It’s An 80s Thing #24 – Mystery Set

After providing data for hundreds of Soundwaves 10@10 episodes, Intern Steve steps into the spotlight with a deep dive into All Things 80s. Almost every episode will be two parts … each half a distinctly different subject from its counterpart … seemingly unrelated pop culture and music topics that (more often than not) will have a connection!

Today We’re going to hear a song that charted 4 times between 1983-1995! We’re going to hear a song that quotes Oscar Wilde and we’re going to hear from a group of men that was voted the second best collaboration of all time by Rolling Stone, only outranked by Mariah Carey and Boys II Men. BTW Intern Steve’s opinion is that, Rolling Stone got the order wrong . . . Today’s trivia question, can you guess what song (collaboration) that is anyway?
