40 years ago today, Pet Shop Boys hit #1 in America with "West End Girls."
Inspired by Grandmaster Flash, T.S. Eliot, and London's class divide.
The Guardian calls it the greatest UK #1 of all time. Hard to argue.
The Weather Channel launched a retro forecast mode called RetroCast.
Old graphics. Smooth jazz. Local on the 8s.
It's real. It's free. It goes hard.

On this day in 1985, WrestleMania I went down at Madison Square Garden.
Hogan. Mr. T. Piper. Liberace. Muhammad Ali. Cyndi Lauper.
Vince McMahon bet the company on one night and changed pop culture forever.

On this day in 1983, during the taping of Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever, Michael Jackson stepped out for a solo performance of "Billie Jean" that would effectively end the analog era of performance. Clad in a black sequined jacket and a single rhinestone glove, Michael didn't just perform a song, he debuted a physical impossibility.
This wasn't just a dance move; it was the moment Michael Jackson detached from the Motown legacy and launched into a solo stratosphere no artist has touched since. It turned "Billie Jean" from a hit into a myth. ๐คฉ
She nails it again. All you liberal โelbows up crowdโ please stop acting like victims. Canada broke long before Trump showed up.
