This is actually something that bothered me slightly (and I emphasize slightly) in Guardians of the Galaxy because wow I hated most of those songs. I was especially irritated at having to sit through "Escape (The Piña Colada Song)" because I lived through the time that it was constantly on the radio. However, it's not like they were trying to set a serious mood, and I still enjoyed the movie a lot. It's just that the apparent intended dynamic of "Oh wow, listen to all these nostalgic old hits" did not work for me.

It doesn't bother me in Stranger Things though. I honestly think they're more careful about picking the songs, so that they fit the scenes better, but that may just be me. I'll admit I like 80s music a lot more than 70s music.

It's interesting how that dynamic changes depending on the audience, yeah. Like, the target demographic definitely has no memories of Pina Colada as a song that's not an oldie already. And I think that gives the song a certain, like, ironic ridiculousness that the movie takes advantage of - but that feeling might be totally different for you.
