I was gonna stick with my 1980 prediction. Feh.
'93 is not a year I have any great expectations for; plenty of pop nuggets have been requested over time but few have been played.
-
Stereo MC's "Connected" is our TOTHK -- a longtime Moreytrina in this year. Methinks I'll pass on this one. But if anyone listens to the end, I'm curious whether AL mentions the return of the marathon.

I'm listening. Whereas the recent trip to 1994 mainly featured "alternative" radio standards, this set is the usual '90's mellow gold, KFOGy fare.

Well, whaddaya know? Here comes (song #8) Cannonball, probably one of the top five "alternative" radio standards. Maybe this will open the floodgates.

Depeche Mode, I Feel You

The covers of CD singles aren't as fun as those of 45's. Go figure.

Is Can't Do a Thing (to Stop Me) an example of "BOS for not being _________________?" In this case, San Francisco Days.

No mention

Well, that doesn't surprise me -- a sort of DM/AL greatest hits of '93. I'd call half of these LNs but then I've never had much use for '90s sets so I'm biased.
At least the TFF song was played in the right year -- Dave famously used to play it in '89 iirc.
-
This is one of those sets which touched many bases, but lacked a serious 'hey!' moment. Would probably greatly appeal to the casual listener.
The fact that Big Head Todd & The Snoozers was not played works to its benefit.

He probably got it confused with Sowing the Seeds of Love, which is understandable.

If memory serves, when the marathon debuted oh-so-many years ago, it basically ran 6-10AM. At some point, maybe around 2005-2006, it got moved back to ~7-11AM. I think it was because folks complained about how early it was.

That sounds right. I also recall when they first were planning the marathon, they asked Fogheads to vote when they wanted it to run: early Sat AM, 10PM Sat nite, or Sun nite. And Sat mornings won the vote.
I'm assuming they'll be in Mon-thru-Fri order...

That's a good question - I want to say that on occasion they did run in order, but more often than not it was a case of "52 Pickup".

Heh. Often DM or AL would take requests (which usually amounted to "play that crappy '90s set first at 6am while I'm still asleep"). Something tells me they'd like to avoid that this time around but I'm happy to be wrong.

That's how I recall it too, although the order was always strictly random, at least in the DM era. I don't recall how they were sequenced after AL took over.
The one thing that's kind of interesting in the wording of her announcement is that the sets will start at the top of each hour. Previously they just ran one after the other, with a significant commercial break between each one, which was how they got 5 days of sets to fit into a more-or-less four-hour time slot. This way, they're actually going to run longer than earlier marathons.

And I actually think that's better -- you know when a set is starting, even if you don't know what set it is. Reminds me of the olden days when they'd do " Classic 10@10 Weekends" with a new set at the top of the hour from 10a to 10p all day Sat & Sun.

woke up at 8:45 heard the tail end of '99, followed by '88 and now at 10:00 it's the 1970 "encore" which was my fave of the week so I'm glad to hear it again.
