Wow, this Fixx song is new to me; instant BOS.  Did this chart at all?

[mshray]

Wow, the Fixx -- I don't recall this getting much play at the time.

I was listening to the kinds of stations that played it, but haven't heard it since.  BOS #3 from me.

I was listening to the kinds of stations that *should* have played it, but for whatever reason ignored it.  I don't remember hearing this Shawn Colvin in '89 either.

I don't think I had ever even heard of Shawn Colvin before "Sunny Came Home" - the stations I was listening to at the time had no use for the genre.

Triple-A as a format didn't really come into its own until the early '90s -- and so KFOG was my first exposure to it. NYC still doesn't have a Triple-A station (unless you've got a really good antenna and can pull in The Peak). I still believe that if WNEW-FM had morphed into Triple-A from heritage prog (as KFOG did), instead of doing that awful talk format in the '90s, that the radio landscape in NY would be different today.

I heard this song back in the day, along with the original of that new Eddie Vedder track "Hard Sun"*, on KTYD in Sta. Barbara & on XTRA (out of TJ) in SanDiego.

Not sure I paid any attention to who Shawn Colvin was then, nor could I have ID'd this song today without peaking.

*it got played on KFOG about 7:45 this morning & Dave deftly ID'd it as "Eddie Vedder's cover of a song by Indio", which pleased me.

Heard him do likewise once or twice last week, so someone obviously hipped him to that faux pas. Maybe even us?
