I understand your perspective and think it’s a totally valid response. I actually found the out-of-placeness sort of charming — it reminded me of being an adolescent and having opinions and feelings about music for the first time… while completely misunderstanding what the song was saying.

This is an interesting pair of takes because my problem with it was that it was just about the most on-the-nose, boring, predictable song they could have put there. I was just joking that they should have put Cloudbusting there instead, but it was pointed out that there's an early 90s version of that song that is clearly going into Season 8 of the show. Just pick any other song from the Chocolate War soundtrack instead. "I Have The Touch" would have worked even better.

UTAH SAINTS! UTAH SAINTS!

(It would have been more fun if we'd spent the past month with clickbait like "What is Orgone Energy, Anyway?"

Right? It would be as good as anything else the show has induced in the culture. Maybe it explains the Upside Down or whatever. :)

You're probably being facetious, but season 5 was confirmed to be the last season when season 4 was announced.

I hope most of them die. There’s too many characters. The first season was fun but it just keeps growing and growing. It’s like the teenage angst MCU, each set of characters has to have a scene where they talk about their feelings with one another and it’s boring at this point.

It would be fun for them to do a And Then There Were None, but they’ll never do that.

Has to be the end, purely for time paradox avoidance: they are fast approaching the year that Winona Ryder stars in Beetlejuice.
