That's what I get for trying to work and post a clever first post at the same time. Sorry, Andy.

And before I forget. BOS1 to Roxy's Love is the Drug. Another example of the bassline carrying the melody, although I can't recall what the other one we talked about was.

Pretty decent set so far, although still lacking a killer bustout. If we're not going to get one, then I'm thinking a BeeGees tune (Nights on B'way, Jive Talkin') would put this set over the top.

least necessary: America, one of Dave's fallback '75 Katrinas. Much as I loved it then, I've heard it a few too many times.

Dave's just itching to get inundated with BOS votes--we've had a lot of songs that are past BOS winners (Tavares, America, Sweet, Starship, and now Todd)--is this the Big 75 BOS-off Set?

Literally indecipherable: There is no translation of that in any known language.  And I prefer to think that John wasn't engaging in juvenile wordplay antics with "poussé."

Yeah, I'm gonna want to hear this on the replay, even if I'm lacking someone to sing "Miracles" to, or about.  :(

6/13/2006 - Tuesday! Good times in...1975!!
 
1.  Sweet - Ballroom Blitz  
2.  Roxy Music - Love is the Drug

Considering what they had to choose from, the TODD-IS-GODD contingent should have its voting privileges rescinded.   :o

I gotta say I agree, and I vote for Todd pretty frequently myself. But with the riches that this set offered, I mean, c'mon, Toddheads--don't be so damn predictable and take a flyer on something different for a change. (For the record, the only vote I tendered to Dave was for the George Harrison tune, although I could have easily gone for the Starship, Roxy Music, or Lennon songs as well.)

Yesterday's 68 set was good, but this was the set of the week, imho.
