00:00:00.090 --> 00:00:01.560
- [Host] Legendary underground rockers,

2
00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:04.080
The Cramps, are enjoying a
Kate Bush like resurgence

3
00:00:04.080 --> 00:00:06.450
thanks to the Netflix series, 'Wednesday'.

4
00:00:06.450 --> 00:00:09.870
The band's 1981 hit, 'Goo Goo
Muck', provides the soundtrack

5
00:00:09.870 --> 00:00:12.810
of one of Wednesday's key
scenes, where star Jenna Ortega

6
00:00:12.810 --> 00:00:14.940
delivers a showstopping dance routine.

7
00:00:14.940 --> 00:00:17.670
The dance clip and the song
have gone viral as a result,

8
00:00:17.670 --> 00:00:19.740
which means Netflix might have another

9
00:00:19.740 --> 00:00:22.050
running up that hill moment on its hands.

10
00:00:22.050 --> 00:00:24.270
Billboard reports that
streams for the Cramps track

11
00:00:24.270 --> 00:00:26.790
spiked more than 50 fold in five days.

12
00:00:26.790 --> 00:00:28.530
'Wednesday' is an Adam's family spinoff

13
00:00:28.530 --> 00:00:30.330
that centers on the high
school misadventures

14
00:00:30.330 --> 00:00:32.010
of goth child Wednesday Adams.

15
00:00:32.010 --> 00:00:34.140
Tim Burton is an executive
producer of the show,

16
00:00:34.140 --> 00:00:35.940
because, of course he is.

17
00:00:35.940 --> 00:00:38.430
As you no doubt recall,
Netflix's 'Stranger Things'

18
00:00:38.430 --> 00:00:41.400
featured the 1985 Kate Bush
single 'Running Up That Hill'

19
00:00:41.400 --> 00:00:42.780
during its most recent season,

20
00:00:42.780 --> 00:00:45.450
which caused the song to
skyrocket in popularity.

21
00:00:45.450 --> 00:00:47.310
The vintage Kate Bush
track topped the charts

22
00:00:47.310 --> 00:00:48.840
in eight countries, and
reached number three

23
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:50.190
on the Billboard Chart.

24
00:00:50.190 --> 00:00:51.780
And it looks like Netflix has been able

25
00:00:51.780 --> 00:00:53.070
to make lightning strike twice,

26
00:00:53.070 --> 00:00:55.579
which is okay with us
because The Cramps kick ass.

27
00:00:55.579 --> 00:00:58.542
(bright lively music)
