16 July 2010: it's... 1986
« on: July 15, 2010, 03:51:29 PM »
AL's post on FB features the video for "Happy Hour" by the Housemartins. "let's make this the theme" within the year, she sez. So I sez: if it's a happy hour you want, how 'bout Jermaine Stewart "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off".

I love that song Happy Hour!  I remember buying it in vinyl in high school.

pre-emptive WOS for "I Wanna Be a Cowboy", which we're apparently gonna be, er, saddled with. Yo, yo, yo.

Nothing screams upbeat '86 like I Can't Wait by Nu Shooz.  Hope AL plays it!

I nearly requested that myself. Cheeziest synth-line EVAH (and I mean that in the nicest possible way).

I have high hopes for this good-time, "happy-hour" concept -- it would seem to preclude some of the boring '86 Morey-era mainstays like David & David (tho' we apparently are getting them anyway, since 4 or 5 people requested "Boomtown"). But here's hoping.

instant BOS the Housemartins, of course!

Ha! I was thinking the same thing -- nothing says depressive like Morrissey.
