In the 1970s, an eccentric style of music called New Wave was trending.

Although “The Hustle” isn’t New Wave but rather falls under disco music, it’s a striking piece with a quirky structure that’s almost on par with New Wave.

In Japan, many people may know it from its use in a Suntory commercial.

Despite its highly distinctive arrangement, it also conveys shades of R&B and soul in places, making it a recommendation for fans of Black music.

This is a gem of a power-pop track released in September 1994 by Weezer, a band emblematic of American alternative rock.

Through references to rock ’n’ roll stars and actresses of the 1950s, it powerfully sings about resisting the gaze and prejudices of others in love.

The driving guitar riffs, catchy melodies, and bright, memorable sound blend beautifully.

Included on the 1994 album “Weezer,” its music video was directed by Spike Jonze and won four awards at the 1995 MTV Video Music Awards.

Capturing the spirit of American youth at the time, this song is recommended for anyone who values staying true to themselves or wants to cheer on pure, sincere love.
