11 April 2014: it's... 1980
« on: April 10, 2014, 07:49:57 PM »
not surprising. Another "4 decades and a theme set" week. Here's hoping this isn't another AL's Greatest Hits set.

annnnd... we've already gotten a request for "Skateaway".  (and later, "(Just like) Starting Over", godhelpus)

Fine songs so far, but the above description fits nonetheless.

A wheelhouse set for me.  I was listening to pretty much everything here.

John assassinated --> "Beautiful Boy"   Nice surprise and thank GAWD she avoided "Starting Over".  a BOS contender, certainly.

If she had played "Starting Over", it would have been a morbid segue from the assassination news report...
