Each track was specifically chosen to fit both the scene and keep with the time period of the show, and here’s a complete list (put together by the folks at Screen Rant) of every song featured this season, as well as the moments they coincided with:

  • “Higher And Higher (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me)” by Jackie Wilson – Scoops Troop drives to Dustin’s radio tower.
  • “Never Ending Story” by Gaten Matarazzo and Gabriella Pizzolo: The pair sings over the radio to get the passcode from Suzie.
  • “Heroes” by Peter Gabriel: The group loads up the moving truck as Joyce closes the door to her house.

That’s the complete list of classics that will definitely bring the nostalgia to anyone who grew up in the ’80s. The series will also endear a new generation of listeners to these all-time greats. After all, many of these songs are bound to become popular again now that they’ve been used in the hit Netflix show – we just hope the cringe-worthy outfits of the era won’t follow suit.

The third season of Stranger Things is currently streaming worldwide.
