I'll give a BOS for Michelle Shocked.  Great atmosphere on this tune, not as much the lyrics.

BOS3 from me, and not just because it became a really terrific Kaiser commercial:

I gotta BOS Iggy, since I tuned in too late to hear the Pixies (dammit).

ETA: I mean, er, TPoH, which even then i got confused with Iggy for some reason.

BOS4 Beetlejuice, one of those flicks that just got better with repeated viewings on cable.

BOS5 "I'm an Adult Now", making its 2nd appearance in the AL era.

well, what album *wasn't* produced by Todd back then? (answer: all the ones not produced by either Phil Collins or Robert "Mutt" Lange).

I've requested "Bone Machine" from the Pixies and "Teen Age Riot" by Sonic Youth, along with a few secular hits.


Both great requests!  You really ARE the most interesting man in the world.   :P

I don't often make 10@10 requests, but when I do, I prefer to choose songs that I both want to hear, and aren't Katrinas (and have a ghost of a chance of actually being played).
