VHM Church, "Unguarded Moment".  Depite some overly-familiar selections, this was quite entertaining.

I couldn't place that band either. Very good song, I think. BOS for me.

I got "Unguarded Moment" confused with The The's "Uncertain Smile"

Dire Straits "Industrial Disease". VHM.

This was the most effective music for getting my middle child to sleep during her infancy.  Strong bassline.
