Would YOU walk ten miles on your hands and knees? Would YOU wrestle with a lion and a grizzly bear? No? Well, maybe you’re just not TUFF ENUFF for those types of activities. This week, we dive into the 1986 hit from The Fabulous Thunderbirds, a long-running blues band that scored a surprise hit, thanks in part to it being featured in a Michael Keaton film. The song has since been woven into the soundtracks of our lives, often being used in commercials, movies, TV shows, and blooper reels. And now, thanks to it being selected by our Patreon members, we’re going to TWIST IT OFF and learn some POWERFUL STUFF about the Thunderbirds.
