"Da Da Da" Trio -- we're in familiar alt-pop territory so far.

I'll give it a BOS for nostalgia value. But the nostalgia is for when my kids were small and we listened to an "Electronic Eighties" CD over and over.

Totally different head. But not a totally different '82 set.

BOS1 Nails "88 Lines..." in a VERY censored version.

For some strange reason, Hits 106 had “Da Da Da” on their playlist around 1994-1995.

BOS The Nails!

Funny thing. I looked up "Brewer's Droop" because of its mention in the lyrics. As you might imagine, it refers to impotence after drinking too much. I thought it might refer to the gut that results from excessive beer. But the real news is that Mark Knopfler played in a band called "Brewer's Droop" in 1973.

VHM Church, "Unguarded Moment".  Depite some overly-familiar selections, this was quite entertaining.

I couldn't place that band either. Very good song, I think. BOS for me.
