On this day back in 1986, “Stuck With You” by Huey Lewis and the News started a three-week run on the U.S. singles chart. Thinking about the upbeat, tongue-in-cheek love song brought us much joy! It also got us “stuck” on the word “sticky.”

It can be a tacky substance that clings to something, an embarrassing or strange situation you might find yourself in, or it can even be used to describe the weather. Today, let’s get a little sticky with music!

So, for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs about being stuck or sticky would you like to hear?
