It's time, once again, for #abftp! The next two hours are powered by ChatGPT. Top hits of the 80's? 80's one hit wonders? We asked, it responded.
Listen in on 88.7fm in Indy or online @WICRonline.org
Beat It was always my favorite from the Thriller album... mainly because it didn't involve werewolf makeup and teeth.
Plus that sick Eddie VH solo.... that wasn't recorded in one take, sadly.
Lots of good tunes from She's So Unusual - Cyndi's debut album!
I know a lot of friends who absolutely hate Walking on Sunshine. I still think it's a banger from K and the Waves.
One of the better lyrics - even though the song is creepy AF..
"How my poor heart aches with every step you take."
One couple told Sting that they loved the song and it was the main song played at their wedding.
His response? "Good Luck!"
A candidate for #ratetheremake, Tainted Love was a Gloria Jones song from the 60's before Soft Cell got a hold of it.
I just love that this is Slash now.
Top 5 best guitar solos ever. Don't at me.
Good rhythm guitar, too!
I know... it's overplayed... but the A.I. told me to.
We gotta hold on to what we've got... it doesn't make a difference if we're naked or not.
That baseline, tho!
There is now a "Whitney" channel on Sirius/XM. My husband locks it on that channel every time he's in the car.
"When I look back now... the summer seemed to last forever."
and
"And now the times are changin'. Look at everything that's come and gone. Sometimes when I play that old six-string. I think about you, wonder what went wrong.
More lyric greatness.
Now it's time for an hour of one hit wonders... that... aren't one hit wonders.
The biggest tragedy about the "Take on Me" filter on TikTok was that nobody acted out the music video. I only saw ONE account with a person throwing himself against a door frame!
A Flock of Seagulls is more than just I Ran (So Far Away) even though it's usually the only song played by them on the radio.
So Pop Muzik came up as an 80's one hit wonder, - and that's correct... but technically it was released in the late 70's... so... does that count?
"We're taking an A.I. that was probably programmed by VH1 and asked it what are some 80's one hit wonders."
Don't You (Forget About Me) is quickly approaching the toasty list number one spot, for me.
That damned freaky cow!
Sweet Dreams are made of these... who am I do dis a brie?
This video sticks in my memory.
ChatGPT told me to include Falco in this One Hit Wonders show... but Falco is NOT a OHW! Besides Rock Me Amadeus, he had another hit with Vienna Calling.
A fun tune about nuclear warfare to end the show!
