I totally binged season 4 from 'Stranger Things' and now I am one of those people who can't wait for season 5 to reach. Normally I don't get caught up a lot in a series too much, but this time I really found that the Duffer brothers used music to enhance the series.
Spoiler Alert:
I mean Max running while being lifted and hearing Kate Bush 'And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God and get him to swap our places' is the moment of the year me I would say. The image in total was just complete.

But I was sucked into the typical sound of the 80's synths. Wobbely, dated but so cool sometimes!
Fenix - Stranger Things Theme
Whenever the intro tune is playing and the image of 'Skip Intro' arrives here we always wonder why on earth anyone would skip this intro. It is so full, bombastic, wondering for more. And this is the original song, but admittingly...the completing during the intro is even better than this one as you can hear here underneith
Especially with the fading beat in the end. In the other seasons you get a blast here with whatever season you are in and that makes the sound even thicker. Oh come one, this one is waited to be used as an intro for a techno set, which will surely happen (at least I hope so!)
It shouldn't be that difficult to make actually, as this piano tutorial proves. Hmmm maybe one to learn for me?
Kate Bush - Running up the hill
Ofcourse I have heard the song a lot of times over the last years. This is a classic and it deserves in all lists, but I had never seen it this much as movive music in there. Actually the song is about the love between a man and a woman en making a deal with god to swap places would make them understand each other better, as they say.

Okay when looking at the scene without the rest of the episode in there it might be a little cheesy, but in the total story..wow just wow I would say! Seeing herself hanging in the air while running towards, epic I would say
Im not sure which of the two scenes where it was used in was better, this one where the two teams are both going for it fighting Vecna..okay this is also the epic scene with a bit of a remix in there. Sighhh
Okay, this one is a lot more complicated to play on the piano, but still getting some elements in there. I expect 'Simply Piano' to make a playable version out of it, as they do with most popular songs.
It is cool to see that it can be done on a piano at least!
Argh there is so much to do. Maybe I should play some more piano versus watching more Stranger Things. I guess it is cool there is a season stop at the moment haha.
