17 Feb 2011: It's... 1981!
« on: February 16, 2011, 05:02:35 PM »
All is well - Miss AL is taking requests on FB.  Phew...

Bust out the leg warmers!
I've requested Haircut 100, Altered Images and OMD.  Like, OMG.  :)

"Winning" has been requested at least two times, along with "Who's Crying Now", "Cool Love", "Slow Hand" and "The Breakup Song". If "Kiss On My List" gets played, I will boycott this year (that's the only song for which I've gotten into an auto accident while listening to).

Well, after three days of not taking requests, she sure got a hell of a lot of 'em for this set. Guess people were saving 'em up. Too bad 95% of what they're asking for is crap.  Man, you'd think some of these folks *never* listen to the radio.

My luck, Thursday is the first day this week I haven't had something to do or someplace to be at both 10am and 10pm. I'll have to trust AL to pull the gems out of this pile of dreck.

Dave used to play part of this "Searchin" song in Mystery Year sets. Santana? At least it ain't "Winning".

Oh dear god. I had really hoped we wouldn't sink this low. (Dives for the volume knob.)

Here's hoping the second half of the set holds some redemption.

WOS Tubes.  I'm regretting sticking around for this set.  Off to do laundry.

Was this from a movie soundtrack?  Valley Girl?  Fast Times?

The most overplayed Go-Go's song.  I'll take it!

Their lips are sealed!

Maybe we'll get a Go-Gos/Fun Boy Three double play on this song.
