I think 1968 is due, but who knows?

ETA: close, but no cigar.

And now I got a phone call to take.  Ahh well.

Happy birthday anyway, bub!  

What did you ask for?  

In any event, it's not like asking for nintendo and getting underwear -- at least it's '69.

OMFG! Nilsson -- and it's not "Everybody's Talkin'".. BOS5 "I Guess the Lawd Must be in NYC", written for Midnight Cowboy and ultimately rejected (as was Dylan's "Lay Lady Lay").

Yeah, 69 on your birthday is never a bad thing. :)

This year I asked for a year-specific Soul Patrol--either 71 or 72, Dave's pick.

Maybe next year I'll have Alicat make my request for me--she always gets hers played.

WOS "I Want You". I always found this quite ponderous.  Apparently this is one of the low-lights of Across the Universe.

It's a real anti-Paul song.  But it sounds sooo good at the beginning.  And of course, if Paul is dead, he ain't singing no Beatles song.

With all apologies (to you and Goldie), I will BOS this out of a stellar set.  I love the extended ending.  It does plod a bit, but that's part of the affect.

Nope -- the pattern generally is the oldest year gets played at 7am. They think old folks get up early, I guess.  Sometime we get lucky, but more often than not, it's '60s at 7.

I haven't read the rest of this thread yet -- I'm actually approximating real-time at 1am, how geeky is that -- so Proxy of Princess if one hasn't already been cast.  Still amazing to me that this hit the Hot 100.  Someone told me it riffs off "Aquarius" in the intro, but I don't hear it.

Haha, omg THANK YOU, you know how much I hate the -- they're not even non sequiturs, they're anti- sequiturs -- here.  (BTW: You can throw the Airplane's "Won't You Try/Saturday Afternoon" at me in response, and I'll agree with you.)  I see why others like it; I just can't dig it myself.
