Abstract	Music is a universal language that transcends borders, cultures, and time. In recent years, there has been a nostalgic return to the 1980s new wave in today's music and popular culture. This retro revivalism has been attributed to the “cancellation of the future” and the desire to revisit a time when optimism and possibility were in abundance. The younger generation's affection for this era of music has created a unique opportunity to use music as a language tool in foreign language classrooms. By connecting language learning to popular music, educators can motivate and engage students, improve their listening and comprehension skills, and provide a fun and creative learning environment. This paper reviews the beginnings of the New Wave in the Anglo-American context and Germany respectively. Next, it seeks to explain the cultural and social context which has enabled the emergence of “retro revivalism”, and, finally, it explores the relationship between music and language learning and provides practical suggestions for incorporating popular music into foreign language instruction.
Abstract (croatian)	Glazba je univerzalni jezik koji nadilazi granice, kulture i vrijeme. Posljednjih godina došlo je do nostalgičnog povratka novog vala iz 1980-ih u današnju glazbu i popularnu kulturu. Ovaj retro revivalizam pripisan je "poništavanju budućnosti" i želji da se ponovno posjeti vrijeme kada je optimizma i mogućnosti bilo u izobilju. Naklonost mlađe generacije prema ovoj glazbenoj eri stvorila je jedinstvenu priliku za korištenje glazbe kao jezičnog alata u učionicama stranih jezika. Povezivanjem učenja jezika s popularnom glazbom, nastavnici mogu motivirati i angažirati učenike, poboljšati njihove vještine slušanja i razumijevanja te pružiti zabavno i kreativno okruženje za učenje. Ovaj rad daje pregled početaka novog vala u angloameričkom kontekstu, odnosno Njemačkoj. Zatim nastoji objasniti kulturni i društveni kontekst koji je omogućio pojavu "retro revivalizma" i, konačno, istražuje odnos između glazbe i učenja jezika i daje praktične prijedloge za uključivanje popularne glazbe u nastavu stranih jezika.
