Hey! Remember the 80's?

Which songs still hold up today, which songs should be left in the 80's, and which ones are hidden gems? We'll cover the well-known hits from the decade (Ghostbusters, anyone?), and even songs that you haven't heard in 30 years (paging Karla Bonoff). Dust off your Members Only jacket, crack open a Pepsi Free, and join us for segments like "Just a Bit Outside" and "Coming Around Again" and more!

Episode 188
Episode 188: In our look at (almost) each of the years of the 1980's, Joe and Kari are up to Episode 188, which means it's time to check out an event from 1988; the year Celine Dion sang the winning song in the Eurovision contest. While the song "Ne partez pas sans moi" might not ring any bells, it's a song that led to Celine becoming the international superstar that we now know and love.
Inspired by Celine, HRT80s highlights some of the "BEST" Canadian Songs of the 80s, as determined by the CBC, including tunes from The Parachute Club, Lee Aaron, Red Rider, and Toronto, among others. Let's raise a glass to the Great White North!
