1998 was the year of the rock ballad, though (with heavily reverbed acoustic guitars).

Re Bull Durham, Ron Shelton is an overrated hack.

OMFG: Fairground Attraction's fantabulous "Perfect". uber-uber-BOS3.

Most definitely. Props to the good captain for requesting this.

There's a cover by a country act whose name escapes me which is also fantastic. Or maybe Fairground Attraction's version is the cover.

Baillie and the Boys had a Top 25 Country hit with it a year or 2 later. And yeah their version's great too.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!  uber-uber-LN and all-time Moreytrina, "Wishing Well"

The first two were, I believe, released on album in 1987, so AL may be thumbing her nose at the dude on FB who was needlessly nitpicking the dates of a couple of requests and a song played on the air the other day.

LOL. That would be awesome.

Bull Durham is an all-time-fave of mine; his sports movies generally, I like (Tin Cup, White Guys Can't Jump). His other stuff is hit-and-miss

By my count, that's 10. No Patti Smith.

somewhat surprising, I must say.  It's something of an AL FF, but Id've preferred it to "Wishing Well" or "The Flame".
