That guy sure can't hum.  I thought this was gonna be Trio's "Da Da Da I Don't Love You You Don't Love Me".  Lots of holes in this one.  But EvilLyrics fills in the spaces.

Dunno if I've already asked this, but are there at least three distinct recordings of this song?  I've noticed dissimilarities that seem to go beyond remixing.  VHM, at any rate.

sounds like the orig indie-label version, and not the RCA remake. But I always get 'em confused.

J.Geils when they were... commercial.

i don't get them confused, though i wouldn't know which is rca, and which isn't. i only know this one is not as "complex."

I know of 2.  the indie and then the RCA re-do. Are you thinking of the Orange Slice commercial it later became?

Woo Hoo! BOS the Jam! "A Town Called Malice", one of the GREAT singles of that period.

Had that tune ever appeared in a year-based set before? I know I've heard it in a couple of Turkey or HFH sets, but I don't recall it in an 82 set before.

BOS1 Town Called Malice. Not too tough to connect the dots from this to Style Council.

 I hadn't thought of that aspect of it, but you're dead on. I always think of it as a Booker T. hommage because of the organ.

BOS2 to "I Burn for You," which over the years has become perhaps my favorite Police tune.  Sting at his sexiest.

a song that capitalises on the bo diddley beat (not the booker t. groove), much like george michael's "faith."

My sentiments exactly--this is kinda wussy for prog rock. No big drums or mountains of keyboards. Still, Jon Anderson does carry that cachet, so I suppose there are elements of prog here.

BOS2 Bow Wow Wow, I Want Candy.

After, I'm pretty sure. That's the one in which Julie showed off the twins, yes?

Rare indeed that the set outstrips the bonus track. Fine, fine 82 set however--will try to do the archival thing but may not be feasible. Backup would be much appreciated.
