10 July 2015: it's... 1987

uber-LN3 or 4: "Girlfriend in a Coma" (I requested "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard...", which woulda been a bustout)

Lost Boys --> Echo/B'men "People are Strange", which some geezer on the Fogheads for the Old Format page was complaining about recently. BOS2.

Oddly, this is showing up with song ID on the web player, so it must be in their system/database. Odd, since I don't recall having heard it on KFOG before.

There was a time when it was in rotay but not lately (I'd certainly prefer hearing it regularly over "Tainted Love" or "Shout")

Agreed, and it's looking like this is the bustout of the day. It turns up as a bonus track from the Morey era, but not otherwise.

Girlfriend in a Coma however, is rapidly nearing FF status.

Claus von Bulow divorces Sunny --> "We Care a Lot". BOS3 Faith no More feat Roddy Bottum.

This is why it's good to wear a cup.

"Strangeways Here We Come" >  This album was my real immersion introduction to The Smiths. Before then I really hadn't paid much attn to them, but I met some groovy cool folks around this time and they turned me on to them via this record.

AL's on vacay next week, so it'll be '80s and '90s encores no doubt.
