"Crush" by Jennifer Paige

“Crush” became a surprise hit for the previously unknown Jennifer Paige in the fall of 1998. Before her album was even released, she was out on the road, performing the song on television in support of her newfound fame. Unfortunately, she was never able to match the heights of the meteoric rise of her debut single. Our Patreon supporters demanded it, so this week, Matt and I dive into this iconic pop song, and we might solve the mystery (or rewrite history) of why Jennifer wasn’t able to repeat her success.

"Catch Me (I'm Falling)" by Pretty Poison

"Catch Me (I'm Falling)" by Pretty Poison

Do you remember the 1987 movie Hiding Out, in which Jon Cryer stars as a state’s witness who pretends to be a high school student to avoid getting killed by the mob? Probably not. Chances are that you DO remember the breakout song from the movie though — Pretty Poison’s “Catch Me (I’m Falling)”. This dance-pop hit cracked the Billboard Top 10 and was an MTV staple, but the group never even sniffed the success of this single again. Our Patreon voted for us to discuss this one, and we’d never let them down…so are you ready boy? Here we come! If you like the show, be sure to rate, review, and subscribe.

"Save Tonight" by Eagle-Eye Cherry (w/Paul Menotiades)

In 1997, a slick pop song from a Swedish actor-turned-musician cracked the Top 5 on the Billboard charts, lodging itself firmly onto grocery store and doctor’s office playlists for decades to come. We’re joined this week by One Hit Thunder veteran Paul Menotiades to discuss Eagle-Eye Cherry’s “Save Tonight”. Will Paul be able to stop us from throwing BLUNDER on Eagle-Eye’s very unique name?

"Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" by Looking Glass (f/PJ Caruso)

"Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" by Looking Glass (f/PJ Caruso)

Did Looking Glass pretty much CREATE the yacht rock genre by writing a song about a man choosing his love of the sea over the love of a woman? “Brandy (You’re A Fine Girl)” made it all the way to the top of the Billboard charts in 1972, and the song stayed in the public consciousness ever since…except in the instance of this week’s guest PJ Caruso, who somehow didn’t know this song until he heard it in Guardians of the Galaxy. It’s hard to fathom how this is possible, but we’ll try to figure it out in this week’s episode. If you like the show, be sure to rate, review, and subscribe.

"Cars" by Gary Numan (f/Matt Gondek)

"Cars" by Gary Numan (f/Matt Gondek)

Synth pioneer Gary Numan was overwhelmingly bashed by critics upon his surge to the top of the UK charts in the early 80s. Music writers may not have been ready for Numan’s futuristic sound, but fans surely were. By the time he decided to take a hiatus from touring, he was doing multiple nights at Wembley Arena, not to mention opening doors for acts such as The Human League, Depeche Mode, and OMD. This week, we’re joined by artist Matt Gondek to dive into all things Numan, especially his new wave classic “Cars”. If you like the show, be sure to rate, review, and subscribe.

"Lullaby" by Shawn Mullins

"Lullaby" by Shawn Mullins

In the Fall of 1998, Shawn Mullins took the radio waves by storm with “Lullaby” — an unforgettable song about the woes of a young girl in Hollywood. With its spoken word verses and falsetto-laden choruses, the song’s meteoric rise on the charts rivaled the likes of Britney and Celine, cementing itself into our collective subconscious for decades to come. This week, we take a look at Mullins’ career to decide if he really dug his way into our Soul’s Core. If you like the show, be sure to rate, review, and subscribe.

"She Blinded Me with Science" by Thomas Dolby (f/Erik Johnson)

"She Blinded Me with Science" by Thomas Dolby (f/Erik Johnson)

For some people, Thomas Dolby might be considered only a blip on the 80s music radar — the wild-haired, bespectacled Englishman with the song where someone yells “SCIENCE!” The more knowledgable music connoisseurs, however, know very well how much influence this new wave icon had and continues to have on legions of electronic music artists. This week, we’re joined by Huffamoose drummer Erik Johnson to discuss the long-term impact Dolby has had on music, the unforgettable music video for “She Blinded Me With Science”, and we even dive into Erik’s personal recollections from when Huffamoose played the main stage at Woodstock ’94.
