"Crush (1980 Me)" is the third single released by Australian singer-songwriter Darren Hayes from his debut studio album, Spin (2002).
The song is regarded as a huge shift for Hayes in sound and shaped the form of what would be his next studio album The Tension and the Spark (2004).
[3] Can't Stop the Pop gave the single a positive review writing, "On paper, Crush (1980 Me)’s lyrics read like an inventory of ‘80s references.
Darren Hayes may well be indulging in his own nostalgia, but the production puts the listener right there with him in the centre of an all-consuming wall of sound.
After the game, Hayes chooses Martha over Cyndi and both of them enjoy a movie in the evening as a shooting star ends the clip.
