I'm listening right now on a large boom box at my mom's house in Southern California. 1984 is the year, and so far there's been Henley's Boys of Summer, Cars' You Might Think and Scorpions' Still in Love with You.

Bowie's Blue Jean followed by Ghostbusters clip followed by Pretenders' Middle of the Road. I guess it was too much to hope for Ray Parker, Jr., on this format. Also, the DJ, Uncle Joe, broke in after the second song, to announce the first two numbers and remind us of the year, so that was different from the old KFOG template.

Bruce's Cover Me, second DJ break, Night Ranger's Sister Christian. The Night Ranger had a memorable appearance in Boogie Nights. Now, Billy Idol's Eyes Without a Face, which is my BOS because it's the only song so far to evoke a specific memory, taking a summer school biology class at Fullerton College (down the road from where I am right now), to make up for not being able to fit science into my sophomore year of high school. This Is Spinal Tap clip ("goes to eleven") into U2's In the Name of Love, BOS 3 (what the heck, I'll retroactively BOS Night Ranger). Well whaddaya know, song 10 is the Ghostbusters theme. BOS 4.

Tomorrow, misheard lyrics!

I was too stingy at the beginning with the BOS and too generous at the end, I realize. Of course,  if FF/LN criteria are in effect, there were no BOS, but I figure they have to be suspended if one is going to listen to a classic rock 10@10 beginning-to-end.
