Leading off with Mah-vin, Got to Give It Up.
Wasn't this in the last VT we had, which I'm thinking ended with '77? (Could be mistaken on that last.)

Dave's changed his "time ... marches on!" soundbite.
And BOS to "Baker Street," split between Messrs. Rafferty and Ravenscroft.

Ah...the inevitable Rafael Ravensroft shout out. BOS from me too.
Gaz, check out my attempt at translating Nena back on the KBCO page.

Btw, heard a brief interview with Dave Grohl from the London Live Earth show on Saturday, in which it was mentioned they're releasing a cover of the aforementioned Baker Street. Harrumph.

Their new CD is all covers, no? Or am I confused?
BOS Rickie Lee, down at the Pantages.

Chuck E.'s in lu-lu-lu-lu-love...with me!

Mark, we had no idea.

I only need "Chuck E. Cheese in Love" once a year. Same with "Funkytown," the latter having been felled by irony overkill.

They covered "Baker Street" many years ago, actually; I remember hearing it when I was interviewing for the job with RadioSpy (then MP3Spy) in SoCal in '99.

Dave should do an '80s VT that includes both versions of Funkytown -- haven't heard the Pseudo Echo cover in ages.
-
good gawd, "Jessie's Katrina" which I loved once, when it was not hip to say so, bu now everybody loves the damn thing and says they always did.
-
"Don't You Want Me," ruined by a cookie commercial.
-
VHM Human League, for reminding me how fresh this sounded at the time; even the "urban" stations in NY were playing it.

Ah, a little research reveals that they released an expanded version of their album The Color and The Shape this year, which included BS. That's probably what they were referring to in the interview I heard. But it appears that yes, it was recorded years ago.
And I noted that among the others who have done covers of that song, one is Rick Springfield. Who'd a thunk?

"Don't you want to eat me?" I like the "punky Chips ahoy" commercial. nearly genius.

Yikes, I realize VTs are about playing the hits, but this is one serious Katrinafest.

Our House, not registering any enthusiasm here; When Doves Cry a little better. But I think I'm still leaning toward Baker Street for BOS today.

took the words outta my mouth.
unless we get a surprise in the last 2 songs, it's BOS GR & VHM his purpleness.

Sounds like Dave's sticking to form for his mid-80s selections. Baker Street it is.
-
BOS #2 "Would I Lie To You", maybe my favorite Eurythmics tune, got to crank it up!
ETA: and not one Dave plays much either. In fact the last time he played it was in a set 2 yrs ago...from 1983!

Happily not, and I'll take Simply Red any day. Dave used to never play this, but it's shown up a couple of times over the last 2 yrs.

Close, Simply Red. Another Brit R&B revivalist band.

Indeed, the first time I heard this, I assumed it was an old black woman singing.

There is justice. Messr. Rafferty, Ravenscroft et al win the popular vote as well.
-
Holy Crap! the bonus is Seger's '87 "Shakedown", which could easily be a HFH suggestion.
