Throwback Thursday Playlist: Concert Nights You Never Forget
Throwback Thursday, we celebrated Lisa Lisa’s birthday, honored AKA Founders’ Day, and relived the concert nights you never forget. Here’s the full playlist—featuring Lisa Lisa, Luther Vandross, Michael Jackson, Anita Baker, Sade, and more—plus tonight’s Video of the Night.
Tonight, on Classix at Nite with Donna, we took it back for a special Throwback Thursday celebrating the music and the memories that still feel like yesterday. Our theme was “Concert Nights You Never Forget”—because the 1980s gave us legendary live shows from artists who didn’t just sing… they created moments.
Happy Birthday, Lisa Lisa
Tonight we showed love to Lisa Lisa—an 80s icon whose music soundtracked parties, heartbreaks, and everything in between. We kicked off the night with her classics and kept her energy sprinkled throughout the show.
