Are the 80s back?

From The Weekend , 11:05 am on 1 January 2022

We're taking a little jaunt back to the 1980s.  Have you noticed a bit of a renaissance of the music of the time? Some of those great hits are being re-mixed and getting lots of play in the clubs and pubs. Anna noticed even at her daughters 21st this year. Why are young people gravitating to NZ music of the 80s? We explore the question and play some hits from the period.
