Summary
With the state of the world right now, today I’m going to take you back to the good old days. Nostalgia overload. We're going to celebrate a group of songs that freeze a specific moment in time, preserving it for the future, much like the expression time in a bottle. One of the songs, Escape (The Pina Colada Song), began as a nod to the golden movie era of Humphrey Bogart, before the singer Rupert Holmes changed the lyrics by blurting out a random phrase in the middle of the recording, and it worked. The song became a smash. We also have the most misunderstood song of the decade: Benny Mardones's “Into the Night." Everyone thinks it’s deeply disturbing, but it’s actually heart-warming when you hear the true meaning of it. Plus, the famous actress Faye Dunaway who walked out on her rockstar husband and inspired the ultimate rock revenge song Love Stinks. Plus, the biggest ripoff of the year Steal Away by Robbie Dupree that made several prominent musicians livid because it was so blatant in its theft. Some thought it was the exact same song with different lyrics. Find out what happened.
