    The 80s—1880s that is. A simple melody that still sounds beautiful in modern times.

    I don’t listen to new music too much. But when I heard Lizzo I thought, “ok. Now that there? That’s real fresh man. I can dig it Daddy-O. Gimme some more of that new stuff.”

    I don’t like many songs from this decade (2010s), save for fun ones like this gem. I probably could’ve used this in the last round with its throwback cameos. Extra kudos if you can guess where the 16-bit sound effect comes from at the very end…
