"by the rocket's red glare

Smoooothness from Icehouse.  Could be a Bryan Ferry song, no?

The only song in this set that I woulda BOS'd was Gene Loves Jezebel, but nobody even commented on it.
"Music is the Earth, People are the Flowers, and I am the Hose."

Same groove in this song as in the Bowie/Metheny collaboration, This Is Not America.
Let's get right to it.

Not quite. It's out of my usual playlist, but I have a few pleasant memories associated with this, just because it was all over the radio circa '86.
