Relive the magic of 80s pop-funk-inspired music through Larry Dane’s party anthem “It Was the 80’s”

A masterpiece that rightfully shouts, “Blame it on the era,” Larry Dane’s “It Was the 80’s” is a retro-powered, nostalgic pop-funk celebration of the wildest decade as this artist takes you on a high-energy flashback sonic drive that is overflowing with pop-funk charisma, infectious grooves, and a hook that refuses to leave your head even after the jam is no more. This jam is a time capsule of pure 80’s nostalgia—a sonic rollercoaster through an era of big hair, neon dreams, and unforgettable party scenes.

Inspired by the artist’s own larger-than-life experiences growing up in the 80s, the track is a tribute to wild spring break escapades, legendary nights at the Jersey Shore, and the carefree, adrenaline-fueled energy that defined the decade. With the catchy chorus “It was the 80’s, life so so crazy, and we were out of our minds,” Dane captures the essence of an era where everything felt limitless, and every night had the potential to be legendary.

While listening to this track, I couldn’t help but feel transported to Black Box’s era of “Everybody Everybody” thanks to the funky basslines, shimmering synths, and the unstoppable dancefloor pulse “It Was the 80’s” exudes.

This is the kind of track that makes you want to throw on some leg warmers, dust off the cassette player, and let loose like it’s 1989!

For those who lived it, and those who wish they had, Larry Dane’s “It Was the 80’s” is the ultimate party anthem—a feel-good, neon-lit celebration of a time when music, fashion, and fun knew no bounds.

Now available on all streaming platforms. Press play, turn it up, and relive the magic of 80’s-inspired pop-funk music right through the speakers!

Check out Larry’s impressive catalog as he seeks to make a lasting career, one sonically beautiful and amazing jam at a time.
