This has generally been a tough year for 10@10. Let's see if AL can work her magic. Request thread is up.
-
If she actually plays Stars on 45, it's all your fault, bub.
I suggested Phil Seymour "Precious to Me" and Yoko's "Walking on Thin Ice".

And I threw out King Crimson's Thela Hun Jingeet. We'll see -- girl does have kind of a proggy affinity to her. Might be a long shot, but that's what I think of when I think 1981.
-
uber-FF/LN quintet of the week: these were all requested by the same person (who is not a 'snipe or one of us, thankfully):
APP "Games People Play
Santana "Winning"
Rick Springfield "Jesse's Girl"
Geils "Centerfold"
Steely Dan "Hey 19"

Well, at least it would not be an LN. :P

I remember that person from AL's first go-around. I don't recall that they typically made such awful choices.
By the way, her thread now has 65 replies. It took a few days, but it seems fully back to life.

She played Frame By Frame twice, and it took BOS once. When she played Elephant Talk,
it also took BOS. The latter incident led to a brief e-mail exchange, and she related that she
played her cassette of Discipline so much that it wore out.

I really like The Dan, but otherwise... bloorf!

SNL "little chocolate donut commercial" --> our first uber-uber-LN: Santana "Winning". Not a good omen.
-
LN2: Blasters, "I'm Shakin' "

oops, that commercial is from 1977.
I'm tremblin' -- blasters?
-
Charles & Di nuptials --> "Sweetheart", Frankie/Knockouts. Another FF and Morey fave.

Ha! I was wondering if Belushi was still with SNL in '81.

Love isn't always on time, ya know ;)
-
Bill Murray in Stripes (?) --> Human League "Love Action", which rates a BOS in this company.

Hee. Indeed, that song is like "Hold The Line" re-imagined by the McDoobs.

At least we seem to have gotten away from the yacht rock, hopefully for the remainder of the set.
-
even the Pretenders track is rather LN-y: "Message of Love".

My thought exactly. Great song, loved it at the time it was released. Now, I've heard it plenty.

Yup, Stripes
-
more Stripes --> Gap Band, "Burn Rubber" BOS2 for being some actual '80s R&B/funk.
-
uber-LN-infinity: Petty.

uber-LN-infinity: Petty.
The first notes of the song came on, and I wondered how vociferous your LN post would be. Pretty vociferous, it turns out.

and I *loved* the guy back then, but he's such a KFOG/classic rock staple that even a TP track that's a bustout would irritate me.

Yeah, it's hard not to get sick of Petty, Boston, et al., given they've been in heavy rotation for over thirty years.
-
ABC News Brief (gov't shutdown/Russia/Nicaragua) --> "Antmusic". BOS3; she's played it before but it was originally a bustout on her watch, iirc, so she's entitled.
-
praise jeebus! Rick Springfield and it's not "Jessies Girl". BOS4 "I've Done Everything For You"
-

Didn't Sammy Hagar have a minor hit with this a couple years previous?
-
Tom Snyder w/the Clash --> "Radio Clash"
ETA: nice sneaking in of news clips during the instrumental breaks. Riggy-diggy-ding-ding-dang!
-

Yup, he wrote it and thanks Mr Springfield all the time for making it a Top Ten hit.

-
Per her FB page, today's BOS winners were the Clash and the Gap Band. And Frankie & the Knockouts were runner-up.
-
Was called away, so I missed today's set entirely, and it hasn't been uploaded to SoundCloud (yet). Oh well.
