I'm home sick -- just got up. And I thought "'84 on a Monday -- how Katrina-laden will this be?" And lo, WOS Yes. "Leave It" indeed.

Ironically, if I were at work I'd be in a 10:00 meeting and I'd be missing this.

Hope you feel better, bub.  I've had a nagging cold for about 10 days, so I can empathize.

At least "Crumblin' Down" is a relative rarity.  VHM for this & "My City Was Gone".  And "Go", which may be the least explicable Morey favorites.

But think about it a sec.  Why the hell does Dave play this?  I loved this song when it came out & thus it is on a mix tape or two that I have to this day, and I can guarantee you Dave (nor anyone else except maybe Rob) gives ANY other tune from those mixes more than 'blue moon' frequency.  I find it nearly impossible to believe that Dave can love Tones On Tail without giving due respect to at least 10 other acts and 20 other songs that I include with them . . . but he really doesn't.

If only we could hear some quotes from Buckaroo Banzai...all would be forgiven.

HM to "Blue Jean," which I haven't heard in a while.  People would still speaking glowingly of this song had it appeared on Diamond Dogs (where it would have fit in just fine).

Jazzin' for MondeJean:

"She got a Polish back
She got turned-up nose"

This is so by-the-numbers, it's an insult to numbers.

In-doob-it-a-bly!

Couldn't agree more, Dave's '80s blind spots are THE biggest mystery/frustration in all of 10@10-dom.

VHM REM, but really...

You asked for it!!!

(forgive me)

Buckaroo Banzai: "Hey, hey, hey. Don't be mean. We don't have to be mean because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are."

Perfect Tommy: "Pictures don't lie."
Reno: "The hell they don't. I met my first wife that way."

Perfect Tommy: "Emilio Lizardo... Wasn't he on TV once?"
Buckaroo Banzai: "You're thinking of Mr. Wizard."
Reno: "Emilio Lizardo is a top scientist, dummkopf."
Perfect Tommy: "So was Mr. Wizard."

Lord John Whorfin: "Sealed with a curse as sharp as a knife. Doomed is your soul and damned is your life."

Buckaroo Banzai: "Have you ever thought about joining me full time?"
New Jersey: "Do you have an opening?"
Buckaroo Banzai: "Uh huh. Can you sing?"
New Jersey: "No... No. I can dance."

Perfect Tommy: "Be cool. She'll hold."

Mission Control: "Buckaroo, The White House wants to know is everything ok with the alien space craft from Planet 10 or should we just go ahead and destroy Russia?"
Buckaroo Banzai: "Tell him yes on one and no on two."
Mission Control: "Which one was yes, go ahead and destroy Russia... or number 2?"

as long as my quote search is open...

Otto: "Don't call me stupid!"
Wanda: "To call you stupid would be an insult to STUPID people. I've known sheep who could outwit you. I've worn dresses with higher IQs, but you think you're an intellectual, don't you, ape?"
Otto: "Apes don't read philosophy."
Wanda: "Yes they do, Otto, they just don't understand it."
