that's a lot of 8's -- but they're good luck, aren't they?

[RGMike]

OMFG! instant BOS to a bustout: Morrissey's fabulous "Suedehead". (Dave has never played solo Morrissey on 10@10 -- EVER. And i don't recall anybody else doing it either.)

[RGMike]

Missy Ethy has similar features (to a lot of other lesbians).

[RGMike]

VHM Jeff Healy, just 'cause it's something other than "Angel Eyes". (Marcus chose "Confidence Man")

[RGMike]

40 days and 40 nights of Sting, rockin' steady.

[RGMike]

shocker! I'm BOS-ing a Tracy Chapman song! "Baby Can I Hold You", actually quite lovely and shoulda been a big hit for someone ( I always thought Anne Murray shoulda covered it).

[RGMike]

BOS3 REM, "Welcome to the Occupation", another one ya don't hear much.

[RGMike]

VHM Ziggy's "Tomorrow People".

[RGMike]

a big "meh" to Rhythm Corps' "Common Ground" -- a Narada that I've heard from Marcus/Ginger and Rob but that I have no recollection of in the context of '88.

I seem to remember it was used in coverage of one of the Olympic games in '88 and got traction that way. But it's a pretty mediocre song--"you don't have to shout, 'cause we're not that stupid"--not exactly thoughtful lyrics.

I was in London during the '88 Seoul (?) Games in Sept. -- so I saw no US TV coverage of them at all, I'm happy to say.
