Nope, it also showed up in the Feb 2, '06 set.
Let's get right to it.

Lawd, another BOS(6!) and proxy of Gaz for the looong version of Sade's "Smooooth Operator".

Yep, but this embarassment of riches is about to come to a screeching halt. The song Mshray called "cringe-worthy" is up next, unless I'm reading him wrong.

Yep, BOSes for Prince & Sade as well.

and a pre-emptive WOS for tune #8, before my overall BOS for tune #9.

Nope you're not.  And to think that this was the Foghead BOS for the original airdate!

It's not just "cringe-worthy", it literally induces uncontrolled cringing.  (and I used 'literally' correctly)

No argument here. I'm just now coming out of an involuntary cringe state.

Wasn't this the video that had a bunch of different folks auditioning to be the vocalist?  Donny Osmond appears uncredited, and when asked if he has any experience he replies, "I used to sing with my brothers a little."

ETA: checked the AMG credits for this album (Flash) to see who did the vocals, and no one of note is credited except Rod Stewart, and he was only on "People Get Ready".

However Jan Hammer was credited on keyboards, and now he's tune #10.  Also interesting that this song was written by Nile Rodgers.
