On Your FM Dial: 1981 - Our Picks

from Pop Culture Preservation Society · host Pop Culture Preservation Society

Last week we gave you a front-row seat to the 1982 Grammys, and this week we’re giving you an inside look at who we each were in 1981 and the songs from that year that meant the most to us … and why. Who thought “Too Much Time on My Hands” was the key to her popularity? Who was a hopeless romantic lip-synching “Endless Love” to a mystery “man” when she was only 12? And for which of us did “The Best of Times” sadly mean the opposite?
