Someone actually requested "Black Velvet". Oy.

ETA: we actually heard that song in our last visit to '90 in Nov.  I'm gonna predict that Concrete Blonde's "Joey" makes an appearance.

pumped-up Reeboks commercial --> the 'mats, "Merry Go Round", one that is not overplayed, so VHM.

more Pretty Woman --> "World in My Eyes", DM.  Another VHM for another not-overexposed song from a familiar artist.

Still more PW --> Robert Palmer's wonderful Marvin medley, "Mercy Mercy Me/I Want You". BOS1.  Appears to be a bustout?

"Solid Jackson!" sez Don Pardo.

Mandela released from prison --> "The Obvious Child". An obvious choice.

Fool's Gold is one of my favorite songs/albums of all time,  but it came out in 1989.  And God help me if this is the truncated version that got played during A-Z.

Anyone who has access to Amazon Prime c an watch the quite excellent docu-concert of their reunion for free, and the live version of FG towards the end is mind-blowing.

ETA:  I'm gonna have to watch that right after this set just to get the bad taste out of my mouth.   And they have more than once played the entire version randomly on "your weekend KFOG" in the past few years.

Cure, "Never Enough". Meh. One of my pop/R&B requests woulda really been sweet. But still, not a terrible set as 1990 goes.
