I'd call that much better than a wash, but I guess that depends upon the quality of the LNs some too.  However, I could have done without the Midnight Star, which was awful to my ears.  BOS, Cyndi Lauper.

BOS Billy Idol. I don't think I've ever heard 'Flesh for Fantasy' on KFOG before; it hasn't appeared in the AL era at least.

FfF > WLGtDWI = awesome segue.

it was Morey's 2nd -favorite Idol tune, after the uber-'trina "Cradle of Love". It's still an LN to me.  The rarities/bustouts were pretty great today, but a couple of those LNs were *really* unnecessary (yeah Henley I'm lookin' atchoo).

I'll give this set an 'A'. Never get enough of Henley, and I haven't heard "Flesh For Fantasy" on the radio for a good while. And "Hello Again" is one of the Cars' most,um, unique songs. "You Take Me Up", "Money Changes Everything" and the Midnight Star are more than welcome.
