If you haven’t checked out Netflix’s new show Stranger Things, seriously do it. It’s awesome. If you have, you know that the music totally makes the show. Unfortunately, the synth-tastic soundtrack isn’t out, but this playlist of 80s music featured in the show is.


When it comes to the real-life 80s songs used in the show, Stranger Things lifts from beloved sources like Jefferson Airplane, The Clash, and Foreigner. The playlist below, created by Netflix itself, even kicks off with the now-heart-wrenching “Should I Stay or Should I Go.” Thanks, Netflix for making this fun song tragically emotional for me now.
