RR's clue "Brian Boitano won the US *and* the world Figure Skating Championship" Well, could be '86... '87... '88...
"What Would Brian Boitano Do?"
ETA: 10@10 will have a late start thanks to "World Concern"s radio-thon.
and it's '86. Mr Palmer is addicted to TOTHK.

TOTHK Robert Palmer "Addicted To Love" 1986
Sounds like the longer album version from Riptide.
-
Ya might as well face it, you're a dick, Ted Tulove!

bwahahaha! A Jim Carrey movie title in the making.
-
don't get me wrong, I like the Pretenders. But this one is pretty LN at this point.
-
Pretenders "Don't Get Me Wrong"
-
Prince "Kiss"
-
Something Wild, followed by Prince with LN3. Ah think ah bettah bathroom break now.
-
WOS Pretenders.
-
World Party "All Come True"
-
BOS1 early World Party, "All Come True". Probably DC's idea of a rarity.
-
Here's today's snoozy rarity! I'll BOS it though.
-
I'd give the Prince and World Party VHMs; no real (or even partial) nuggets yet.

yes, agree! WP was never big on my radar, but I like what I know of them.

So I don't get this guy. He keeps your secret for a moment, but since it seems like your sekrit admirer is gonna come back and ask again, he sells you out immediately. Some pal.
-
BOS2 "Human" -- this was a bustout when AL played it, so it's stilll pretty fresh (tho' Kiss-FM has it in rotay)
-
Human League "Human"
-
wow, BOS3 and proxy of Gaz: HoJo
-
Howard Jones "No One Is To Blame"
-

Funny, I was thinking that the Human League song sounded a lot like Howard Jones. Guess RR picked up on that too. (Must be pretty obvious, eh? ;) )

LN4: Timbuk 3. 8)
-
Timbuk 3 "Future's So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades"
-
LN4: Timbuk 3.
Probably the most "least necessary" of the songs we've heard today. IMO, of course.
-
Lyle Lovett "You Can't Resist It"
-
don't think we've heard that Levi's/JC Penney commercial before.
BOS4 early LL.

Resistance is futile. BOS for Lyle.
-
LN5 PG, "RR"
-
BOS 2&3 HoJo/HuLa
-
Peter Gabriel "Red Rain"
-

Agree. Lyle FTW. Wish he'd hit another stride like he did from 86 to 92. His albums since Joshua Judges Ruth have mostly been snooze-inducing.
-
Well this PG song is a little LN but it's one of my top 5 faves of all time, so BOS4.
-
LN5 PG, "RR"
Coulda been worse. At least it wasn't In Your Eyes or Sledgehammer. Or Big Time.

I blame Julia Roberts.

LN5 PG, "RR"
Will RR finish off with a BOS, making it a 50/50 split between BOS and LNs?
-
The Smiths "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"
-
BOS5 Smiths -- wow, a set where BOSes battle LNs for supremacy!
ETA: almost-JINX, Cap'n! RR actually pulled off that feat. Hit by a double-decker bus, indeed.
-
Throwing on the Smiths in an LN-heavy 1986 set has become a running theme.

Johnny Marr did this one the other night at the Fillmore. We loved it!

thank gawd their catalog is big enuf to avoid Smiths-LNs most days. And I can remember a time when we never heard them, and then a time when Dave played the same 2 of their songs repeatedly ("Ask" and "Panic"), so anything else is gravy.

I find the song to be evocative of film noir, in which getting screwed over by your supposed buddy
is entirely appropriate.

LN5 PG, "RR"
I don't see any occurrences in the DM era, and only two spins by AL. That doesn't necessarily
mean it isn't LN, but I think it raises the bar to be so designated.
-
LN4: Timbuk 3. 8)
Only two appearances in the DM era, but several during AL's tenure. I'm too lazy today to
check to see how many of those might be encore sets.

An LN isn't the same as a Katrina.
An LN is a song that gets significant airplay outside of 10@10, that is.
A Katrina is a song with too many 10@10 appearances.
There are some songs that qualify as both.

indeed. I freely admit that my LN bar is quite low, just from listening to all the other 10@10s (see: the Drive and "Dreadlock Holiday"). But we're also talking KFOG/K-FOX/Live 105 regular rotation when we're talking LNs. And "Red Rain" shows up often enuf on KFOG (in my experience, YMMV) to make it unnecessary for me.

Ah. I thought a LN was just a FF that had crossed over the line of being played too much,
within the bounds of 10@10.
Despite hardly ever listening to the radio outside of 10@10, I, too, have heard Red Rain a bit in
recent weeks. Probably post-10@10. So the LN call seemed reasonable to me, and I was
surprised how little it had actually been played on 10@10.
