1987 releases
30 Day Song Challenge: Day 16 – A Song From the Year You Were Born
We need to talk about how much I love this song… How did I not know it was released the year I was born until I looked up 1987 hits for this post?!
INXS: “Need You Tonight”
Weekly Focus: Songs About Halloween, Day Two
Ministry — “(Every Day Is) Halloween,” from the album Twelve Inch Singles (1987).
Note: I know this song was originally released as a single in 1984, but the earliest mention of it on an actual record is the aforementioned Twelve Inch Singles. And no, the track is not specifically about the day of Halloween… For many people, however, Halloween is a lifestyle, so it still fits the bill.
