This Week in 80’s History!

Posted on October 7, 2022

It’s that time of the week! Time to check in on what was going down this week in 80’s history! It was on this week in:

1980 – “Another One Bites the Dust” by Queen would hit the #1 spot on the Billboard charts and would stay there for the month of October.

1981 – Get Lucky, the second album from Loverboy was released. It would reach the #7 spot on the Billboard charts much thanks to the mega hit Working for the Weekend.

1986 – Double Dare premiered on Nickelodeon and I don’t know about you, but I grew up wanting to take the physical challenge.
