Music Junkies Podcast

Ever wondered how a stroll down memory lane with 80s music could stir up more than just fond recollections? Join me, Annette Smith, as I sit down with Harvey, the charismatic voice behind "Love is Black" and "Men Are the Prize," for a vivid trek back to the era of synthesizers, leg warmers, and MTV. We tap into the pulse of a decade that revolutionized the music industry, influenced fashion, and left an indelible mark on pop culture, all while spinning tracks that will surely hit you with a wave of nostalgia.

From "Moonlighting" to Madonna, Harvey unveils the tapestry of his 80s-inspired playlist, igniting conversations about the music videos that shaped our viewing habits and the TV shows that had us glued to our sets with eager anticipation each week. We wax nostalgic over the communal experiences lost to the modern binge-watching culture and the icons that graced our screens and boom boxes. As we traverse through the landscape of 80s entertainment, you'll be enamored by the tales of shoulder pads, big hair bands, and the magnetic pull of Columbia House Records deals that were too good to be true.

Ending on a note that's both poignant and personal, Harvey and I reflect on the emotional gravity of songs by artists like Eric Clapton and Bonnie Raitt, offering a window into how these melodies can be both a source of solace and a soundtrack to our lives. It's a heartfelt conversation that celebrates the beloved 80s and embodies the enduring power of music to connect us across time. So, whether you're here to relive your glory days or to understand what made the 80s tick, this episode promises to be an auditory embrace from a decade that continues to resonate with us all.
