In searching for a tune that would save Max's life, the Stranger Things crew wracked their brains to come up with her favorite song. The answer was Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) by Kate Bush, first released in 1985 (a year before the plot takes place).

Monkeys at the Helsinki zoo have been given access to a primate version of “Spotify and Netflix” in a new study to see how animals engage with sound.

Experts at the University of Glasgow have developed the “monkey media player” – an interactive system which lets gorillas, chimps, and orangutans access sounds and videos.

Focusing on a group of three white-faced saki monkeys at Korkeasaari Zoo in Helsinki, Finland, a small computer was played in a wood and plastic tunnel which was then set up in the animals’ cage.
