It’s An 80s Thing #61 – Surrender & Fight

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 track from John Cougar’s literal “transitional” album. We’re going to hear from my favorite 80s spitfire and we’re going to hear 3 great songs with one great title. You’ll hear all of that and more in this edition of IA8T. If you like classic and AOR this set is for you! Today’s trivia question: One of our musician’s turned Steven Spielberg down when offered the opportunity to audition for the role of Marty McFly, can you guess who that was?
