"All I Want Is U2" -- VHM for not being "Desire" or "Angel of Harlem"

Love the Liaisons. "Beyond my control" is a great line to quote.

woulda been nice. I'll keep requesting it; you'd think it'd be right up AL's alley.  Be a killer TOTHK.

I'm sure alot of Fogheads thought this set was the bee's knees but it seemed pretty rote to me.  One bustout: CVB.

beep-boop-boop: TOTHK Escape Club, "Wild Wild uber-LN". Nowhere to go but up from here.

Yes, it is a Katrina. OTOH, I have no idea why the hate. It was different, clever, popular, and not AAA dreck.

just one of those songs I wasn't all that crazy about to begin with. (Despite one of my fave mondegreens, "Cher is on the airwaves") I'm always glad when AL plays a pop (non-AOR/AAA) hit but there are many songs she coulda played instead that wouldv'e been bustouts. I know, I know, these are the times we live in, accept the bitter with the sweet, etc.

I was this close to requesting their second hit, "Shake For The Sheik".

DJ E-Z Rock is definitely not a name. He was part of one of the best pop hip-hop singles ever, though.
