About this listen

By the fall of 1987, pop had muscle, rock had polish, and everything on the radio felt bigger than life. The mall was buzzing with Tiffany’s voice, MTV flickered in every living room, and the mixtape had become a declaration of identity. From neon-lit romance to full-volume rebellion, this week’s countdown captures a moment when we were all growing louder, bolder, and just a little more certain of who we were becoming.

Pull on that worn denim jacket, pop in a cassette, and join us for a rewind through one of the most electric autumns of the decade.
