00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:04.280
I'm so scared. I wish I
had a ham sandwich to call my nerves.

2

14
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:48.159
he is every single Friday, is
a man that has served more Facebook jail

15
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:53.000
time than Donald Trump himself. He
has been seen cruising the Sunset Strip and

16
00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:59.359
a Chevy Nova wearing only a Los
Angeles Lakers beanie. Here, I'm back

17
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:06.760
to the eighties. We call him
the Chang. Oh Yes, ladies and

18
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:12.400
gentlemen, boys and girls, chang
heads and chang dudes. It is either

19
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:17.919
Chang. I am sitting beside the
greatest Italian since Chef Boyard, my boy,

20
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:22.719
my partner, my driver, my
partner crime, my right hand man,

21
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:30.360
my left shoe. There you go, Toscano, Toscano. I want

22
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:35.599
to tell you from the bottom of
my black soul, it is changtastic to

23
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:38.879
be here today. We want to
welcome all of you back to the eighties,

24
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:45.319
even you that never even we're in
the eighties, but maybe you were

25
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:50.319
procreated after. Maybe you may be
a little bit older, you're from the

26
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.919
seventies. You want to talk about
Motown, whatever, Welcome to the show.

27
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:58.039
We're gonna be taking it back today. We are going to be talking

28
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:01.199
about nineteen eighty five, the middle
of the decade, and it seemed that

29
00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:06.439
for a lot of us, it
seemed like nothing was impossible that you could

30
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:10.120
conquer the world. Nothing seemed to
be able to hurt you, harm you,

31
00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:14.080
or to touch you. You know, you remember, there's a point

32
00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:17.919
that we all thought we were invincible
back then. The mindset of anyone growing

33
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:23.800
up in nineteen eighty five felt like
we were a superhero of some kind of

34
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:30.159
a somebody like a bionic woman or
a bionic man. We were invincible,

35
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:35.759
We could, we would endure anything. We were like, as Bruce Lee

36
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:42.319
would say, water is the strongest
element in life. It can replenish you,

37
00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:49.599
destroy you, It could corrode any
other type of material. Be like

38
00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:53.080
water. My friend, that is
definitely pretty deep, my friend, isn't

39
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:55.159
it? Well? You know,
before we kick off the show and talk

40
00:03:55.159 --> 00:04:00.039
about nineteen eighty five, there are
two news articles that I wanted to kind

41
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:04.560
of talk about because although it is
news from today, a lot of that

42
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:09.240
has a little bit of the eighties. There with you. There's a very

43
00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:14.400
famous singer that exudes the word American
for a lot of people, and he,

44
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:17.240
as a matter of fact, was
seen in a Jeep commercial at the

45
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:20.399
Super Bowl this year. Oh my
good, I know who you're talking about

46
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:27.240
at Nancy is going to get upset
me? Oh yes. Unfortunately, unfortunately,

47
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:31.160
Bruce Springsteen super Bowl ad for Jeep
calling for the country to unite has

48
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:39.199
been pulled after new surface that the
Boss himself is facing drunk driving charges.

49
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:45.839
So apparently his blood alcohol content was
zero point zero two, which is less

50
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:50.120
than New Jersey's legal limit of zero
point zero eight. What's the big deal?

51
00:04:50.680 --> 00:04:57.120
According to the reports, he was
consuming alcohol enclosed areas. He was

52
00:04:57.160 --> 00:05:01.319
also cited for driving well intoxicated record
just driving and you know he may have

53
00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.000
had a drink in his hand or
two. Now, first of all,

54
00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:09.399
he was not the boss that evening, obviously, the police department where the

55
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:13.959
bosses. I ask our listeners in
you if anybody knows was he driving that

56
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:17.639
jeep that he was in the commercial
with. I don't know if he get

57
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:21.680
him a lawyer. Now, of
course I'm gonna make fun of this and

58
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:26.839
I'm going to have a chang terrific
time with this, But it is a

59
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:32.079
very serious topic as you bring it
up, and it doesn't really matter what

60
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:39.040
areas, state, or laws you
may go by. The bottom line is

61
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:43.759
don't drink and drive. You have
to stay alive. You're not only putting

62
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:49.879
yourself in danger or harm, but
other drivers, pedestrians, your own family,

63
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:58.600
everybody pays with every action that we
as individuals partaken. Now I've lost

64
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:06.639
a few friends of mine due to
intoxication behind the wheel or a motorized vehicle.

65
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:13.360
I in fact lost my best friend
at the age of nineteen due to

66
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:19.360
intoxicating driving. Now we believe that
the driver that struck him in the van,

67
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:24.920
he was on his motorcycle. He
was rather intoxicated. That the driver

68
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:30.360
of the van was also intoxicated and
did not go to the police. But

69
00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:33.959
it was a hit and run because
she herself was hammered. You know,

70
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:39.040
as young people, we all go
out there and we test the grounds of

71
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:43.360
life, correct, to test the
bound what can we get away with it.

72
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.800
I'm not going to lie, of
course, you know I'm not.

73
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:48.120
I'm going to give it to you
straight from the hit. As a young

74
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:53.680
person, I did get hammered and
drive, by the grace of the Great

75
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:57.800
Spirit, maybe because there was a
quest or something I was supposed to do.

76
00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:00.079
I was unscathed. I was never
in an accident. I didn't hurt

77
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:05.920
anyone. I never had an arrest
or a criminal record. I never fell

78
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:12.199
to the weakness of addiction. But
I tested the waters. And as a

79
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.839
father, grandfather, now a man
of my age, and what I believe

80
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:19.360
in, and knowing that I've lost
loved ones drinking and driving. It doesn't

81
00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:24.120
matter, you just don't do it. Yeah, and unfortunately we have somebody

82
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:27.759
who's in the eye of the public. There's going to be most people that

83
00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:31.720
are going to understand the situation circumstances
because more than one person out there has

84
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:38.480
been caught in the same and everybody
is afforded mistakes. Unfortunately, when you're

85
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:41.720
in the eye of the public,
it doesn't seem that they are afforded many,

86
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:46.199
many of these mistakes. But another
piece of news came out today,

87
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:49.720
something related to the eighties, was
anything that has to do with Star Wars

88
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:54.839
Empire Strikes Back, Return of the
Jedi thing. There's a new TV show

89
00:07:54.959 --> 00:08:01.959
on Apple TV called The Mandalorian which
is an absolute, huge, huge success.

90
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.639
Well, one of the actresses that
stars in the show, her name

91
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:11.319
is Gina Corano, who start as
the Unassailable warrior Karadoon in the same show,

92
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:16.600
is no longer going to be appearing
in any future Star Wars projects after

93
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:22.199
she offensively shared some social media posts, including one that compared Nazi Germany to

94
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:28.879
the current political landscape, and unfortunately, Lucasfilm fired Corona on Wednesday, calling

95
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:33.080
the social media post she made that
day abhorrent. Not only did she make

96
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:37.840
those kinds of posts, but she
also said things that had to do with

97
00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:43.000
making fun of the masks mandate.
Nevertheless, Corona was also dropped by her

98
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:48.919
United Talent Agency on Wednesday as well. So, I mean, I don't

99
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.799
know, did she throw her entire
career away? You know, time will

100
00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:58.000
only tell It kind of looks that
way now, I believe is this not

101
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:03.159
the girl that was a martial artist. Yes, she's a big boned girl,

102
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:07.480
the very big boned girl. She
also came out in Deadpool and she's

103
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:13.120
the girl who fights against Deadpool,
and she's she's got superpowers as well.

104
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:16.600
I mean, she's a very pretty
lady. But she's very big boned.

105
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:22.080
I'm not gonna say she's overweight.
She's literally big boned. She's like an

106
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:28.240
Amazonian. It would kind of fall
into the words of a Jethrow Tall song

107
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:33.159
and let me sing it. She's
as thick as a brick. I know

108
00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:37.399
who she is. I'm I was
a fan of her movies. I like

109
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:39.840
her. I think she's attractive.
I think she can kick some major ass.

110
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:45.840
I you know, it's a shame
that she let her political views and

111
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:50.159
believes get in the way of her
career, and I think that's something that

112
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.960
we see at the forefront now and
going back to your first story, and

113
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:58.039
that's why the boss is in the
news over this, right. You know,

114
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:03.080
you become a celebrity, you kind
of are handed the type of role

115
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:09.000
model stature that comes with that.
And I think that's why when we see

116
00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:13.919
our entertainers living normal lives, we
have a lot of speculation and let down

117
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:18.600
and controversy. Everybody forgets they're just
regular people like you and me, but

118
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:24.320
they just do something different for a
living. Possibly the show may hurt from

119
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:26.120
that, don't you. I don't
know at this point, and no,

120
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:31.080
I think Mandalorian is going to be
just fine without her. She was a

121
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:33.279
great addition to the show. But
the show is going to be If it's

122
00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:37.559
not like the main star was caught, then I think the program would be

123
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:41.720
hurt. This is back to the
eighties. When we come back, we're

124
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:43.679
going to take a short identify or
break. When we come back, we're

125
00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:46.799
back at it talking about the year

back to the eighties. And this is

141
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:48.159
Chang from the Stupidous Tiskanow and Chang. We were talking off air right now

142
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:52.440
and I was referred to as an
angry chi No, no, no,

143
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:58.080
nobody, nobody ever said you were
in angry chihuahua. Nobody. I just

144
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:03.320
merely pointed out after a comment that
you made during the break where you mentioned

145
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:07.600
something that you would be willing to
go a couple of of, let's say,

146
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:13.440
erotic rounds with Gina Corano, and
I just said that, you know,

147
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:18.559
looking at her, she is like
an Amazonian, you know, lady,

148
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:24.440
She's like a Brahma bull, and
you know, it's like mating a

149
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:28.039
Brahma bull with chihuahua. But then
I corrected it. I corrected it,

150
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:31.360
and I said, more like a
greyhound, yeah, okay, and I

151
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:39.799
said more like a Jack Russell,
yeah, to which I said that anything

152
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:43.759
I think that a Brahma bull touches
is going to get hurt. Anyway,

153
00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:48.600
this is back to the eighties.
We're back at it talking about nineteen eighty

154
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:50.679
five, the middle of the decade, and we're going to be starting it

155
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:56.799
off with an event that made sports
history. And that event was WrestleMania,

156
00:13:56.919 --> 00:14:03.200
which, by the way, sold
out Madison Square Gardens and one million people

157
00:14:03.240 --> 00:14:07.720
throughout the United States saw the event. They saw Hulk Hogan with mister t

158
00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:13.799
versus Paul Orndorff and Roddy Rowdy Piper. He was my favorite. Yeah.

159
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:18.200
Also Big John Studd against Andre the
Giant. Do you remember the Two Giants?

160
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:22.840
Oh dude, Yeah, you know. I was not a very big

161
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:28.240
wrestling fan, but I did enjoy
watching some of the matches. I am

162
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:33.039
familiar with a lot of the famous
wrestlers. I've told you before. My

163
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:37.720
most favorite is the Ultimate Warrior.
I was like, yeah, I remember

164
00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:41.879
you saying that, and the Heart
Brothers. I mean I liked all the

165
00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:46.879
long haired cats for for some reason. Right, Yeah, So that was

166
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:50.080
one of the biggest events I actually
I actually convinced my dad. We were

167
00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:56.240
at the Long Beach Convention Center,
and I convinced my dad to pay us

168
00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:01.559
some tickets and get me into the
convention Center to watch WrestleMania, which was

169
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:07.200
shown through close circuit TV. And
I will never forget my dad paid thirteen

170
00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:13.159
dollars per ticket to watch a screen. That's a deal then, So I

171
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:18.639
actually got to see WrestleMania live at
the Sports Arena and Long Beach, but

172
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:22.919
through a close circuit TV. So
it was it was a lot of food,

173
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:24.120
it was a lot of fun,
That is pretty cool, man,

174
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:28.480
That's pretty cool of your dad to
do that for you. Yeah, because

175
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:30.720
in my case, you know,
my kids would have said, you know,

176
00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:35.679
can we go watch can we go
watch this event on a big screen?

177
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:37.840
And it's going to be at today's
prices, I don't know, two

178
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:41.399
hundred dollars, apiece. I'm going
to say, you know what, No,

179
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:45.679
no, you can watch it from
home when it comes out on Netflix

180
00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:48.159
or whatever. I was actually going
to say, when it comes out on

181
00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:50.440
tape. We'll shoot the pay per
view for all these events. Bro,

182
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:56.440
it's skyrocketed. That's crazy. It's
crazy how they made this business of live

183
00:15:56.480 --> 00:16:03.080
events got so huge. Jumping on
to April twenty third, Coca Cola Company

184
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:12.679
launched New Coke. Is this a
private party? Kin? Any story?

185
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:17.080
Crush? So New Coke? He
was catching on the taste. He is

186
00:16:17.120 --> 00:16:22.879
better. And you were there you
said the pe word. So what do

187
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:30.360
I want to know is if you're
drinking coke, who's drinking pepsi? If

188
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:36.840
you can't beat it, that's the
way. That was crap. Unfortunately,

189
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:41.240
three months later, in July,
Coke returned to the original formula by popular

190
00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:48.039
demand, or I should say,
by unrest because people hated it. Oh

191
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:52.519
dude, I hated that crap.
Now, I don't think I ever tasted

192
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:56.639
new coke. They you know,
they still sold new coke until two thousand

193
00:16:56.679 --> 00:17:00.840
and two. Yes, I am
aware of that. I remember seeing that

194
00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:03.039
and I would be like, I
saw that, and I was like,

195
00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:07.680
I can't believe that people would actually
still buy this crap. I remember when

196
00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:11.559
Coca Cola did that. Was it
like a taste similar to Coke zero or

197
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:15.839
a diet coke or something like that? You know what? I would say,

198
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:22.000
it was probably like Coke zero thinking
back, you know what I mean,

199
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:25.200
Yeah, it was something like that, But I mean it was just

200
00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:29.720
you could just taste the difference.
Now, you ever go down and you

201
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:32.640
go to a store and you buy
the new Coca Cola in the bottle,

202
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:37.000
but it's the one that is bottled
in mechical, yeah, which tastes so

203
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:41.960
much better. You get that that
different taste as opposed to the ones that

204
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:45.880
are bought here in the plastic container
of the can. Correct. Correct,

205
00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:53.720
So I would say the new Coca
Cola and Coke zero are probably the similarity,

206
00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:57.480
just as it was back then when
they made Well, that would make

207
00:17:57.519 --> 00:18:03.640
sense. They just branding new coke
or that same formula and just calling it

208
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:04.920
coke zero, and then people are, yeah, I mean, you still

209
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:08.119
got stuff in those vat tanks,
Brosie, might as well use that crap

210
00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:11.720
up and sell it to the bulls. I mean, you know what's funny.

211
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:18.119
My grandfather worked for Coca Cola for
thirty five years, so I used

212
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.960
to frequently go to the Coca Cola
plant off of Olympic in Los Angeles that

213
00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:29.960
was built shaped as a ship,
and there was two huge Coca Cola bottles

214
00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:33.079
really front of the building. Oh, I don't remember that. I remember

215
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:37.759
them having like a giant coke bottle
outside, but it was with Neon lights,

216
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:41.359
so I'm not sure. That was
way after two structures that were made

217
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:48.839
out of glass, actual huge sized
coke bottles. That was probably the i'd

218
00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:53.200
say jus sixties, late sixties,
early seventies. You know. My grandfather

219
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:57.759
retired, I believe in eighty Yeah, from Coca Cola. Yeah, I

220
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.599
took the PEPSI I always picked coke. I couldn't tell the difference at first,

221
00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:04.440
you know, not un till I
got older, where I actually could

222
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:07.279
taste a little bit of the difference. But as a kid, I always

223
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:11.039
used to have pepsi more than coke. But it was whatever was around.

224
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:14.920
If I had coke, it was
the same thing to me. I remember,

225
00:19:15.160 --> 00:19:17.640
you know, going to any fast
food place, I never said give

226
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:19.039
me a pepsi. I always said, give me a coke. How about

227
00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:23.759
rc R C Cola, which they
still sell today, and they sell them

228
00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:30.519
wet at the stores. Yes,
yeah, I remember Arci Cola, art

229
00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:37.240
a jolt nothing. My friend will
beat a Jolt Cola double the sugar,

230
00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:42.680
twice that caffeine. It literally says
it on the can. Oh, dude,

231
00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:48.920
I remember drinking Jolt Cola and it
was like, whoa man? Who

232
00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:52.519
needs to buy illegal drugs when you
could just buy a six pack of this

233
00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:59.599
and just go right right. You
remember when we were doing the Toscano and

234
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:03.079
Chang show, we were drinking our
Jo colas. Yes, yes, they

235
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:07.960
we have a store nearby. We
have one of those. It's not Bevmo,

236
00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:11.359
it's I don't know, is it
a Bevmo. It's one of those

237
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:15.000
stores. We sent a man boy
to get them. Yes, yes,

238
00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:23.359
we had two Jolt colas and they
were just as good as they've always been.

239
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:27.279
All right, jumping over to July
thirteenth of nineteen eighty five, the

240
00:20:27.400 --> 00:20:33.920
music industry hosted simultaneous concerts as an
ongoing relief for the famine issue they were

241
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:41.480
having in Ethiopia. One of the
most famous concert events of all time Live

242
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:45.640
AID. And it was so fantastic
because Live Aid was going on simultaneously in

243
00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:51.119
England at Wembley Stadium, and it
was also going on here in the United

244
00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:55.799
States. And check this fun fact
out. There was one of the artists

245
00:20:55.839 --> 00:21:00.480
that played at Wembley Stadium got on
the concord and England after doing his set,

246
00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:06.559
and arrived in Philadelphia to do his
second set at JFK. Do you

247
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:08.640
know who that artist was? You
know what at the moment, I do

248
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:17.839
not know, none other than Phil
Collins himself. Oh it's a Phil Collins.

249
00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:21.519
It's odd that you bring up Phil
Collins, but you it's it's just

250
00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:26.920
rightfully sold because Phil Collins, yes, was the musical sensation back in the

251
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:33.680
eighties, former drummer and later to
be lead singer of Genesis after the departure

252
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:41.920
of Peter Gabriel. Then Phil got
a little bit gerber babied out oh that

253
00:21:41.119 --> 00:21:47.880
Genesis to partake in his own solo
career. Yeah, in which now on

254
00:21:47.960 --> 00:21:52.000
social media, you I'm sure a
lot of people have seen that Phil Collins

255
00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:57.400
is battling with his ex drummer of
the Phil Collins Group, blaming him for

256
00:21:59.039 --> 00:22:03.680
a certain favor years within that stream
of time with him. The funny thing

257
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:07.440
about Phil Collins is he looks like
the Gerber baby, all grown up,

258
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:12.160
you know, once he made that, uh that song. Take a look

259
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:17.079
at yourself, do you mean take
a look at me? Now? You're

260
00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:21.599
like the You're like Michael Bolton.
You know, no, you can't compare.

261
00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:26.279
Phil Collins is a genius. Look, Phil Collins is one of the

262
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:30.079
greatest artists of all time. Almost
every song on every single album he's ever

263
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:33.079
come out with have been hits.
They've been played on the radio. How

264
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.759
many artists can say that, Hey, wait a minute, I think the

265
00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:41.039
hot line is. You have the
hot line on on mute. I see

266
00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:45.519
the button going, Let's see,
let's answer the phone here, let's see.

267
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:53.920
It's back to the eighties. And
I hate Phil Collins. I hate

268
00:22:55.200 --> 00:23:00.200
and you are craving Phil Collins.
I hate Phil Collins, I hate his

269
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:06.240
hair, I hate his complaining.
I hated when he made that soul song.

270
00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:10.759
I hate that he made music for
Disney. I hate Phil Collins.

271
00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:15.400
No, Dick, tell me this
hate for Phil Collins comes. Why give

272
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:19.960
me a good reason? Well,
I'm gonna give you good reasons why hate

273
00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:26.279
Phil Collings? Okay, first one
is he looks like a goddamn gerber baby,

274
00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:30.599
and I hate that you're a grod
aesque man. Shave that head if

275
00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:34.160
if you want to look like Friar
Top, do it on your own time.

276
00:23:34.279 --> 00:23:38.160
Don't seem to me about sweet song
or play half a cabin. Looked

277
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:42.119
like a goddamn pamper baby, now
you wan't. Reason Number two why I

278
00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:48.240
hate Phil Collins. I hate Phil
Collins because he got them damn glasses where

279
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:52.400
he looked like John Denver. You
don't look like John Denver. You look

280
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:56.759
like the gerber baby with John Denver
glasses. Number three why I hate Phil

281
00:23:56.880 --> 00:24:03.279
Collins I hate Still called because that
damn saw that Chang try to sing and

282
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:08.200
kang things like he's drowning in the
torments. I hate what Chang thing like.

283
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:11.920
I hate when you wear bullheads and
don't Saint Dodger. Well, no,

284
00:24:12.319 --> 00:24:15.680
uh, do you have maybe one
more? I don't think we have

285
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:21.079
time to go all through through all
ten. I hate that Phil Commons took

286
00:24:21.079 --> 00:24:25.559
over ten mayor Gabriel listen the back
of the age. Who's just gotta chang?

287
00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:30.440
I hate him five Dicator ladies and
gentlemen. I see a lot of

288
00:24:30.480 --> 00:24:36.160
resemblance between Dick Hator and the way
you express yourself sometimes about artists chang.

289
00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:41.519
You know what's Sometimes I'm afraid that
I may take a Dicator pill and I

290
00:24:41.559 --> 00:24:44.680
don't know who slips them into the
studio, But every now and then I

291
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:48.720
feel a little Dicator in me.
September one of nineteen eighty five, a

292
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:57.160
very famous ship was found off the
coast of Newfoundland, The Titanic was found,

293
00:24:57.880 --> 00:25:02.079
really and in the that same month, of the month of September.

294
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:06.720
Now going totally the opposite direction,
De Snyder, lead singer of Twisted Sister

295
00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:12.480
Yes, testified before the US Senate
trying to defend music censorship. Now thanks

296
00:25:12.519 --> 00:25:18.680
to the move of the all powerful
government wives, they pushed to get ratings

297
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:23.200
on albums just like movies were rated. And originally they had invited Snyder kind

298
00:25:23.240 --> 00:25:26.599
of to embarrass him. They thought, Oh, this guy's a fool,

299
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:33.079
He's going to embarrass himself and basically
prove our point to state that this music

300
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:38.000
makes you dumb, etc. Etc. But they had no idea the eloquence

301
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:45.839
in Snyder's testimony, because he gave
an incredible presentation against censorship. Since I

302
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.680
seem to be the only person addressing
this committee today who has been a direct

303
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:55.279
target of accusations from the presumably responsible
PMRC, I would like to use this

304
00:25:55.359 --> 00:26:00.359
occasion to speak on a more personal
note and show just how unfair the whole

305
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:03.839
concept of lyrical interpretation and judgment can
be, and how many times this can

306
00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:11.880
amount a little more than character assassination. I remember that they were expecting de

307
00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:17.079
Snider to look like a brainless drug
addict, like a degenerate, and he

308
00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:23.880
came off making Tipper Gore look like
a stuffy conservative librarian lady that was bitter

309
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:30.279
and pretty much prejudicial. I remember
that time so well, because, of

310
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:32.920
course, you know, eighty five, I was a rock and roller,

311
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:37.240
hair down to the ground. So
I tripped out with the censorship that we

312
00:26:37.240 --> 00:26:44.079
were going through back then, and
I thought that back then it was an

313
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:49.279
one of the first forms of control, one of the first forms of our

314
00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:56.960
government to stepping into giving losing some
of our freedoms. And I still bow

315
00:26:56.079 --> 00:27:02.079
down and have mad respect for for
Dees and for stepping up and hitting a

316
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:06.319
home run for all of music,
all of us that are a little different,

317
00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:11.200
and all of us that tend to
want to push back a little bit,

318
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:11.880
you know what I mean. Now, I'm not going to ask you

319
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:15.839
if you like his music, because
I know you don't. You probably definitely

320
00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:18.640
don't like the way they used to
dress. But you gotta hand it to

321
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:22.640
Dee Snyder and the band phenomenal rock. Oh dude, I likede Snyder's music,

322
00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:26.240
you know what I mean. I
like Twisted Sister. I was writing

323
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:30.799
that era. As a matter of
fact, two of the Twisted Sisters videos

324
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:34.079
were filmed at my high school when
I was going to high school then.

325
00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:41.319
Which which was it I Want to
Rock? Yeah, the swimming pool scene

326
00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:45.000
when it looks like they're on stage, that was our auditorium. As a

327
00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:48.359
matter of fact, Well, when
they did the song We're Not going to

328
00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:53.440
Take It, Yeah, I remember
watching that guy jump off the small balcony

329
00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:57.319
at Montabella High School. Me and
my homeboys. We got kicked out of

330
00:27:57.400 --> 00:28:04.000
the auditorium during that because we were
yelling obscenities at d Snyder when he was

331
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:10.440
walking down. Of course, Now
why does that not surprise me? Chang,

332
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:14.160
Well, why does that not surprise
me? Yeah? We were some

333
00:28:14.200 --> 00:28:15.920
crazy cats, man, but it
was all in fun. It was all

334
00:28:17.000 --> 00:28:18.319
jokes. You know. We were
going, hey, what are you doing

335
00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:23.200
with football pads on you? Your
hair looks like my mom's beautician. You

336
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:26.440
know, I haven't seen bad makeup
like that since I made out with a

337
00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:30.640
Chola and an al Camino. I
mean, we were just bombarding the hell

338
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:33.559
out of the dude, bro.
But you know what, he was cool,

339
00:28:34.119 --> 00:28:37.279
slapped high fives with us. He
thought we were totally metal. He

340
00:28:37.759 --> 00:28:41.240
thought that they shouldn't have kicked us
out, you know, because we were

341
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:45.319
bringing the riot to the party.
Bro. They wanted kids to look like

342
00:28:45.359 --> 00:28:49.000
they were at a concert. Mountebello
High School gave him. Hell my brother,

343
00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:53.000
that seems like it. On December
twenty third, now this is news

344
00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:57.039
up your alley, because you're the
one who's gonna probably school us on the

345
00:28:57.039 --> 00:29:03.920
whole four one one this next event. On December twenty three, Bring on

346
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:10.000
Nevada, two young guys shot themselves
in an apparent pact because of the lyrics

347
00:29:10.039 --> 00:29:12.759
of Judas Priest. Yes, I
was going to bring that up, but

348
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:17.799
I knew you were going to bring
the story up, so it's it's something.

349
00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:21.279
Of course, you know, The
Priests is my favorite band. Yeah.

350
00:29:21.640 --> 00:29:23.799
The other funny thing is, you
know what I feel about music.

351
00:29:23.880 --> 00:29:30.640
I think comedy and music are the
two entities that bring a unity, bring

352
00:29:30.759 --> 00:29:38.839
peace. They bring composure and calmness. And the funny thing is like when

353
00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:45.960
that scenario happened with those parents coming
out and trying to literally blame one band

354
00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:53.759
for the lyrics rather than take responsibility
for any of their shortcomings that may have

355
00:29:55.440 --> 00:30:02.680
enhanced their child's dishappiness disapproval of themselves
to where he would want to commit suicide.

356
00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:10.400
You know that was also a very
eye opening and kind of a groundbreaking

357
00:30:11.119 --> 00:30:17.799
event in itself where that was the
final hammer down on you cannot blame us

358
00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:23.359
in the music for what your children
do. Do you remember back when of

359
00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:27.599
course, even it goes back to
when Dee Snyder was fighting against censorship,

360
00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:33.400
but to a certain extent, do
you feel that And this goes for every

361
00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:37.640
band, and it doesn't matter.
It could be it could even be rap,

362
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:41.039
right, it could be anything but
music. We've talked about many times

363
00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:45.759
on the show. Music is powerful, music is universal. Music has the

364
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:51.480
power to heal, but it also
has the power to bring down. It's

365
00:30:51.559 --> 00:30:56.799
just what it is. Do you
think that these bands shouldn't accept any responsibility

366
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:03.759
for contributing in any way? That's
a very difficult question, and I'm going

367
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:08.960
to give you my answers like this, I feel that it is all the

368
00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:18.240
mindset of an individual that is going
to kind of sway or transition his mind

369
00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:25.400
and likes into the music that is
befitting his or her mindset at that present

370
00:31:25.559 --> 00:31:30.200
time. I think when it comes
to a teenager, especially a young fresh

371
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:36.559
mind, which is like a sponge
who does not have the wisdom or the

372
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:42.240
lively daily experiences the calls hard facts
of okay, you either deal with it

373
00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:47.720
or don't. So a young mind
is very impressionable, and a young mind

374
00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:55.200
can be impressioned by music, pornography, movies, news, actions within their

375
00:31:55.240 --> 00:32:00.839
own house, whether or not they
were bullied or not being nied by other

376
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:07.799
people that are their age. So
I will say that I do not blame

377
00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:15.480
the artists. They are creating a
song which comes from an emotion that they

378
00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:22.640
themselves have experienced that is the number
one route which music kind of thrives in

379
00:32:22.759 --> 00:32:29.200
all of us because it's something that
we can all relate to. So I

380
00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:36.319
think the young mind is very impressionable. So the young mind gravitated to that

381
00:32:36.440 --> 00:32:43.240
song and the lyrics kind of touched
a nerve to enhance their already questionable feelings

382
00:32:43.240 --> 00:32:50.279
of what they were feeling insignificant or
uncomfortable with prior. The other thing you

383
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:55.720
have to maybe look at, were
these youth experimenting an alcohol or drugs.

384
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.039
Were they having a hard time at
home? Were getting bullied, were they

385
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:07.279
getting denied? Were they feeling suppressed? So when an individual feels that way,

386
00:33:07.279 --> 00:33:10.880
of course they're going to cater to
something that sues their pain. Sure,

387
00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:15.480
sure you follow me. Yeah.
So basically, I mean there's tons

388
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:20.319
of reasons why they did what they
did and why other youths happened to do

389
00:33:20.359 --> 00:33:25.640
that, And sometimes music can can
be a certain factor in something that they've

390
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:32.480
already made their mind up to do. From the chang's mind and heart to

391
00:33:32.640 --> 00:33:35.920
your ears, this is back to
the eighties. When we come back,

392
00:33:35.960 --> 00:33:39.519
We've got music, movies and back
to the eighties. Oh yeah, a

393
00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:43.799
whole lot more kids come on back. Hey, why pals t Kano and

394
00:33:43.880 --> 00:33:46.759
Chang went to school in the eighties
and that was cool, but now they're

395
00:33:46.799 --> 00:33:51.599
going back. That's right, and
you can tag them off with back to

396
00:33:51.680 --> 00:34:15.320
the eighties radio y rockers and rollers
who are back with Slick Rick Jacobs.

397
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:20.519
That's true, this priest and it's
op of their latest album, nineteen eighty

398
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:23.480
three, Electric Guy. That's right, the Electric Eye and the sky is

399
00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:28.559
always looking at us. Another thing
looking at us? Does Scott win Chang?

400
00:34:28.840 --> 00:34:31.960
Are you aboard? Slick Rick Jacob
is out? This is the kind

401
00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:35.000

416
00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:38.480
Help us, help you. We're
talking about nineteen eighty five, and now

417
00:35:38.519 --> 00:35:43.920
we turn the table because now we're
gonna be talking about some of the songs

418
00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:47.599
that made that year incredible and change. I gotta tell you, nineteen eighty

419
00:35:47.599 --> 00:35:55.559
five was a pinnacle year in music
history in the United States and abroad because

420
00:35:55.719 --> 00:36:00.400
some of the most famous bands from
around the world brought some of the greatest

421
00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:07.639
hits that will forever go down in
history. You can hear these musical masterpieces

422
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:12.239
in movies from the eighties, from
the nineties, from the two thousands,

423
00:36:12.280 --> 00:36:15.239
and you know what, in the
future, when they do movies, you'll

424
00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:22.599
still hear these eighties songs in those
movies because they were so transcendent, and

425
00:36:22.679 --> 00:36:25.480
so I want to talk a little
bit about that. Like always, when

426
00:36:25.519 --> 00:36:29.679
we're talking about a certain year,
I want to take the time and talk

427
00:36:29.719 --> 00:36:34.159
about billboards. Hot ten from Billboard. That's a go to. We always

428
00:36:34.199 --> 00:36:37.960
have to go to Billboard or Rolling
Stone. I mean those were like the

429
00:36:37.159 --> 00:36:44.079
encyclopedias of concrete. Top ten,
top fifty, top twenty, top hundred.

430
00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:46.280
Correct, my brother, that's right, So let's kick it all off.

431
00:36:46.559 --> 00:36:52.239
Nineteen eighty five's Greatest Hits starting at
number ten is a song by Norwegian

432
00:36:52.320 --> 00:37:00.079
synth pop band Aha, who also
had you know what. Their video for

433
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:04.000
the song take on Me, which
is the song that we're going to be

434
00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:08.360
talking about, was way ahead of
its time. Nobody had ever seen a

435
00:37:08.440 --> 00:37:14.480
comic book come to life, and
that's animated, right kind of, and

436
00:37:14.719 --> 00:37:20.079
somebody from from real time go into
the mirror and go into this comic book

437
00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:25.159
world or animated pencil drawn world.
You know what that that video reminds me

438
00:37:25.239 --> 00:37:30.719
of. And you ever go down
somewhere, maybe the peer, or you

439
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:35.239
go to a carnival, or you
go to a street fair, and there's

440
00:37:35.480 --> 00:37:38.639
people that draw character, Yes,
the cacature of you. Yes, that's

441
00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:43.800
what I think of Whenever I see
that, I walk down the street and

442
00:37:43.840 --> 00:38:00.000
I go on me, oh,
I can't carry that next. That is

443
00:38:00.039 --> 00:38:06.000
an extremely, extremely difficult a tone
to carry. But it's a great song.

444
00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:09.760
Unfortunately some radio stations, and I'm
gonna mention it, why not our

445
00:38:09.840 --> 00:38:15.719
dear Los Angeles radio station k Earth
one oh one. It seems to think

446
00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:21.679
that that's the only AHA song that
they have. And I mean, don't

447
00:38:21.719 --> 00:38:23.639
get me wrong, I love it. I love take on Me. But

448
00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:29.760
when you hear it every hour,
I mean, come on, let's let's

449
00:38:29.840 --> 00:38:36.360
change it up. Is that not
the whole entire reason why Los Angeles FM

450
00:38:36.480 --> 00:38:39.719
radio in a hole has died?
It's not what it used to be.

451
00:38:39.960 --> 00:38:44.000
Yeah, And I'm I'm happy,
you know, I'm happy that people from

452
00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:49.320
the eighties still of course we listen
to that radio station. But you know,

453
00:38:49.440 --> 00:38:52.880
you you you gotta add more songs
to your repertoire. Oh, I

454
00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:58.920
agree, I agree, you know, I think terrestrial radio has suffered from

455
00:38:59.519 --> 00:39:01.840
give me the same old, same
old. It's like taking a ham sandwich

456
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:07.400
to work every day for twenty five
years. You know you're not gonna want

457
00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:10.320
ham sandwich. You know, the
only time you're gonna want Hams on Christmas.

458
00:39:10.320 --> 00:39:13.519
I want to Christmas hamm And if
you put it in the sandwich,

459
00:39:13.599 --> 00:39:16.159
I'm gonna punch somebody in the face. If I have to have Christmas ham

460
00:39:16.239 --> 00:39:20.559
sandwiches to New Year's, a lot
of people are gonna get punched in the

461
00:39:20.559 --> 00:39:23.840
face. So it's kind of like, that's kind of what to me,

462
00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:29.920
terrestrial radio has become a format.
It's not what it used to be.

463
00:39:30.119 --> 00:39:32.960
That's why I think what we believe
here at back to the eighties. Give

464
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:37.400
it old radio, old school radio. Yeah, you know, enlightening and

465
00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:42.599
entertain absolutely falling into you know what
I find funny really quick? My brother,

466
00:39:42.760 --> 00:39:45.960
you bring up Kaars, and man, I would if I could walk

467
00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:49.599
into the studio and punch you in
the face, I would just slap you

468
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:52.559
because you make me feel old.
Because when I remember listening to Kars in

469
00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:59.440
southern California, it was fifties,
oldiesties, dudes, ye, fifties and

470
00:39:59.559 --> 00:40:02.239
Maybes sixties. It was a lot
of motown, you know what I mean,

471
00:40:04.360 --> 00:40:09.320
The Supremes and Temptations, Otis Redding, you know, it was Jerry

472
00:40:09.360 --> 00:40:15.559
Lee Lewis, and it was Elvis. Now you're telling the aha is on

473
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:20.760
yeah. Can you believe next thing
you're they're playing quiet, Riot and craft

474
00:40:20.880 --> 00:40:24.800
like that. That's correct, that's
correct. They are playing all eighties music.

475
00:40:25.320 --> 00:40:31.679
Falling into number nine was from a
song recorded for the movie Vision Quest

476
00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:36.400
that wasn't released on March two,
nineteen eighty five. Yes, I hated

477
00:40:36.440 --> 00:40:43.960
that movie and it was a song
by Madonna called Crazy for You and you

478
00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:45.559
gotta add mad Brother. I mean, come on, it was Madonna and

479
00:40:45.639 --> 00:40:52.880
she was kicking out pop hits left
and right. Some were better than others,

480
00:40:52.960 --> 00:40:58.519
Some had some type of a better
musical arrangement. Some went out there

481
00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:02.039
and just sounded like number two on
the list that I'll go over in a

482
00:41:02.079 --> 00:41:07.800
bit. But it's crazy either way. Madonna was a She was a pioneer.

483
00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:10.719
Oh I give I give you props. I give her credit and props,

484
00:41:10.719 --> 00:41:15.559
and she was an innovator. How
many other artists have come out and

485
00:41:15.639 --> 00:41:21.119
tried to replicate her. It seems
like every time you've seen something in the

486
00:41:21.239 --> 00:41:24.440
nineties, somebody was trying to do
Madonna. You know, choreography with your

487
00:41:24.559 --> 00:41:31.400
dan scene and you're singing and trying
to give you stage production. She definitely

488
00:41:31.519 --> 00:41:37.000
changed pop music to what we see
nowadays. But I mean she was totally

489
00:41:37.039 --> 00:41:39.599
freaking hot. She was down tough, you know what I mean. She's

490
00:41:39.679 --> 00:41:43.239
kind of you know, she meant
business. She knew who she was.

491
00:41:43.719 --> 00:41:46.079
I give her a lot of props
on that she was sexual, which was

492
00:41:46.119 --> 00:41:51.719
like out of this freaking world sexuality
she brought to pop music. And you

493
00:41:51.800 --> 00:41:57.440
gotta remember, any person married to
Sean Penn had to be tough. Oh

494
00:41:57.519 --> 00:41:59.840
yeah, man, seanpen will knock
you in the mill. He'll put his

495
00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:02.639
you're done and go snack you outside
the freaking head. So Madonna she was

496
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:06.800
kind of that chick too, you
know when she came out with that sexy

497
00:42:06.840 --> 00:42:12.519
book. Yes, yeah, I
forgot all about what you had hair under

498
00:42:12.519 --> 00:42:17.119
your arms when those first pies came
out, But that's right. Falling into

499
00:42:17.239 --> 00:42:22.760
Number eight is a song by British
rock band The Dire Straits, the second

500
00:42:22.760 --> 00:42:27.400
track on their fifth album, which
was Brothers in Arms from nineteen eighty five.

501
00:42:27.480 --> 00:42:31.320
It was released Yes, it was
released as the album's second single on

502
00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:37.599
the twenty fourth of June Vertigo Records, and the song was money for Nothing

503
00:42:38.360 --> 00:42:44.599
and Sting sang on that song,
you know that I that I didn't know,

504
00:42:44.679 --> 00:42:47.760
but did you know that that song. There's no way that song would

505
00:42:47.800 --> 00:42:52.960
be written and accepted today because it
says something's in the lyrics. I mean,

506
00:42:52.960 --> 00:42:55.719
you got to look it up.
But you know, we as people

507
00:42:55.719 --> 00:43:00.159
who went through the seventies and eighties, we don't get hurt by some of

508
00:43:00.199 --> 00:43:02.360
those things. But now we live
in a society that gets hurt if you

509
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:07.679
call them, you know, not
nice. Oh no, he just said

510
00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:09.199
it. I'm not nice, and
oh my gosh, I have to sue

511
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:13.519
him now. I want to,
you know, I need counseling because the

512
00:43:13.559 --> 00:43:16.719
person told me I was not nice. Yeah, anyway, you know what's

513
00:43:16.719 --> 00:43:22.679
funny that? Yeah, we're talking
about what we're talking about. And the

514
00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:25.280
thing with Dire Straits. That was
a great album. My favorite song out

515
00:43:25.360 --> 00:43:29.639
that album was so Far Away from
You. I don't know if you've heard

516
00:43:29.679 --> 00:43:31.360
that album. That's a track out
there that I think you should listen to

517
00:43:31.719 --> 00:43:35.920
anybody out there if you want to
check out that album. That to me,

518
00:43:36.039 --> 00:43:40.559
that's a pretty good track. That
whole album I think is pretty epic,

519
00:43:40.679 --> 00:43:45.119
groundbreaking the styles that they change.
You know. Then Offler Brothers totally

520
00:43:45.159 --> 00:43:50.440
awesome, just as awesome as that
is. Number seven and number seven.

521
00:43:50.719 --> 00:43:52.960
I get a little surprise for everybody
because it's a song written. It's a

522
00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:59.000
song written by English pop rock Tears
for Fears. It was released on March

523
00:43:59.119 --> 00:44:04.800
eighteen, nineteen five, and it's
everybody wants to Rule the world. And

524
00:44:04.880 --> 00:44:07.480
this is back to the eighties when
we come back more music, talk to's

525
00:44:07.519 --> 00:45:04.679
got only Jang, welcome to There's
No Sun. We will smiled, help

526
00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:37.159
me to the sun, help me
sun reading and last more time so that

527
00:45:37.199 --> 00:46:52.320
we spading so sild to every mind
was I can't stand that I've never never

528
00:46:52.480 --> 00:47:52.400
made it, while that was cheers
for Fears. Everybody wants to rule the

529
00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:55.679
world. This is back to the
eighties. It's goind of chain here with

530
00:47:55.760 --> 00:48:00.559
you, and you know it's very
aproposal with everything that's going on today,

531
00:48:00.679 --> 00:48:05.039
Chang. And it's amazing to me
how so many songs and artists had the

532
00:48:05.199 --> 00:48:08.960
vision that were way ahead of their
own time in the eighties. Oh brother,

533
00:48:09.039 --> 00:48:16.039
I agree with you. And what's
so uncanny and unresting to a certain

534
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:23.360
degree is that song speaks magnitudes of
kind of the way we were going in

535
00:48:23.400 --> 00:48:30.320
the eighties in comparison to right now
everybody proclaiming self entitlement. We had a

536
00:48:30.360 --> 00:48:37.599
big push in the homosexual community.
The gay community was becoming a force to

537
00:48:37.599 --> 00:48:44.119
be reckoned with more people wanted to
be recognized and respected for being gay.

538
00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:50.119
We had a lot of the kind
of racial barriers starting to be lifted.

539
00:48:51.079 --> 00:48:55.280
Remember with the wall getting torn down
with Reagan, we started seeing a lot

540
00:48:55.320 --> 00:49:04.840
of pushback people wanting to be recognized
for their individualism. We also started seeing

541
00:49:05.679 --> 00:49:09.960
a pushback where people in general wanted
to be treated better in the workplace.

542
00:49:12.280 --> 00:49:15.800
That's I guess when we started getting
into people wanted healthcare, the same kind

543
00:49:15.800 --> 00:49:22.679
of retirement. And it's very ironic
because that song was kind of like the

544
00:49:22.719 --> 00:49:27.639
pillar of what we were going through
at that time, and it speaks magnitude

545
00:49:27.719 --> 00:49:32.000
because of now look at the ride
that we have in here in the States

546
00:49:32.039 --> 00:49:38.599
and amongst the world where generations are
starting to take place in wanting change and

547
00:49:39.039 --> 00:49:46.320
self entitlement. You see more forms
of kind of racial groups, multi racial

548
00:49:46.440 --> 00:49:52.960
group. So we're seeing all this
change in the world and people demanding to

549
00:49:52.079 --> 00:49:58.199
be recognized and heard that we forgot
that we are all one race, the

550
00:49:58.360 --> 00:50:06.440
human rate. So this push for
us to be self entitled and be redeemed

551
00:50:07.239 --> 00:50:10.800
greater than any other is the decay. And it's odd that you bring up

552
00:50:10.800 --> 00:50:15.880
this song because if you think about
it back in the eighties, we're in

553
00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:20.360
fast forward of the decay that we
started back in the eighties. Yeah,

554
00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:23.320
I'll give it with that. This
is this is absolute continuation. It's like

555
00:50:23.400 --> 00:50:30.280
the eighties two point zero on steroids, falling into number six. We got

556
00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:35.159
a song by American duo Holland Oates
from their twelfth studio album, Big Bamboom

557
00:50:35.199 --> 00:50:40.079
from nineteen eighty four. The song
out of Touch was released as the lead

558
00:50:40.199 --> 00:50:45.760
single from that same album from RCA
Records, and it was their last Billboard

559
00:50:45.800 --> 00:50:51.800
Hot one hundred number one single that
topped the charts. Out of Touch by

560
00:50:51.840 --> 00:50:58.280
Holland Oates. That was they were
a pretty good band. I watch Darryl's

561
00:50:58.360 --> 00:51:04.719
house on networks out here where he
has you know, other musicians come in

562
00:51:04.760 --> 00:51:07.199
and they chow down and then they
make music. They basically have a jam

563
00:51:07.239 --> 00:51:12.800
session. Yeah, they got the
chops man in Hallow notes. If you

564
00:51:12.920 --> 00:51:16.239
listen to some of the albums or
cassettes or CDs, whatever you have,

565
00:51:16.480 --> 00:51:22.679
material wise, you're gonna get into
not only the pop culture hits that were

566
00:51:22.679 --> 00:51:25.320
put on the radios that gave them
the success. You're gonna find a lot

567
00:51:25.360 --> 00:51:29.800
of good tracks of their words,
a lot of rhythm and blues, a

568
00:51:29.800 --> 00:51:34.440
lot of souls stuff like the Everly
Brothers. You know what I mean.

569
00:51:34.519 --> 00:51:43.199
Back into that realm. It's totally
way away from Air Supply, you know.

570
00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:45.440
Oh yeah, yeah, nothing nothing
to do with Air Supply. Ohthough,

571
00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:47.480
don't get me wrong. Air Supply
was a great band as well,

572
00:51:47.519 --> 00:51:52.599
but Hallow notes it's one of those. See. One of the biggest things

573
00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:57.760
they had in common was that the
majority of the songs on their albums were

574
00:51:57.840 --> 00:52:02.679
hits. Yeah, unlike any artists
of let's say, a different generation that

575
00:52:02.760 --> 00:52:07.239
we want to introduce the eighties too, that you get one hit and that's

576
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:10.559
it, and then they disappear into
thin air. That band who knows,

577
00:52:10.599 --> 00:52:15.400
they start fading away, fizzling away. Yeah, you know what I do.

578
00:52:15.519 --> 00:52:21.039
Remember back in the eighties the collaborations
with such acts where we had the

579
00:52:21.079 --> 00:52:24.960
pop go into rock. We had
the rock hand in hand with the rap,

580
00:52:25.000 --> 00:52:32.599
the hip hop. We had the
kind of punk rock ish music intertwined

581
00:52:32.639 --> 00:52:38.320
with pop culture pop music. So
I think back in the eighties it generated

582
00:52:38.760 --> 00:52:45.360
a lot of different styles a lot
of different textures and techniques because everybody was

583
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:49.719
more open back than to work with
each other, and music was so free.

584
00:52:49.719 --> 00:52:53.239
It was an expression. Yeah,
and it kind of helped pave the

585
00:52:53.360 --> 00:52:59.360
way to all the colorful expressions we
have in everyday life now. Yeah.

586
00:52:59.480 --> 00:53:02.800
Really, it was just so different. Following into number five, I know

587
00:53:02.840 --> 00:53:07.079
you remember this one because it's a
song written by Prince that originally appeared in

588
00:53:07.119 --> 00:53:13.320
his nineteen seventy nine self titled album. The most successful and best known version

589
00:53:13.440 --> 00:53:19.320
was recorded by R and B singer
Chaka Khan. I Feel great for you,

590
00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:22.880
Chaka Khan. She was great.
The chick had curves, she was

591
00:53:22.960 --> 00:53:27.199
sexy or those risks, just the
way she could move, the way she

592
00:53:27.199 --> 00:53:31.239
could carry those strong notes. Kind
of gospel rita Franklin style, but with

593
00:53:31.480 --> 00:53:36.559
more sex appeal, more naughtyis you
know what I mean? And it also

594
00:53:36.800 --> 00:53:39.519
won two Grammy Awards for Best R
and B Song. Yeah it did.

595
00:53:39.960 --> 00:53:44.199
I mean, Prince. You can't
go wrong with Prince. I mean Prince

596
00:53:44.320 --> 00:53:52.440
probably one of the greatest guitar playing, greatest performers on stage, greatest composers,

597
00:53:52.199 --> 00:53:58.320
greatest writers. Yeah, the dude
was phenomenal, was the King yeah,

598
00:53:58.440 --> 00:54:02.480
all around, complete full artist.
Oh yeah, it's a shame we

599
00:54:02.519 --> 00:54:07.079
don't have him nowadays. Yeah,
I'm glad twenty sixteen is long gone,

600
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:10.400
but it was a shame that we
lost so many in that year. Falling

601
00:54:10.400 --> 00:54:15.079
into number four is a band that
I know you will like because it's a

602
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:20.800
power ballad by the British American rock
band Foreigner, and it was released also

603
00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:25.480
in late November nineteen eighty four as
their fifth album, Agent Provocateur. The

604
00:54:25.599 --> 00:54:43.079
number one hit from this was I
Want to Know What Love Is, and

605
00:54:43.199 --> 00:54:45.840
it was a number one hit in
both the UK and in the US.

606
00:54:46.320 --> 00:54:51.679
I find this amazing that it was
a hit in both the States and the

607
00:54:51.880 --> 00:54:54.559
UK. It was everybody loved it. Yeah, I felt this is when

608
00:54:54.960 --> 00:55:00.440
Foreigner was like a foreigner, get
the hell out of O. There he

609
00:55:00.519 --> 00:55:04.199
is, there he is. You
have softened up and become so weak.

610
00:55:04.599 --> 00:55:08.400
So you're trying to tell me you
didn't like that. Oh I knew it.

611
00:55:08.559 --> 00:55:12.800
Oh I want to know what Love
Is. It's a great song.

612
00:55:13.559 --> 00:55:16.519
I want you to show me,
Yes, I want you to show me

613
00:55:16.639 --> 00:55:22.119
the door to the concert hall.
If I was attending and you played that

614
00:55:22.159 --> 00:55:24.679
song, I don't have to put
up with us aggression. I don't.

615
00:55:27.119 --> 00:55:30.280
That's not the kind of song that
I'm gonna hold my lover's hand and put

616
00:55:30.320 --> 00:55:32.559
a lighter up into the sky.
That is a great song, my friend,

617
00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:36.639
and I'm sorry you don't like it. But falling into number two is

618
00:55:36.639 --> 00:55:38.280
a song that maybe, hey,
I don't know, maybe you'll like this

619
00:55:38.320 --> 00:55:45.039
one better because number two for nineteen
eighty five was a song recorded by Madonna

620
00:55:45.159 --> 00:55:49.320
for her second studio album, Like
a Virgin, and in fact the song

621
00:55:49.559 --> 00:56:00.199
was lack of Virgin. Oh man, yeah, I love this song.

622
00:56:00.280 --> 00:56:05.159
I love the video. I loved
her and this I used to want to

623
00:56:05.199 --> 00:56:07.239
go to. I used to go
to Hollywood looking for Wanna Madonna. I

624
00:56:07.320 --> 00:56:10.920
used to cruise what Your Boulevard just
to get me a Wanna Madonna and the

625
00:56:12.039 --> 00:56:15.440
Wanna Madonna's Oh yeah, man,
they'll share bubble gum with you if you

626
00:56:15.480 --> 00:56:17.599
know what I'm talking about. Yeah, you know what I got admit,

627
00:56:17.639 --> 00:56:22.679
though, although the song is a
great song, and the video and her

628
00:56:22.719 --> 00:56:28.119
of course at the beginning the instrumentation, they used the arrangements. Every time

629
00:56:28.159 --> 00:56:30.880
I hear it, I and there's
something about it that it's just it's gotta

630
00:56:30.920 --> 00:56:36.960
go it's gotta go. No.
I felt the same way about the musical

631
00:56:37.039 --> 00:56:40.360
content. My whole thing was like, Wow, great lyrics and she's hot,

632
00:56:44.599 --> 00:56:45.519
that's it. I was a sophomore. What do you think I was

633
00:56:45.559 --> 00:56:49.519
thinking? I was thinking through the
head that has no brain. All right,

634
00:56:49.599 --> 00:56:52.800
So here we go with the number
one song of nineteen eighty five.

635
00:56:53.400 --> 00:57:00.639
Let's do it from the pop ballad
performance. This dynamic duo whom you claim

636
00:57:00.760 --> 00:57:29.239
to have their underwear careless, whisper
George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley wham it's front

637
00:57:29.239 --> 00:57:31.880
of their album make It Big,
By the way, that was the number

638
00:57:31.880 --> 00:57:35.800
one song nineteen eighty five. Yeah, here it comes, here, it

639
00:57:35.840 --> 00:57:39.000
comes, go ahead. What were
they referring exactly? They decided to call

640
00:57:39.039 --> 00:57:45.679
it naked big. I think they
were referring to their career to make it

641
00:57:45.760 --> 00:57:49.760
Thank you, Sam or mam.
What would you say in that scenario?

642
00:57:50.559 --> 00:57:55.280
Choose life? My testicles sit in
choose because yes, I did make myself

643
00:57:55.719 --> 00:58:02.880
some skibby whippies out of a choose
life that a girl left in my bedroom

644
00:58:02.960 --> 00:58:08.079
when she left me abruptly through the
window. Choose life, and I will

645
00:58:08.159 --> 00:58:15.320
say nothing but mad respect for the
late great George Michael, but no thank

646
00:58:15.320 --> 00:58:19.599
you, ma'am or Sam. When
it comes to Wham Tiscano, I'm afraid

647
00:58:19.639 --> 00:58:24.480
that you probably still wear a middrift
cut off choose live shirt and you probably

648
00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:34.920
wear i'd say, some attractive golfing
white shorts with white booty socks with ball

649
00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:40.039
fuzzies on the back of their pink
and your belt is made of nylon like

650
00:58:40.079 --> 00:58:45.119
a stretch belt with the same color
as your booties. Yes, and I

651
00:58:45.159 --> 00:58:51.440
want to say that the lettering on
your white golfer cap is also pink,

652
00:58:51.800 --> 00:58:59.199
and your wife is dressed in a
pink ensemble similar to yours. That's what

653
00:58:59.280 --> 00:59:02.039
I think a hater in you.
You know what tis kinda We brought up

654
00:59:02.639 --> 00:59:07.840
the fact of a live aid and
you know what, what more fitting way

655
00:59:08.159 --> 00:59:13.239
to remember that day than to hear
a song from a great band that day

656
00:59:13.840 --> 00:59:17.320
that totally took control of the audience
and its claim to be number one in

657
00:59:17.440 --> 00:59:23.280
rock and roll, A band no
other than the Queen with the late great

658
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:30.239
Freddie Mercury. Ladies and gentlemen,
put your ears to the box and take

659
00:59:30.360 --> 01:00:01.840

Ay back in nineteen eighty five.
We've been discussing that and other things.

672
01:03:15.199 --> 01:03:17.800
You were back to the eighties.
Chang here to Skane. I think it's

673
01:03:17.840 --> 01:03:22.559
getting about that time of the day
where we have to go on our way.

674
01:03:22.639 --> 01:03:25.559
It might correct. Yeah, Unfortunately, you know we didn't have time

675
01:03:25.559 --> 01:03:30.079
to cover every single thing. So
this nineteen eighty five has turned into nineteen

676
01:03:30.119 --> 01:03:35.199
eighty five Part one. Next Friday, tune into nineteen eighty five Part two.

677
01:03:36.000 --> 01:03:39.679
This week, we wrote a post
that asked everybody to go ahead and

678
01:03:39.679 --> 01:03:45.119
give us some show ideas, and
I do want to let you know that

679
01:03:45.199 --> 01:03:49.599
Beverly Blevins Staley said that she would
like to hear a show on everything Duran

680
01:03:49.719 --> 01:03:52.840
Duran. So Beverly, we're going
to do our best or bring you some

681
01:03:52.880 --> 01:03:58.280
information on Duran Duran. I'm hoping. I know I wrote to you and

682
01:03:58.320 --> 01:04:00.039
said that next week, but I
really didn't lie that we weren't going to

683
01:04:00.119 --> 01:04:04.519
have so much time to do nineteen
eighty five. So stick with us because

684
01:04:04.599 --> 01:04:08.480
Back to the Eighties has a lot
more. As a matter of fact,

685
01:04:08.679 --> 01:04:13.400
we have a very famous athlete from
the Olympics that's going to be joining us

686
01:04:13.599 --> 01:04:16.559
by phone. He called this morning
and said, you know what, I

687
01:04:16.679 --> 01:04:18.800
listened to Back to the Eighties all
the time and I want to be on

688
01:04:18.840 --> 01:04:23.239
the show. And I said,
well, okay, sure, why not?

689
01:04:24.079 --> 01:04:28.639
And well he was born in nineteen
eighty five, so that's what we're

690
01:04:28.679 --> 01:04:31.639
going to bring him in. He
is an eighties baby, and we're going

691
01:04:31.679 --> 01:04:40.880
