About This Track
The track namechecks a number of 1980s icons, such as Ronald Reagan, orbital satellites, skinny leather ties, Don Johnson, Miami Vice, M&M’s, Michael Jackson, Commodore 64s, Soap, Rocky, Cherry Coke, Mr. T, Twisted Sister, MTV, Iron Maiden, 7 Up, Bananarama, The Breakfast Club, Huey Lewis, Top Gun, shoulder pads, David Hasselhoff, glam metal, Bill Cosby, the Rubiks Cube, Dynasty, Moon Boots, Devo, Barber Curls, Poltergeist, Barbie (alluding to Aqua’s signature song Barbie Girl from 1997), and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
Upon international release of the single, the group decided to change the line “When M&M was just a snack and Michael Jackson’s skin was black” from the original Danish release to “When M&M was just a snack and Arnie told us I’ll be back”. They decided on this, out of respect to Jackson, who died only a month after the single was released.
