Re: What song do you wish would make a big resurgence?

As a Bowie fan, this whole post made me wince. But here goes.

* Let's Dance was a hugely commercial album for Bowie and it was released in 1983, a mere three years before this season was set. He wasn't exactly an obscure artist at the time, even if looking back his mid-80s albums aren't considered his best.

* Labyrinth came out in 1986, and while it wasn't a huge success at the time, it's a cult flick now. Given the context of Stranger Things, a show that cherrypicks the iconic stuff from that time period in which it was set, it seems like a missed opportunity. And speaking of context...

* Choosing the soundtrack for a show like Stranger Things isn't just about what was a big hit at the time, it's also taking modern audiences into consideration. And it's hard to imagine any 80s themed show without SOME Bowie in it, IMO. He was a big star before the 80s, he was a big star during the 80s and now he's an icon. Obviously I'm biased because I'm a fan, but inclusion seems like a given to me.

Yes to all of it! He was big in 80s. And Let's Dance could be fun in a show for example

I do not care enough for Stranger Things though
