Ohhh, towering WOS for John Waite.  I've always hated this one.
I'm right there with you.  The "no matter what my friends say" was a lazy payoff line.

I hadn't heard this before, but when I heard the cacophanous guitar intro  two words sprang to mind: British and wankers!

BOS from me.  Human League, "The Lebanon," which got limited airplay I think b/c it was a touchy subject.

HM to Nik Kershaw's "Wouldn't It Be Good," a minor sledgehammer for me.

Dave and Irish Greg had a discussion about it recently on the Morning show -- Greg, iirc, hates it, and Dave defended it, and I remember thinking: "so play it on 10@10 already".

BOS4 Nik Kershaw's onetime 'trina that we haven't heard much lately.  This set has officially been rescued from averageness.
