Episode 32: Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion

Tis the season for proms and high school reunions, so what better time to revisit the 1997 yearbook flashback Romy & Michele's High School Reunion? Just like The Wedding Singer, this album is loaded up with more 80s pop staples than we can count. (Well, there's only eleven songs on the album, but you know what I mean.) We've got Tears for Fears, The Vapors, Culture Club, and three—count 'em!—three appearances from The Go-Gos and Belinda Carlisle. And this isn't even the only soundtrack that came from this film!

Which songs belong on this soundtrack? Which ones feel extremely out of place? And which ones trigger long lost memories best left on the cutting room floor? There's only one way to find out, so hop in and let's get rockin'!
