8 May 2014: it's... 1983!

[Here'sToYa!]

Hmmm is right. I believe she did not mention Big Country or The The when counting down the songs, so she ended up with a nice, even ten.

SSHHHHHHH! I won't tell if you won't.

Despite a couple of rarities, this set had a high LNQ and overall was disappointing.  I would
rate 1983 as the strongest year of the decade, but again the potential wasn't realized.
BTW, Kajagoogoo hasn't appeared that many times on 10@10... off the top of my head, I
would rank just about anything from Men At Work as the highest LN candidates.  I grudgingly
give my BOS nod to Tears For Fears, with an HM for Safety Dance, because I like its
goofy video.

Just noticed that this set still isn't posted on the KFOG page, even though today's set is already up. What up with that? (Btw, did anyone catch last night's replay to see if they let all 12 songs play out, or edited it back to a legitimate 10-song set?)

All 12 songs were repeated. (She also did mention The The, but I couldn't catch which ones she skipped in the backsell.)

The set has been posted, but not in the 10@10 section. It's on KFOG's main SoundCloud page.
