The Brains - Money Changes Everything

Here's a vintage piece of early 1980s underground American college rock. It sounds totally mainstream today but I guess back then they were probably lumped in with the mullet-and-skinny-tie crowd who were all deemed by MTV to be "new wave", even if they weren't. Some of them were a lot worse than this.

This was their only real hit, and was atrociously covered by Cyndi Lauper a few years later.



ETA: Not sure what the problem is with this video. If it's not just a Blogger bug that goes away on its own by the weekend, I'll change it.
