For this years Cache Bash in West Bend, I am doing a 12 part series called "80's One Hit Wonders"
When I posted on Facebook about it, there was a big response of people trying to guess the 12 songs
There were a lot of guesses that weren't on the list.
I have decided to expand the series beyond the Cache Bash.
This is the 3rd in the "warm up" cache.
The Escape Club were a London band consisting of Trevor Steel (vocals), John Holliday (guitar), Johnnie Christo (bass) and Milan Zekavica (drums). This song distinguished them as the only British group to have charted #1 in the US while never charting at all in the UK.
This song was very much ingrained in 1988. That's why they were "headin' for the nineties." Also, the line "she's so mean but I don't care; I love her eyes and her wild, wild hair" probably refers to punk rock women of the era, who would have a tough attitude and sport green spiked mohawks.
"Waiting for the big boom" was probably a reference to Cold War paranoia and the fear of nuclear war.
Thanks again to jspleva for another exclusively designed cache container!
