Boots

This week on Strictly Soundtracks, we’re diving into the music of Boots, the hit TV series about a closeted gay teenager who enlists in the US Marines in 1990. The show’s packed with late-’80s and early-’90s classics, from Bananarama and the Go-Go’s to Wilson Phillips, Sade and Queen. We unpack how these tracks shape the story, set the mood, and capture a moment in history when LGBTQ Americans were banned from serving openly in the military.
