When The Cramps released “Goo Goo Muck” over 40 years ago, nobody could’ve predicted it would resurface because of a viral dance. But that’s exactly what happened after Wednesday Addams made it a moment.

What’s wild is watching little kids hear that intro and immediately stop what they’re doing. They go straight into that dance. No hesitation. No explanation needed.

That’s culture in real time.

If I had pulled that record out years ago and played it for a 5-year-old, it probably would’ve been background noise. But because they connected to the show first, now the song hits different. Now it’s theirs. And suddenly, a band like The Cramps becomes relevant to an entirely new generation.

That’s the power of media crossover. TV, TikTok, streaming—whatever the platform is—it can breathe new life into music that never really went away. It just needed a spark.

Now you can drop the needle on that record, and instead of running past it, they lock in. They know it. They own it. And you get to be the one who says, “That song’s older than your dad.”

Music doesn’t age. It just waits for the next wave.
