"Hey man... ah saw yo' wife the otha day... and she's UUUUGLYYYY!"

"Yeah, she's ugly but she sho' can COOK, baby!"

JJ plays Jimmy Soul's immortal, un-PC classic.

But JJ, how on earth does one see "Harvey Fuqua" and pronounce it "floo-kloff"??

2NG's retro-chart is from sept 1984 -- fab NTM stuff like MJ's "Girl You're So Together" and forgotten gems by Nik Kershaw, Crock o'Siegals,  and OMFG "Tesla Girls" by OMD!

Heaven 17's jaunty "Sunset Now" is also NTM.

Shakin' Stevens' "A Letter to You" was a country hit some years later by... somebody. (ETA it was Eddy Raven, who had a US #1 Country single with it in '89).

OMFG: a reggae cover of Lionel Richie's "Stuck on You"!

Holy crap: Buck's Fizz (a spoonerism, get it?) had the UK hit of the Romantics' "Talking in Your Sleep". News to me!

oh my: Malcolm McLaren's "Madame Butterfly"! *swoon*

ooo: haven't heard Alphaville's "Big in Japan" in quite a while.

Tuned in KPOO last nite around 10 and there was a guy playing a bunch of old -- and uncensored! -- Richard Pryor stuff, doing his "Mudbone" character. It was hilarious, muthafuckas!

2NG's 1969 chart getting underway -- near the top is the Serge Gainsbourg/Jane Birkin classic, "Je T'Aime" -- I know there are some fans of that one here.  But first, a NTM Roy Orbison tune, "Penny Arcade"

They apparently coudn't find the orig of "25 Miles" (?!?) and so we're getting a live version.

yay vanity fare's *other* (first) hit: "Early in the Morning"

Englebert! "I'm a Better Man" -- *swoon*!

OMFG: they played the uncensored version of "A Boy Named Sue" -- sonofabeetch!
