Songs For Saturday: Modern English, Weezer & the Go-Go's


1. Bat Head Phones secured to head? Check!

2. Volume cranked up? Check! 

Move 'em out! Time for another edition of Songs For Saturday! 

First up is a classic song from the 1980s with a 2020 quarantine twist. 

It's Modern English with a 'round the world video hooked up performance of "I'll Met With You".  




Modern English still sounds good as they did back in the day.

But damn, they look old! How did that happen? 

Back in the 1980's, you couldn't escape Toto and their classic song, "Africa".  For today's Songs For Saturday, we have a 21st century version of the song by Weezer. 


And yes, that is Weird Al Yankovic up front. And if you weren't sure before, the accordion gives it away. 

OK, here's is a 1980's song from the actual 1980's. 

From a performance on German TV in 1982 (before the fall of the frickin' Berlin wall), it's the Go-Go's with "We've Got the Beat".  


I hope you've enjoyed today's selection of tunes here on Songs For Saturday. 

Until next time, remember to be good to one another and to always keep the music alive.
