As a cinephile with an affinity for the ’80s and a penchant for great soundtracks, I must say that Rivals has piqued my interest in more ways than one! With its stellar cast and engaging plot, this series promises to be a rollercoaster ride. But let’s not forget about the heart of every good drama – the music!
It’s the ’80s-set series that’s coming to our screens at long last this week and quite frankly, Rivals is set to be a veritable hoot of a drama.
Featuring stars such as David Tennant, Alex Hassell from “The Boys,” and Aidan Turner known for his role in “Poldark,” this series takes inspiration from the book of the same title by Jilly Cooper. It tells the story centered around the struggle for independent television within the fictional county of Rutshire.
One significant element in the series is the struggle for power, along with some scandalous events among the town’s residents. However, it doesn’t take long to notice that the show “Rivals” boasts an impressive selection of music as well.
From the unforgettable introductory scene underpinned by Robert Palmer’s Addicted to Love to hit tunes by The Clash, Blondie and The Pointer Sisters, it’s safe to say that the music of Rivals will have you toe-tapping away.
However, which tunes does each installment of the show feature? We’ve conveniently compiled them for your perusal, so keep reading to discover!
