It’s An 80s Thing #57 – Touch To(o) Much

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 the only #1 hit for a band who had nearly 20 top 40 charting singles. We’re going to hear what John Lennon had to say about The Cars and we’re going to hear the shortest UK #1 hit of the 80s clocking in at about 2 minutes long! You’ll hear all of that and more in this edition of IA8T.
