Review:

9/10

"There’s something truly thrilling about watching a group you grew up with step into a new era, and 98° just did that with “Stranger Things (Have Happened).”

What makes this single hit is the duality it’s laced with. It’s very much a nod to the Stranger Things era, oh yeah, that iconic television series you and everyone else binge-watched the moment each season dropped.
