BOS Drive (though I have to admit that I really liked hearing Leave It on headphones).
Now I'm eight bits...

just when you thought we couldn't sink any lower... the Cars "Drive" on in.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

That was more of an anti-Cars comment than against the song itself, which I actually liked once upon a time.

I predict this will be the last set in Saturday's marathon... and that Dave will say "saved the best for last" or somesuch.

SF Guy will agree with you if he stops by.  These are his golden years.  :)

Actually Drive is kind of a guilty pleasure for me, although I readily concede that its similarity to 10cc's I'm Not In Love is at least partly responsible for my fondness. But I still didn't vote it BOS. REM got my vote there.
Let's get right to it.

Bonus Track:

Annalisa let the Foghead choose between

Bruce Cockburn "If I Had A Rocket Launcher"
Joe Jackson "Be My Number Two" (which he chose because he'd won KFOG tix to see JJ at a Concert For Kids back in the day)

and the 3rd choice was The The "This Is The Day".

OMG, give her credit for even thinking of The The, much les mentioning them on air.  Great song, too!

This actually one Cars song I don't like. Way too soft for me.
