Look, we love 80s music here at Rock Song of the Week. When I say we, it’s more the royal we. Well, the royal I. Okay, me and me alone. But that’s not going to stop me finding the oldies that have stood the test of time. Look at Mario Vayne, he’s been doing it since at least the late 70s… what’s that? This song came out in 2025? Well, you don’t have to tell me twice.


Taken from his upcoming (at the time of writing) debut album The Moment, the Australian singer-songwriter captures the essence of that time period so accurately that there’s no guarantee he doesn’t have a time machine or two stashed away. From the dependable bluesy wails to the era-appropriate guitar solo to the absolute infectiousness of the whole damn thing, it’s genuinely wild to hear it and think that the album containing it isn’t even out yet, let alone not over four decades old. Either that or I paid way too little for my desk calendar. So, if you’re looking for an early sound so authentic that it has its own fitness gear, look no further than Baby (Way You Love Me) as your Rock Song of the Week pick. Thoroughly endorsed by yours truly until they change the locks on the office doors again.
