BOS #3 Depeche Mode, "I Feel You".

reckon this isn't to everyone's taste here though.

I don't think that was one of their more popular songs though (or at least I hope it wasn't...it certainly wasn't one of their better ones  :P)

Well, that was the first AL set that I've actively not-enjoyed. Which is a pretty good batting average for 8 weeks work.  That set needed some pop and/or R&B for balance, IMHO.

I think I picked a good day to listen to The Sound, although Flaming Lips and Breeders get my votes.

eta:  I'm hearing the set on my buffered online player, and I like the Dead Can Dance track.

BOS Pumpkins.  Listened to this album endlessly in 93-94.

Me too, along with Aimee Mann's "Whatever" and, uh, Meat Loaf's 'comeback' album.

I don't think that was one of their more popular songs though (or at least I hope it wasn't...it certainly wasn't one of their better ones  :P)

Made it to #37 on the singles chart and went gold.  It got heavy MTV airplay at the time.

I like a lot of this, would have preferred Barenaked Ladies or Frente! or Duran Duran (if my memory's right).
