Retro Review: Modern Romance’s Hidden Gem ‘Nothing Ever Goes the Way You Plan’
Step back into the 80s with Modern Romance’s “Nothing Ever Goes the Way You Plan,” a track that brilliantly captures the era’s vibrant energy. The song kicks off with irresistible disco beats and handclaps, instantly setting the party mood. Funky guitar riffs intertwine with a French accordion, adding a romantic edge that transports you to a lively European soirée.
The vocals are soothing yet mysterious, gliding seamlessly over the rolling bassline, leading into a big, anthemic chorus that resonates with the sentiment that “nothing ever goes the way that you plan.” The track is a percussion-rich masterpiece, true to the 80s style, and while it might be a hidden gem among the hits of the decade, it’s a clear winner on our blog.
But the song doesn’t stop there. The real surprise comes when the queen of the rapping scene steps up—a female voice that raps and sings with a snarl, delivering a performance that’s both catchy and niche. Her presence is magnetic, making the track not just a song but an experience.
“Nothing Ever Goes the Way You Plan” is more than just a song—it’s an 80s experience, blending genres and pushing boundaries in a way that only Modern Romance could. Don’t miss out on this retro delight; it’s a winner in every sense.
