Thread has been up for several hours. A few good requests so far, and lots of "why bother?"
-
I was out last nite, but I probably woulda posted my usual usuals.
-
U2: predictable but still a VHM from me.
-
BOS Heaven 17's "Let Me Go", mainly 'cause it's a looooooong 12-inch remix version.
-
BOS1 The long version of Heaven 17 - Let Me Go

great song! I just took a look at the lyrics: that dude is in pain.
Major Tom says early 80s to me. Just had a flashback of hearing this in the dining hall in college.

LN: "Major Tom". The German version might've gotten a VHM.
-
VHM Sting for rhyming "brontosaurus" and "lesson for us"

Concert of the Summer of 83!
DUUUUDE!
"Intimate Sadness"? the voice is familiar, but...
-
Tomorrow Never Knows the Smithereens. Never heard "Beauty and Sadness" before. Pretty good stuff.
-
A Smithereens song that isn't LN? :o
This one is NTM, BOS2

BOS2FRA "Sweetheart Like You"

Ooh, Pale Shelter! Instant BOS3

'83 TFF is less LN than '85 TFF. VHM from me. This song is forever linked in my mind with Red Rockers' "China", for some reason.

The Smithereens' drummer, Dennis Diken, released an album of great stuff along these lines:

Bu-Bu-But... the wikipedia says it's from 1983..?

No matter. Overall BOS from me (and my request, too!)

yes, yes -- released in the UK (and charted there) in late '83. Not a hit here until the following spring. Sorry, I'm a chart geek.

So, I wonder what song holds the record for most different years played in on 10@10. Another question might be: What song would be eligible for the most number of years? I can't see how there could be any disagreement on this subject.

meaning in the most correct/"legal" years? 'cause Dave had a couple songs he used to play in the inarguably *wrong* year, consistently. TFF's "Break it Down Again" is one, iirc.

I think for part one, "total number of different years actually played",
for part two, "total number of different years the song could be 'legally' played".

Re part 1, I was thinking the Nazz's Open My Eyes had turned up in at least two if not three years, but it's in the Shraytabase only under 1969. So what other song am I confusing this with?
As for part 2, Bohemian Rhapsody has charted several times I think. My copy of Whitburn only has two entries, but it's woefully out of date (8th edition circa 2004) so there may have been at least one more appearance since.

Any chance they played the 12" single version? BOS for me, reading the list.

Theoretically, the Gin Blossoms' "Allison Road" could be in any set from 1992 through 1995:
92: Its CD "New Miserable Experience" was released
93: "Hey Jealousy" from the same album picks up airplay.
94: "Allison Road" charts late in the year
95: "Allison Road" peaks on the airplay charts early in the year.
I also want to say that "Southside" has made appearances in 1999, 2000 and 2001 sets.
