The Cars, reminds me of an anniversary the other day, and a sad excuse to make a profit...

Gotta agree with you Dave.  But I for one still like the Cars, Katrina or no Katrina.

Can't call that APP tune (One Good Reason) a katrina, but I'm not liking it any more than if it were.

APP? least-katriny so far, but far from a bustout.

"Mine. Is. The lahst voice. You will ever hear."  BOS2 FGTH, there must've been a dozen different mixes of this at the time.

I still enjoy "Hello Again," certainly more than any other Cars single.  But BOS to "Two Tribes."

So far Frankie is about as close to a BOS as I've heard.

Whoo!  BOS, Best of Week to Howard Jones, "What Is Love?"  This song amounted to a philosophy lesson for me back in the day: "And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be."

Bears are not Stephen Colbert's or Elvis Costello's friends either, as anyone who watched his special last night knows.

I heard bits of that show when Colbert was on Fresh Air the other day, but didn't catch the actual show.  Pretty funny?

It had its moments but was way too self-aware (how many times can someone look at the camera with feigned amazement?).  Willie Nelson's appearance amounted to a four-minute pot joke, and Feist actually stole the show.

Yay for the Honeydrippers, "Rockin' At Midnight" for the bonus track.  I would have held out for "Young Boy Blues", but I'm to lazy to try and call in for the quiz.

Looking for Big Brother back in...1984

1. Wang Chung - Dance Hall Days
2. John Cougar Mellencamp - Crumblin' Down
3. The Cars - Hello Again
4. Alan Parson's Project - One Good Reason
5. Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Two Tribes
6. Zebra - Bears
7. U2 - The Unforgettable Fire (Best of Set)
8. Howard Jones - What is Love?
9. Thompson Twins - The Gap
10. Pretenders - My City Was Gone

BONUS TRACK: The Honeydrippers - Rockin' at Midnight

I only heard tunes 7-10 in the car, seems like I got all the good stuff (I'd a gone BOS fro U2 & HoJo plus VHM's for Thompson Twins & Pretenders)

Here's the totality of Dave's Howard Jones spins in the Db:

January 13, 2004 - 1989 - The Prisoner
September 25, 2006 - 1984 - What Is Love?
July 3, 2007 - 1985 - Like To Get To Know You Well
November 12, 2007 - 1985 - Like To Get To Know You Well

So he's never played "Life In One Day" much less "No One Is To Blame".  I woulda thought a guy like Dave would love him some HoJo.

Especially knowing his jones (no pun intended) for Nik Kershaw, who I always saw as a HoJo clone.  But we've heard both those tunes from Ginger in the past, haven't we? Definitely "No One..." if not both.

Just caught up with Tim Goodman's review and he said just the opposite -- he thought it was very funny and says Feist sang "the weakest song of the night". (The original tunes, BTW, were co-written by the ubiquitous Adam Schlesinger, whose Cry-Baby recently closed on B'way.)
