About this listen
Late May of 1988 carried a certain electricity. School was winding down, finals still loomed, and the promise of summer freedom sat just within reach. MTV dictated the trends, cassette singles rattled in glove boxes, and even a slice of pizza with those red plastic cups felt like part of the soundtrack.
This week’s countdown rewinds to May 28, when pop, rock, and R&B collided in equal measure and every hook seemed to match the season. From Friday night escapes to Sunday night reflections, these 25 tracks painted the soundtrack of a moment when everything felt possible.
