Coming up, the stories of 11 songs that defined the sound of another great year in music. Maybe the greatest year in music history. 1983. So many classics that will take you back to the good old days, including the massive hit by a band that nobody could pronounce. Plus 6 former criminals who formed the band Madness and had one of the most famous one-hit wonders ever, Our House, yet in the UK they had 30 huge hits.
Plus, the controversial music video for a bizarre remake of Puttin On the Ritz from the Great American Songbook that is now banned for its use of blackface, plus the song that was rejected by record execs for not having any hooks…the bewildered songwriter screamed back at them, the whole song is the hook; he was right, and the song hit #1…So many great songs today…
Let’s get into it.
