BOS #2 New Order, a different mix to my ear.

and "True Faith" makes another good segue from the continuing Bakker clips.

So far, yawn...but still I'm optimistic.  At least half the set to go.

XTC gets a WOS.  This song shows a complete lack of respect for human willpower.

Ooh wait, what's this... New Order?  Yes!   BOS  :)  Now the question is...is it the radio edit or the 5:57 version?

My morning sun is the drug that brings me near.

BOS #3 Floyd "One Slip"

And yet another pointed segue coming out of Reagan's Iran-Contra mess.  Annalisa's having fun today.

No love here for the David Gilmour band...er, Pink Floyd. They weren't the same band without Waters (even though Waters was as big a prick as one could imagine in their later years).

ETA: Shray, you can add this to your list of Alisons though. The phrase "a momentary lapse of reason" puts it in that category.

I dig the Pee-furs, but would someday love to hear Dumbwaiters in whatever appropriate year.

If it ever happens it'll be a bustout. Dave never played it.

Another 'meh' to the Dead, Throwin' Up...I mean Throwin' Stones. Nothing wrong with the song or its message, I've just heard it too much.

BOS #4 "Throwing Stones" a song that appears in 3 different theme sets (Earthquake special, New Year's Day special, Earth Day - twice), and only 1 straight 1987 set.

Annalisa coul've segued out of a couple of her earlier clips into 'politicians throwing stones'

OK, you're gonna have to explain that...

Ok, time to get on my soapbox  ;)

The jist is that bad things happen in this world, so XTC can't believe in God.  So they're really not taking into account that the vast majority of unfortunate things happen because people themselves make decisions/actions that lead to them. (I know, the consequences of the decisions spill out to others too.)  Regardless of belief, if God/Yahweh/Allah/exists does that automatically guarantee that 100% of people's stupid decisions will be automatically overriden?  Somehow, I doubt it.

*steps off soapbox*

BOS2 to the Psychedelic Furs!  And that Pink Floyd song is one of the very few by them that doesn't make me want to rip all my hair out, so VHM to that too.
