22 Oct 2010: it's... 1981
« on: October 21, 2010, 09:01:42 PM »
Yes, someone just requested "Jessie's Girl" and "Bette Davis Eyes"  ::)

Me, I'm asking for

The Clash, "Hitsville UK"
Grace Jones, "Pull Up to the Bumper"
Yoko, "Walking on Thin Ice"
Joey Scarbury "Greatest American Hero (Believe it or Not)"

and we start with one of the biggest (and most annoying) 1981 'trinas of the Morey era: "Winning".

The Kinks song is NTM.  The opening reminded me of a Supergrass song from the '90s called "We're Alright."

It's def been played on 10@10 before (and It's "Better Things", not "Better Days" -- my bad)

I just heard that Arthur clip earlier this week!  BOS to "While You See a Chance," a great motto for the age of perpetual reinvention.
