BOS Off-Broadway, a band I've only heard on Drive 10@10s. "Turn Your Head Around", new to me.

props to Bob for this lesser-heard Styx track, "Borrowed Time", but I can't honestly BOS or even VHM it -- borderline awful, actually.

But BOS2 the Mighty Zep. All of Percy's love is, er, quite a lot.

BOS3 "Tusk", still one of the ballsiest lead-off singles from a follow-up to a big LP, like, ever.

Good point. For better or worse, though, Fmac were rivaled for this crown last year when Gwen Stefani led off her Sweet Escape album with the "Lonely Goatherd"-sampling "Wind It Up."

For some reason could never get the Drvie player to actually play, and didn't have too much time to muck around with it.  I've got a 10:00 meeting so have fun with Dave.

There's ballsy... and then there's idiotic.  Between that and "If I Were a Rich Girl", she's the most annoying artist on the planet, as far as I'm concerned.
