It’s 9 a.m., I’m wearing Beavis & Butthead pajama pants, making out with my fourth can of Diet Coke, and unironically listening to the Pretty In Pink soundtrack. The Danny Hutton Hitters do a cover of Nik Kershaw’s “Wouldn’t It Be Good”* and of course I had to track down Nik’s video which is as overstuffed with 80s trash as I remembered. It’s a great kickstart to your morning, if only because—even if you’re wrapped in cheesy special effects—you’re still dressed better than he is.
* Trust me, you know the words.**
** This is a song, much like “True” by Spandau Ballet or pretty much anything by the Psychedelic Furs that you HAVE to sing with an exaggerated British accent.
