Thought I heard a promo saying something about the Saturn (the car) which debuted in '85 -- this would be the 2nd '85 set in less than a month, but then it's DC's sweet-spot, year-wise.
ETA: 1982
-
Hmmm... Clue: year Sony introduced the CD player... 1982?
-
Renee appears to be confused (shocker, I know). The CD player she named in the teaser I heard (Sony CDP-101) came out in 82, as CJ cited, and Mike was right that the Saturn debuted in '85. So maybe '83? '84? Guess we will find out at 10:04.
-
Clue from Tim: year North Carolina won the NCAA men's basketball tournament - 1982 it is.

TOTHK MJ Billie Jean
-
TOTHK MJ Billie Jean
which is only marginally from '82 (Thriller a very late-year release; the single peaked in '83). VHM, but a pretty obvious choice from this LP.

A Flock Of Seagulls Space Age Love Song
-
BOS 1 & 2 so far.
-
E.T. is L.N. But nice segue to crock o'siegals. BOS "Space Age Love Song"

The only single from that album that would make the 1982 cut would have been the lead off single "The Girl Is Mine".
ETA: She could have chosen one of the two album cuts that weren't singles: "Baby Be Mine" or "The Lady In My Life" (but how likely would that happen?)
-
Falco Der Kommissar
-
BOS3 Falco!! infinitely better than the ATF version.
-
Falco Der Kommisar
BOS for the correct German version!
-
BOS3 Falco!! infinitely better than the ATF version.
Agreed!
-
XTC Senses Working Overtime
-
Another BOS for XTC.
-
Another BOS for XTC.
sorry, it's an uber-LN to me. Mr Morey must've played it a gazillion times.
-
Bow Wow Wow I Want Candy
-
Another BOS for XTC.
sorry, it's an uber-LN to me. Mr Morey must've played it a gazillion times.
Don't be sorry ;-)
Anyway, much better than "Mayor of Simpleton", eh wot?
-
"if the Great Pumpkin existed, he would be horrified" Er, what?
RR gettin' the art of the segue down pat: H'ween --> "I want candy" BOS4.
-
The English Beat Save It For Later
-
it's New Wave Central today. VHM "Soonah aw Laytuh"
-

I'll give it a VHM too, but I'd say this is a even more frequent flyer than the XTC tune.
-
Bruce Springsteen Atlantic City
-

you are probably correct, sir.
BOS5 Broooooooce, "AC"
-
Thomas Dolby Europa and the Pirate Twins

Agreed on all of the above (save for the katrina-ness of Senses Working Overtime). Points to DC/RR for programming anything from Nebraska. That said, it's yet another Springsteen tune -- and I can hear the screams of glee for the Bruce tune emanating from the GS board, even all the way up here.
-
another Morey fave: Dolby, "Europa" VHM.

Europa and the Pirate Twins
Another BOS. I really thought I didn't like what was on the radio in 82, but there certainly was some good stuff. By now I've (almost) forgotten about that execrable "Flock of Seagulls" song.
-
BOS3 Thomas Dolby.
-
Duran Duran Rio
-
her name is Rio and she flies frequently on the 10@10.

Maybe so, but this song has some awesome bass work in it. It seems like it had an extended intro, maybe just a couple extra bars. Did I imagine that?
ETA: This has got to be an alternate version with that sax solo, eh?
-
Men At Work Down Under
-
Men At Work Down Under
Oy: one of the uber-uber-LNs of all time.
This was a perfectly enjoyable set, tho' a bustout would've been most welcome. It was like one of AL's NewWave-centric '80s sets, but without the rarities.

TANC: Listening via my headphones today, and I was struck by the same thing: that bassist (one Taylor or the other) is really going to town on this one. And yes, this does seem to be an extended edit.
On the other hand: not M@W again!!! I'll be chundering now...

Renee must be lurking here. Her comment about the bass-playing all but confirms it. :)

Renee sez 2-way tie for BOS: Springsteen and Duran Duran
-
It's been a while since I stopped by but I was able to hear today's set. Not bad, but boy is Renee dead. No enthusiasm at all. I don't get it -- wouldn't this show be a DJ's dream job? Edit: but props to her for the Tylenol/Halloween news -> "I Want Candy" transition. Need more like that!
As for the music, lots of frequent flyers. BOS Space Age Love Song (especially for not being "I Ran"). Man, look at that hair!

actually (and this is the 2nd time it's happened) she appears to be quoting the Wiki page for "Rio": radio programmers paid closer attention to the catchy melody and insistent, intricate bass line

Renee cribbing her spontaneous comments from Wikipedia? I could see that.
Btw, Nate, good to see you again!

John Taylor is the Brian May of Duran Duran
(If you say Queen sucks, someone invariably says "But Brian May is such an awesome guitar player" or "Brian May has such great tone.")
