> 00:45:15.000
great song. There was a billboard
on the RTD known as the Metro now

511
00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:22.519
yeah, and it used to fly
Mexican car Insurance and the guy that was

512
00:45:22.639 --> 00:45:28.559
the face of those billboards on buses, yeah, resemble Gary Newman Newman.

513
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:30.559
Yeah, you love that. I
always used to think, oh yeah,

514
00:45:30.599 --> 00:45:37.239
I would always sing that verse of
that song in Spanish and wonder is Gary

515
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:44.079
Newman captive in Tijuana? I don't
know, but he could be in the

516
00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:47.880
trunk of hair in my car where
they locked me all up. The mactic

517
00:45:49.000 --> 00:45:53.880
can dated me because I was a
fraud in cars. Yeah, okay,

518
00:45:54.079 --> 00:45:58.079
continue, I loved it. If

Facebook page and send us a direct message.

524
00:46:17.039 --> 00:46:22.159
I mean the Eighties for everybody listening, was a lot more than a

525
00:46:22.199 --> 00:46:28.000
decade. And no, it wasn't
like many like to think by saying it

526
00:46:28.039 --> 00:46:31.599
was like any other time. No
matter how much you may hate the Eighties

527
00:46:31.599 --> 00:46:37.400
if you do, it was and
is a footprint that is here to stay.

528
00:46:37.480 --> 00:46:43.639
The people who lived through it are
speaking up and its influence is invading

529
00:46:43.679 --> 00:46:46.880
our current time unlike any other.
And the proof is in what you hear

530
00:46:47.440 --> 00:46:52.760
from people themselves, the music that
never left and is being discovered by an

531
00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:58.719
entire generation of young people that are
causing more than a resurgence, a craze

532
00:46:58.760 --> 00:47:02.639
or a new fad in twenty two. It's the soul of a generation past

533
00:47:04.440 --> 00:47:07.840
that is still alive and breathing,
living through all of us, and like

534
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:13.360
it or not, setting the standard
of what we could enjoy if we only

535
00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:20.119
set our sights less on technology and
more on the ingenuity creativity of people.

536
00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:23.639
And this is why Back to the
Eighties Radio is here. So in the

537
00:47:23.679 --> 00:47:29.159
meantime, I want to encourage you
guys to always do the right thing.

538
00:47:29.239 --> 00:47:34.480
Keep listening to us, keep sharing
the eighties memories with a whole new generation.

539
00:47:35.280 --> 00:47:37.800
So on behalf of myself, Tuscano. I want to wish you a

540
00:47:37.840 --> 00:47:43.719
great week ahead. Keep on fighting
the good fight until next Friday. I

541
00:47:43.800 --> 00:47:50.119
want to keep on loving you before
we release you to another changtastic weekend.

542
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:55.559
I want to tell you all everybody
out here matters. We are all lifted,

543
00:47:55.840 --> 00:48:00.000
we are all gifted. We are
a voting race, the human race.

544
00:48:00.719 --> 00:48:06.559
Go out there and stand for something
bigger than yourselves. So till next

545
00:48:06.559 --> 00:48:09.960
week, put a smile on your
face. So I bid you an austaavista,

546
00:48:10.400 --> 00:48:21.559

and to all my homies in every
