OMG...Uber BOS3 to Kate Bush "The Big Sky"!
Seconded.  I dig Kate Bush, and nice to hear something other than "Running Up That Hill", even though it's a great song too.

OMG! BOS3 Shriekback, "Nemesis"!  not many songs have the word "parthenogenesis" in the lyric.

can you name a song that contains both the words "hermeneutic" and "paradigm"?



little hint: we could hear the song in today's set.

I wonder if Marillion fans lamented that they'd gone the way of Genesis when this tune came out.

Jinxy Philification!

If I ever come across a VHS copy of Weird Science, and remembrr to buy it -- as long as it's less that $2 -- you'll win that.  :)

another hint: "Aretha Franklin" makes an appearance on the album that contains this song

you mean they weren't always Genesis clones? or that they were once "good Genesis" clones and here became "bad Genesis" clones?

BOS4 to the Thompson Twins with a song that isn't Hold Me Now or Doctor Doctor (though it seems to be the third most common, after those.)

Oh, that reminds me.  What song contains both the words "stalwart" and "prognosticators"? (It was a single around 04-05 that we don't hear anymore, but it's by a very well-established AAA artist.)

Sounds kinda like a Wallflowers line...

oh, Blanche!  She's let many men mess with her Toot-Toot. Is this the Denise LaSalle version?? uber-BOS to a bustout, methinks

oops, it was the Jean Knight version. I have both 45s at home (as well as the John Fogerty version) and always found it amusing that 2 '70s soul singers (both pop OHWs, give or take) would try to make comebacks with this song. They essentially cancelled each other out -- Ms Knight got to #50 and the LaSalle version didn't make the pop chart at all.

Good guess (actually it does seem very likely that the Wallflowers would write a song like that) but that isn't it.  Hint #2. This artist has been around for a lot longer than them and some of his songs from the 80s still get massive recurrent spins on AC stations.
