I think I know who your favorite FB commenter is  :P

You and I both requested Lisa Stansfield, albeit different songs.

Michael Hutchence's accent is at its best on "Bitter Tears."  VHM.

Probably one of my top 5 favorite INXS songs. Didn't really get a fair shake top 40-wise.

Not that I'd want to hear anything else by them.  ("Power of Love," anyone?)  BOS1 to the de-lovely and delicious Lady Miss Kier.

A Madchester moment!  BOS2 (and Best of Week candidate) to the Charlatans U.K., "The Only One I Know."

Loved Pump Up the Volume at the time, though I haven't seen it in, I suppose, 20 years.

But I didn't realize "been there, done that" was an operative phrase back then.  WOS to this vaguely T-Headsish thing that says it.

Oddly, I never saw "Pump Up The Volume" until December 2009. Great movie. Also appreciated Slater's roles in "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and "The Office". Career rebirth?

BOS1 to the Charlatans UK.
BOS2 to this "Been There, Done That" song.  The phrase in question is repeated a bit too many times, but sounds pretty good.
