Rod Stewart - Young Turks / Song of the day #7

Song of the day #7

When thinking of the 80s, what do you think of? Too much hairspray, the extensive use of synthesizers, everyone wearing puffy windbreakers, walking around with a Walkman or the music? The 80s were an excellent era for music. We had the birth of classic hip-hop. Metal became a big thing. And pop-music created some of the best songs to date. When I think of music that embodies the 80s. I think of Young Turks by Rod Stewart. He wrote some great songs during his career. And although Young Turks is often overlooked because of Maggie May and Do Ya Think I’m Sexy. This tune is THE Rod Stewart song for me. For me, it sounds and feels like the 80s. The happy, upbeat feeling that nothing could go wrong combined with synthesizers makes you feel untouchable. On Saturday, that is precisely what you need. An encouraging push to get your weekend started. So enjoy the sun. Go to that party, meet with friends or just lounge around the house.

So enjoy the song, day, and rest of the weekend.
