The era of Post Punk, what the suits insist on calling New Wave because they hated Punk and everything about Punk, was a strange time in American music. Some of the music is just awful, but some of it is interesting in a way that a lot of 1960s and '70s rock wasn't.
This is another song that comes to us by way of WXRT's Saturday Morning Flashback. Some stats from 1979, which was the year in question. at the end of January.
- A gallon of gas was 86¢
- Inflation was 11%
This song is "Lucky Number" by Lene Lovich from her 1978 debut album Stateless, though it was released as a single in 1979
