Retirement
(That's actual number of calendar days. It's a whole lot less if you remove weekends and holidays. And even less than that if you calculate the actual number of days I have to come into the office!)
I was only 13-14 when this was a hit, but there was something in this song. Something that you knew was "new." Late seventies top 40 music was disco, hard rock or schmaltz. Early eighties music was dance, softer rock, new wave, and light punk. "Pop Muzik" was kind of a dividing line for me between 70s and 80s. I guess "Video Killed the Radio Star" by the Buggles and "Cars" by Gary Numan round out the top three that marked a hard snap to a new kind of music. But that's just my opinion.
