Some T7S Music Headcanons. 60s, 70s, and Beyond.
*Bob played Beach Boys songs so much in the 60s that Donna can't stand them.
*Carole King and Carly Simon are her guilty pleasure artists.
*Musically, she thinks that "I Am Woman" by Helen Reddy is underwhelming. Meanwhile, Midge loves it.
*Eric calls Hyde his "doobie brother."
*Eric constantly says "Tin Man" by America is a song about Hyde.
*Tears For Fears is Eric's angry music.
*Eric loves Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing." Donna hates it.
*Eric constantly compares himself and Donna to Paul and Linda McCartney.
*As an adult, he's ashamed of his KISS phase. And his tween Bread phase.
*"The Living Years" by Mike and The Mechanics hits him like a train. It's about him and his dad, essentially (except Red's not dead). Donna tries to get him to talk to Red about it, but to no avail.
*He loves Milli Vanilli, even after everyone discovers they're frauds.
*He can moonwalk like Michael Jackson.
*He rightfully proclaims that George Michael is gay, long before it goes public.
*He's the most devastated when John Lennon is murdered.
*Fine, maybe him and Jackie are John and Yoko. Jackie is as tone deaf as Yoko.
*He thinks it's hilarious when Reagan praises and uses Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA."
*He and Jackie share an immense hatred of hair metal.
*Heart is her angry music.
*She loves Madonna, but she hates "Like A Virgin" because it reminds her of Fez.
*She stops liking Journey when she finds out Eric's a big fan.
*Karen Carpenter's death, from anorexia, hits Jackie hard. And causes some substantial self reflection.
*He can recite "One Week" by Barenaked Ladies and "It's The End of The World" by REM word for word.
*He spends a solid week in 1982 looking for Jenny, prank calling 867-5309 with various area codes. Brooke is annoyed.
*He plays "My Best Friend's Girl" by The Cars on repeat circa season 5-early season 6.
*As a tween, Kelso learns the infamous riff from "Smoke On The Water." And plays it over. And over. And over.
