25 March 2014: It's 1981

This has generally been a tough year for 10@10. Let's see if AL can work her magic. Request thread is up.

If she actually plays Stars on 45, it's all your fault, bub.

I suggested Phil Seymour "Precious to Me" and Yoko's "Walking on Thin Ice".

And I threw out King Crimson's Thela Hun Jingeet. We'll see -- girl does have kind of a proggy affinity to her. Might be a long shot, but that's what I think of when I think 1981.
Let's get right to it.

Well, at least it would not be an LN.  :P

I remember that person from AL's first go-around. I don't recall that they typically made such awful choices.

By the way, her thread now has 65 replies. It took a few days, but it seems fully back to life.

She played Frame By Frame twice, and it took BOS once.  When she played Elephant Talk,
it also took BOS.  The latter incident led to a brief e-mail exchange, and she related that she
played her cassette of Discipline so much that it wore out.

SNL "little chocolate donut commercial" --> our first uber-uber-LN: Santana "Winning".  Not a good omen.

Bill Murray in Stripes (?) --> Human League "Love Action", which rates a BOS in this company.
