Welcome to the first episode of "I Completed 80s Music," hosted by the 80s Mixtaper. This episode kicks off an epic musical journey through the vibrant 80s UK pop charts, featuring iconic tracks from December 31, 1979, to December 31, 1989. Expect fascinating insights and fun facts about each song, starting with Dynasty's "I Don't Want To Be A Freak" and ending with The Specials' "A Message to You, Rudy."
Join us as we explore the transition from the disco era of the late 70s, featuring ABBA's "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme," to the emergence of synth-pop with John and Vangelis' "I Hear You Now." We'll also dive into the comedic charm of B.A. Robertson's "Knocked It Off" and the jazzy grooves of Herb Alpert's "Rise."
Relive the magic of soft rock with Styx's "Babe" and celebrate the ska revival with The Specials. This episode is a nostalgic trip filled with glitter, funky beats, and timeless classics that defined a decade. So, strap on your Walkman, don your leg warmers, and get ready to dance through the 80s!
