Join us as we dive into the enchanted world of 80s music with the second half of Playlist 11. This episode features a delightful mix of chart-toppers and lesser-known gems that defined an era of musical innovation and exuberance.
Discover the rise of Sheena Easton's bubblegum anthem "Morning Train" and the fascinating story behind its global success. Hear about Diana Ross's groundbreaking collaboration with Chic's Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards, resulting in the revolutionary hit "Upside Down." We also explore the dramatic impact of Bow Wow Wow's "C30, C60, C90 Go," a song that not only challenged the music industry norms but also became a cultural touchstone for an era where music was home-recorded onto tapes.
Relive the nostalgia with tracks that take you through the vibrant landscape of post-punk and soulful notes, including George Benson's "Give Me the Night" and the disco magic of Kelly Marie's "Feels Like I'm in Love." From rebellious beats to soul-stirring melodies, this episode is a captivating journey through the tunes that continue to resonate with us today.
