we've had a lot of compare'n'contrast lately. Dave'll have to work hard to top what Ginger just did. Feel sunshine sparkle pink'n'blue to start.

VHM "Livin' on the Fault Line" -- nice segue out of Carter's litany-of-global-woes clip.

I did at the time, being a big sci-fi fan and also an admirer of the previous Parsons thang, ...Edgar Allen Poe. But I'm amazed at how beloved it appears to be 30 years later.

APP garnered a bit of hipster cred when Grandaddy (indie darlings from Modesto) paid them some homage on a couple of albums.

BOS Serpentine Fire. Killer horns here.

Ginger v. Dave in a nutshell: she gave us "Quietest Moments", while he goes with the overplayed hit.

Okay, but I doubt anyone besides Dave will ever play "Cherchez La Femme".  Or all that much disco generally.
