‘Teenage Kicks – right through the night!’ (The Undertones, 1978)

Having a grand Monday? Whether the answer is “Yes” or “No,” this will make it better. It’s The Undertones with “Teenage Kicks.”

“Teenage Kicks” was the debut single from Northern Ireland’s Undertones and originally released in the fall of 1978 in the UK. It eventually hit the US in 1979. The song is an almost perfect 2:28 seconds of teen angst, lust and punky pop. Play loud!
