La la la la, I like the La's.

I un-"Feh"d myself when Elvis came on :)

But the La's, sweet as the song is, are uber-LN at this point.

Me neither. Definitely some faux Sly and the Family Stone. Not a bad song. I'll HM it.

ETA: It's Fishbone. I remember thinking I ought to get some of their stuff, but I never did.

yeah, once I heard the song title repeated ("Everyday Sunshine") I realized it was them. Saw the docu about them at the Roxie a while back -- worth renting.

Cool. "Girlfriend" certainly goes in the same power-pop unnecessary bin with "There She Goes". A fine song, but...

I'll give another HM for the Stone Roses' "Waterfall". Nice tune, but not as cool as their more rockin' numbers.

Whoa, now here's something you never woulda heard on KFrOG: BOS for "Little Fluffy Clouds". I think this is The Orb, right?

No idea -- thanks for the ID!  I find stuff like this with endlessly-repeated samples... mildly annoying.

uber-LN: Petty. There's black guy with a guitar who busks in the 24th St BART station, and for some reason he does this song alot.

BAD are also rather LN at this point.  Or maybe I'm just cranky.

Actually, I heard this song on RP but it was a different version with a lot less of the sampling. Not nearly as Max Headroomy. This version is less good.

There's something about Bob. BAD is kinda cool, but this song is just b-a-d.

uber-WOS "Rico Suave". Easily one of the worst singles of the '90s.

Hmmm... about a 50/50 split between LNs (2, 4, 8, 9, and 10) and rarities. Kind of unusual in the sense that the LNs clustered towards the end. But overall, not a bad way to come back from a week off.

the Orb was, I'm assuming, a bustout? 

The only good thing about the Clarence/Anita --> "Rico Suave" segue is that is wasn't Clarence/Anita --> "Breaking the Girl".  ;)

Haha, I just realized something.  We got Little Fluffy Clouds into Learning to Fly!  Cute.

Also, something as uber LN-y and guitar-y as Learning to Fly actually didn't sound too bad right after something as obscure and electronic-y as Little Fluffy Clouds.

Globe, Rush, & Should I Stay or Should I Go--only one of these needs to exist.
