The Top 10 Songs from 1984

WEBVTT

1
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:24.600
What about one point playing on this, ladies and gentlemen, is the one

2
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:28.960
and only back to the eighties radio. This is Toscano and Chang bringing you

3
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:32.719
the nostalgia from the memories that we
forgot we had. We're also going to

4
00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:37.079
be introducing the eighties to this generation, and we encourage you to do the

5
00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:41.640
same thing every single day. Today
we are going to be talking about nineteen

6
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:46.840
eighty four, So before we talk
about what happened why we skipped over nineteen

7
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:48.960
eighty three, We're gonna let you
know that. But in the meantime,

8
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:55.520
some people have seen my co host
on top of Randy's Donuts, dressed in

9
00:00:55.679 --> 00:01:00.359
white spandex and a two two with
a sign that says will sing always in

10
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:04.480
songs for donuts? Yes I will. But here add back to the eighties.

11
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:11.079
We only know him as a wondrous
Chang. All rise cording session,

12
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:17.280
Your honorable Chang takes the bench,
my number one bailiff, Toscano. Now

13
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:25.079
tonight's case rest solely solely on the
case the case fact in point, Yes,

14
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:30.920
Toscano, weird are talking about nineteen
eighty four's top one hundred billboards.

15
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:38.280
Ha ha ha it that Toscano and
I dove in head first I was victorious.

16
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:42.359
That would be number four. This
that I'm victorious. Thank you very

17
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:45.959
much. You know it's funny.
I'll let you continue with your delusions.

18
00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:49.640
I can't hear you. I believe
I know you can because it's the age.

19
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.359
For those of you who don't know, we are accepting AARP cards for

20
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.480
Chang so he can get a new
hearing aid. His last one took a

21
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.680
dump like in nineteen eighty four.

69
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:36.800
No, this is green jello,
the one that nobody eats, nobody

70
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:42.000
likes. Two feet of jello.
You're gonna be dunked in there with the

71
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:46.120
white spandex and the two two and
holding the sign. I will sing poison

00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:51.000
songs for Randy's Donuts. No,
no, yes, for Randy's Donuts.

73
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:55.399
But I won't sing poison songs.
It's gotta be a poison See. Then

74
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:58.879
I want I want cherry jellos.
Then if you're going to put me through

75
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:04.519
hell to singing some wretched songs by
a week Whosseye band for donuts? Now,

76
00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:10.959
you know, do you do realize
that you are offending many poisoned fans,

77
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:17.160
including including my friend, your partner
in radio. You I feel deeply

78
00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:25.360
offended. I feel twenty twenty two
offended. You know that's offensive? Oh,

79
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:29.040
I you know what? You You're
right. Let me apologize to all

80
00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:32.000
you weak poisoned bands and my partner
in crime, who is also they fell

81
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:40.199
a weak poison fan. My head
bands are not attached to my hair such

82
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:46.639
as they ever. So sexy Bret
Michaels. Please let's move on, all

83
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:50.959
right, So tonight, let's quickly
glance over Billboard's top ten list of nineteen

84
00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:56.040
eighty four's greatest songs. I'm gonna
let you know from right now, Chang,

85
00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:01.120
we have to let everybody know that
our list is better than billboards picks.

86
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:05.000
I mean, we already saw the
list and their pick suck. Not

87
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:07.000
all of them, but most of
them. Not all of them, most

88
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:16.920
of them, ninety of them.
All right, so let's do this kicking

89
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.879
it off. This is now We're
gonna read Billboard's top ten list, starting

90
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:26.279
with number ten. I have to
let you guys know that this following band,

91
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:31.039
this English band featured on the groups
nineteen eighty three album Colored by Numbers,

92
00:08:31.039 --> 00:08:37.039
is Chang's second most favorite band in
the world. Chang actually dressed like

93
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:43.200
this frontman for Halloween in nineteen eighty
three, nineteen eighty four and every other

94
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:52.679
Halloween after that. As a matter
of fact, Chang Chang and Culture Clubs

95
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:58.559
one and only boy George go to
the exact same hairstylist, Rod Steele.

96
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.960
Now, I do enjoy the harmonica
on this song, but I don't know

97
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:07.639
what was worse this song or his
braids. So I'll just have to give

98
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:13.480
it a naysayer for the Chang.
Not one of my favorite groups. Uh,

99
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:20.000
not one of my favorite types of
music. But I'd buy the guy

100
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:22.720
a drink, okay, just to
tell him to go sit somewhere else.

101
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.840
Yeah, he'd put a couple of
roofies in yours, all right, Although

102
00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:30.639
I don't know if you're his type, but anyway, Oh, I'm not.

103
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:35.120
Well. Let's go on to number
nine for Billboard's Top ten and nineteen

104
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.519
nineteen eighty four songs. He's a
song written by Ray Parker Junior as a

105
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:43.879
theme to the film of the same
name. And I'm talking about none none

106
00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:50.559
other than Ghostbusters. Who are you
Gonna Call? Now? I gotta tell

107
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.799
you I love this movie. Snl
all over a brother right now, Ray

108
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.559
Parker Junior. He was a smooth
cat, you know what I mean.

109
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:03.480
I dug all his stuff from the
seventies. But they couldn't have gotten a

110
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:09.879
better looking guy to sing this song. Now. Ray Parker Junior resembles one

111
00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:13.519
of the way in Brothers. Yes
he does. He like the oldest one.

112
00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.639
He could be the dad, Yes, yes he could. You know

113
00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:20.000
the song. The song was nominated
at the fifty seventh Academy Awards for Best

114
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:26.279
Original Song, but of course it
lost to Stevie Wonders. I just called

115
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:28.080
to say I love you. Yes, You're right, and what a great

116
00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:33.840
song. And one more bit of
trivia for you. A lawsuit regarding Parker's

117
00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:41.039
plagiarism of Huey Lewis's I Want a
New Drug resulted in Lewis receiving a settlement.

118
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:48.919
So, for some reason, mister
Ray Parker Junior took something that belonged

119
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.919
to Huey Lewis in the news and
to make the song. So if you

120
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:58.960
take away the lyrics of Ghostbusters,
you may kind of maybe feel like you're

121
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:03.519
hearing I Want a New Drug.
Now that that's almost like backward masking.

122
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:07.600
But apparently this song didn't matter in
the UK. And you know what I'm

123
00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:15.159
talking about, because this song stayed
at number two for three weeks in the

124
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:20.639
U K on the Singles Chart,
number eight, number eight. The single

125
00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:26.279
by Yes from the album nine zero
one two five is the song called Owner

126
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:31.759
of a Lonely Heart. Released in
October nineteen eighty three. It was the

127
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:37.720
album's first single and it was an
immediate commercial success. I will always say

128
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:43.559
the only great album Yes had was
Fragile Yes jumping into number seven with Lionel

129
00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:48.399
Ritchie's Hello, released in eighty four, of course, and it reached number

130
00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:52.480
one on three different Billboard Music charts, the Pop chart, the R and

131
00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:58.519
B Chart, and the Adult Contemporary
chart. Now you also know this was

132
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.279
off the album Cancelo Death, correct, my brother? Yet, what did

133
00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:05.480
I thought that album was? Okay? Now, it's funny because they always

134
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:11.039
had ranked this in the R and
B chart as an adult contemporary, which

135
00:12:11.120 --> 00:12:15.720
I didn't understand. Some of the
chart back in the eighties, especially the

136
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.960
R and B chart, because I
grew up old school R and B was

137
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:26.360
kind of a little bit motown Gladys
Knight and the Pips. But in the

138
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:31.279
eighties it kind of swung all over. Sometimes they even said that Michael Jackson

139
00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:35.960
was on the R and B chart. So I think the R and B

140
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:39.840
chart back then kind of lost its
way, and they went ahead and they

141
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:45.919
put this song a follow commador in
the adult contemporary. I think it's fenning

142
00:12:45.960 --> 00:12:52.120
because probably everything Chicago put out with
Peter Satera. Oh there you go there

143
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:56.759
again. Well wait a minute,
there you going. He's not even on

144
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:00.600
the on the list, and and
and then you have to talk bad about

145
00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:07.360
Peter Satera. You like Chicago looks
the lady and gentlemen of the jury,

146
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:13.759
allow me on our next show to
bring so many burdens of proof that this

147
00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:18.080
man is wackle because he just can't
accept the fact that Peter Seta is a

148
00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:24.000
genius and a great singer and bass
player. Bailif Tisconnell, you are overall

149
00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:31.240
hold you in contempt on my court
going on to number six. Now number

150
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:37.679
six, of course you can't deny
this band Chang that was great Eddie van

151
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:45.240
Halen's band. The song is Jump. Fantastic song, especially if you've got

152
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:48.519
a convertible and you're driving by the
beach and you're hearing Jump. I mean

153
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:54.720
it's over, it's over. You
are just rocking. You're just reminded of

154
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:58.360
how quickly David lee Roth jumped out
of van Halen they started sucking with Sammy

155
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:03.600
Hagar, and how his career kind
of sucked. That's what you jumped into,

156
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:09.519
Nook. That's a different story.
That's a different story. This is

157
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:15.440
the album where I think van Halen
jumped into manure. This was a great

158
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:18.320
album. What are you talking about? Anyway? It may or may not

159
00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:24.120
be on somebody's list. Okay,
well let's take it to number five quickly.

160
00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:33.480
Oh number five. I mean it's
from the album from the motion picture

161
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:39.120
soundtrack Against All Odds, none other
than the single by Phil Collins, Against

162
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:43.960
All Odds Take a Look at Me
Now. Amazing song, what I mean,

163
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:48.960
great lyrics. It was a musical
masterpiece by Phil Collins. You know

164
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:52.559
what, Yes, it was.
I think it was kind of a song

165
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:56.519
and a letter of losing somebody.
You got to give it up for Phil

166
00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:03.399
Collins. He was very diverse from
being Phil Collins being with Genesis, extraordinary

167
00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:07.600
drummer and a great singer. Now
some people may know that Genesis was fronted

168
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:13.679
not originally by mister Phil Collins.
No, no, you knew that,

169
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:18.720
didn't you, of course, mister
by mister Peter Gabriel. But Phil Collins

170
00:15:18.759 --> 00:15:22.039
took the realm when Peter Gabriel left
on a bitter note. Now on this

171
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:26.960
note, Phil Collins ab a cab. I mean, who couldn't like Phil

172
00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:31.600
Collins? This song always made me
cry, so I couldn't sit through it.

173
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:35.720
It's like I didn't want to sit
and pay five dollars to sit through

174
00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:41.399
that crappy movie. Moving on to
number four. Hater Number four is a

175
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:46.039
song by the one and only American
guitarist singer songwriter. His early songs were

176
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:50.559
recorded with a nitty gritty dirt band
in in nineteen seventy, which led to

177
00:15:50.679 --> 00:16:02.480
seven albums recorded as Kenny Loggins with
Footloose Loggins always reminded me of that eighth

178
00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:06.360
grade school teacher that some people had, Yeah, kind of, I gotta

179
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:08.679
tell you that was a crip.
You know, Kevin Bacon dancing, I

180
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:14.120
don't think so, so I didn't
see the movie, and every time I

181
00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:18.039
heard the song, I wanted to
kick the speakers out of the car.

182
00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:22.720
Now the song was okay, I
gotta turn Louise, Yeah, the song,

183
00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:25.879
the song was okay for me.
It wasn't a great great song.

184
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:29.120
I like it more now than I
did then, just because it's from the

185
00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:33.639
eighties. However, I didn't really
care for the movie. Um, I

186
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.600
didn't like Yeah, I didn't really
care for the movie. And the dancing

187
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:41.240
part was okay. I just never
liked anything that they sang too much,

188
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:45.600
you know, like musicals. They
weren't my thing. Going On to Number

189
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:52.600
Three is one of Change's favorite songs
by two of Change's favorite artists together from

190
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:56.840
the album Pipes of Peace. The
single by Paul McCartney and mister Michael Jackson

191
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:06.440
would say say sang going on to
number two. I gotta tell you,

192
00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:11.640
even though the artist wasn't my favorite, the song wasn't one of my favorites.

193
00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:14.759
I enjoyed the song, of course, But whenever this artist would come

194
00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:18.960
on TV, you know, everybody
was attracted to her legs. Everybody of

195
00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:22.359
course. Of course, from the
album Private Dance, Her is the song

196
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:27.359
What's Love Got to Do? With
it by the one and only Tina Turner.

197
00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:30.480
Now, what did you think of
that song? I hated it,

198
00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:33.799
but I do love Tina Turner.
I loved her with the Ke and Tina

199
00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:38.640
Turner. She's rock and roll.
And this is another song you could probably

200
00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:45.720
put into the category where the misconscrewed
R and B of adult contemporary and you

201
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:51.839
find them right in the Yes,
Chicago and I had Richie I dug.

202
00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:56.839
I liked the album some of the
cuts, but this one I really wasn't

203
00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:00.799
fond of for some reason, you
know what I mean. I don't know.

204
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:04.039
It was just a little I can't
do the soft music like you.

205
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:11.039
No, you can't. You can't
do anything. You can't unless there's a

206
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:15.880
there's real metal and scratching and distortion. You can't do it all right.

207
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:18.799
Jumping into number one, I gotta
admit number one. I don't want to

208
00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:22.640
talk too much about it because it
may or may not be on somebody's list.

209
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:27.440
Not only a great singer, songwriter
and musician. I'm just gonna tell

210
00:18:27.480 --> 00:18:32.720
you that this is from Prince.
This is Billboard's top song for nineteen eighty

211
00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:36.880
four. When Doves Crying Love the
movie Love Prince, Anything he put out

212
00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:41.799
I liked. I have to say
I Billboard got it right on this one

213
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:45.960
number one, when Doves Crying.
Prince the most underrated, greatest guitar players

214
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:51.359
in rock and roll of his time. One of the sexiest cats that ever

215
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:56.079
strapped on a pair of high heels, whoever put on shiny clothing and is

216
00:18:56.240 --> 00:19:00.240
rocked and rocked in the blouse.
If I could be as sexy as Prince,

217
00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:06.160
I'd wear some fucking blouse's roll.
But this dude was top not everything

218
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:11.079
he did. I would like to
see more songs off this album on this

219
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:15.799
top one hundred, but there's there's
not too many more. I think maybe

220
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:22.319
two more they only gave him now. And he would write songs for other

221
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:26.039
bands such as Morris Day in the
Time. Yeah, he would also write

222
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:30.720
songs for the Bengals. Stick around
because we are on our way back to

223
00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:34.119

eighty four. So hang on tight right

eighty four top ten songs according to

our favorite songs, plus a bonus round

242
00:21:07.799 --> 00:21:14.240
song. So I'm going to let
the loser from last week and the past

243
00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:18.519
three are looking in the mirror go
first, and then other words, Chang,

244
00:21:18.599 --> 00:21:21.400
I'd like you to go first because
I'd like to give you a little

245
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:23.799
head starting, and don't feel bad
for yourself if you lose again. I'm

246
00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:27.279
pretty much expecting it. No,
obviously, you were looking in the mirror

247
00:21:27.279 --> 00:21:30.680
when you said you would look at
you were looking at the loser to go

248
00:21:32.160 --> 00:21:37.960
right, right, right? I
have won four? Sure you're one?

249
00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:41.599
Hey, did you get that name
change? Legalizer? Ready? Margo Trump?

250
00:21:42.359 --> 00:21:45.319
Anyway, you're ready to get your
ass handed to you? Are you

251
00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:53.039
ready? Go ahead? This is
my number five on the Changs Bangs Straight

252
00:21:53.079 --> 00:21:59.119
off the Cuff, nineteen eighty four
Top one hundred Billboard Top hits, and

253
00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:04.920
my number five Sinkle goes to number
ninety nine. That's right, ninety nine

254
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:11.440
everyon Donald of the Los Angeles Rams
number. And this is mister Billy Squire

255
00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:26.200
with rock Me to nine now tisconell
Yes, Billy Squire. He wore an

256
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:33.960
interesting array of clothing June of nineteen
eighty four. It was his lead single

257
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:41.119
from his platinum plus album Signs of
Life, and it was rank and peaking

258
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:48.079
at number fifteen on the Billboard Top
one hundred, and then it smashed into

259
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:55.079
hitting number ten on the cash Box. There's another one of those little categories,

260
00:22:55.599 --> 00:23:00.480
and that returned him to number one
on the Top Rock Tracks in August

261
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:08.519
of nineteen eighty four, none other
than mister Billy Squire rock Man the Night,

262
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:15.160
Thank you I have victorious. Yeah. Okay, ladies and gentlemen,

263
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:18.720
throw your flowers in one direction.
You know what song I like from Billy

264
00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:23.480
Squire? My favorite song from Billy
Squire. It was from nineteen eighty one

265
00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:29.160
and it was Lonely is the Night. That's my favorite song that he that

266
00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:32.000
he played. Yeah, here,
that's a good song too, so it

267
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:34.480
stroked me though. Yeah, but
I'm sure you listen to that song a

268
00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:37.720
lot. I do. I do. I hear that song quite a bit

269
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:41.880
in my head. All right,
well, I'll give you half a point

270
00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:45.200
for that one. That's a decent
that's a decent one. That's an ass

271
00:23:45.279 --> 00:23:49.960
kicker. My pick for tonight,
I want you all to enjoy this because

272
00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:55.640
it's my number five pick. It's
the Romantics with Talking in Your Sleep on

273
00:23:55.680 --> 00:24:03.880
the one and only Back to the
eighties radio that was Talking in Your Sleep

274
00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:08.519
by the Romantics, one of Billboard's
top one hundred songs as well. It

275
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:11.759
became, of course a hit in
the UK, but here in the United

276
00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:18.039
States from their album in Heat.
This was just such a catchy tune every

277
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:22.200
time. This is one of those
songs that brings back so many eighties memories.

278
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:26.839
It may have not have been my
favorite band or song, but it

279
00:24:26.920 --> 00:24:30.680
was definitely one of the one of
the favorites of that of that year,

280
00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:33.799
and even today. When I hear
Talking in your Sleep, I mean I

281
00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:37.920
gotta put put the volume up,
you know. Now, did you find

282
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:44.880
yourself dressing like that? The hair
maybe a little bit okay? Kind of

283
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:51.599
those guys resembled a bunch of uh
want to be looklike Roy Orbison's. I'll

284
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:56.279
say that they had some good songs. Now, I did have the Pleasure

285
00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:02.119
and the Joy and the Yeah,
Pleasure and Joy. I'll say, not

286
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:06.759
an honor to meet them. They
played remember My Buddy al Remember the Bad

287
00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:11.279
Wicked Wicked Relish, Yeah, Sheep
Dog Radio Yep. They played with Wicked

288
00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:15.799
Relish at the Galaxy Theater in Orange
County. Now I before they went on

289
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:18.799
stage, I whispered in his ear. I said, hey, bro,

290
00:25:18.920 --> 00:25:22.119
and he goes, yeah, what's
that Chang? I said, I hear

291
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:26.319
the secrets that you keep when you're
talking in your sleep. He then patted

292
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:29.319
me on the shoulder, flipped me
the bird, and walked on stage.

293
00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:34.000
Yeah, a great rock and roll
moment. The song garnered substantial radio airplay,

294
00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:41.119
and they sold a little over a
million forty five singles back then,

295
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:45.160
so they didn't do bad with this. Just one song. I mean,

296
00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:49.200
great song, and I'll take that
full point to your half a point.

297
00:25:49.240 --> 00:25:52.839
So I'm I'm meeting you by half
a point. There's no way there.

298
00:25:53.799 --> 00:26:00.200
And then beat rock me tonight by
Billy. There's just no way. My

299
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:03.359
popularity I did well. You've been
drinking heavily. Nobody even knows who Billy

300
00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:07.279
Squire is. Are you ready to
get your ass handed to you? You

301
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:11.880
can try my number four quad troll
of the Chang's Bang. Here's another lame

302
00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:18.559
shock, five off the top one
hundred Billboard Top one hundred hits of nineteen

303
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:25.079
eighty four. Number four for the
Chang gets loaded like a shotgun shell and

304
00:26:25.200 --> 00:26:30.400
fired off at number four. John
Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band. There's

305
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:34.480
nothing I love more than a Brown
Beaver and John Cafferty. They came out

306
00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:44.440
with on the Dog Side Now.
This song was on the movie Eddy and

307
00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:52.319
the Cruisers, released in nineteen eighty
three. When initially released in September of

308
00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:56.400
eighty three, the song peaked at
none other than number sixty four on the

309
00:26:56.440 --> 00:27:00.519
Billboard Top Chart. Right then and
there, my friend, while the film

310
00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:06.599
remember that movie, love that movie. No, it pulled after three weeks

311
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:12.680
in the theaters. Only only after
three weeks in the theater it was number

312
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:18.720
two. Do you understand what I'm
saying to you? Because it was a

313
00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:22.559
great movie, a great band,
a great song. Thank you very much.

314
00:27:22.599 --> 00:27:26.799
I'll do my victory lap as soon
as you try and say something to

315
00:27:26.920 --> 00:27:32.000
knock this great song down. Please
have another sip of your flat and put

316
00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:36.799
on your Culture Club shirt, because
you, my friend, just lost another

317
00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:41.200
point to me. Brother, You
know what, that was such an interesting

318
00:27:41.240 --> 00:27:45.599
pick and song and band that I
have no choice but then to say,

319
00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:57.599
don't go away back to the eighties. We'll be right back. Do you

320
00:27:57.680 --> 00:28:04.240
remember the first time you tried the
game Space Camp Buckle's practice Captain y'alexee when

321
00:28:04.319 --> 00:28:08.480
you first try and coke and you
said no, thank you, but let's

322
00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:14.440
try and coke again, because once
you got that new wave of taste,

323
00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:18.640
do you want to try it again
again and again? Now practice cuts the

324
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:23.119
way cocago. Hello, this is
the doctor speaking. I detect a large

325
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:29.200
amount of social media usage in your
life. Oncetense, I am recommending you

326
00:28:29.319 --> 00:28:36.839
go back to the eighties. Welcome
back to back to the eighties Chang here

327
00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:41.839
as I have stepped out with a
zero. That Tiscano was zero, and

328
00:28:41.880 --> 00:28:48.160
I've got two points on this musical
modeling monol five against five, Tiscano against

329
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:52.079
Chang. If we were running a
marathon, Tiscanno would be so far behind

330
00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:56.920
me he would not be able to
tell the running sneak I'm wearing, and

331
00:28:56.039 --> 00:29:03.160
I would even be running backwards just
to look at how far behind my number

332
00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:11.680
four okay is from a British progressive
rock band from the album nine oh one

333
00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:17.720
two five Yes with Owner of a
Lonely Heart. Here, I'm back to

334
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:22.880
the eighties radio Oh You're killing Me. Two crappy yes songs, but just

335
00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:30.400
go out of a chart. This
is back to the eighties that was owner

336
00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:34.240
of a Lonely Heart by the band
Yes, that was released in October nineteen

337
00:29:34.279 --> 00:29:38.759
eighty three as the album's first single. It was a commercial success in the

338
00:29:38.839 --> 00:29:45.440
United States, becoming that band's first
and only single to reach number one on

339
00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:48.240
the Billboard one hundred chart. Now
once again, this is another one of

340
00:29:48.279 --> 00:29:53.880
those bands that wasn't my favorite band, wasn't my favorite song of course of

341
00:29:53.920 --> 00:30:00.000
all time. But this song is
on my top list of nineteen eighty four

342
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:04.799
because it just rocked. Wow.
There, I beat all of yours with

343
00:30:04.880 --> 00:30:10.640
just that one. Wow. First
of all, I'm a surprising two counts

344
00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:15.400
that you could kiss so much ass
and such a crappy song. We're a

345
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:18.119
band, it is, Yes,
and I say no right twice in a

346
00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:26.000
roll. Good God, I'm amazed
that you can actually hold that soda beer

347
00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:33.359
to your lips after you kiss so
much massive mass to a band that has

348
00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:36.799
two crappy songs on the list.
Cheers, But I commend you for trying.

349
00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:40.519
You should. Now I'm beating you
by three. Oh, have another

350
00:30:40.599 --> 00:30:44.039
drink, my friend. Remember I'm
still in the lead of the marathon.

351
00:30:44.079 --> 00:30:47.200
As a matter of fact, I'm
on my fourth cup of water. You

352
00:30:47.279 --> 00:30:52.119
my friend, are Bardie on your
second? What's your number three? My

353
00:30:52.359 --> 00:30:57.160
number three? Nodle threst the chang
Bang of the nineteen eighty four Billboard Top

354
00:30:57.279 --> 00:31:07.960
one hundred hits climbs slowly in at
number thirty one with the late great the

355
00:31:07.079 --> 00:31:19.000
Leader of the Beatles, John Lennon
with nobody told me John Lennon was a

356
00:31:19.039 --> 00:31:27.519
great beetle and a great leader to
the free world. And that's all I

357
00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:33.279
gotta say now this albohol, my
god, you're not a Beatle fan,

358
00:31:33.480 --> 00:31:36.880
are you? Are you? I
am? I am, But it's my

359
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:42.319
job to put you down, regardless
of any truth. No, I can't

360
00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:48.160
go there because it you know,
John Lennon, Come on, Nobody told

361
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:52.240
me right? That is the B
side? You did? You know it

362
00:31:52.279 --> 00:31:55.200
was on the B side. I
did. But you know what, I'm

363
00:31:55.200 --> 00:31:57.200
gonna give you this one. I'm
gonna give you this one plus the half

364
00:31:57.240 --> 00:32:00.960
point you had. You got one
and a half point points. No,

365
00:32:00.519 --> 00:32:04.559
you know what, you can go
ahead and go home and listen to Milk

366
00:32:04.599 --> 00:32:07.200
and Honey and you're going to see
that everything that John Lennon put out,

367
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:10.720
including this song, was top notch
number one. You cannot ever beat John

368
00:32:10.799 --> 00:32:16.400
Lennon in whatsoever urdle this that you
are trying to compile or anyone else is

369
00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:20.119
trying to compile. As a matter
of fact, to the Billboard Top one

370
00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:23.720
hundred writers. You suck for not
putting John Lennon at least number one or

371
00:32:23.720 --> 00:32:29.960
two behind Prince or above Prince.
There I spoke my number three. You

372
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:35.400
have mentioned him in this past conversation, but I gotta tell you, he's

373
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:38.759
an American musician, one of the
greats of all time. He's one of

374
00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:46.039
the great songwriters of all time,
solo artists of all time. He received

375
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:54.000
platinum certification before before the certification requirements
were lowered in nineteen eighty nine. I

376
00:32:54.039 --> 00:33:00.720
mean, this guy had it all
and this song, it's just one of

377
00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:05.559
the songs. This song when I
if I'm listening to it alone, I

378
00:33:05.559 --> 00:33:09.559
will tear up because this one brings
a lot of great and passionate moments in

379
00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:14.920
my life, if you know what
I mean. Yes, this is the

380
00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:20.759
single by Prince from the album Purple
Rain, when Doves Cry on the one

381
00:33:20.759 --> 00:33:24.440
and only back to the eighties radio. We'll be right back. We are

382
00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:28.200
back. This is back to the
eighties. That was when Doves Cry.

383
00:33:28.359 --> 00:33:31.960
The single by Prince and on the
album Purple Rain When Dove's Cry was Prince's

384
00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:38.559
first Billboard Hot one hundred number one
single and it stayed there for five weeks.

385
00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:42.480
That you know that, and it
was also worldwide hit. Yes,

386
00:33:42.519 --> 00:33:45.839
I did know that. There's a
lot of things about music. I know,

387
00:33:45.920 --> 00:33:50.279
just because the chang doesn't always want
to plug the headphones into some of

388
00:33:50.319 --> 00:34:00.039
the more poppy of the eighties music
lists or the adult contemporary lists, right

389
00:34:00.200 --> 00:34:05.440
which you are for. That's what
I call the weasel. Sure, sure,

390
00:34:05.759 --> 00:34:07.760
okay, let's go. You listened
to it, obviously, you listened

391
00:34:07.760 --> 00:34:13.119
to it, of course. Are
you read now? Are you ready?

392
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:15.880
I'm ready? But by the way, this song you can't top Prince,

393
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:19.679
And like I said, I gave
you the one with John Lennon, So

394
00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:22.559
you got one and a half points, but I'm still ahead of me three.

395
00:34:22.639 --> 00:34:25.800
I'm winning three to one. No, that's my account right here.

396
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:30.360
Yeah, well you see the contensil
has already scratched off one, two,

397
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:34.400
three, one. No, those
are those are your prison marks there?

398
00:34:35.199 --> 00:34:37.800
Now are you ready? Are you
ready to get it? Get it into

399
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.800
the group right here? My number
two goes to number seventy two. On

400
00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:47.079
the Billboard Top one hundred Hits of
nineteen eighty four. It is number two.

401
00:34:47.679 --> 00:34:52.840
And this one is banging and slanging
in the old Changs bang list,

402
00:34:52.880 --> 00:35:00.159
and that is mister Billy Joel with
an innocent man. Oh who, you

403
00:35:00.199 --> 00:35:04.400
just can't top Billy Joel. I
mean, everything Billy Joel has done has

404
00:35:04.400 --> 00:35:09.079
been pretty damn fantastic, except maybe
his bitter divorce and paying attention to his

405
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:14.440
kid and ripping off his original band
for a lot of money, and kicking

406
00:35:14.440 --> 00:35:19.000
the piano on stage and getting pissed
off on stage and throwing tantrums yeah I

407
00:35:19.039 --> 00:35:22.800
gotta yeah, you know, and
drinking a little bit too much, you

408
00:35:22.840 --> 00:35:24.639
know, then going bald and you're
like, whoa, you look like an

409
00:35:24.639 --> 00:35:29.800
age But yeah, Billie Joel,
com play the I complay the I reason.

410
00:35:32.119 --> 00:35:37.159
Let me apologize for my rude,
lewd comments of Billy Joel to anybody

411
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:39.719
that's a Billy Joel. I love
Billy Joel, by the way too.

412
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:43.800
I get here. But you're right, but back to the eighties would not

413
00:35:43.880 --> 00:35:47.119
be back to the eighties if we
did not have to throw some mocking That's

414
00:35:47.199 --> 00:35:50.639
right. The good the band of
the other and this is not a cutdown

415
00:35:50.719 --> 00:35:54.760
on anyone. Bald, No,
only Billy Joel looks like an egg jewl

416
00:35:54.800 --> 00:36:00.480
ball doesn't mean we hate everyone.
No, No, And you know what,

417
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:01.599
Chang I gotta you know what,
I gotta hand this one to you.

418
00:36:01.880 --> 00:36:06.280
Remember, I gotta hand this one
to you. You were writing every

419
00:36:06.360 --> 00:36:10.360
single point except for that this was
a better song than anything on my list,

420
00:36:10.480 --> 00:36:13.320
you know. But other than that, you got every fact right.

421
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:20.639
One more strike across and I'm at
five to one. I'm winning big time.

422
00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:22.519
I've got a landslide victory. Yeah. I don't even see you in

423
00:36:22.559 --> 00:36:27.800
the marathon anymore. Right, Okay, okay, Changster Trump, Okay,

424
00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:36.920
here we go. Now are you
are you ready? Are you ready to

425
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:42.039
lose your mind? Because that you
think every time you win me, you

426
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:44.960
think you beat me. I'm losing
my mind. No, I mean this,

427
00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:47.280
say to myself. I say to
myself this, I look. I

428
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:50.880
look in the mirror like this when
I go I can't believe those guys.

429
00:36:50.880 --> 00:36:53.119
Thank you just spading me. Well, yeah, well it's hard to lose.

430
00:36:53.159 --> 00:36:54.840
It's hard to lose, but you
know, you know a lot of

431
00:36:54.880 --> 00:37:01.199
that. Okay, So my number
two is the eleven single by this band

432
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:07.000
from their album Seven and the Ragged
Tiger, released in nineteen eighty four.

433
00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:12.159
It was heavily remixed for single release
and was the third and last to be

434
00:37:12.239 --> 00:37:15.599
taken from their third album, Seven
and the Ragged Tiger. The single became

435
00:37:15.639 --> 00:37:21.159
the band's first to reach the top
of the US single charts and their second

436
00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:25.239
to top on the UK Singles Chart. It continues to be a hot hit

437
00:37:25.280 --> 00:37:32.400
today. The one and only Duran
Duran with a reflex back to the eighties

438
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:38.280
radio That was a reflex by Duran
Duran and the reflex became the band's most

439
00:37:38.280 --> 00:37:42.639
successful single. How did you like
that Chang? I mean, look,

440
00:37:44.119 --> 00:37:49.320
it's not my favorite genre, but
wholly smokes Duran Duran and this is a

441
00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:52.119
band that can still sing like they
sang back then. Oh this brings back

442
00:37:52.159 --> 00:37:58.320
all kinds of crazy dance memories and
school memories. You got you gotta love

443
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:02.480
it? Admitted a minute. You're
a Duran Duran head. No, I

444
00:38:02.519 --> 00:38:07.000
see the post behind it gives me
acid reflux. You get zero points for

445
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:12.880
that, mister, MTV. Even
in twenty twenty one, with their singles

446

467
00:40:02.679 --> 00:40:10.360
you straight across the heart with a
song performed by American singer Dan Hartman from

468
00:40:10.360 --> 00:40:14.400
the album I Can Dream About You
in the Streets of Fire. This is

469
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:16.960
Dan Hartman with I Can Dream About
You on the one and only Back to

470
00:40:17.079 --> 00:40:22.880
the Eighties Radio. We are back. This is back to the Eighties Radio

471
00:40:22.920 --> 00:40:28.079
I Can Dream About You Dan Hartman. The reason I just won with this

472
00:40:28.199 --> 00:40:34.880
song because this is one of the
eighties forgotten hits. This was a hit,

473
00:40:35.239 --> 00:40:38.599
one of the eighties bring it back. I brought it back because it

474
00:40:38.639 --> 00:40:44.159
was a phenomenal song. The song
first appear appeared in Streets of Fire,

475
00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:47.920
where it was performed by a fictional
group, the Sorells, and of course,

476
00:40:49.639 --> 00:40:52.920
the real voice behind the version using
the film it was Winston Ford,

477
00:40:53.239 --> 00:40:58.639
but Hartman's version was the one used
on the soundtrack album and released as a

478
00:40:58.679 --> 00:41:02.800
single and became a giant, enormous
hit. This is one of nineteen eighties

479
00:41:04.440 --> 00:41:09.320
lost hits that very rarely gets played
on any radio station today, and when

480
00:41:09.320 --> 00:41:14.719
it does, it just it rocks. This is a great staple of the

481
00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:21.719
nineteen eighties. Thank you, ladies
and gentlemen. I am victorious. Let's

482
00:41:21.719 --> 00:41:24.079
get a break on that note.
We can crown me when we come back.

483
00:41:24.440 --> 00:41:30.079
Yeah, it certainly is a big
bond HiT's a very big fun,

484
00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:36.920
big Jeffy Bon's a very big fluffy
fun. Why's the beef? Some hamburger

485
00:41:36.960 --> 00:41:39.400
places give you a lot less beef
and a lot of bun Where's the beef

486
00:41:39.480 --> 00:41:44.159
at Wendy's? We have a hamburger
we modestly call the single, and Wendy's

487
00:41:44.199 --> 00:41:46.800
single has more beef than the Whopper
or Big Macwendy'. You get more beef

488
00:41:46.880 --> 00:41:53.400
and less bunny. I don't think
you want something better. Your windy is

489
00:41:53.519 --> 00:41:58.840
kind of people. Hey, this
is Laurie Miller from the first an original

490
00:41:58.920 --> 00:42:04.920
expose. When you're listening to back
to the eighties radio, are you ready

491
00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:08.360
to take my bonus track with you

492
00:42:08.440 --> 00:42:14.599
Residency and crying? All right,
let's hear let's hear your bonus round?

493
00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:22.480
All right, My bonus track is
none other from the great mister Captain America

494
00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:30.920
himself, mister born. Oh,
let's say that right, number sixty seven

495
00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:36.400
is my bonus track, and that
is the legendary Bruce Springsteen and the Each

496
00:42:36.519 --> 00:42:40.079
Street Band with cover me. This
is Chang right here. As we go,

497
00:42:40.480 --> 00:42:45.199
Mono Imano and yes, I have
just destroyed Tuscanno for the fifth time.

498
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:52.360
As we go competition edge up on
our Billboard Top one hundred lists that

499
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:58.079
one. I mean that that song
alone should just crown me Captain America.

500
00:42:58.239 --> 00:43:01.039
I need a shield, I need
a little hat, and I need to

501
00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:07.159
start slamming foes that bring me their
woes and their bad song list. Thank

502
00:43:07.199 --> 00:43:09.679
you, thank you, crowding me
later, crowd of me Now, it

503
00:43:09.719 --> 00:43:15.960
doesn't matter because Chang will always be
your musical, my bonus ran, ladies

504
00:43:15.960 --> 00:43:22.840
and gentlemen. This song, released
in April seventh, nineteen eighty four,

505
00:43:24.360 --> 00:43:30.840
recorded in Los Angeles, was the
biggest. It was the biggest hit of

506
00:43:30.880 --> 00:43:38.039
this artist when he went solo.
That's right, I'm talking about the debut

507
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:49.119
solo single by the one and only
voice of an Angelic Bean, Steve Perry,

508
00:43:49.960 --> 00:43:52.800
from the album Street Talk. This
is the one and only song Oh

509
00:43:52.840 --> 00:44:01.400
Sherry on Back to the eighties radio. Enjoy my victory. You should have

510
00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:10.199

feel let us should have been die?

Have the all you the ste what
must have been a dreamer, dreamer and

512
00:44:22.480 --> 00:44:51.199

00:44:51.320 --> 00:45:09.880
go? You go? I'm alone, I'm not Who does be bad?

514
00:45:14.000 --> 00:46:09.440
To be? Shame? O?

00:46:09.719 --> 00:46:40.400
away? And I said, a
little girl your lifetime shame shame, she

516
00:46:40.679 --> 00:47:27.239
said. That was Oh Sherry by
Steve Perry. That was Perry's biggest hit

517
00:47:27.679 --> 00:47:32.320
as a solo artist and written for
his then girlfriend, Sherry Swafford, who

518
00:47:32.360 --> 00:47:37.559
also appeared in the music video,
and the song hit number one three on

519
00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:40.920
pop charts and number one on the
Rock chart in the US, And of

520
00:47:40.920 --> 00:47:50.760
course it received heavy airplay on MTV, which we appreciate back then. Thank

victory, said his debt Now you stayd

523
00:47:59.719 --> 00:48:01.679
heard the song, she too thought
it sucked, so then she left him

524
00:48:01.760 --> 00:48:07.000
right after that. Now are these
ladies emailing? You're texting you right now

525

calendars. No over on that vote,

with Journey and then with Jonathan Kane
the Bank Sock to There. Steve Perry

528
00:48:21.679 --> 00:48:27.519
will always be one of the greatest, one of the greatest vocalists of all

529
00:48:27.599 --> 00:48:30.920
time period. I said it,
I mean it. You know it.

530
00:48:31.320 --> 00:48:37.159
That settles it, right, Okay, okay? And you also like Banana

The Karate Kid. Anyway, Ah,

533
00:48:45.880 --> 00:48:52.960
so we movie. So what did
you guys think of our list? What

534
00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:55.840
did you guys think? Do you
think Chang one or did he lose again

535
00:48:55.880 --> 00:49:00.960
as he's been doing lately, or
did you think that I one as I've

536
00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:04.679
been doing lately. Leave us a
little comment on our Facebook page. We'd

537
00:49:04.719 --> 00:49:06.679
love to hear from you, you
know. Here we always like to joke

538
00:49:06.719 --> 00:49:10.320
around and kid around, but we
can't tell you the very big truth,

539
00:49:10.440 --> 00:49:15.000
which is any song on this list, whether Chang's or mine, or the

540
00:49:15.079 --> 00:49:21.000
Billboard's Top one hundred or top ten, any song is better than any new

541
00:49:21.079 --> 00:49:27.760
song today. I gotta tell you
Chang. Any song on Billboard's Top one

542
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:34.079
is better than any song today,
any song you You sound like a crusty

543
00:49:34.119 --> 00:49:37.920
old man that yells at kids.
Come on, you're gonna disagree. You're

544
00:49:37.920 --> 00:49:42.719
gonna disagree with me that any song
on Billboard's Top one hundred, any song

545
00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:47.199
is better, yes, than any
song today. Yes, you're gonna disagree

546
00:49:47.239 --> 00:49:51.320
with me. I totally disagree with
you. Yes, I disagree with you.

547
00:49:51.360 --> 00:49:53.599
Why and why? Tell me why? And and tell me what song

548
00:49:53.800 --> 00:49:58.559
is better today? You've got none. You've got no proof, you know

549
00:49:58.599 --> 00:50:01.920
why, because there is no better
song today. Anything by rival Sons,

550
00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:07.159
anything by Dirty Honey, No,
I don't think so. Anything by the

551
00:50:07.639 --> 00:50:13.039
revised Black Crows, No, anything
that God Smack puts out, anything is

552
00:50:13.079 --> 00:50:17.440
better now than what we see therefore
on this, Oh brother, you know

553
00:50:17.480 --> 00:50:22.360
what? Hate? Why Why are
you even on back to the eighties.

554
00:50:22.360 --> 00:50:27.519
You're supposed to defend. You're supposed
to defend the eighties, not go in

555
00:50:27.559 --> 00:50:31.679
the pool of the cesspool of the
twenty twenty two. It's all trash to

556
00:50:31.800 --> 00:50:36.960
be king of the Empire of the
eighties, as I've been duly crowned and

557
00:50:37.039 --> 00:50:39.599
knighted with my own round table,
in your own mind. Yes, I

558
00:50:40.079 --> 00:50:44.880
see the bad and the good of
my kingdom of the eighties, and I

559
00:50:44.960 --> 00:50:50.280
must tell you only knights of the
round Table are mettled up or hard rocked

560
00:50:50.280 --> 00:50:57.800
out. Oh brother, it is
all you squires, gestures, fairies and

561
00:50:57.960 --> 00:51:00.719
ladies of the night. Okay,
that makes no sense whatsoever. Yeah,

562
00:51:00.760 --> 00:51:05.880
Okay, anyway, Now I want
to I want to dedicate a song to

563
00:51:05.920 --> 00:51:07.800
you, Tisconna before we end the
show. Yes, please do. This

564
00:51:08.000 --> 00:51:14.840
song is by Billy Ocean because you
are the carry being Queen. Oh I

565
00:51:14.920 --> 00:51:17.920
love it. I want to thank
you guys for having taken the time to

566
00:51:17.960 --> 00:51:22.239
listen to back to the eighties radio. We had a lot of fun bringing

567
00:51:22.239 --> 00:51:25.000
you a lot of great music.
And you know, we're talking to music

568
00:51:25.039 --> 00:51:29.719
for the next few weeks as we
continue on these lists, and it's important

569
00:51:29.760 --> 00:51:32.400
that we let people know, as
I've mentioned before, the reasons why we

570
00:51:32.440 --> 00:51:37.400
continue to love and support the music
of our youth, why it was so

571
00:51:37.440 --> 00:51:42.679
ahead of its time, why it
continues to make waves and hits today even

572
00:51:42.719 --> 00:51:47.320
among the younger ones who are discovering
it for the very first time and are

573
00:51:47.480 --> 00:51:52.960
loving it. So on behalf of
myself I want to thank you for being

574
00:51:52.000 --> 00:51:57.000
here with us. Be safe out
there, it's a jungle, and take

575
00:51:57.000 --> 00:51:59.920
care. We'll see you next week. This you'll chatting before I release you

576
00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:04.039
to another changtastic weekend. I want
you all to remember you matter, Stay

577
00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:08.320
lifted and gifted, put a smile
on that face, do something bigger than

578
00:52:08.400 --> 00:52:13.159
anyone else around you has done.
Stand up for somebody that can't stand up

579
00:52:13.159 --> 00:52:19.280
for themselves. And remember to always
put it in high gear and always go

580
00:52:19.320 --> 00:52:22.480
out every day and kick some rear. You take care of yourselves, and

581
00:52:22.599 --> 00:52:25.719
until next weekend. I'm going to
send a quick tune out to all my

582
00:52:25.920 --> 00:52:34.159
amigos, Chansters, gangsters and Tuscano
terrorizer out there. This is off a

583
00:52:34.199 --> 00:52:40.639
great album and I dedicate this to
all of our listeners out there. We've

584
00:52:40.679 --> 00:52:46.679
got one right here from Huey Lewis
and the News, the heart of rock

585
00:52:46.760 --> 00:52:52.519
and roll is still beating. Audios. Asta manana, asta lusta, asta

586
00:52:52.639 --> 00:52:59.920
lawego, sayonada to all my bros
and Nose and the OC Later day,

587
00:53:00.039 --> 00:53:07.239
all my homies across everybodio from the
desert to the sea. Hotally from me

588
00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:16.639
New York is everything they say and
do fits at a rather be polf can

589
00:53:16.679 --> 00:53:22.719
you do a half a million things? All that, according to free make

590
00:53:22.960 --> 00:53:29.360
them take that? Not a music
I can with a love style, But

591
00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:34.760
it's still that same old b be
riddle The billy really does a whole,

592
00:53:35.880 --> 00:53:43.000
they say. The horror rock rolls
they and the world I see not be

593
00:53:43.719 --> 00:54:00.320
maybe barely freed them from the hard
can roll rost Hollywood and the sunsets strip

594
00:54:00.800 --> 00:54:07.480
is something everyone should see. The
