80's Mixed Tape

...Or an 80s song containing an actual old magic word of power.* A lot.


*It goes back at least 2,000 years. It's origin and meaning are obscure but it was in use in folk magic in a healing spell into the early 20th century and was then used by a stage magician leading to the current view of it as a nonsense word.

Okay, I realise that this thread is turning into 'Benway just plays a lot of 80s songs he likes' but I used to know a girl who was called Rio!:
And I knew her mum, and while I never asked Rio, I asked her and she did confirm that she was named after this song, so I couldn't let an 80s music thread go by without wishing joy to Rio and her mum and playing their song.
