it's not 1986 without a WOS, and since we didn't get Bryan Adams, I'll WOS one of the ugliest guys in rock (which is saying something):


It's not that he's ugly. It's that he sucks!
:)

ummm, how about BOTH!

But I can give one more BOS to Robert Palmer.  I heard this song before I heard "Addicted To Love" (same album) and rarely hear it anymore.

It's "Owner of a Lonely Heart"!

BOS: Mr. Palmer

recycling what, exactly?  No argument that you could say that about "Simply Irresistable".

It's from Waltz with Bashir. It was the only line I remembered verbatim, sort of (since the film was in Hebrew, and I had to read subtitles in Spanish).

OOh, big BOS for XTC's "Summer's Cauldron".  But Dave still hasn't let this play through to "Grass" yet, has he?

ETA: Nope.  Boo for that.

That's funny.  Talk about a cultural melange.  Was the answer "none"?

I forgot it's from the same LP as "Addicted". Still minor Palmer, IMHO.
 
But a big BOS4 to XTC. What a fabulous album from start to finish.

Oh, no! Quite the opposite. You should go see the film!

See if you'd said "shamelessly recycling Power Station", I wouldn't have argued much either. 

But I always loved Palmer ever since his debut, Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley.

That's a great album. I've bought it twice, but can't seem to hold onto it. It's a sticky fingers fav.

I'll say Hooray for Ric Ocasek.  

give him some credit: he over came great odds, overall fugliness and suckiness to become a rock god and marry the statuesque Paulina Poritzkova!  :)


(ETA: I don't think he sucks that much, actually.  the Cars' first 2 records are fantastic.  After that, it's spotty, I'll give you that.)

Indeed, a great record. Although it seemed like most of his 70s records have at least a few good songs on each one.

TANC: I just made a mix this morning which included this PSB song.

Your take on the "green" theme, eh?
