VHM for "The One Thing", but not for "Katrina of a Lonely Heart".

Seems Ali is unlikely to get her wish.

aaack! Owner of a Lonely 'trina. Oh no for pity's sake!

As common as 1983 always seems, we haven't had a "new" '83 set since May 9th (we got a "classic" '83 on Memorial Day).
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

VHM Human League, tho' I assume "Fascination" is bordering on Katrinaville.

Wit'cha bro. Ditto for Feeling Katrination. I think this set is getting the Monday-morning by-the-numbers treatment, even tho it's a Wednesday.

...And plain to see, the facts are changing.  No meaning left to hold.

See, I think "(Keep Feeling) Fascination" makes a good segue after all of that Reagan nonsense.

indeed, in paint-by-number sets, Dave's segs are usually all we have to hold onto.

Betcha you'll BOS Simple Minds, bub.

Fagen, "Green Flower St" -- an almost-Grand Slam for the Dan today.

well here's your bustout, assuming this is Stevie Ray.

I like the Simple Minds, but it is a borderline Katrina as well.  Even "Green Flower Street" has been heard twice in the past 10 months.

"Fascination" is the #3 Katrina from 1983, tied with "Europa & the Pirate Twins", although I guess we won't hear "Hungry Like the Wolf" unless Dave opts for a Fab Five twin-spin.

1. Psychedelic Furs - "Love My Way"
2. Duran Duran - "Hungry Like the Wolf"
3. (tie) Human League - "(Keep Feeling) Fascination"
3. (tie) Thomas Dolby - "Europa & the Pirate Twins"

Ooh, it's the extended intro to "Major Tom", a VHM today.
