Tunesday - Relax

Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Having seen Wonder Woman 1984, like most of you have. I noticed the distinct lack of any music from the year it's set, in the movie. "Yes" none of those great songs from 1984 were included. My guess is because it was thought they would take you out of the film and trigger memories of the song instead.

Well here is a blast from the 1984 past! Although it peaked at a mere 67 on the charts Frankie Goes To Hollywood Relax has become a song that has been used in many films and TV Shows. Most notably Brian DePalma's Body Double, where it was featured appropriately and prominently. Given that the song is about as they put it "shagging."

Seriously though, what song isn't?!

This could have been fun played over the montage where Steve is trying on clothes for Diana IMHO. "No" you say, well come up with a better song idea from 1984, and place it within the context of WW84. I double dog dare ya!

Check out the video for Relax after the jump!
