kudos for Dramarama's "Anything" and of course the Purple One.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Seconding the Dramarama BOS.  But MAJOR DEMERITS to Rob for not playing the "blind faith in your leaders will get you killed" intro to "War."  Almost ruined it for me.  Broooce oughta return to playing this in his concerts.

I thought maybe the single version omitted the speech, but I dug out my 45 (which I bought because "Merry Xmas Baby" is on the flip) and it includes the whole spiel, which is great, because Top 40 radio more often than not edited it, and so I'll bet many who bought the 45 after hearing the song on their local CHR station got it home, put it on, and heard Bruce's words for the first time.
