With the exception of Stevie and maybe the Blondie tune, you could make a case for this being a Vertical Cheeze tasting.

See, at least to me, "Your Kiss Is On My List" is the cheese champion for this set so far.

If we all keep grousing about it then it'll be a Whine & Cheese party.

Really?  Cheezier than Chevy Van or Rod the Bod? This is my BOS, a great pop single, from a year that needed great pop to take away the pain.

And speaking of great cheeze-pop -- one of Huey's finest hours.

I think Yessongs hit on the essence of this set's appeal: none of us were teenage girls. Where's Alicat? We need a girl's perspective.

No time to post much but a stellar sounding set.

Chevy Van was good, MJ sounds good too.

I have to share this (very fond) memory of a juke box at some bar years ago which had both "Beat It" and Weird Al's "Eat It" -- and I *really* enjoyed playing both songs....  (simple pleasures)     8)

VHM to the TTs.  But hardly one of Dave's best VTs.

Just went to the 10@10 page to grab yesterday's VT set for posting here, and it seems they forgot to put it up. Dave's intern, you're fired!!
