ahhh, "Worlds Away"

all is forgiven!

never quite got the love for this one (Dave played it often too). A total Narada for me.

In their earliest incarnation, KFOG was all over this one, so you'll probably find a lot of long-time locals who have a soft spot for it.

BOS1 Worlds Away, BOS2 the Kinks (natch).
Let's get right to it.

Narada for me too, but I love the epic feel.  reminds me of Ultravox.  This set has been great so far, and if anyone has my permission to break the string of new waviness, Ray Davies can.  Although he certainly does cram some awkward narrative lyrics into Don't Forget To Daunce.

OTOH, I've never quite taken to this particular take on delerium.

now I get why this dialog from Risky Business keeps getting played:  Tom Cruise sounded crazy even back then!  Why didn't we see it?!

Big Rick and co. used to play it on KITS.  Not a huge alt hit, no.

Yes I see a theme here:  now we have the Canadian rocker who occasionally sounds like a wailing wounded cat who's not Geddy Lee...  nice AL!

Ending on a strong rockabilly note, between the Stray Cats and Neil & the Shocking Pinks' Payola Blues.

ETA: Whatever this following the Neil song has me stumped.
