Welcome back to I Completed 80s Music! It's me, the 80s Mixtaper, ready to guide you through the glittering world of 80s tunes. Imagine if the spooky librarian from Ghostbusters invited you to boogie instead of morphing into a ghastly ghoul. No proton packs needed, just your dancing shoes!
In this episode, we dive into the last chart of 1979, exploring deep cuts and hot hits. Links to the playlists are below!
First up, we celebrate the ultimate diva duel: Barbra Streisand and Donna Summer's "No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)." A disco anthem that topped the Billboard Hot 100, this track is a rollercoaster of big hair and glitter, produced by disco gods Giorgio Moroder and Gary Klein.
Next, we slow things down with The Three Degrees' "My Simple Heart," a soulful ballad that hits all the right notes. Released in 1979, this song reflects a simpler time when disco balls twinkled like stars, and platform shoes were all the rage.
Then, we turn up the heat with The Gibson Brothers' "Que Sera Mi Vida," a Europop explosion that sold over 5 million copies worldwide. This track is a disco delight, bringing energy and joy to dance floors everywhere.
We also explore The Police's "Walking on the Moon," a reggae-influenced gem that rocketed to number one in the UK and Ireland. With its poetic lyrics and space-themed music video, this song is a testament to the band's musical genius.
And of course, we can't forget "Rapper's Delight" by The Sugarhill Gang, the first rap song to become a commercial hit. This groundbreaking track laid the foundation for hip-hop culture and influenced countless artists.
Finally, we wrap up with a touch of Christmas magic: Paul McCartney's "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time." This festive anthem celebrates the joy and togetherness of the holiday season, making it a timeless classic.
Join us next time for Playlist 4 as we dive into the first number one of the 80s and continue our journey through the best songs of the decade.
