It’s An 80s Thing #68 – Promises & Lies

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 by the band who’s name was inspired by the adage “When In Rome, Do As The Romans Do”. We’re going to hear what happened when a Duranie broke free of the New Romantic movement and we’re going to hear about Lipstick Lies and those Promises made In The Dark from the same artist! You’ll hear all of that and more in this edition of IA8T.

1. When In Rome – The Promise
