Welcome back to I Completed 80s Music with your host, the 80s Mixtaper! In this episode, we embark on a nostalgic journey through the first seven tracks of Playlist 2, finally diving into the last top 40 chart of 1979. Get ready for a mix of legendary hits and hidden gems that defined an era.
We kick off with Lionel Richie and the Commodores' soulful ballad "Still," an underrated masterpiece that narrowly missed the top 40. Then, we groove to Fleetwood Mac's "Sarah," a hauntingly beautiful track from their experimental album Tusk.
Next, we celebrate Bob Geldof and the Boomtown Rats with "Diamond Smiles," a song that blends rock and new wave with lyrical depth. The Nolans bring the disco vibes with "I'm in the Mood for Dancing," a party anthem that remains timeless.
Diana Ross takes center stage with "It's My House," a declaration of independence and confidence. We also revisit the charming novelty hit "The Sparrow" by The Ramblers, a tune that captured the hearts of many in 1979.
Finally, we end with Robin Scott's "Moonlight and Muzak," a new wave gem that comments on the rise of Muzak and the quest for authenticity in a commercialized world.
Join us as we relive the magic of these tracks and the stories behind them. Don't forget to follow the podcast and send your musical memories to completed80s@aol.com. Until next time, keep the music playing and the memories alive!
