*SPOILERS FOR SEASON 4 PART 1 OF STRANGER THINGS BELOW!*
Stranger Things has always amplified great 1980s nostalgia. The clothes, the hair, and yes, especially the music. And while we’ve enjoyed the tracks they’ve featured over the years—who could forget Max and El shopping to Madonna’s “Material Girl” or Dustin and Suzie’s duet to “Never Ending Story”?—season 4 might take the cake thanks to a new villain who can only be taken down through music. Stranger Things 4 is giving us another reason to listen to bops like Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” along with other fun tracks that’ll be on repeat for the next several weeks. Get your playlists ready, because you’re going to want to add all these songs after bingeing the season.
