30 June 2014: it's... 1985

[Big Fingers McGee]

Simple Minds "Sanctify Yo'self" strikes me as rather LN.

While I'd concur r/ "Don't You Forget About Me" or possibly "Alive And Kicking", "Sanctnify Yourself" I don't think appears on the radio too often nowadays. I do know that Dave liked "All The Things She Said".

BOS U2

[RGMike]

Rock Hudson dies --> U2, "3 Sunrises." That's the letter U, the numeral 2, and the sunrises 3.  Also a slightly less -obvious choice. VHM.

[RGMike]

Back to the Future -- LN2 or 3 from the Straits.

One of my faves from them.

As much as I like dire straits, I tend to agree. I do, however, need to name drop a little bit. In the original video of the song, the bass player is playing the bass neck I sold him

Joan Baez, "Good morning children of the '80s" --> TOTHLN: Bangles "Manic Monday"

I usually don't stress about this, but Manic Monday is a 1986 song. Album release date, single release date, international release dates, airplay, chart dates, all '86. Sure, it was recorded in '85, but I've never thought of that as a criterion for inclusion in a year. Maybe she got an advance radio copy? Probably just a Richardsonesque mistake.

It's only appeared a handful of times on 10@10, but most of them have been in the past three
years.  I also don't hear it much on the radio.

Golden Girls --> TFF "Mothers Talk"

BOS from me.  Songs From the Big Chair is one of the top albums of the decade, IMO.

wow, I didn't even notice that -- good catch. I'm guessing it was a Facebook suggestion and that she just played it w/out thinking.

Ah, those Fogheads. Not troubled by little things like dates. Last week in the request thread for the 71 set, someone requested 10cc's I'm Not In Love. Seriously.
