BOS #4, B-52's "Deadbeat Club".  Half for not being "Roam" and half for the nifty harmony on the refrain.

as per usual, AL started weak and finished fairly strong, but this set really needed some pure Top 40 stuff (any of the things I mentioned earlier woulda pushed this one over the top for me).
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Well, I liked Orinoco flow, because it made us think of our trip to Berlin, where we first heard it.  I also flash to a funeral I attended for someone my age at the time, who was a father to friends of our daughters.  I hear "The Living Years" on the way home.  Corny, yes.  But for that kind of occasion...

1/26/10 - Tuesday!  A bit of time in...1989!!
   1.  The Alarm - Sold Me Down the River
(Movie:  Dead Poet's Society)
   2.  The Call - Let the Day Begin
   3.  The Replacements - Achin' to Be
(Ad:  Magic Dancing Barbie)
   4.  Jeff Healey Band - Angel Eyes
   5.  Mike & the Mechanics - The Living Years
(News:  Tiananmen Square)
   6.  Neil Young - Rockin in the Free World (BOS!)
   7.  The Cure - Fascination Street
(Sports:  49ers win the Super Bowl!
   8.  Pure - Lightning Seeds
   9.  Enya - Orinoco Flow
(TV:  Murphy Brown)
 10.  B52's - Deadbeat Club
BONUS TRACK:  The Waterboys - Fisherman's Blues
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

BOS Enya
WOS Alarm (all too typical of Moreyesque late 80's sets)

Would love to hear on 10@10 but probably won't: Bust A Move (Young MC), with honorable mention to Roachford's "Cuddly Toy"

Roachford's "Cuddly Toy"

I was just thinking about this song the other day.  "If I told ya THREE times, I told ya FIVE times ..."
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Just listened to the replay. Yep, it was a bit of a snoozer in general.

heard the last half of the replay on saturday morning driving with the family.  My son Adrian asked me to turn it up when Fascination Street started in.  Christina asked why, and he said he thought it sounded cool and that some day when he learns to play guitar he would like to learn to play like Robert Smith.
