It’s An 80s Thing #34 – You and Me

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 back-to-back name twins. We’re going to hear a triple shot from Northern California and we’re going to hear about the band who had to change their name AFTER they’d pressed records with their “original” name. We’ve even got a song on here for the BFE which was described by one music critic as “a drum-hooked fucksong”. Our “You and Me” set has a little dance funk, sugary pop, R&B, some new wave and very 80s style rock and roll for you.
