Do you want to hang in bang

9
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:17.079
And I am sitting here gingerly and
excited just to be in the presence of
10
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:23.040
my number one Copolot, my co
driver, my car dependent, the Italian
11
00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:37.640
Stallion. Oh babies, mister Mario
bro, what is up? Well?
12
00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:40.959
We're here another Friday. Man.
It's so good to see you as always.
13
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:44.239
You know, you got John Lennon
in the background, you got Jimmy
14
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:51.239
Hendrix, and you've got a stuffed
toy of Luigi, which I am a
15
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:57.120
little offended of course, because you
should have had. Mario. Well,
16
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.519
a quick story on that. Now. Luigi came to me from a lady
17
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:07.519
in Pittsburgh. That's right. I
attended a Dodger game against the Pittsburgh Pirates
18
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:15.479
and this, uh, this stopped
human was thrown at me because I had
19
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:22.360
to say a couple of uncaring words
about the Pittsburgh pir Yes, I saved
20
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:27.960
it. And now the reason she
took it because it's a backpack. You
21
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.960
can put small things in the back
of it. I'm not going to tell
22
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:36.520
you what the chang you please don't
know, but I will tell you.
23
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:40.879
If I leave it in public,
I won't claim it, all right.

39
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:52.280
week we are finalizing all right,
we're finishing up our four part series on
40
00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:54.879
music in the eighties. That doesn't
mean we're not gonna be talking about music
41
00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:59.400
of the eighties anymore, but at
least for this four part series, we're
42
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:02.080
going to be all done. And
today, Chang, now I know,
43
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:05.520
I know, today is gonna be
a little bit hard for you to to
44
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:12.560
swallow. Why because you are the
man of the metal cloth, you are
45
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:17.040
the man of the hard rock guitar. Yes, and today we're gonna be
46
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:24.079
talking about new wave an alternative.
Now remember here, your present jock of
47
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:29.439
the rock did surprise you and all
the cats and kiddies his last two shows
48
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:33.639
ago. With my knowledge of the
pop music in the eighties, Did I
49
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:40.399
not? Did I not bend the
strong? I did? You did?
50
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:44.480
So speaking about new wave? To
take this out, so I went on
51
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:47.639
Wikipedia. And you know, everything
in Wikipedia is true. I know everything
52
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:50.759
that you find on the Internet is
true. Yeah, So I looked up.
53
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:55.959
I looked up the term new wave, because we've called it new waves
54
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.079
since we were you know, young. Yes, And I didn't know it
55
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:06.160
originated, you know, from something
totally unrelated from French new wave, the
56
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:12.839
French new wave cinema movement. I
guess it was used as a catch all
57
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:16.560
for the music that emerged after punk
rock. It included punk itself, of
58
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:24.759
course, but retrospectively as as an
accessible counterpart of post punk. How's that
59
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:29.439
for a little bit of trivia knowledge
for you. I thoroughly enjoyed that bit
60
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:31.800
of trivia knowledge. I'm sure all
the cats and kiddies out there in the
61
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:36.079
eighties land they probably are kickled pink
with it too, my friend, and
62
00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:41.959
nobody cares. What they do care
about is the actual music itself. And
63
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:46.480
yes, so let me know,
all right, I've got a question for
64
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:50.000
you. So, growing up in
the eighties and hearing you know, there
65
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:56.120
was so many different genres of music. Talking about new wave, was there
66
00:05:56.240 --> 00:06:02.160
anytime that the chang in secret,
maybe in his closet somewhere. Maybe you
67
00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:08.639
were a closet new waiver. Did
you ever put on some new wave just
68
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:13.399
for yourself? Maybe you had the
walkman on and you had the headphones,
69
00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:18.399
and well, nobody was listening,
but you you secretly went to hear the
70
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:24.040
Cure or somebody like that. Well, I'm going to I'm going to dive
71
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:30.800
into some type of a secret that
I don't share with not too many except
72
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:35.839
the homies and the whole matchs of
My Beautiful moonbe Okudi Vould. Yeah.
73
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:42.160
Back in the eighties, one of
my favorite bands in the new wave scene
74
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:49.279
has to be no other than Devo
and Now I did like yes and I
75
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:54.759
also was a big fan of Men
at Work my brother now now well,
76
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.360
yeah, I love love, love, love love the music of Men at
77
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:02.560
Work. With Divo. You know, everybody knows their Whippe song, right,
78
00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:08.199
but they had another another song?
Well, they had many songs,
79
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:12.360
right. Is there a different song
that you liked from Devo that wasn't Whippo?
80
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.240
Yeah, dude, I mean geez, let me see. Yeah,
81
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:20.079
we are Divo we Are Divo?
Was that? Now? That wasn't one
82
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:24.240
that we've heard a lot on the
radio? Was it? You heard it
83
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:28.920
periodically, but it kind of got
downplayed with you know, there are other
84
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:32.360
great songs, but I mean it
was like we are divod Eve. Oh
85
00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:45.959
you know I also liked I liked
whipp It you're talking about this one?
86
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:48.759
It had a really good beat.
Man Yeah, now you want to hold
87
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:53.319
you want to know something real quick. The mother's brob brothers that were in
88
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:58.240
this band are the h I don't
know if they're the creators or the musical
89
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:05.600
directors of many cartoons that got made
into the nineties by the Rugrats. Is
90
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:13.519
the most famous that they are known
for, and that's Devo. Are we
91
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:20.879
not men? As the question?
The answer is we are Devo? Not
92
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.639
bad? Not bad? And you
know what, I didn't know that about
93
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:26.160
the Rugrats. I was a fan
of the Talking Heads also, that was
94
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:31.800
another bad David Byrne was a guy
that I really used to like to listen
95
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:35.600
to. I also liked roxy music. So you know, the chang has
96
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:41.840
swam in the waters of the new
wave music scene just as well as I
97
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:46.679
dove into the oceans and conquered the
sharks of the whales in the metal genre.
98
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:52.639
My brother, let's do this.
Let's go ahead and take a small
99

110
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.320
is from the great band back in
the eighties, the Wall of Voodoo.
111
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:05.600
And if you were wondering where me
and Tuscotto went, we were on the
112
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:26.320
radio in Mexico. That's right,
A Mexican radio broad can't understand, dude
113
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:31.000
that that song. You gotta admit
it's a catchy song, brother, it's
114
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.799
a very canty song. What an
interesting name, man, Wall of Voodoo.
115
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.279
Do you remember when it was the
first time you heard of him?
116
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:41.559
Yeah, that was on MTV when
this video came up, and that was
117
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:46.360
a trippy video. Yeah, you
know what I consider the Wall of Voodoo
118
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:54.200
now Trump's imagine every wall boot said
that I do it was gonna come up
119
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.639
sooner later. So this is the
one and only back to the eighties with

00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:15.600
knowledge and the Chang's knowledge of some
songs, not all of them. So
123
00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:18.080
you know what, if we do
skip your song, we don't have your

00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:22.600

at Facebook. But for now, I'm

00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:31.679
going to give you a little test, Chang and see how is your knowledge
127
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:37.559

00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:39.840
was Reflex And I said, no, that's too easy. Chain will get
151
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:46.200
it. Rotten man. You that
is a soundtrack from James Bond. That's
152
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:50.919
correct. The movie was of You
to a Kill, all right, So
153
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:56.039
Duran Duran, of You to a
Kill. A lot of people say,
154
00:13:56.039 --> 00:13:58.120
and I don't know if you agree
with this, A lot a lot of
155
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:03.600
people say that Duran Duran is the
originator or the guys who kicked it all
156
00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:07.919
off, the new wave movement.
You know what I would I would probably
157
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.200
say it's between Duran Duran, Tears
for Fears, and even possibly Culture Club.
158
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:22.480
Ah. You can always throw into
the mix there, Blondie. You
159
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:26.519
think Blondie, Uh, well yeah
you have to if you're talking about Blondie.
160
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:30.960
Blondie I believe started in the late
seventies, but she really got really
161
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:35.000
her wheels under in the eighties.
Some say that Blondie had one of the
162
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:41.759
first rap type uh songs and uh, you know, kind of Blondie and
163
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:46.720
the Pretenders kind of took rock and
roll into another era. I think that's
164
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:50.559
kind of like new wave. That's
why I say you can go with I
165
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:54.440
mean, look at that track we
just heard from Dvo. Very punk rock
166
00:14:54.639 --> 00:15:01.159
is sound, but it wasn't as
raw and ruthless as punk rock was back
167
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:03.559
then, you know what I mean. They were in a band that was
168
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:09.279
singing about anarchy and down with the
queen or down with the President. They
169
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:13.360
weren't as political. But then you
do have bands like The Clash that popped
170
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:18.799
up into the eighties that are kind
of on the balance of new wave punk
171
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:26.000
rebellion type music. So there's so
many different bands that you can probably say
172
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:31.919
started the new wave craze here in
the States, but then you can also
173
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:37.559
say that it started off and then
these are just bands that kind of fell
174
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:43.039
into place right right now. Well, definitely Duran. With Duran Duran,
175
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:46.440
we're definitely getting into one of those
bands that are some of the most famous
176
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.919
and that still if it wasn't for
this whole COVID nineteen fiasgo, they'd still
177
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.879
be filling up stadiums at least in
Europe. I don't know here in the
178
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.960
United States because one of the biggest
things that has happened here in the States
179
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:04.960
is we have cut off any sort
of, you know, introduction to what
180
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:10.960
was really popular in the eighties to
the newer generation. And that's one of
181
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:14.000
the main reasons we're doing the show, is because we're bringing back the eighties
182
00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:18.279
to that whole new generation, wanting
to make them understand us a little bit
183
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:23.240
better and understand the music, our
culture that we grew up with. So
184
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:29.440
you got fifty points with Duran Duran. Yes, this next band, This
185
00:16:29.559 --> 00:16:34.919
next band they still play today.
They've been honored recently in twenty nineteen.
186
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:53.320
This is the band all this is, I believe the pet shovels sixty points
187
00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.759
for you. What is the name
of the song. I'll give you a
188
00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:03.480
few more seconds to listen to say
kicking a chance and nuking downtables and restaurants
189
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:08.799
in a west End town. Western
boys blows. You know what, Downtown
190
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:22.799
boys, Downtown boys, East End
girls and girls, you know west End
191
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:25.680
girls. You got another fifty points. I was gonna give you it.
192
00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:27.359
But you know what, it wouldn't
be fair. It wouldn't be fair.
193
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:30.960
So we want to be here.
You should only give you should only give
194
00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:40.720
me twenty five points because I said
west End Boys were Well, how about
195
00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:45.359
this, I'm gonna give you fifty
points because you got the pen Shop Boys,
196
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.319
okay, and then I'll give you
a pat on the back for getting
197
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:56.640
you know, east End Girls when
it was west End Girls. All right,
198
00:17:56.799 --> 00:18:00.599
I'll take the fifty points and I
will take the Jessica Chang kick to
199
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:04.759
the keys and it's not even any
right. You get the pan on the
200
00:18:04.799 --> 00:18:10.880
back. Nice now, I hope, I hope we're going to talk about
201
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:15.359
another great band to be fifty twos. It's another great band. We will
202
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.880
get there. Regarding the pet Shop
Boys, west End Girls was the Chang
203
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:23.400
a big proponent on listening to the
pet Shop Boys back in the eighties.
204
00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:26.400
No, no, I don't want
to step on anybody's toes. But back
205
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:32.440
in the eighties I thought they were
a bit too feminine for my liking.
206
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:34.960
Well, but they're always worrying.
Those trench coats. They you know,
207
00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:38.720
they were a suit. They look
good. What do you mean a little
208
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:42.880
feminine? Well, they were sissioush
I'm not saying they were gay or anything.
209
00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:47.960
They were just a little bit sissious. They were like too too delicate.
210
00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:51.519
It was delicate music. It was
like, Okay, you want to
211
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:53.519
put that stuff on when you're going
on without with a girl that you're not
212
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.759
sure if she likes the same kind
of music as you. You know,
213
00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:00.200
maybe you want to mix it up
because maybe she's in the dance crazy,
214
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.880
so you kind of want to mix
it up with music like that. But
215
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:07.319
then they getting back in the eighties, everybody had big hair, so you
216
00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:11.839
had to constantly put different vibes out
there to see what fish was gonna bite
217
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:15.319
me. Personally, I'm not a
big pet Shop Boy fan. What can
218
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.519
I say. I didn't even like
going to pet shops back then. I
219
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:21.000
just went to Siaka and got a
dog. How's that? Well? You
220
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:23.440
know, the Pet Shop Boys had
a couple of really really big hits,
221
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:26.799
and this was probably one of their
biggest West End girls. But they also
222
00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:30.519
had a song always on my mind. To believe it or not, you
223
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:33.079
remember that. I think if you
sing it to me, I'll remember it.
224
00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:37.200
Well. I don't know if I'm
gonna sing it to you. But
225
00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:41.119
always on my mind was watch.
So I'm gonna play it for you right
226
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:47.960
now. Can you tell me who
comes to mind when they start singing?
227
00:19:48.200 --> 00:19:51.759
Always on my mind? Okay,
all right, it's gonna have that.
228
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:55.599
It's gonna have that familiar tune to
it. So I want you to tell
229
00:19:55.599 --> 00:20:00.200
me you you make that decision.
So here we go. Hopefully it's it's
230
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:06.599
up soon. It does. Yeah, it kind of does remind me a
231
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:15.799
little bit of Willie Nelson, you
know. And yes they had the eighties
232
00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:19.119
synthesizers, of course, but here
we go. That is like, yeah,
233
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:22.279
that's exactly the same songs by Willie. Nothing. Now, I do
234
00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:26.240
got to give it to these guys
because they did put a pretty a trippy
235
00:20:26.319 --> 00:20:30.680
twist on it, you know what
I mean. But you would have never
236
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:37.799
they would have never. Never would
I have gone on that point. I
237
00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:45.279
wanted Cowbell No, So that,
my friend is we need more the Pitch
238
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:48.039
Up Boys. And they had a
bunch of other ones too, and they
239
00:20:48.039 --> 00:20:52.559
were recently, I believe in twenty
nineteen they were. They got some award.
240
00:20:53.000 --> 00:20:56.880
So, yes, you got fifty
points for Duran. Duran, you
241
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:02.759
got fifty points, all right,
So you're basically at fifty percent. You're
242
00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:07.279
bating fifty all right, very cool. I love it, you know.
243
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:10.119
I like to swing both ways,
my brother, when I'm at the play.
244
00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:21.039
Here is song number three for you. Oh, this is no other
245
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:26.319
than our House Madness. Yes,
a full one hundred points for you,
246
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:33.799
one hundred points for the chang now
no madness. Madness is a song that
247
00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:38.759
I started listening obviously, very very
early here the eighties. Yes, and
248
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:48.559
it's it's got such a such a
I mean everything about the song just breathes
249
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:53.279
nostalgia to me. And and uh, it just brings back so many,
250
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:57.920
so many good memories this band.
If you remember the video, I always
251
00:21:59.039 --> 00:22:03.759
thought the lead singer looked like a
young Drew Kerry without blasting that could be
252
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:10.759
and a young skinny one too,
you could say, another great bat back
253
00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:15.359
in the April in Excess. In
Excess was a tremendous band. I think
254
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:19.640
one of the greatest bands that came
out of the eighties. And rest his
255
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:26.559
soul man, Michael Hutchins. Guy
was like to me, Michael Hutchins kind
256
00:22:26.559 --> 00:22:30.559
of represented like a Jim Morrison in
new way. You know. He actually
257
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:33.759
kind of kind of reminded me of
Jim Morrison too. He had that hair
258
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:38.119
going on. Yes, he had
that semi serious vibe going on, that
259
00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:42.160
poetic kind of look going on,
looked like he Yeah, he had that
260
00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:47.200
aura. Yeah, it looked like
he needed to smoke a pipe and and
261
00:22:47.400 --> 00:22:52.119
uh go to Starbucks with his rolled
up jeans tucked into his boots or something.
262
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:59.440
Yeah, with his V neck t
shirts. Yes, writing a cafe
263
00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:03.640
racer more cycle. Yeah, but
you gotta so. You got one hundred
264
00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:07.160
points, man, you got you
got one hundred points there because you got
265
00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:14.319
madness and you got our house probably
beyond a doubt. One one of my
266
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:19.000
all time favorite eighties songs, Oh
without a doubt, all right, and
267
00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:26.359
the game continues. The game continues. Here we go. Here is number
268
00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:30.400
four for you. By the way, I do want a little caveat here.
269
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:37.480
This next song is from one of
those bands that maybe had well,
270
00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:41.599
it was one of those one hit
wonders. Maybe had one more good song,
271
00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:45.519
Sami. I'm not gonna call it
a good song, but one Sami
272
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:48.200
good song. After this, and
then from then on when they go to
273
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:53.319
eighties reunions and parties, they can
only sing this song. This might be
274
00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:59.880
difficult because I'd be a little difficult. It's there. It's a one hundred
275
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:03.880
under, but it's here's the difference. Though this song has been played so
276
00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:08.279
much for since since it came out, it is bigger today than it was
277
00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:12.039
then. It is huge. Okay, it is huge and you're gonna know
278
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:17.960
it right away. Um, but
this goes for a hundred points right here
279
00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:37.119
we go? Yeah we do.
Now, when this song came out such
280
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:42.720
a just catchy tune, you would
think, man, this this this band
281
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:47.319
is gonna go just off the charts. They're good, Yes, they're gonna
282
00:24:47.359 --> 00:24:52.480
fly. When I saw this guy
the song, I mean they he's got
283
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:56.720
a strong voice. They have a
pretty good backbeat behind him. Yeah.
284
00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:59.759
Well he looked like he came out
of the renaissance Sarah, and that's you
285
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:03.039
know, his video has to do
with a renaissance and stuff like that.
286
00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:07.200
The little midget dressed as a joker. Yeah that kind of didn't that freak
287
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:10.839
you out? I mean I didn't
want to watch the video after twelve o'clock.
288
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:12.559
If I was a knee brave,
I thought the little dude would come
289
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:15.200
to a window roan hack me away. Yeah, yeah, he had that
290
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:19.960
kind of look. But now this
band is Men Without Hats, brother right
291
00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:25.160
now, And here's the tricky part. The name of the song can mislead
292
00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:29.960
you because a lot of people just
say what the chorus says, right,
293
00:25:30.640 --> 00:25:33.960
and they don't remember the name of
the song. So for fifty points more
294
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:37.039
to give you an even one hundred, what is the name of this song
295
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:42.319
you can dance? See? This
song always gets people because they think it's
296
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:48.599
called you can dance if you want
to, right this, But it's not.
297
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:55.640
No, I I can't think of
the dang name. Wait a minute,
298
00:25:55.720 --> 00:26:00.880
all right, So it's the Safety
Dance, the safe You looked that
299
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:03.720
up. You had enough time to
look it up, all right, I'm
300
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:07.759
gonna give that to you for a
full one hundred points. But this was
301
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:11.759
Men Without Hats and that was safety
Dance. Now. I was looking it
302
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:15.960
up, but I could not find
it. And then as I was singing
303
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:21.599
the song, I remembered. But
we'll say yea and yeah. Right in
304
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:23.960
the beginning of the song, they
also, uh, you know, they
305
00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:30.160
call out the letters S, S
S, yes, safety Dance. So
306
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:33.720
yeah, okay, so you got
one hundred points, you got a hundred
307
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:40.079
points. I am. I am
like a Marlborough cigarette I am just burning
308
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:44.319
and lit up. I'm in control
of the board, not like the Marlborough
309
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:47.000
Man. Oh no, bro,
no, no, no, oh the
310
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:56.039
Marlborough Man. Did you know that
the Marlborough Man at one time was Tom
311
00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:57.960
Selleck. I did not know that. Was this in the eighties or was
312
00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:07.000
this seventh I believe this was probably
the seventies, possibly early eighties, But
313
00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:12.440
I don't know, because I know
that one spot when he was on the
314
00:27:12.440 --> 00:27:15.839
commercial, you know, brought him
a lot of recognition that later he became,
315
00:27:17.200 --> 00:27:21.319
you know, Magapiana, one of
the sexiest men on TV in the
316
00:27:21.319 --> 00:27:25.960
eightiesolutely no, no, denying that, No, denying that. No.
317
00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:30.799
And the shirt you're wearing that is
kind of a Tom saw it is.
318
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:33.279
I'm wearing the polo shirt with a
neck up. I forgot, you know.
319
00:27:33.319 --> 00:27:41.000
It's that royal electric blue that with
a little orange horse to my left.
320
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:45.039
Oh I think I'm missing? Is
my bright yellow sweater wrapped up in
321
00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:52.400
tine? Yes, yes, yes, you do need that. And you
322
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:55.720
know what else you need? Your
penny loafers and my white shorts. No,
323
00:27:55.759 --> 00:27:57.880
not white shorts, I would say
your stonewash. Yes, Junes,
324
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:06.400
oh, testing that's right. Oh
oh man, all right, everybody,
325
00:28:06.440 --> 00:28:07.960

We're gonna take a break. When we
326
00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:12.400
come back, we're gonna do some
changers and continue the madness here by stumping
327
00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:17.559
or trying to stump the chain.
We'll be right back right. Don't go

00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:57.640

All right, So we're going back to
358
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:18.559
the game where you know, you
get fifty points for naming the band,
359
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:22.920
of fifty points for naming the song. Here is song number five for you.
360
00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:26.599
Are you ready because I think I'm
gonna get you with this one?
361
00:31:27.000 --> 00:31:56.079
Here we God, that is correct? Good Lord, I've got to burn
362
00:31:56.200 --> 00:32:00.920
my head set in my microphone when
I'm done with this. I cannot believe
363
00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:04.839
that you have banged the chang with
the Cure. One hundred points for the
364
00:32:04.920 --> 00:32:10.079
chang forgetting that. Now. Funny
fact here the very first concert I went
365
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:15.119
on my own. I was fourteen
years old. I want to go see
366
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:22.599
the Cure in concert at the Los
Angeles Forum. My best friend and myself
367
00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:29.000
we wanted to go to the and
he had an older girlfriend who was working
368
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:31.920
at the forum. You know,
we're fourteen years old and his older girlfriend
369
00:32:31.960 --> 00:32:36.599
was eighteen, believe it or not, and she worked at the Forum and
370
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:40.039
meet us at you know, four
thirty. You know, concert starts at
371
00:32:40.079 --> 00:32:45.480
seven thirty, but meet me at
four thirty around this exit. And so
372
00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:51.519
we did. At four thirty,
we were there sharp and lo and behold
373
00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:54.920
she opened the door. We went
in and she goes, feel free to
374
00:32:55.759 --> 00:33:00.880
go anywhere you want in here.
So yeah, yeah, so we got
375
00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:07.319
the best the best seats in the
house. And it was great because nobody
376
00:33:07.359 --> 00:33:10.880
was sitting down anyway, everybody's standing
up. It was an incredible concert from
377
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:14.799
a very first concert. Wow.
Plus we didn't have to pay for it,
378
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:17.400
so it was double the pleasure.
All I can tell you is we
379
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:22.079
had a blast. And I,
like I told you last time, I
380
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:27.000
liked everything across the board. I
liked rock, I liked metal, I
381
00:33:27.160 --> 00:33:32.480
liked pop, I liked pretty much
everything except four one genre of music.
382
00:33:32.599 --> 00:33:37.000
I'm not gonna mention it because I
don't want to lose fans, but we're
383
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:42.759
not playing it tonight, I can
tell you that. But uh yeah,
384
00:33:42.799 --> 00:33:46.519
so you got one hundred points for
that because you guessed the cure and that
385
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:50.359
was in fact the cure. Are
you serious you hate the cure that much?
386
00:33:50.440 --> 00:33:52.440
Oh? Yes, bro, I'm
not a big fan of the cure
387
00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:53.680
at all. Bro, I mean, the guy just rubbed me the wrong
388
00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:59.039
way. I mean, you know
what. You know that movie Saw,
389
00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:01.160
They have like eight of them.
Yes, that's who. That guy looks
390
00:34:01.160 --> 00:34:05.599
like. That guy looks like the
character from Saw riding around on a bike,
391
00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:07.119
the little puppet on the Yeah,
the little puppet on the on the
392
00:34:07.159 --> 00:34:10.159
bicycle. Yeah, or a little
midget on the bicycle. That was a
393
00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:15.920
band them, and uh oh man, I just couldn't get into them,
394
00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:19.880
and I couldn't get into Culture Club. It was just uh to two metro
395
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:22.840
sex for the old chang. You
know what I'm saying. I was high
396
00:34:22.960 --> 00:34:29.119
on test stops rolling back. Are
you ready for number six? Oh?
397
00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:31.920
I was born Ready, Here we
go, my friend, and you mentioned
398
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:35.960
this band before, so there should
be no reason you can't get one hundred
399
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:47.280
points on this. Here we go. Yeah, the talking yes, only
400
00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:59.960
talking heads. And you should find
yourself. This would be shot man.
401
00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:04.840
And I forgot the name of the
song. Oh, don't tell me then
402
00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:07.719
let me see. You know what
I'm gonna I'm gonna have to ring the
403
00:35:07.719 --> 00:35:14.159
bell every time you mess up.
Yeah, yeah, all right, so
404
00:35:14.320 --> 00:35:21.480
you get fifty points for naming the
band, but you messed up on the
405
00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:23.840
name of the song. So I'll
let you hear this and then, uh
406
00:35:25.000 --> 00:35:32.079
see what you say when you hear
the name of the song. Oh,
407
00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:36.480
I got it, I got it
Once in a lifetime. That was the
408
00:35:36.559 --> 00:35:40.199
lyric right there. That was the
song once in a lifetime. It's once
409
00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:44.280
in a lifetime by the Talking Heads? Right now? Did you like the
410
00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:47.440
Talking Heads? Is this a group
that you would have listened to? This
411
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:51.159
is a band that I did listen
to. Bro I bought their first album,
412
00:35:51.159 --> 00:35:53.239
I like I say. I was
all about the metal and the hard
413
00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:57.760
rock and the classic rock and my
blues and stuff. But uh, there
414
00:35:57.880 --> 00:36:01.360
was there was quite a bit of
new wave bands that I partook in liking,
415
00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:06.320
and the Talking Heads is one of
them. I also mentioned rocky music,
416
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:09.280
you know, so the chant kind
of flipped around, you know what
417
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:13.159
I mean. If something was catching
to me, I'm gonna I'm gonna roll
418
00:36:13.159 --> 00:36:14.840
with it. I'm gonna get you
know, I'm gonna go out and I'm
419
00:36:14.840 --> 00:36:17.880
gonna get their album. I'm gonna
get their cossette. That's right, cassette.
420
00:36:19.519 --> 00:36:22.679
I was into the cassette back then. So I bet, I bet
421
00:36:22.719 --> 00:36:37.000
in secret you listen to this band. This is a good song right here,
422
00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:52.280
making love to you. Now,
can you, for fifty points name
423
00:36:52.440 --> 00:36:58.320
the band and for fifty points more
the song? Now this is they're getting
424
00:36:58.360 --> 00:37:04.920
harder. I'll melt with you.
Yes, I've melt with you. And
425
00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:08.400
now what is the name of the
band? Oh? Man, I don't
426
00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:15.119
know. I give up. I'm
gonna give you three seconds. Ah damn
427
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:20.400
it, all right, that's modern
English. You know what. I was
428
00:37:20.440 --> 00:37:22.480
actually going to say modern people.
For some reason, then I would have
429
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:29.920
looked like a classic stone or modern
people. What moron I do? It
430
00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:31.440
was gonna get you. I had
to get you. So you know what,
431
00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:35.559
You're not doing that bad? Not
not that bad. Here we go,
432
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:40.719
you're ready, We're almost done.
Here, here we go. This
433
00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:46.519
is a spandel ballet, my friend, and the song is true? Yes,
434
00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:55.039
who man, put another one in
my pipe and let me burn it
435
00:37:55.079 --> 00:38:00.599
away? Baby? Oh, give
him one her points? My friends?
436
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:04.519
Oh, you want to hear a
quick story? Here right I went.
437
00:38:05.159 --> 00:38:09.639
I went to see this band.
My girlfriend at the time went to Shurehai
438
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:15.360
and Montabello and I had just graduated
from Montabella High and uh she was my
439
00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:21.440
Japanese girlfriend and I took her.
She's the one that gave you the change.
440
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:25.119
Oh. She is one reason why
I got the name of the Chang
441
00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:31.719
Wang Bang. Thank you Chang.
Now I took her to see this band,
442
00:38:31.800 --> 00:38:36.559
okay, and Uh, I have
to tell you. I went in
443
00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:39.440
my heavy metal guard. I went
with the you know, the Holy Levi's.
444
00:38:39.559 --> 00:38:44.000
I went with the dog Martin.
So I went with the white leather
445
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:50.239
jacket with black fringes, and you
went, all, I just like you
446
00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:52.679

underneath. What do you think about that?
447
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:58.760
So we went to this concert,
right and Uh. Two songs into
448
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:00.920
the show, I had to get
the hell out of the auditorium and I
449
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:04.920
needed to go to the bathroom and
take care of my head. I won't
450
00:39:04.960 --> 00:39:07.079
tell you what I was doing in
there, but I took care of my
451
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:10.400
head, and I have to tell
you once I came back out under the
452
00:39:10.480 --> 00:39:14.400
influence. I had a good time
about that show, and I had a
453
00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:17.800
lot of respect for that band.
That guy could sing just about anything.
454
00:39:19.079 --> 00:39:23.440
If you were to put like a
Justin Kimberlake, that guy kind of would
455
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:28.440
be like a modern day Justin Kimberlake
because he could sing so many different styles
456
00:39:28.440 --> 00:39:31.679
of music. So I was sold
with him. I didn't buy an album.
457
00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:34.920
But it was a great show.
Oh, come on, tell the
458
00:39:34.920 --> 00:39:37.159
truth. You know you have your
look at that you still play in your
459
00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:40.239
band? Yeah, I bought a
suit like his two. Yes he did.
460
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:45.159
All right, here we go.
So you got one hundred points.
461
00:39:45.199 --> 00:39:47.800
There, you got a total of
three hundred, four hundred points. Here
462
00:39:47.840 --> 00:40:05.239
we go. Boom oh oh,
yes, who are we talking about here?
463
00:40:05.320 --> 00:40:19.639
For fifty points? Named the band? Yes, okay, so you
464
00:40:19.639 --> 00:40:22.639
know the tune, you know the
melody. Now named the band? I
465
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:30.239
think this is don't you want me? Yes, you got the name of
466
00:40:30.239 --> 00:40:32.800
the song. So that's fifty points. Now with the name of the band
467
00:40:34.239 --> 00:40:40.599
that is, I'm gonna give you
three seconds here. Oh wait, wait,
468
00:40:40.679 --> 00:40:50.679
wait, wait two the one modern
time time that is wrong. That
469
00:40:50.800 --> 00:40:54.639
is wrong. It's the Human League. Oh I like that. That is
470
00:40:54.679 --> 00:41:00.400
wrong. That is wrong. Not
once, that's twice good, that's three
471
00:41:00.440 --> 00:41:06.039
times. So do the matter gave
you the wrong name? So you got
472
00:41:06.039 --> 00:41:09.920
four fifty points? You're doing okay, I guess you know kind of what
473
00:41:09.960 --> 00:41:16.400
I expected. But uh rocks.
Here we go. Now this next band,
474
00:41:17.519 --> 00:41:23.119
this next band is probably my favorite
of the new wave bands. Right
475
00:41:23.519 --> 00:41:50.679
here we go, stream Mode.
Yes, fifty points because you got the
476
00:41:50.760 --> 00:41:52.639
name of the band right away.
Now what is the name of the song?
477
00:42:05.239 --> 00:42:13.280
I'm not gonna let it go all
right, I'm gonna give you three
478
00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:19.719
seconds breath away. Oh no,
you should have just waited, you know
479
00:42:19.760 --> 00:42:23.320
what you should have said. I
don't know what's the name of this song?
480
00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:29.239
Either way, I lost. The
name of the song is Strange Love.
481
00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:31.920
That's how it That's how it started
off by saying the name of the
482
00:42:31.960 --> 00:42:36.840
song. But depeche Mode. Now, I bet you that's the favorite song
483
00:42:36.880 --> 00:42:42.079
of Doctor Love Weapon. Strange Love. Doctor Love Weapon adores this song.
484
00:42:42.679 --> 00:42:47.159
He loves it. Yeah. Um, Now, interesting fact about depeche Mode.
485
00:42:47.719 --> 00:42:52.599
If you go and see they still
fill up concerts everywhere in Europe.
486
00:42:52.679 --> 00:42:55.800
We're talking big stadiums. Wow.
Depeche Mode is one of the few bands
487
00:42:57.039 --> 00:43:00.800
that you will see that not only
sing exactly as they did back in the
488
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:07.679
eighties. I mean they they sing
exactly, there's no difference, but they
489
00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:14.320
also almost almost almost look exactly the
same. They have really taken the Yeah.
490
00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:17.159
Now, whether it be plastic surgery, I don't know what, but
491
00:43:17.199 --> 00:43:22.079
the guys look in very very good
condition. Not many can say that they
492
00:43:22.159 --> 00:43:31.239
noticed the guy with a sixth pack
either I got added what? All right?
493
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:35.519
Here we go, second to last. You are never going to get
494
00:43:35.679 --> 00:43:37.840
this one. Okay, what do
you got? What do you got?
495
00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:49.880
What do you got? Let me
see, I'll give your hands. It
496
00:43:49.920 --> 00:43:59.760
was in your chamberings. No,
all right, let it go, let
497
00:43:59.760 --> 00:44:07.159
it go, let me hear,
let me hear it. Oh is this
498
00:44:07.360 --> 00:44:13.119
Thomas Dolby? Oh my god,
you're you're killing me here, you're killing
499
00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:16.440
me here. Now, I'm gonna
give you a break. All right.
500
00:44:17.360 --> 00:44:22.840
I'm gonna let you hear the chorus
line, and that's the only break you
501
00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:27.800
get. All right, So once
you listen to it, I'm gonna I'm
502
00:44:27.840 --> 00:44:40.239
gonna just pretend like you never guessed
at anything. Here we go. It
503
00:44:40.679 --> 00:44:45.800
is the one and only got to
be dance hall days. No, No,
504
00:44:46.079 --> 00:44:52.840
it's everybody have fun tonight. Okay, all right, so you got
505
00:44:52.840 --> 00:44:57.559
fifty points there. Jeez, it
was one of your changreas. Wasn't this
506
00:44:57.599 --> 00:45:01.519
one of those secret concerts you went
to? No, I was angry because
507
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:07.800
they didn't use my name, they
didn't go with the chang chong. But
508
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:12.320
I definitely needed to hear his voice
so I could know. Yeah, But
509
00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:15.599
like, I'm not too familiar with
some of the song titles. But you
510
00:45:15.679 --> 00:45:20.840
give the chang a good vocal tickle
in the ear, and uh, I'll
511
00:45:20.840 --> 00:45:23.159
come up with who that guy is? Not too bad? I told you,
512
00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:28.559
I told you a thousand times.
I told you a million times.
513
00:45:28.800 --> 00:45:35.480
A pity, A pity? Oh
who know the music rule? And I'm
514
00:45:35.480 --> 00:45:39.199
gonna let you hear the last one. But see, Wang Chung was one
515
00:45:39.199 --> 00:45:44.159
of those one of those bands that
even though they had a couple of big
516
00:45:44.239 --> 00:45:47.320
hits that were on the radio,
Yeah, and that's all day one of
517
00:45:47.400 --> 00:45:51.719
them. That's right. And those
are probably the only songs I ever got
518
00:45:51.719 --> 00:45:53.280
to know from them, But that
was good enough for me. I love
519
00:45:53.320 --> 00:46:00.440
those songs. So here is for
your listening pleasure, the last song of
520
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:10.079
the evening. Oh yes, all
right, can you tell before we start
521
00:46:10.519 --> 00:46:15.599
with the entire song, what is
the name of the bass for fears?
522
00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:22.039
My brother's fifty points right there now? The name of the song everybody wants
523
00:46:22.119 --> 00:46:30.800
to be No, fix it,
fix it, fix it? Almost everybody,
524
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:45.320
You are right, everybody wants to
ah. It used to be the
525
00:46:45.360 --> 00:46:49.440
song that Dennis Miller used to use
on his top. Yeah, yeah,
526
00:46:49.480 --> 00:46:53.920
everybody wants to be Oh no,
I'm gonna lose fifty points. I want
527
00:46:53.920 --> 00:47:01.639
pricking word unbelievable. Yes, you
got say you gotta before he sang it.
528
00:47:01.800 --> 00:47:06.519
So you made one points, totally
new up to about six hundred and
529
00:47:06.519 --> 00:47:09.519
fifty points, give or take another
one hundred hundred and fifty. But you,
530
00:47:09.639 --> 00:47:15.119
my friend, got six out of
ten. Right. Let me ask
531
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:20.639
you one question before we end the
show tonight. If you were given the
532
00:47:20.719 --> 00:47:25.719
chance to name a song that would
identify with the eighties as a decade itself,
533
00:47:27.719 --> 00:47:31.599
but you can only name one song. Let's say you were describing the
534
00:47:31.639 --> 00:47:37.039
eighties to some future generation in one
hundred years from our a thousand years from
535
00:47:37.039 --> 00:47:43.159
now, and you had only one
song, and you tell him this best
536
00:47:43.199 --> 00:47:49.280
describes the sound of the eighties.
This encapsulates the sound of the eighties in
537
00:47:49.440 --> 00:47:52.239
one song. So if you want
to know what the eighties were like,
538
00:47:52.880 --> 00:47:58.559
listen to this song. This is
eighties. What would that song be that
539
00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:01.159
would not be one of my medal
I'd do my Love, my Metal,
540
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:07.039
but I'd have to go with the
probably the B fifty twos, Planet Claire.
541
00:48:07.440 --> 00:48:12.480
I don't think there's any other song
that has got the whole can of
542
00:48:12.840 --> 00:48:17.760
soup and vegetables and meat that would
describe the eighties, like that song right
543
00:48:17.800 --> 00:48:22.679
there, So the B fifty twos, let me first tell you all right,
544
00:48:22.800 --> 00:48:27.079
Planet Claire brother, Planet Claire first
all the way. Yeah, so
545
00:48:27.199 --> 00:48:30.320
let me tell you so, my
relationship with the B fifty twos is one
546
00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:38.880
of dislike and almost of hate back
in the eighties because radio stations think,
547
00:48:39.079 --> 00:48:45.480
wow, these bands only play one
of two songs, right usually, and
548
00:48:45.559 --> 00:48:54.079
it was either what was it rock
Lobster or what was it the love Shack
549
00:48:54.280 --> 00:49:00.320
love Shack so and they both love
Shack used to come on literally used to
550
00:49:00.360 --> 00:49:06.199
want to vomit. I would change
it. Now you're thinking about this song
551
00:49:07.119 --> 00:49:21.880
right so now to you, by
the way, their hairstyles were something very
552
00:49:21.920 --> 00:49:27.119
interesting. Yea, So to you
this in your mind, this is what
553
00:49:27.280 --> 00:49:31.039
encapsulates the eighties. You would tell
somebody in a thousand years, you listen
554
00:49:31.079 --> 00:49:34.280
to this song, you get an
idea of what the eighties were all about.
555
00:49:35.840 --> 00:49:38.159
Yeah, exactly, Because if I
came up with a song from my
556
00:49:38.199 --> 00:49:43.480
metalist, they may get lost in
the seventies. Because the band may have
557
00:49:44.360 --> 00:49:49.400
originated in the seventies, maybe the
band carried on into the nineties. So
558
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:52.719
I thought this to me, would
be the best way to tell somebody,
559
00:49:52.760 --> 00:49:55.800
Hey, you want to know what
life was in the eighties, You want
560
00:49:55.800 --> 00:50:04.880
to know what type of music groups
that we had. You gotta listen to
561
00:50:04.960 --> 00:50:07.639
the B fifty twos and you got
to put Planet clar on. I mean
562
00:50:07.679 --> 00:50:12.159
this song, it's eerie, it's
hard rocking, it's got dance to it.
563
00:50:12.800 --> 00:50:15.079
The vocals in it, with all
of them, are fricking incredible.
564
00:50:15.880 --> 00:50:19.800
It sums it up. The way
that they look, the way they dressed.
565
00:50:20.239 --> 00:50:24.000
Dude, this is the band.
They should be the poster child of
566
00:50:24.159 --> 00:50:30.639
rock bands in the eighties on our
page. Definitely weird and definitely one of
567
00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:36.119
the songs that I probably never wanted
to listen to, because, like I
568
00:50:36.119 --> 00:50:38.039
said, when the B fifty twos
would come on, and when I would
569
00:50:38.039 --> 00:50:43.199
see their video on MTV, I
would just I would change it. I
570
00:50:43.199 --> 00:50:51.800
would rather listen to Wally George back
then PA Radio in the eighties than listen
571
00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:54.039
to the B fifty twos. That's
how much I used to hate them.
572
00:50:54.079 --> 00:50:59.360
Now. Back in the eighties,
I remember cruising up and down with your
573
00:50:59.400 --> 00:51:01.039
boulevard right because you know where I'm
from. You know a lot of our
574
00:51:01.039 --> 00:51:05.159
listeners may know where I'm from.
I'm from you know, I'm from the
575
00:51:05.159 --> 00:51:07.960
hood. I'm from Little Sun and
Delies. So we would cruise with your
576
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:12.360
boulevard during the eighties, right and
uh, I mean you had the homies,
577
00:51:12.400 --> 00:51:15.360
You're the home girls. You had
the disco chicks, a disco dudes.
578
00:51:15.400 --> 00:51:19.800
You had your kind of rockabilly dudes. You had us rock and rollers.
579
00:51:20.199 --> 00:51:22.599
And I remember me and my boys, we'd be cruising up with your
580
00:51:22.639 --> 00:51:25.559
boulevard and uh, when we roll
up, you know, you kind of
581
00:51:27.639 --> 00:51:30.440
hone in on the on the cars
full of chicks or if you see a
582
00:51:30.440 --> 00:51:32.719
group of chicks hanging out in the
street. I remember I would always blast
583
00:51:32.760 --> 00:51:37.239
this song, you know what I
mean, just as that catcher, you
584
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:39.280
know what I mean, Because you
hear this song coming out loud, everywhere
585
00:51:39.360 --> 00:51:43.360
turned their heads. Well that's a
crazy song. Who's playing it? Boom
586
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:45.400
a long haired guy. So it
kind of answers to the nostalgia, you
587
00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:49.760
know what I mean. So this
was always that was always a good song
588
00:51:49.840 --> 00:51:53.239
that I enjoyed, the cruising up
and down with your boulevard and then cranking
589
00:51:53.239 --> 00:51:58.400
it to the to the maximum and
breaking the knob off just to get that
590
00:51:58.519 --> 00:52:00.920
attention. A great band, I
thought, and I thought both chicks were
591
00:52:00.920 --> 00:52:04.639
hot. What are you gonna do
about that? Very interesting to know that.
592
00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:08.440
Now, if you were to ask
me and me going a thousand years
593
00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:13.760
into the future and try to explain
to somebody what song encapsulates the eighties,
594
00:52:14.920 --> 00:52:30.719
I would have no choice than to
tell you it's this song right here now.
595
00:52:30.800 --> 00:52:37.320
To me, this song brings everything
together of what the eighties and kids
596
00:52:37.599 --> 00:52:45.960
and teens and the culture brought us
in the eighties. This particular song I'll
597
00:52:45.960 --> 00:52:49.000
never forget because one of my favorite
movies back then in the eighties was The
598
00:52:49.000 --> 00:52:53.039
Breakfast Club and this this or the
movie. I don't know if the movie
599
00:52:53.079 --> 00:52:57.039
made this song even more of what
it was, but the song came out
600
00:52:57.039 --> 00:53:00.760
of the pack and it just blew
up because you could hear this song everywhere.
601
00:53:01.800 --> 00:53:07.039
I think that movie made a lot
more money for this song, I
602
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:10.400
really do, and that this is
a perfect song to play because it does
603
00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:14.400
embody everything about the eighties, and
the first thing you think about is that
604
00:53:14.519 --> 00:53:17.039
movie. Yeah, you know,
here's another song that I would have went
605
00:53:17.079 --> 00:53:22.760
with. My Number two would have
been by the Cars Moving in Stereo because
606
00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:28.440
you hear that song, and you
automatically remember Ridgemond High, you remember that
607
00:53:28.480 --> 00:53:34.400
movie, so you know, very
two very iconic songs. I think that
608
00:53:34.840 --> 00:53:38.880
both songs the movie made them more
money than when they both put those songs
609
00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:43.400
out on the albums. And both
bands are great bands in their own right.
610
00:53:43.840 --> 00:53:46.199
But I think the movie how both
of those songs, you know,
611
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:50.719
get sold out a little bit more? I would have to say yeah.
612
00:53:50.840 --> 00:53:55.239
And lastly, if you ask today
twenty twenty, what you think, what
613
00:53:55.440 --> 00:54:00.320
song you think encapsulated the eighties?
Believe it or not, Geico, Geico
614
00:54:00.480 --> 00:54:06.920
the insurance commercial has been making this
song go viral. I mean it's a
615
00:54:07.000 --> 00:54:10.800
huge song and uh, you know
it's not a song that I would have
616
00:54:10.800 --> 00:54:16.039
thought would have been, you know, one of our choices. But even
617
00:54:16.039 --> 00:54:31.079
the young kids know this song now. Oh yes, yes, you know
618
00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:36.400
you've seen that commercial, right,
Yes I have. Now. This song
619
00:54:37.480 --> 00:54:39.920
came out in my all time favorite
year of the eighties. So if I
620
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:43.960
could go back in the time machine, I would probably go back to nineteen
621
00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:50.679
eighty seven. Great song, A
great song by White Snake Coverdale Man a
622
00:54:50.920 --> 00:54:54.320
very interesting individual. This was the
White Snake was a great band. No,
623
00:54:54.440 --> 00:54:59.639
I won't say great. They were
a good band. Coverdale evolved from
624
00:54:59.679 --> 00:55:02.679
so many great metal bands, you
know, but he was always a pill
625
00:55:02.760 --> 00:55:07.360
And when somebody greater than he had
left that, I give him a lot
626
00:55:07.400 --> 00:55:14.159
of credit. This song has been
re edited and restructured. I'd say probably
627
00:55:14.239 --> 00:55:17.280
once every decade. There's a newer
version. Now I think that's the one
628
00:55:17.320 --> 00:55:22.000
that's on the on the commercial to
where it's uh, a little bit more
629
00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:28.840
poppy, a little bit more carried
out than the original version. But I
630
00:55:28.920 --> 00:55:31.320
gotta tell you, man, this
guy, if you wanted to be a
631
00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:36.039
sexy rocker, you wanted to look
like David Coverdale. Yeah. And then
632
00:55:36.840 --> 00:55:40.679
he married and and remember remember the
model he used to make the video he
633
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:45.960
married, Yet the actors married Tony
Katag that's right, and Tony Kittain.
634
00:55:46.599 --> 00:55:50.440
If you don't remember, if you
haven't seen this video, but you have
635
00:55:50.519 --> 00:55:53.760
seen the movie with Tom Hanks Bachelor
Park. Yes, she was he was
636
00:55:53.800 --> 00:55:59.079
in that that. She was Tom
hanks future wife in the in the movie
637
00:55:59.159 --> 00:56:02.639
right now. The sad story with
her is like she got hooked on drugs
638
00:56:02.639 --> 00:56:07.760
and alcohol and she builds a very
have you seen her face? My kids,
639
00:56:07.079 --> 00:56:10.719
My kids were watching Bachelor Party a
couple of weeks ago. And then
640
00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:15.920
my younger son says, you know, because my younger son thought she was
641
00:56:15.960 --> 00:56:19.159
really really cute in the movie.
And he goes, Dad, I mean,
642
00:56:19.159 --> 00:56:22.039
he goes, I got some really
bad news, and he shows me
643
00:56:22.199 --> 00:56:27.599
a picture of Tany in the year
twenty twenty. Now she destroyed her face
644
00:56:27.639 --> 00:56:31.480
with all this plastic surgeries. She
looks like she opened her her face and
645
00:56:31.480 --> 00:56:35.639
a bag of bees and they stung
the hell out of her. I mean,
646
00:56:35.719 --> 00:56:38.119
you know, she was good.
Those new killer hornets, those new
647
00:56:38.159 --> 00:56:44.480
wasp hornets from Africa. You know, it's just something that it's very sad
648
00:56:44.519 --> 00:56:49.239
to see. But this is the
song that Geko is making out to be
649
00:56:49.360 --> 00:56:52.519
the song of the eighties. Now, Yes, geicole Man, I'll tell
650
00:56:52.559 --> 00:56:55.119
you you know what what has always
intrigued me, Bro, And sometimes it
651
00:56:55.159 --> 00:57:00.760
gets me really angry because I don't
I don't ever want to come to the
652
00:57:00.840 --> 00:57:05.599
reality of I'm getting old, although
I am coming to that reality because hell
653
00:57:05.719 --> 00:57:07.960
man, I'm a grandpa already.
You would have thought the check would have
654
00:57:07.960 --> 00:57:13.559
been a grandfather. But when you
start seeing hearing some of these songs,
655
00:57:13.599 --> 00:57:15.960
Bro, that that we grew up
in our generation with and they're on a
656
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:21.599
commercial, you kind of smile because
that song makes you think of the past.
657
00:57:21.639 --> 00:57:23.239
And then when you when you come
back to reality, you're like,
658
00:57:24.119 --> 00:57:28.239
well, damn, when I'm old, I don't want to what I have
659
00:57:28.280 --> 00:57:30.159
to you know, what I have
to think about ed and I have to
660
00:57:30.199 --> 00:57:37.360
think about all these prices of vans
and cars and Salis. But I'm hearing
661
00:57:37.440 --> 00:57:40.559
great music. You know you said
you hit, You said something so important,
662
00:57:40.559 --> 00:57:45.480
because lately I've been thinking, um, you know what. We've been
663
00:57:45.480 --> 00:57:52.039
doing the show now for the tenth
straight week, and we've enjoyed reminiscing and
664
00:57:52.079 --> 00:57:55.199
the nostalgia and just the memories that
go along with it. But then you
665
00:57:55.199 --> 00:58:00.719
start to think, man, because
you start losing friends or you start losing
666
00:58:00.480 --> 00:58:06.159
you know, celebrities, celebrities from
back. Then they start going in different
667
00:58:06.159 --> 00:58:08.960
ways and you start going, oh, my gosh, I'm right, you
668
00:58:09.000 --> 00:58:14.159
know. I don't want to admit
it. And it's something that's deep down
669
00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:19.440
we and it's it's not that you're
afraid of the afterlife. It's not even
670
00:58:19.559 --> 00:58:22.880
that. It's just the fact that
you know that you're not there anymore,
671
00:58:22.960 --> 00:58:29.119
that the youth is gone. Yes, And I was talking to to my
672
00:58:29.199 --> 00:58:35.440
kids, and I was thinking,
she's how how this sucks. How that
673
00:58:35.599 --> 00:58:40.119
childhood lasts only ten ten to twelve
years child right, right? Your teens
674
00:58:40.119 --> 00:58:46.039
only last from thirteen to nineteen,
and they're done about ten years. Bro.
675
00:58:46.199 --> 00:58:50.880
The rest of the time, we're
talking twenty thirty, forty fifty sixty
676
00:58:50.960 --> 00:58:55.920
years as an adult, and it's
such a little time that we get to
677
00:58:55.960 --> 00:59:01.480
spend having fun in that, in
that with with our youth, with the
678
00:59:01.639 --> 00:59:07.519
vigor and with the strength, yes, and with the ability to to not
679
00:59:07.599 --> 00:59:09.719
get as hurt as we you know, we get hurt now at our age,
680
00:59:09.960 --> 00:59:15.519
and you just either you don't recover
or you don't recover completely right at
681
00:59:15.519 --> 00:59:21.800
all? Right, and uh and
and sometimes I think, man, that's
682
00:59:21.800 --> 00:59:24.239
what I miss most. You know, Yeah, you missed the nostalgia,
683
00:59:24.320 --> 00:59:29.079
Yeah you missed those memories. But
in reality, what we're really saying is
684
00:59:29.119 --> 00:59:32.960
I miss how I was. I
miss how I felt. I miss the
685
00:59:34.000 --> 00:59:37.880
fact that I could do so many
things and not feel the way I feel
686
00:59:37.920 --> 00:59:44.519
now when I try to sort of
do something similar. I I agree with
687
00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:50.559
you, brother, and I think
I think that's what's gonna make or break
688
00:59:51.440 --> 00:59:55.719
our children, for that wisdom that
we have because it's a knowledge broll you.
689
00:59:55.719 --> 01:00:00.320
You have to be very fortunate brother, if you realize you're more reality
690
01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:05.159
and you can look back at life
and say, well, I wouldn't change
691
01:00:05.199 --> 01:00:08.559
a thing because it may be who
I am, which sometimes is the better.
692
01:00:09.559 --> 01:00:15.000
You know, what my father always
told me growing up is the day
693
01:00:15.039 --> 01:00:19.119
you forget who you are and where
you come from, is the day that
694
01:00:19.199 --> 01:00:23.000
you don't know who you are.
And he always used to tell me that
695
01:00:24.320 --> 01:00:30.039
every decade of my life, I'm
going to have new friends and new enemies.
696
01:00:30.599 --> 01:00:36.400
And at the end of my life
you can count within two hands who
697
01:00:36.440 --> 01:00:40.320
your real loved ones and who your
real friends are. And and I've always
698
01:00:40.360 --> 01:00:45.960
held that to heart. And the
other thing I've learned that every experience that
699
01:00:45.000 --> 01:00:51.199
I've endeavored in both positive and negative, the end result was the one thing
700
01:00:51.280 --> 01:00:57.679
that money cannot buy, the one
thing that you cannot lose or leave behind
701
01:00:57.840 --> 01:01:00.960
unless it's in your loved ones,
is your with them. And I think
702
01:01:01.960 --> 01:01:07.440
as me and you do this show, uh and and I hope we bring
703
01:01:07.599 --> 01:01:15.360
as many good memories and laughs and
nostalgic ideas and hopes and smiles the same
704
01:01:15.400 --> 01:01:16.960
way we bring to each other as
we sit here, but we bring it
705
01:01:17.000 --> 01:01:23.280
to our listeners. You know,
you have to take to a contact.
706
01:01:23.320 --> 01:01:28.840
We're all on the same boat.
Mortality is in our hands. And I'm
707
01:01:28.840 --> 01:01:32.599
sure all of us in this generation, all of us listen, all of
708
01:01:32.599 --> 01:01:39.519
our listeners, both you and I. We're not young to not know that.
709
01:01:39.559 --> 01:01:45.440
We have all suffered losses. We've
lost family members, we've lost good
710
01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:52.599
friends, cousins, work associates,
and and and it's it's intriguing how you
711
01:01:52.679 --> 01:01:57.679
said, we have so much little
time to spend in our youth to make
712
01:01:57.760 --> 01:02:04.800
those mistakes correct. And then we
become adults to a sense, and we
713
01:02:04.840 --> 01:02:08.960
are forced into the real world.
And there's so many occasions, my brother,
714
01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:15.719
where people don't come out of the
other side normal with all their faculties,
715
01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:20.519
with the wisdom, with knowledge,
with knowing what not to do or
716
01:02:20.559 --> 01:02:25.119
what to do. And we see
that with our own generation now. And
717
01:02:27.320 --> 01:02:30.679
some people never grow up because you
don't have enough time to grow up.
718
01:02:31.320 --> 01:02:37.239
Some people never grow up because they
play the victim and they feel life was
719
01:02:37.280 --> 01:02:40.000
a little bit too hard. So
it's everybody else's fault, father's time's fault.
720
01:02:40.000 --> 01:02:45.880
But it's all about that wisdom you
get within those growing years. Yeah,
721
01:02:45.920 --> 01:02:51.599
the life experience. And I know
a lot of people who just refuse
722
01:02:51.760 --> 01:02:54.559
to grow up because they don't want
to. They don't want they feel that
723
01:02:54.719 --> 01:03:00.519
time approaching, and you just don't
want that to come to pass because when
724
01:03:00.559 --> 01:03:04.039
you're young, you know, you
think that where we're at now, when
725
01:03:04.079 --> 01:03:07.400
you're young, when when we were
back in the eighties, we thought of
726
01:03:07.480 --> 01:03:09.960
people our age. Now, we
thought of that being so far away.
727
01:03:10.039 --> 01:03:15.199
Now that it's here, you you
really wish you were back. It's almost
728
01:03:15.239 --> 01:03:20.920
as if we feel we didn't enjoy
enough, no matter how much fun we
729
01:03:20.920 --> 01:03:23.800
had or you know, whatever it
is that happened in our life, it's
730
01:03:23.840 --> 01:03:28.880
almost as we didn't get enough time. I want to end the show tonight,
731
01:03:29.639 --> 01:03:32.159
thanking you guys for being a part
of Back to the Eighties Radio here.
732
01:03:32.639 --> 01:03:37.400
Thanking you guys for letting Tuscano and
Chang be or have a little part
733
01:03:37.480 --> 01:03:43.400
in your daily life. Taken into
consideration that our lives are not you know,
734
01:03:43.400 --> 01:03:45.800
we're not here forever. We don't
last forever. But the little time
735
01:03:45.800 --> 01:03:52.119
that we can spend together reminiscing thinking
about those experiences just further on our wisdom
736
01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:57.159
to pass along to our children.
If you don't have any children, you
737
01:03:57.239 --> 01:04:02.000
pass it along to whoever you can. But the point is whatever it is
738
01:04:02.039 --> 01:04:06.519
that you went through, whether good
or bad, back then let that serve
739
01:04:06.639 --> 01:04:13.880
as good for future generations. In
anyone on behalf of Tiscano myself, I
740
01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:18.039
can ask you to just be safe
out there, treat this time with care,
741
01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:25.280
enjoy your time that you have here
right now, and over all things.
742
01:04:25.719 --> 01:04:29.599
Hey, just like me, be
thankful that you took part and you
743
01:04:29.760 --> 01:04:34.440
could live in a generation such as
the eighties. So be good to yourselves,
744
01:04:35.119 --> 01:04:40.760
love one another, and we'll see
you next Friday. Thanks for being
745
01:04:40.760 --> 01:04:45.719
with us. Beautiful words. Brother, I love when you get as deep
746
01:04:45.760 --> 01:04:48.039
as you do. You know we
both like to have a good time here.
747
01:04:48.039 --> 01:04:51.880
We're all about creating the lab,
making people smile, but we do
748
01:04:51.960 --> 01:04:56.679
have a very serious side. And
everybody out there, you know, we
749
01:04:56.840 --> 01:05:00.480
know that life is not the same. We don't have it the answers.
750
01:05:00.519 --> 01:05:03.519
We don't know when life will be
the same. But remember you have only
751
01:05:03.760 --> 01:05:06.840
given one life. Live it to
the best that you can. You go
752
01:05:06.880 --> 01:05:12.159
out there and stand for somebody that
can't stand for themselves. I want you
753
01:05:12.199 --> 01:05:17.000
to remember to stay lifted and gifted
and always remember to watch out for your
754
01:05:17.039 --> 01:05:21.440
neighbor. We are all we have. We are one race, the human
755
01:05:21.519 --> 01:05:27.639
race. So until next Friday,
from the legend in my own mind,
756

00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:37.640
Stallion. Oh babies, mister Mario

We're here another Friday. Man.
It's so good to see you as always.
13
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:44.239
You know, you got John Lennon
in the background, you got Jimmy
14
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:51.239
Hendrix, and you've got a stuffed
toy of Luigi, which I am a
15
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:57.120
little offended of course, because you
should have had. Mario. Well,
16
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.519
a quick story on that. Now. Luigi came to me from a lady
17
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:07.519
in Pittsburgh. That's right. I
attended a Dodger game against the Pittsburgh Pirates
18
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:15.479
and this, uh, this stopped
human was thrown at me because I had
19
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:22.360
to say a couple of uncaring words
about the Pittsburgh pir Yes, I saved
20
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:27.960
it. And now the reason she
took it because it's a backpack. You
21
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.960
can put small things in the back
of it. I'm not going to tell
22
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:36.520
you what the chang you please don't
know, but I will tell you.
23
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:40.879
If I leave it in public,
I won't claim it, all right.
24
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:45.919
I do want to remind everybody listening

crack the windows. For the love
of God, cracked the windows. This
39
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:52.280
week we are finalizing all right,
we're finishing up our four part series on
40
00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:54.879
music in the eighties. That doesn't
mean we're not gonna be talking about music
41
00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:59.400
of the eighties anymore, but at
least for this four part series, we're
42
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:02.080
going to be all done. And
today, Chang, now I know,
43
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:05.520
I know, today is gonna be
a little bit hard for you to to
44
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:12.560
swallow. Why because you are the
man of the metal cloth, you are
45
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:17.040
the man of the hard rock guitar. Yes, and today we're gonna be
46
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:24.079
talking about new wave an alternative.
Now remember here, your present jock of
47
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:29.439
the rock did surprise you and all
the cats and kiddies his last two shows
48
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:33.639
ago. With my knowledge of the
pop music in the eighties, Did I
49
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:40.399
not? Did I not bend the
strong? I did? You did?
50
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:44.480
So speaking about new wave? To
take this out, so I went on
51
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:47.639
Wikipedia. And you know, everything
in Wikipedia is true. I know everything
52
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:50.759
that you find on the Internet is
true. Yeah, So I looked up.
53
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:55.959
I looked up the term new wave, because we've called it new waves
54
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.079
since we were you know, young. Yes, And I didn't know it
55
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:06.160
originated, you know, from something
totally unrelated from French new wave, the
56
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:12.839
French new wave cinema movement. I
guess it was used as a catch all
57
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:16.560
for the music that emerged after punk
rock. It included punk itself, of
58
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:24.759
course, but retrospectively as as an
accessible counterpart of post punk. How's that
59
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:29.439
for a little bit of trivia knowledge
for you. I thoroughly enjoyed that bit
60
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:31.800
of trivia knowledge. I'm sure all
the cats and kiddies out there in the
61
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:36.079
eighties land they probably are kickled pink
with it too, my friend, and
62
00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:41.959
nobody cares. What they do care
about is the actual music itself. And
63
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:46.480
yes, so let me know,
all right, I've got a question for
64
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:50.000
you. So, growing up in
the eighties and hearing you know, there
65
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:56.120
was so many different genres of music. Talking about new wave, was there
66
00:05:56.240 --> 00:06:02.160
anytime that the chang in secret,
maybe in his closet somewhere. Maybe you
67
00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:08.639
were a closet new waiver. Did
you ever put on some new wave just
68
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:13.399
for yourself? Maybe you had the
walkman on and you had the headphones,
69
00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:18.399
and well, nobody was listening,
but you you secretly went to hear the
70
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:24.040
Cure or somebody like that. Well, I'm going to I'm going to dive
71
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:30.800
into some type of a secret that
I don't share with not too many except
72
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:35.839
the homies and the whole matchs of
My Beautiful moonbe Okudi Vould. Yeah.
73
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:42.160
Back in the eighties, one of
my favorite bands in the new wave scene
74
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:49.279
has to be no other than Devo
and Now I did like yes and I
75
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:54.759
also was a big fan of Men
at Work my brother now now well,
76
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.360
yeah, I love love, love, love love the music of Men at
77
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:02.560
Work. With Divo. You know, everybody knows their Whippe song, right,
78
00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:08.199
but they had another another song?
Well, they had many songs,
79
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:12.360
right. Is there a different song
that you liked from Devo that wasn't Whippo?
80
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.240
Yeah, dude, I mean geez, let me see. Yeah,
81
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:20.079
we are Divo we Are Divo?
Was that? Now? That wasn't one
82
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:24.240
that we've heard a lot on the
radio? Was it? You heard it
83
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:28.920
periodically, but it kind of got
downplayed with you know, there are other
84
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:32.360
great songs, but I mean it
was like we are divod Eve. Oh
85
00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:45.959
you know I also liked I liked
whipp It you're talking about this one?
86
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:48.759
It had a really good beat.
Man Yeah, now you want to hold
87
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:53.319
you want to know something real quick. The mother's brob brothers that were in
88
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:58.240
this band are the h I don't
know if they're the creators or the musical
89
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:05.600
directors of many cartoons that got made
into the nineties by the Rugrats. Is
90
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:13.519
the most famous that they are known
for, and that's Devo. Are we
91
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:20.879
not men? As the question?
The answer is we are Devo? Not
92
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.639
bad? Not bad? And you
know what, I didn't know that about
93
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:26.160
the Rugrats. I was a fan
of the Talking Heads also, that was
94
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:31.800
another bad David Byrne was a guy
that I really used to like to listen
95
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:35.600
to. I also liked roxy music. So you know, the chang has
96
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:41.840
swam in the waters of the new
wave music scene just as well as I
97
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:46.679
dove into the oceans and conquered the
sharks of the whales in the metal genre.
98
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:52.639
My brother, let's do this.
Let's go ahead and take a small
99
00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:56.200

110
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.320
is from the great band back in
the eighties, the Wall of Voodoo.
111
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:05.600
And if you were wondering where me
and Tuscotto went, we were on the
112
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:26.320
radio in Mexico. That's right,
A Mexican radio broad can't understand, dude
113
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:31.000
that that song. You gotta admit
it's a catchy song, brother, it's
114
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.799
a very canty song. What an
interesting name, man, Wall of Voodoo.
115
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.279
Do you remember when it was the
first time you heard of him?
116
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:41.559
Yeah, that was on MTV when
this video came up, and that was
117
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:46.360
a trippy video. Yeah, you
know what I consider the Wall of Voodoo
118
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:54.200
now Trump's imagine every wall boot said
that I do it was gonna come up
119
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.639
sooner later. So this is the
one and only back to the eighties with
120
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:05.440
the ones and only Tusconowin Chang.

to play a little game and see your
122
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:15.600
knowledge and the Chang's knowledge of some
songs, not all of them. So
123
00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:18.080
you know what, if we do
skip your song, we don't have your
124
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:22.600
song. Maybe for next show.
Don't forget to give us a call or

at Facebook. But for now, I'm

00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:31.679
going to give you a little test, Chang and see how is your knowledge
127
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:37.559
of eighties new wave And we'll talk
about each songing as we go. Are

00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:43.440

00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:03.759
So what you have to tell me
is the name of the band and the
134
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.600
name of the song, if you
know it, all right? Each each
135
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:13.759
right answer counts as fifty points,
so an entire answer is worth, of
136
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:18.360
course, one hundred points. Right
here we go, big winner. Here,
137
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:22.120
by the way, if you win
this contest back to the eighties,
138
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:28.159
is going to give you a gift
certificate, all right, a gift certificate
139
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:33.559
from nineteen eighty seven to McDonald's.
It's a five dollars gift certificate from nineteen
140
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:37.720
eighty seven McDonald All right. That's
your get you, that's your get you
141
00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:43.039
something good. Alright. I want
to get some moldy fries with that from
142
00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:52.240
from the dollar menu. All right, here we go. Oh, yes,
143
00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:58.159
I know who this is? Right, all right? Who are So
144
00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:03.360
let's see what is the name of
the band. This is Duran Duran.
145
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:09.360
Oh, fifty points for you,
and I believe this is called the Reflex.
146
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:15.600
Wow, well you know what you
got. You got fifty points.
147
00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:18.919
Man, you only got fifty points. And I'll tell you why. Listen
148
00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:33.039
to this? Oh it was from
Ja Kill. That's right. I said,
149
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:37.080
I'm gonna throw him a curveball because
the first song I was gonna choose
150
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:39.840
was Reflex And I said, no, that's too easy. Chain will get
151
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:46.200
it. Rotten man. You that
is a soundtrack from James Bond. That's
152
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:50.919
correct. The movie was of You
to a Kill, all right, So
153
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:56.039
Duran Duran, of You to a
Kill. A lot of people say,
154
00:13:56.039 --> 00:13:58.120
and I don't know if you agree
with this, A lot a lot of
155
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:03.600
people say that Duran Duran is the
originator or the guys who kicked it all
156
00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:07.919
off, the new wave movement.
You know what I would I would probably
157
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.200
say it's between Duran Duran, Tears
for Fears, and even possibly Culture Club.
158
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:22.480
Ah. You can always throw into
the mix there, Blondie. You
159
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:26.519
think Blondie, Uh, well yeah
you have to if you're talking about Blondie.
160
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:30.960
Blondie I believe started in the late
seventies, but she really got really
161
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:35.000
her wheels under in the eighties.
Some say that Blondie had one of the
162
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:41.759
first rap type uh songs and uh, you know, kind of Blondie and
163
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:46.720
the Pretenders kind of took rock and
roll into another era. I think that's
164
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:50.559
kind of like new wave. That's
why I say you can go with I
165
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:54.440
mean, look at that track we
just heard from Dvo. Very punk rock
166
00:14:54.639 --> 00:15:01.159
is sound, but it wasn't as
raw and ruthless as punk rock was back
167
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:03.559
then, you know what I mean. They were in a band that was
168
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:09.279
singing about anarchy and down with the
queen or down with the President. They
169
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:13.360
weren't as political. But then you
do have bands like The Clash that popped
170
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:18.799
up into the eighties that are kind
of on the balance of new wave punk
171
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:26.000
rebellion type music. So there's so
many different bands that you can probably say
172
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:31.919
started the new wave craze here in
the States, but then you can also
173
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:37.559
say that it started off and then
these are just bands that kind of fell
174
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:43.039
into place right right now. Well, definitely Duran. With Duran Duran,
175
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:46.440
we're definitely getting into one of those
bands that are some of the most famous
176
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.919
and that still if it wasn't for
this whole COVID nineteen fiasgo, they'd still
177
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.879
be filling up stadiums at least in
Europe. I don't know here in the
178
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.960
United States because one of the biggest
things that has happened here in the States
179
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:04.960
is we have cut off any sort
of, you know, introduction to what
180
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:10.960
was really popular in the eighties to
the newer generation. And that's one of
181
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:14.000
the main reasons we're doing the show, is because we're bringing back the eighties
182
00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:18.279
to that whole new generation, wanting
to make them understand us a little bit
183
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:23.240
better and understand the music, our
culture that we grew up with. So
184
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:29.440
you got fifty points with Duran Duran. Yes, this next band, This
185
00:16:29.559 --> 00:16:34.919
next band they still play today.
They've been honored recently in twenty nineteen.
186
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:53.320
This is the band all this is, I believe the pet shovels sixty points
187
00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.759
for you. What is the name
of the song. I'll give you a
188
00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:03.480
few more seconds to listen to say
kicking a chance and nuking downtables and restaurants
189
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:08.799
in a west End town. Western
boys blows. You know what, Downtown
190
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:22.799
boys, Downtown boys, East End
girls and girls, you know west End
191
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:25.680
girls. You got another fifty points. I was gonna give you it.
192
00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:27.359
But you know what, it wouldn't
be fair. It wouldn't be fair.
193
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:30.960
So we want to be here.
You should only give you should only give
194
00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:40.720
me twenty five points because I said
west End Boys were Well, how about
195
00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:45.359
this, I'm gonna give you fifty
points because you got the pen Shop Boys,
196
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.319
okay, and then I'll give you
a pat on the back for getting
197
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:56.640
you know, east End Girls when
it was west End Girls. All right,
198
00:17:56.799 --> 00:18:00.599
I'll take the fifty points and I
will take the Jessica Chang kick to
199
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:04.759
the keys and it's not even any
right. You get the pan on the
200
00:18:04.799 --> 00:18:10.880
back. Nice now, I hope, I hope we're going to talk about
201
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:15.359
another great band to be fifty twos. It's another great band. We will
202
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.880
get there. Regarding the pet Shop
Boys, west End Girls was the Chang
203
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:23.400
a big proponent on listening to the
pet Shop Boys back in the eighties.
204
00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:26.400
No, no, I don't want
to step on anybody's toes. But back
205
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:32.440
in the eighties I thought they were
a bit too feminine for my liking.
206
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:34.960
Well, but they're always worrying.
Those trench coats. They you know,
207
00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:38.720
they were a suit. They look
good. What do you mean a little
208
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:42.880
feminine? Well, they were sissioush
I'm not saying they were gay or anything.
209
00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:47.960
They were just a little bit sissious. They were like too too delicate.
210
00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:51.519
It was delicate music. It was
like, Okay, you want to
211
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:53.519
put that stuff on when you're going
on without with a girl that you're not
212
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.759
sure if she likes the same kind
of music as you. You know,
213
00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:00.200
maybe you want to mix it up
because maybe she's in the dance crazy,
214
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.880
so you kind of want to mix
it up with music like that. But
215
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:07.319
then they getting back in the eighties, everybody had big hair, so you
216
00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:11.839
had to constantly put different vibes out
there to see what fish was gonna bite
217
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:15.319
me. Personally, I'm not a
big pet Shop Boy fan. What can
218
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.519
I say. I didn't even like
going to pet shops back then. I
219
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:21.000
just went to Siaka and got a
dog. How's that? Well? You
220
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:23.440
know, the Pet Shop Boys had
a couple of really really big hits,
221
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:26.799
and this was probably one of their
biggest West End girls. But they also
222
00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:30.519
had a song always on my mind. To believe it or not, you
223
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:33.079
remember that. I think if you
sing it to me, I'll remember it.
224
00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:37.200
Well. I don't know if I'm
gonna sing it to you. But
225
00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:41.119
always on my mind was watch.
So I'm gonna play it for you right
226
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:47.960
now. Can you tell me who
comes to mind when they start singing?
227
00:19:48.200 --> 00:19:51.759
Always on my mind? Okay,
all right, it's gonna have that.
228
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:55.599
It's gonna have that familiar tune to
it. So I want you to tell
229
00:19:55.599 --> 00:20:00.200
me you you make that decision.
So here we go. Hopefully it's it's
230
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:06.599
up soon. It does. Yeah, it kind of does remind me a
231
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:15.799
little bit of Willie Nelson, you
know. And yes they had the eighties
232
00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:19.119
synthesizers, of course, but here
we go. That is like, yeah,
233
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:22.279
that's exactly the same songs by Willie. Nothing. Now, I do
234
00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:26.240
got to give it to these guys
because they did put a pretty a trippy
235
00:20:26.319 --> 00:20:30.680
twist on it, you know what
I mean. But you would have never
236
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:37.799
they would have never. Never would
I have gone on that point. I
237
00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:45.279
wanted Cowbell No, So that,
my friend is we need more the Pitch
238
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:48.039
Up Boys. And they had a
bunch of other ones too, and they
239
00:20:48.039 --> 00:20:52.559
were recently, I believe in twenty
nineteen they were. They got some award.
240
00:20:53.000 --> 00:20:56.880
So, yes, you got fifty
points for Duran. Duran, you
241
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:02.759
got fifty points, all right,
So you're basically at fifty percent. You're
242
00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:07.279
bating fifty all right, very cool. I love it, you know.
243
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:10.119
I like to swing both ways,
my brother, when I'm at the play.
244
00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:21.039
Here is song number three for you. Oh, this is no other
245
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:26.319
than our House Madness. Yes,
a full one hundred points for you,
246
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:33.799
one hundred points for the chang now
no madness. Madness is a song that
247
00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:38.759
I started listening obviously, very very
early here the eighties. Yes, and
248
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:48.559
it's it's got such a such a
I mean everything about the song just breathes
249
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:53.279
nostalgia to me. And and uh, it just brings back so many,
250
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:57.920
so many good memories this band.
If you remember the video, I always
251
00:21:59.039 --> 00:22:03.759
thought the lead singer looked like a
young Drew Kerry without blasting that could be
252
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:10.759
and a young skinny one too,
you could say, another great bat back
253
00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:15.359
in the April in Excess. In
Excess was a tremendous band. I think
254
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:19.640
one of the greatest bands that came
out of the eighties. And rest his
255
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:26.559
soul man, Michael Hutchins. Guy
was like to me, Michael Hutchins kind
256
00:22:26.559 --> 00:22:30.559
of represented like a Jim Morrison in
new way. You know. He actually
257
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:33.759
kind of kind of reminded me of
Jim Morrison too. He had that hair
258
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:38.119
going on. Yes, he had
that semi serious vibe going on, that
259
00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:42.160
poetic kind of look going on,
looked like he Yeah, he had that
260
00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:47.200
aura. Yeah, it looked like
he needed to smoke a pipe and and
261
00:22:47.400 --> 00:22:52.119
uh go to Starbucks with his rolled
up jeans tucked into his boots or something.
262
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:59.440
Yeah, with his V neck t
shirts. Yes, writing a cafe
263
00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:03.640
racer more cycle. Yeah, but
you gotta so. You got one hundred
264
00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:07.160
points, man, you got you
got one hundred points there because you got
265
00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:14.319
madness and you got our house probably
beyond a doubt. One one of my
266
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:19.000
all time favorite eighties songs, Oh
without a doubt, all right, and
267
00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:26.359
the game continues. The game continues. Here we go. Here is number
268
00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:30.400
four for you. By the way, I do want a little caveat here.
269
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:37.480
This next song is from one of
those bands that maybe had well,
270
00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:41.599
it was one of those one hit
wonders. Maybe had one more good song,
271
00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:45.519
Sami. I'm not gonna call it
a good song, but one Sami
272
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:48.200
good song. After this, and
then from then on when they go to
273
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:53.319
eighties reunions and parties, they can
only sing this song. This might be
274
00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:59.880
difficult because I'd be a little difficult. It's there. It's a one hundred
275
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:03.880
under, but it's here's the difference. Though this song has been played so
276
00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:08.279
much for since since it came out, it is bigger today than it was
277
00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:12.039
then. It is huge. Okay, it is huge and you're gonna know
278
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:17.960
it right away. Um, but
this goes for a hundred points right here
279
00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:37.119
we go? Yeah we do.
Now, when this song came out such
280
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:42.720
a just catchy tune, you would
think, man, this this this band
281
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:47.319
is gonna go just off the charts. They're good, Yes, they're gonna
282
00:24:47.359 --> 00:24:52.480
fly. When I saw this guy
the song, I mean they he's got
283
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:56.720
a strong voice. They have a
pretty good backbeat behind him. Yeah.
284
00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:59.759
Well he looked like he came out
of the renaissance Sarah, and that's you
285
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:03.039
know, his video has to do
with a renaissance and stuff like that.
286
00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:07.200
The little midget dressed as a joker. Yeah that kind of didn't that freak
287
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:10.839
you out? I mean I didn't
want to watch the video after twelve o'clock.
288
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:12.559
If I was a knee brave,
I thought the little dude would come
289
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:15.200
to a window roan hack me away. Yeah, yeah, he had that
290
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:19.960
kind of look. But now this
band is Men Without Hats, brother right
291
00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:25.160
now, And here's the tricky part. The name of the song can mislead
292
00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:29.960
you because a lot of people just
say what the chorus says, right,
293
00:25:30.640 --> 00:25:33.960
and they don't remember the name of
the song. So for fifty points more
294
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:37.039
to give you an even one hundred, what is the name of this song
295
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:42.319
you can dance? See? This
song always gets people because they think it's
296
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:48.599
called you can dance if you want
to, right this, But it's not.
297
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:55.640
No, I I can't think of
the dang name. Wait a minute,
298
00:25:55.720 --> 00:26:00.880
all right, So it's the Safety
Dance, the safe You looked that
299
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:03.720
up. You had enough time to
look it up, all right, I'm
300
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:07.759
gonna give that to you for a
full one hundred points. But this was
301
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:11.759
Men Without Hats and that was safety
Dance. Now. I was looking it
302
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:15.960
up, but I could not find
it. And then as I was singing
303
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:21.599
the song, I remembered. But
we'll say yea and yeah. Right in
304
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:23.960
the beginning of the song, they
also, uh, you know, they
305
00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:30.160
call out the letters S, S
S, yes, safety Dance. So
306
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:33.720
yeah, okay, so you got
one hundred points, you got a hundred
307
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:40.079
points. I am. I am
like a Marlborough cigarette I am just burning
308
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:44.319
and lit up. I'm in control
of the board, not like the Marlborough
309
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:47.000
Man. Oh no, bro,
no, no, no, oh the
310
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:56.039
Marlborough Man. Did you know that
the Marlborough Man at one time was Tom
311
00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:57.960
Selleck. I did not know that. Was this in the eighties or was
312
00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:07.000
this seventh I believe this was probably
the seventies, possibly early eighties, But
313
00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:12.440
I don't know, because I know
that one spot when he was on the
314
00:27:12.440 --> 00:27:15.839
commercial, you know, brought him
a lot of recognition that later he became,
315
00:27:17.200 --> 00:27:21.319
you know, Magapiana, one of
the sexiest men on TV in the
316
00:27:21.319 --> 00:27:25.960
eightiesolutely no, no, denying that, No, denying that. No.
317
00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:30.799
And the shirt you're wearing that is
kind of a Tom saw it is.
318
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:33.279
I'm wearing the polo shirt with a
neck up. I forgot, you know.
319
00:27:33.319 --> 00:27:41.000
It's that royal electric blue that with
a little orange horse to my left.
320
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:45.039
Oh I think I'm missing? Is
my bright yellow sweater wrapped up in
321
00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:52.400
tine? Yes, yes, yes, you do need that. And you
322
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:55.720
know what else you need? Your
penny loafers and my white shorts. No,
323
00:27:55.759 --> 00:27:57.880
not white shorts, I would say
your stonewash. Yes, Junes,
324
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:06.400
oh, testing that's right. Oh
oh man, all right, everybody,
325
00:28:06.440 --> 00:28:07.960
this is back to the eighties.
We're gonna take a break. When we
326
00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:12.400
come back, we're gonna do some
changers and continue the madness here by stumping
327
00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:17.559
or trying to stump the chain.
We'll be right back right. Don't go
328
00:28:17.599 --> 00:28:25.319

00:28:25.400 --> 00:28:32.279
eighties. Let me explain something.

in the eighties? The band name? Oh, you know what got me
339
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:32.799
changry back in the eighties. What's
that the long lines being formed to buy
340
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:38.720
a cabbage patch kid doll. You

eighties? What's that going on airplanes and
343
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:57.640
finding out that they could smoke inside
the airplane? That was a changing.
344
00:29:59.319 --> 00:30:04.039
You know what got me changry in

00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:51.839
in a whole other fashion, Because

358
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:18.559
the game where you know, you
get fifty points for naming the band,
359
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:22.920
of fifty points for naming the song. Here is song number five for you.
360
00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:26.599
Are you ready because I think I'm
gonna get you with this one?
361
00:31:27.000 --> 00:31:56.079
Here we God, that is correct? Good Lord, I've got to burn
362
00:31:56.200 --> 00:32:00.920
my head set in my microphone when
I'm done with this. I cannot believe
363
00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:04.839
that you have banged the chang with
the Cure. One hundred points for the
364
00:32:04.920 --> 00:32:10.079
chang forgetting that. Now. Funny
fact here the very first concert I went
365
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:15.119
on my own. I was fourteen
years old. I want to go see
366
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:22.599
the Cure in concert at the Los
Angeles Forum. My best friend and myself
367
00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:29.000
we wanted to go to the and
he had an older girlfriend who was working
368
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:31.920
at the forum. You know,
we're fourteen years old and his older girlfriend
369
00:32:31.960 --> 00:32:36.599
was eighteen, believe it or not, and she worked at the Forum and
370
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:40.039
meet us at you know, four
thirty. You know, concert starts at
371
00:32:40.079 --> 00:32:45.480
seven thirty, but meet me at
four thirty around this exit. And so
372
00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:51.519
we did. At four thirty,
we were there sharp and lo and behold
373
00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:54.920
she opened the door. We went
in and she goes, feel free to
374
00:32:55.759 --> 00:33:00.880
go anywhere you want in here.
So yeah, yeah, so we got
375
00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:07.319
the best the best seats in the
house. And it was great because nobody
376
00:33:07.359 --> 00:33:10.880
was sitting down anyway, everybody's standing
up. It was an incredible concert from
377
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:14.799
a very first concert. Wow.
Plus we didn't have to pay for it,
378
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:17.400
so it was double the pleasure.
All I can tell you is we
379
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:22.079
had a blast. And I,
like I told you last time, I
380
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:27.000
liked everything across the board. I
liked rock, I liked metal, I
381
00:33:27.160 --> 00:33:32.480
liked pop, I liked pretty much
everything except four one genre of music.
382
00:33:32.599 --> 00:33:37.000
I'm not gonna mention it because I
don't want to lose fans, but we're
383
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:42.759
not playing it tonight, I can
tell you that. But uh yeah,
384
00:33:42.799 --> 00:33:46.519
so you got one hundred points for
that because you guessed the cure and that
385
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:50.359
was in fact the cure. Are
you serious you hate the cure that much?
386
00:33:50.440 --> 00:33:52.440
Oh? Yes, bro, I'm
not a big fan of the cure
387
00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:53.680
at all. Bro, I mean, the guy just rubbed me the wrong
388
00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:59.039
way. I mean, you know
what. You know that movie Saw,
389
00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:01.160
They have like eight of them.
Yes, that's who. That guy looks
390
00:34:01.160 --> 00:34:05.599
like. That guy looks like the
character from Saw riding around on a bike,
391
00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:07.119
the little puppet on the Yeah,
the little puppet on the on the
392
00:34:07.159 --> 00:34:10.159
bicycle. Yeah, or a little
midget on the bicycle. That was a
393
00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:15.920
band them, and uh oh man, I just couldn't get into them,
394
00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:19.880
and I couldn't get into Culture Club. It was just uh to two metro
395
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:22.840
sex for the old chang. You
know what I'm saying. I was high
396
00:34:22.960 --> 00:34:29.119
on test stops rolling back. Are
you ready for number six? Oh?
397
00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:31.920
I was born Ready, Here we
go, my friend, and you mentioned
398
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:35.960
this band before, so there should
be no reason you can't get one hundred
399
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:47.280
points on this. Here we go. Yeah, the talking yes, only
400
00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:59.960
talking heads. And you should find
yourself. This would be shot man.
401
00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:04.840
And I forgot the name of the
song. Oh, don't tell me then
402
00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:07.719
let me see. You know what
I'm gonna I'm gonna have to ring the
403
00:35:07.719 --> 00:35:14.159
bell every time you mess up.
Yeah, yeah, all right, so
404
00:35:14.320 --> 00:35:21.480
you get fifty points for naming the
band, but you messed up on the
405
00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:23.840
name of the song. So I'll
let you hear this and then, uh
406
00:35:25.000 --> 00:35:32.079
see what you say when you hear
the name of the song. Oh,
407
00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:36.480
I got it, I got it
Once in a lifetime. That was the
408
00:35:36.559 --> 00:35:40.199
lyric right there. That was the
song once in a lifetime. It's once
409
00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:44.280
in a lifetime by the Talking Heads? Right now? Did you like the
410
00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:47.440
Talking Heads? Is this a group
that you would have listened to? This
411
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:51.159
is a band that I did listen
to. Bro I bought their first album,
412
00:35:51.159 --> 00:35:53.239
I like I say. I was
all about the metal and the hard
413
00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:57.760
rock and the classic rock and my
blues and stuff. But uh, there
414
00:35:57.880 --> 00:36:01.360
was there was quite a bit of
new wave bands that I partook in liking,
415
00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:06.320
and the Talking Heads is one of
them. I also mentioned rocky music,
416
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:09.280
you know, so the chant kind
of flipped around, you know what
417
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:13.159
I mean. If something was catching
to me, I'm gonna I'm gonna roll
418
00:36:13.159 --> 00:36:14.840
with it. I'm gonna get you
know, I'm gonna go out and I'm
419
00:36:14.840 --> 00:36:17.880
gonna get their album. I'm gonna
get their cossette. That's right, cassette.
420
00:36:19.519 --> 00:36:22.679
I was into the cassette back then. So I bet, I bet
421
00:36:22.719 --> 00:36:37.000
in secret you listen to this band. This is a good song right here,
422
00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:52.280
making love to you. Now,
can you, for fifty points name
423
00:36:52.440 --> 00:36:58.320
the band and for fifty points more
the song? Now this is they're getting
424
00:36:58.360 --> 00:37:04.920
harder. I'll melt with you.
Yes, I've melt with you. And
425
00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:08.400
now what is the name of the
band? Oh? Man, I don't
426
00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:15.119
know. I give up. I'm
gonna give you three seconds. Ah damn
427
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:20.400
it, all right, that's modern
English. You know what. I was
428
00:37:20.440 --> 00:37:22.480
actually going to say modern people.
For some reason, then I would have
429
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:29.920
looked like a classic stone or modern
people. What moron I do? It
430
00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:31.440
was gonna get you. I had
to get you. So you know what,
431
00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:35.559
You're not doing that bad? Not
not that bad. Here we go,
432
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:40.719
you're ready, We're almost done.
Here, here we go. This
433
00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:46.519
is a spandel ballet, my friend, and the song is true? Yes,
434
00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:55.039
who man, put another one in
my pipe and let me burn it
435
00:37:55.079 --> 00:38:00.599
away? Baby? Oh, give
him one her points? My friends?
436
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:04.519
Oh, you want to hear a
quick story? Here right I went.
437
00:38:05.159 --> 00:38:09.639
I went to see this band.
My girlfriend at the time went to Shurehai
438
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:15.360
and Montabello and I had just graduated
from Montabella High and uh she was my
439
00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:21.440
Japanese girlfriend and I took her.
She's the one that gave you the change.
440
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:25.119
Oh. She is one reason why
I got the name of the Chang
441
00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:31.719
Wang Bang. Thank you Chang.
Now I took her to see this band,
442
00:38:31.800 --> 00:38:36.559
okay, and Uh, I have
to tell you. I went in
443
00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:39.440
my heavy metal guard. I went
with the you know, the Holy Levi's.
444
00:38:39.559 --> 00:38:44.000
I went with the dog Martin.
So I went with the white leather
445
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:50.239
jacket with black fringes, and you
went, all, I just like you
446
00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:52.679
were going to I have no shirt
underneath. What do you think about that?
447
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:58.760
So we went to this concert,
right and Uh. Two songs into
448
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:00.920
the show, I had to get
the hell out of the auditorium and I
449
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:04.920
needed to go to the bathroom and
take care of my head. I won't
450
00:39:04.960 --> 00:39:07.079
tell you what I was doing in
there, but I took care of my
451
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:10.400
head, and I have to tell
you once I came back out under the
452
00:39:10.480 --> 00:39:14.400
influence. I had a good time
about that show, and I had a
453
00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:17.800
lot of respect for that band.
That guy could sing just about anything.
454
00:39:19.079 --> 00:39:23.440
If you were to put like a
Justin Kimberlake, that guy kind of would
455
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:28.440
be like a modern day Justin Kimberlake
because he could sing so many different styles
456
00:39:28.440 --> 00:39:31.679
of music. So I was sold
with him. I didn't buy an album.
457
00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:34.920
But it was a great show.
Oh, come on, tell the
458
00:39:34.920 --> 00:39:37.159
truth. You know you have your
look at that you still play in your
459
00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:40.239
band? Yeah, I bought a
suit like his two. Yes he did.
460
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:45.159
All right, here we go.
So you got one hundred points.
461
00:39:45.199 --> 00:39:47.800
There, you got a total of
three hundred, four hundred points. Here
462
00:39:47.840 --> 00:40:05.239
we go. Boom oh oh,
yes, who are we talking about here?
463
00:40:05.320 --> 00:40:19.639
For fifty points? Named the band? Yes, okay, so you
464
00:40:19.639 --> 00:40:22.639
know the tune, you know the
melody. Now named the band? I
465
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:30.239
think this is don't you want me? Yes, you got the name of
466
00:40:30.239 --> 00:40:32.800
the song. So that's fifty points. Now with the name of the band
467
00:40:34.239 --> 00:40:40.599
that is, I'm gonna give you
three seconds here. Oh wait, wait,
468
00:40:40.679 --> 00:40:50.679
wait, wait two the one modern
time time that is wrong. That
469
00:40:50.800 --> 00:40:54.639
is wrong. It's the Human League. Oh I like that. That is
470
00:40:54.679 --> 00:41:00.400
wrong. That is wrong. Not
once, that's twice good, that's three
471
00:41:00.440 --> 00:41:06.039
times. So do the matter gave
you the wrong name? So you got
472
00:41:06.039 --> 00:41:09.920
four fifty points? You're doing okay, I guess you know kind of what
473
00:41:09.960 --> 00:41:16.400
I expected. But uh rocks.
Here we go. Now this next band,
474
00:41:17.519 --> 00:41:23.119
this next band is probably my favorite
of the new wave bands. Right
475
00:41:23.519 --> 00:41:50.679
here we go, stream Mode.
Yes, fifty points because you got the
476
00:41:50.760 --> 00:41:52.639
name of the band right away.
Now what is the name of the song?
477
00:42:05.239 --> 00:42:13.280
I'm not gonna let it go all
right, I'm gonna give you three
478
00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:19.719
seconds breath away. Oh no,
you should have just waited, you know
479
00:42:19.760 --> 00:42:23.320
what you should have said. I
don't know what's the name of this song?
480
00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:29.239
Either way, I lost. The
name of the song is Strange Love.
481
00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:31.920
That's how it That's how it started
off by saying the name of the
482
00:42:31.960 --> 00:42:36.840
song. But depeche Mode. Now, I bet you that's the favorite song
483
00:42:36.880 --> 00:42:42.079
of Doctor Love Weapon. Strange Love. Doctor Love Weapon adores this song.
484
00:42:42.679 --> 00:42:47.159
He loves it. Yeah. Um, Now, interesting fact about depeche Mode.
485
00:42:47.719 --> 00:42:52.599
If you go and see they still
fill up concerts everywhere in Europe.
486
00:42:52.679 --> 00:42:55.800
We're talking big stadiums. Wow.
Depeche Mode is one of the few bands
487
00:42:57.039 --> 00:43:00.800
that you will see that not only
sing exactly as they did back in the
488
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:07.679
eighties. I mean they they sing
exactly, there's no difference, but they
489
00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:14.320
also almost almost almost look exactly the
same. They have really taken the Yeah.
490
00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:17.159
Now, whether it be plastic surgery, I don't know what, but
491
00:43:17.199 --> 00:43:22.079
the guys look in very very good
condition. Not many can say that they
492
00:43:22.159 --> 00:43:31.239
noticed the guy with a sixth pack
either I got added what? All right?
493
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:35.519
Here we go, second to last. You are never going to get
494
00:43:35.679 --> 00:43:37.840
this one. Okay, what do
you got? What do you got?
495
00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:49.880
What do you got? Let me
see, I'll give your hands. It
496
00:43:49.920 --> 00:43:59.760
was in your chamberings. No,
all right, let it go, let
497
00:43:59.760 --> 00:44:07.159
it go, let me hear,
let me hear it. Oh is this
498
00:44:07.360 --> 00:44:13.119
Thomas Dolby? Oh my god,
you're you're killing me here, you're killing
499
00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:16.440
me here. Now, I'm gonna
give you a break. All right.
500
00:44:17.360 --> 00:44:22.840
I'm gonna let you hear the chorus
line, and that's the only break you
501
00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:27.800
get. All right, So once
you listen to it, I'm gonna I'm
502
00:44:27.840 --> 00:44:40.239
gonna just pretend like you never guessed
at anything. Here we go. It
503
00:44:40.679 --> 00:44:45.800
is the one and only got to
be dance hall days. No, No,
504
00:44:46.079 --> 00:44:52.840
it's everybody have fun tonight. Okay, all right, so you got
505
00:44:52.840 --> 00:44:57.559
fifty points there. Jeez, it
was one of your changreas. Wasn't this
506
00:44:57.599 --> 00:45:01.519
one of those secret concerts you went
to? No, I was angry because
507
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:07.800
they didn't use my name, they
didn't go with the chang chong. But
508
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:12.320
I definitely needed to hear his voice
so I could know. Yeah, But
509
00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:15.599
like, I'm not too familiar with
some of the song titles. But you
510
00:45:15.679 --> 00:45:20.840
give the chang a good vocal tickle
in the ear, and uh, I'll
511
00:45:20.840 --> 00:45:23.159
come up with who that guy is? Not too bad? I told you,
512
00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:28.559
I told you a thousand times.
I told you a million times.
513
00:45:28.800 --> 00:45:35.480
A pity, A pity? Oh
who know the music rule? And I'm
514
00:45:35.480 --> 00:45:39.199
gonna let you hear the last one. But see, Wang Chung was one
515
00:45:39.199 --> 00:45:44.159
of those one of those bands that
even though they had a couple of big
516
00:45:44.239 --> 00:45:47.320
hits that were on the radio,
Yeah, and that's all day one of
517
00:45:47.400 --> 00:45:51.719
them. That's right. And those
are probably the only songs I ever got
518
00:45:51.719 --> 00:45:53.280
to know from them, But that
was good enough for me. I love
519
00:45:53.320 --> 00:46:00.440
those songs. So here is for
your listening pleasure, the last song of
520
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:10.079
the evening. Oh yes, all
right, can you tell before we start
521
00:46:10.519 --> 00:46:15.599
with the entire song, what is
the name of the bass for fears?
522
00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:22.039
My brother's fifty points right there now? The name of the song everybody wants
523
00:46:22.119 --> 00:46:30.800
to be No, fix it,
fix it, fix it? Almost everybody,
524
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:45.320
You are right, everybody wants to
ah. It used to be the
525
00:46:45.360 --> 00:46:49.440
song that Dennis Miller used to use
on his top. Yeah, yeah,
526
00:46:49.480 --> 00:46:53.920
everybody wants to be Oh no,
I'm gonna lose fifty points. I want
527
00:46:53.920 --> 00:47:01.639
pricking word unbelievable. Yes, you
got say you gotta before he sang it.
528
00:47:01.800 --> 00:47:06.519
So you made one points, totally
new up to about six hundred and
529
00:47:06.519 --> 00:47:09.519
fifty points, give or take another
one hundred hundred and fifty. But you,
530
00:47:09.639 --> 00:47:15.119
my friend, got six out of
ten. Right. Let me ask
531
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:20.639
you one question before we end the
show tonight. If you were given the
532
00:47:20.719 --> 00:47:25.719
chance to name a song that would
identify with the eighties as a decade itself,
533
00:47:27.719 --> 00:47:31.599
but you can only name one song. Let's say you were describing the
534
00:47:31.639 --> 00:47:37.039
eighties to some future generation in one
hundred years from our a thousand years from
535
00:47:37.039 --> 00:47:43.159
now, and you had only one
song, and you tell him this best
536
00:47:43.199 --> 00:47:49.280
describes the sound of the eighties.
This encapsulates the sound of the eighties in
537
00:47:49.440 --> 00:47:52.239
one song. So if you want
to know what the eighties were like,
538
00:47:52.880 --> 00:47:58.559
listen to this song. This is
eighties. What would that song be that
539
00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:01.159
would not be one of my medal
I'd do my Love, my Metal,
540
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:07.039
but I'd have to go with the
probably the B fifty twos, Planet Claire.
541
00:48:07.440 --> 00:48:12.480
I don't think there's any other song
that has got the whole can of
542
00:48:12.840 --> 00:48:17.760
soup and vegetables and meat that would
describe the eighties, like that song right
543
00:48:17.800 --> 00:48:22.679
there, So the B fifty twos, let me first tell you all right,
544
00:48:22.800 --> 00:48:27.079
Planet Claire brother, Planet Claire first
all the way. Yeah, so
545
00:48:27.199 --> 00:48:30.320
let me tell you so, my
relationship with the B fifty twos is one
546
00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:38.880
of dislike and almost of hate back
in the eighties because radio stations think,
547
00:48:39.079 --> 00:48:45.480
wow, these bands only play one
of two songs, right usually, and
548
00:48:45.559 --> 00:48:54.079
it was either what was it rock
Lobster or what was it the love Shack
549
00:48:54.280 --> 00:49:00.320
love Shack so and they both love
Shack used to come on literally used to
550
00:49:00.360 --> 00:49:06.199
want to vomit. I would change
it. Now you're thinking about this song
551
00:49:07.119 --> 00:49:21.880
right so now to you, by
the way, their hairstyles were something very
552
00:49:21.920 --> 00:49:27.119
interesting. Yea, So to you
this in your mind, this is what
553
00:49:27.280 --> 00:49:31.039
encapsulates the eighties. You would tell
somebody in a thousand years, you listen
554
00:49:31.079 --> 00:49:34.280
to this song, you get an
idea of what the eighties were all about.
555
00:49:35.840 --> 00:49:38.159
Yeah, exactly, Because if I
came up with a song from my
556
00:49:38.199 --> 00:49:43.480
metalist, they may get lost in
the seventies. Because the band may have
557
00:49:44.360 --> 00:49:49.400
originated in the seventies, maybe the
band carried on into the nineties. So
558
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:52.719
I thought this to me, would
be the best way to tell somebody,
559
00:49:52.760 --> 00:49:55.800
Hey, you want to know what
life was in the eighties, You want
560
00:49:55.800 --> 00:50:04.880
to know what type of music groups
that we had. You gotta listen to
561
00:50:04.960 --> 00:50:07.639
the B fifty twos and you got
to put Planet clar on. I mean
562
00:50:07.679 --> 00:50:12.159
this song, it's eerie, it's
hard rocking, it's got dance to it.
563
00:50:12.800 --> 00:50:15.079
The vocals in it, with all
of them, are fricking incredible.
564
00:50:15.880 --> 00:50:19.800
It sums it up. The way
that they look, the way they dressed.
565
00:50:20.239 --> 00:50:24.000
Dude, this is the band.
They should be the poster child of
566
00:50:24.159 --> 00:50:30.639
rock bands in the eighties on our
page. Definitely weird and definitely one of
567
00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:36.119
the songs that I probably never wanted
to listen to, because, like I
568
00:50:36.119 --> 00:50:38.039
said, when the B fifty twos
would come on, and when I would
569
00:50:38.039 --> 00:50:43.199
see their video on MTV, I
would just I would change it. I
570
00:50:43.199 --> 00:50:51.800
would rather listen to Wally George back
then PA Radio in the eighties than listen
571
00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:54.039
to the B fifty twos. That's
how much I used to hate them.
572
00:50:54.079 --> 00:50:59.360
Now. Back in the eighties,
I remember cruising up and down with your
573
00:50:59.400 --> 00:51:01.039
boulevard right because you know where I'm
from. You know a lot of our
574
00:51:01.039 --> 00:51:05.159
listeners may know where I'm from.
I'm from you know, I'm from the
575
00:51:05.159 --> 00:51:07.960
hood. I'm from Little Sun and
Delies. So we would cruise with your
576
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:12.360
boulevard during the eighties, right and
uh, I mean you had the homies,
577
00:51:12.400 --> 00:51:15.360
You're the home girls. You had
the disco chicks, a disco dudes.
578
00:51:15.400 --> 00:51:19.800
You had your kind of rockabilly dudes. You had us rock and rollers.
579
00:51:20.199 --> 00:51:22.599
And I remember me and my boys, we'd be cruising up with your
580
00:51:22.639 --> 00:51:25.559
boulevard and uh, when we roll
up, you know, you kind of
581
00:51:27.639 --> 00:51:30.440
hone in on the on the cars
full of chicks or if you see a
582
00:51:30.440 --> 00:51:32.719
group of chicks hanging out in the
street. I remember I would always blast
583
00:51:32.760 --> 00:51:37.239
this song, you know what I
mean, just as that catcher, you
584
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:39.280
know what I mean, Because you
hear this song coming out loud, everywhere
585
00:51:39.360 --> 00:51:43.360
turned their heads. Well that's a
crazy song. Who's playing it? Boom
586
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:45.400
a long haired guy. So it
kind of answers to the nostalgia, you
587
00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:49.760
know what I mean. So this
was always that was always a good song
588
00:51:49.840 --> 00:51:53.239
that I enjoyed, the cruising up
and down with your boulevard and then cranking
589
00:51:53.239 --> 00:51:58.400
it to the to the maximum and
breaking the knob off just to get that
590
00:51:58.519 --> 00:52:00.920
attention. A great band, I
thought, and I thought both chicks were
591
00:52:00.920 --> 00:52:04.639
hot. What are you gonna do
about that? Very interesting to know that.
592
00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:08.440
Now, if you were to ask
me and me going a thousand years
593
00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:13.760
into the future and try to explain
to somebody what song encapsulates the eighties,
594
00:52:14.920 --> 00:52:30.719
I would have no choice than to
tell you it's this song right here now.
595
00:52:30.800 --> 00:52:37.320
To me, this song brings everything
together of what the eighties and kids
596
00:52:37.599 --> 00:52:45.960
and teens and the culture brought us
in the eighties. This particular song I'll
597
00:52:45.960 --> 00:52:49.000
never forget because one of my favorite
movies back then in the eighties was The
598
00:52:49.000 --> 00:52:53.039
Breakfast Club and this this or the
movie. I don't know if the movie
599
00:52:53.079 --> 00:52:57.039
made this song even more of what
it was, but the song came out
600
00:52:57.039 --> 00:53:00.760
of the pack and it just blew
up because you could hear this song everywhere.
601
00:53:01.800 --> 00:53:07.039
I think that movie made a lot
more money for this song, I
602
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:10.400
really do, and that this is
a perfect song to play because it does
603
00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:14.400
embody everything about the eighties, and
the first thing you think about is that
604
00:53:14.519 --> 00:53:17.039
movie. Yeah, you know,
here's another song that I would have went
605
00:53:17.079 --> 00:53:22.760
with. My Number two would have
been by the Cars Moving in Stereo because
606
00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:28.440
you hear that song, and you
automatically remember Ridgemond High, you remember that
607
00:53:28.480 --> 00:53:34.400
movie, so you know, very
two very iconic songs. I think that
608
00:53:34.840 --> 00:53:38.880
both songs the movie made them more
money than when they both put those songs
609
00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:43.400
out on the albums. And both
bands are great bands in their own right.
610
00:53:43.840 --> 00:53:46.199
But I think the movie how both
of those songs, you know,
611
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:50.719
get sold out a little bit more? I would have to say yeah.
612
00:53:50.840 --> 00:53:55.239
And lastly, if you ask today
twenty twenty, what you think, what
613
00:53:55.440 --> 00:54:00.320
song you think encapsulated the eighties?
Believe it or not, Geico, Geico
614
00:54:00.480 --> 00:54:06.920
the insurance commercial has been making this
song go viral. I mean it's a
615
00:54:07.000 --> 00:54:10.800
huge song and uh, you know
it's not a song that I would have
616
00:54:10.800 --> 00:54:16.039
thought would have been, you know, one of our choices. But even
617
00:54:16.039 --> 00:54:31.079
the young kids know this song now. Oh yes, yes, you know
618
00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:36.400
you've seen that commercial, right,
Yes I have. Now. This song
619
00:54:37.480 --> 00:54:39.920
came out in my all time favorite
year of the eighties. So if I
620
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:43.960
could go back in the time machine, I would probably go back to nineteen
621
00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:50.679
eighty seven. Great song, A
great song by White Snake Coverdale Man a
622
00:54:50.920 --> 00:54:54.320
very interesting individual. This was the
White Snake was a great band. No,
623
00:54:54.440 --> 00:54:59.639
I won't say great. They were
a good band. Coverdale evolved from
624
00:54:59.679 --> 00:55:02.679
so many great metal bands, you
know, but he was always a pill
625
00:55:02.760 --> 00:55:07.360
And when somebody greater than he had
left that, I give him a lot
626
00:55:07.400 --> 00:55:14.159
of credit. This song has been
re edited and restructured. I'd say probably
627
00:55:14.239 --> 00:55:17.280
once every decade. There's a newer
version. Now I think that's the one
628
00:55:17.320 --> 00:55:22.000
that's on the on the commercial to
where it's uh, a little bit more
629
00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:28.840
poppy, a little bit more carried
out than the original version. But I
630
00:55:28.920 --> 00:55:31.320
gotta tell you, man, this
guy, if you wanted to be a
631
00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:36.039
sexy rocker, you wanted to look
like David Coverdale. Yeah. And then
632
00:55:36.840 --> 00:55:40.679
he married and and remember remember the
model he used to make the video he
633
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:45.960
married, Yet the actors married Tony
Katag that's right, and Tony Kittain.
634
00:55:46.599 --> 00:55:50.440
If you don't remember, if you
haven't seen this video, but you have
635
00:55:50.519 --> 00:55:53.760
seen the movie with Tom Hanks Bachelor
Park. Yes, she was he was
636
00:55:53.800 --> 00:55:59.079
in that that. She was Tom
hanks future wife in the in the movie
637
00:55:59.159 --> 00:56:02.639
right now. The sad story with
her is like she got hooked on drugs
638
00:56:02.639 --> 00:56:07.760
and alcohol and she builds a very
have you seen her face? My kids,
639
00:56:07.079 --> 00:56:10.719
My kids were watching Bachelor Party a
couple of weeks ago. And then
640
00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:15.920
my younger son says, you know, because my younger son thought she was
641
00:56:15.960 --> 00:56:19.159
really really cute in the movie.
And he goes, Dad, I mean,
642
00:56:19.159 --> 00:56:22.039
he goes, I got some really
bad news, and he shows me
643
00:56:22.199 --> 00:56:27.599
a picture of Tany in the year
twenty twenty. Now she destroyed her face
644
00:56:27.639 --> 00:56:31.480
with all this plastic surgeries. She
looks like she opened her her face and
645
00:56:31.480 --> 00:56:35.639
a bag of bees and they stung
the hell out of her. I mean,
646
00:56:35.719 --> 00:56:38.119
you know, she was good.
Those new killer hornets, those new
647
00:56:38.159 --> 00:56:44.480
wasp hornets from Africa. You know, it's just something that it's very sad
648
00:56:44.519 --> 00:56:49.239
to see. But this is the
song that Geko is making out to be
649
00:56:49.360 --> 00:56:52.519
the song of the eighties. Now, Yes, geicole Man, I'll tell
650
00:56:52.559 --> 00:56:55.119
you you know what what has always
intrigued me, Bro, And sometimes it
651
00:56:55.159 --> 00:57:00.760
gets me really angry because I don't
I don't ever want to come to the
652
00:57:00.840 --> 00:57:05.599
reality of I'm getting old, although
I am coming to that reality because hell
653
00:57:05.719 --> 00:57:07.960
man, I'm a grandpa already.
You would have thought the check would have
654
00:57:07.960 --> 00:57:13.559
been a grandfather. But when you
start seeing hearing some of these songs,
655
00:57:13.599 --> 00:57:15.960
Bro, that that we grew up
in our generation with and they're on a
656
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:21.599
commercial, you kind of smile because
that song makes you think of the past.
657
00:57:21.639 --> 00:57:23.239
And then when you when you come
back to reality, you're like,
658
00:57:24.119 --> 00:57:28.239
well, damn, when I'm old, I don't want to what I have
659
00:57:28.280 --> 00:57:30.159
to you know, what I have
to think about ed and I have to
660
00:57:30.199 --> 00:57:37.360
think about all these prices of vans
and cars and Salis. But I'm hearing
661
00:57:37.440 --> 00:57:40.559
great music. You know you said
you hit, You said something so important,
662
00:57:40.559 --> 00:57:45.480
because lately I've been thinking, um, you know what. We've been
663
00:57:45.480 --> 00:57:52.039
doing the show now for the tenth
straight week, and we've enjoyed reminiscing and
664
00:57:52.079 --> 00:57:55.199
the nostalgia and just the memories that
go along with it. But then you
665
00:57:55.199 --> 00:58:00.719
start to think, man, because
you start losing friends or you start losing
666
00:58:00.480 --> 00:58:06.159
you know, celebrities, celebrities from
back. Then they start going in different
667
00:58:06.159 --> 00:58:08.960
ways and you start going, oh, my gosh, I'm right, you
668
00:58:09.000 --> 00:58:14.159
know. I don't want to admit
it. And it's something that's deep down
669
00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:19.440
we and it's it's not that you're
afraid of the afterlife. It's not even
670
00:58:19.559 --> 00:58:22.880
that. It's just the fact that
you know that you're not there anymore,
671
00:58:22.960 --> 00:58:29.119
that the youth is gone. Yes, And I was talking to to my
672
00:58:29.199 --> 00:58:35.440
kids, and I was thinking,
she's how how this sucks. How that
673
00:58:35.599 --> 00:58:40.119
childhood lasts only ten ten to twelve
years child right, right? Your teens
674
00:58:40.119 --> 00:58:46.039
only last from thirteen to nineteen,
and they're done about ten years. Bro.
675
00:58:46.199 --> 00:58:50.880
The rest of the time, we're
talking twenty thirty, forty fifty sixty
676
00:58:50.960 --> 00:58:55.920
years as an adult, and it's
such a little time that we get to
677
00:58:55.960 --> 00:59:01.480
spend having fun in that, in
that with with our youth, with the
678
00:59:01.639 --> 00:59:07.519
vigor and with the strength, yes, and with the ability to to not
679
00:59:07.599 --> 00:59:09.719
get as hurt as we you know, we get hurt now at our age,
680
00:59:09.960 --> 00:59:15.519
and you just either you don't recover
or you don't recover completely right at
681
00:59:15.519 --> 00:59:21.800
all? Right, and uh and
and sometimes I think, man, that's
682
00:59:21.800 --> 00:59:24.239
what I miss most. You know, Yeah, you missed the nostalgia,
683
00:59:24.320 --> 00:59:29.079
Yeah you missed those memories. But
in reality, what we're really saying is
684
00:59:29.119 --> 00:59:32.960
I miss how I was. I
miss how I felt. I miss the
685
00:59:34.000 --> 00:59:37.880
fact that I could do so many
things and not feel the way I feel
686
00:59:37.920 --> 00:59:44.519
now when I try to sort of
do something similar. I I agree with
687
00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:50.559
you, brother, and I think
I think that's what's gonna make or break
688
00:59:51.440 --> 00:59:55.719
our children, for that wisdom that
we have because it's a knowledge broll you.
689
00:59:55.719 --> 01:00:00.320
You have to be very fortunate brother, if you realize you're more reality
690
01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:05.159
and you can look back at life
and say, well, I wouldn't change
691
01:00:05.199 --> 01:00:08.559
a thing because it may be who
I am, which sometimes is the better.
692
01:00:09.559 --> 01:00:15.000
You know, what my father always
told me growing up is the day
693
01:00:15.039 --> 01:00:19.119
you forget who you are and where
you come from, is the day that
694
01:00:19.199 --> 01:00:23.000
you don't know who you are.
And he always used to tell me that
695
01:00:24.320 --> 01:00:30.039
every decade of my life, I'm
going to have new friends and new enemies.
696
01:00:30.599 --> 01:00:36.400
And at the end of my life
you can count within two hands who
697
01:00:36.440 --> 01:00:40.320
your real loved ones and who your
real friends are. And and I've always
698
01:00:40.360 --> 01:00:45.960
held that to heart. And the
other thing I've learned that every experience that
699
01:00:45.000 --> 01:00:51.199
I've endeavored in both positive and negative, the end result was the one thing
700
01:00:51.280 --> 01:00:57.679
that money cannot buy, the one
thing that you cannot lose or leave behind
701
01:00:57.840 --> 01:01:00.960
unless it's in your loved ones,
is your with them. And I think
702
01:01:01.960 --> 01:01:07.440
as me and you do this show, uh and and I hope we bring
703
01:01:07.599 --> 01:01:15.360
as many good memories and laughs and
nostalgic ideas and hopes and smiles the same
704
01:01:15.400 --> 01:01:16.960
way we bring to each other as
we sit here, but we bring it
705
01:01:17.000 --> 01:01:23.280
to our listeners. You know,
you have to take to a contact.
706
01:01:23.320 --> 01:01:28.840
We're all on the same boat.
Mortality is in our hands. And I'm
707
01:01:28.840 --> 01:01:32.599
sure all of us in this generation, all of us listen, all of
708
01:01:32.599 --> 01:01:39.519
our listeners, both you and I. We're not young to not know that.
709
01:01:39.559 --> 01:01:45.440
We have all suffered losses. We've
lost family members, we've lost good
710
01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:52.599
friends, cousins, work associates,
and and and it's it's intriguing how you
711
01:01:52.679 --> 01:01:57.679
said, we have so much little
time to spend in our youth to make
712
01:01:57.760 --> 01:02:04.800
those mistakes correct. And then we
become adults to a sense, and we
713
01:02:04.840 --> 01:02:08.960
are forced into the real world.
And there's so many occasions, my brother,
714
01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:15.719
where people don't come out of the
other side normal with all their faculties,
715
01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:20.519
with the wisdom, with knowledge,
with knowing what not to do or
716
01:02:20.559 --> 01:02:25.119
what to do. And we see
that with our own generation now. And
717
01:02:27.320 --> 01:02:30.679
some people never grow up because you
don't have enough time to grow up.
718
01:02:31.320 --> 01:02:37.239
Some people never grow up because they
play the victim and they feel life was
719
01:02:37.280 --> 01:02:40.000
a little bit too hard. So
it's everybody else's fault, father's time's fault.
720
01:02:40.000 --> 01:02:45.880
But it's all about that wisdom you
get within those growing years. Yeah,
721
01:02:45.920 --> 01:02:51.599
the life experience. And I know
a lot of people who just refuse
722
01:02:51.760 --> 01:02:54.559
to grow up because they don't want
to. They don't want they feel that
723
01:02:54.719 --> 01:03:00.519
time approaching, and you just don't
want that to come to pass because when
724
01:03:00.559 --> 01:03:04.039
you're young, you know, you
think that where we're at now, when
725
01:03:04.079 --> 01:03:07.400
you're young, when when we were
back in the eighties, we thought of
726
01:03:07.480 --> 01:03:09.960
people our age. Now, we
thought of that being so far away.
727
01:03:10.039 --> 01:03:15.199
Now that it's here, you you
really wish you were back. It's almost
728
01:03:15.239 --> 01:03:20.920
as if we feel we didn't enjoy
enough, no matter how much fun we
729
01:03:20.920 --> 01:03:23.800
had or you know, whatever it
is that happened in our life, it's
730
01:03:23.840 --> 01:03:28.880
almost as we didn't get enough time. I want to end the show tonight,
731
01:03:29.639 --> 01:03:32.159
thanking you guys for being a part
of Back to the Eighties Radio here.
732
01:03:32.639 --> 01:03:37.400
Thanking you guys for letting Tuscano and
Chang be or have a little part
733
01:03:37.480 --> 01:03:43.400
in your daily life. Taken into
consideration that our lives are not you know,
734
01:03:43.400 --> 01:03:45.800
we're not here forever. We don't
last forever. But the little time
735
01:03:45.800 --> 01:03:52.119
that we can spend together reminiscing thinking
about those experiences just further on our wisdom
736
01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:57.159
to pass along to our children.
If you don't have any children, you
737
01:03:57.239 --> 01:04:02.000
pass it along to whoever you can. But the point is whatever it is
738
01:04:02.039 --> 01:04:06.519
that you went through, whether good
or bad, back then let that serve
739
01:04:06.639 --> 01:04:13.880
as good for future generations. In
anyone on behalf of Tiscano myself, I
740
01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:18.039
can ask you to just be safe
out there, treat this time with care,
741
01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:25.280
enjoy your time that you have here
right now, and over all things.
742
01:04:25.719 --> 01:04:29.599
Hey, just like me, be
thankful that you took part and you
743
01:04:29.760 --> 01:04:34.440
could live in a generation such as
the eighties. So be good to yourselves,
744
01:04:35.119 --> 01:04:40.760
love one another, and we'll see
you next Friday. Thanks for being
745
01:04:40.760 --> 01:04:45.719
with us. Beautiful words. Brother, I love when you get as deep
746
01:04:45.760 --> 01:04:48.039
as you do. You know we
both like to have a good time here.
747
01:04:48.039 --> 01:04:51.880
We're all about creating the lab,
making people smile, but we do
748
01:04:51.960 --> 01:04:56.679
have a very serious side. And
everybody out there, you know, we
749
01:04:56.840 --> 01:05:00.480
know that life is not the same. We don't have it the answers.
750
01:05:00.519 --> 01:05:03.519
We don't know when life will be
the same. But remember you have only
751
01:05:03.760 --> 01:05:06.840
given one life. Live it to
the best that you can. You go
752
01:05:06.880 --> 01:05:12.159
out there and stand for somebody that
can't stand for themselves. I want you
753
01:05:12.199 --> 01:05:17.000
to remember to stay lifted and gifted
and always remember to watch out for your
754
01:05:17.039 --> 01:05:21.440
neighbor. We are all we have. We are one race, the human
755
01:05:21.519 --> 01:05:27.639
race. So until next Friday,
from the legend in my own mind,
756
01:05:28.239 --> 01:05:31.000
the chang join me on, Changsters, Gangsters if you want to hear some
757
01:05:31.039 --> 01:05:36.199
great music. And I've always got
something positive to say. We are to
758
01:05:36.400 --> 01:05:43.320
Skando and Chang. Our purpose here
is to enlighten and entertain you. So
759
01:05:43.440 --> 01:05:49.760
till next Friday, I wish you
aribaci an adios aratovatos, and to all
