HM Billy's Blue Highway, a lesser played cut from Rebel Yell.   Not as good as FFF or EWAF, but it's got Steve Stevens!   I saw him (and Steve) in December at the Fillmore and really enjoyed it.

BOS3 the Pointers -- AL's been neglecting pop/soul in the '80s.  Betcha we get a "Jump" twin-spin with VH to follow.

Giant BOS for Repo Man!  One of my favorite movies that I haven't seen for years and years.

I thought for a moment it was from a John Hughes movie, but when I heard "acid" I changed my mind.  I've never seen Pretty In Pink, and have it in my Netflix queue.  Looking forward to it and OMD and all that.   :P

Simple Minds sure mastered that epic production sound.  BOS I assume this is called To The Waterfall?
ETA: I misheard him, he's going to "walk on up to the waterfront."

TANC: couldn't sleep last night, popped in my headphones and heard TLC's Waterfalls.   Great song, and will join RGM in requesting it when the right year comes around.

Last summer TIME.com ran a listicle of summer songs, and in the entry for "Cruel Summer," referred to Bananarama as a one-hit wonder.  I nearly blew a gasket.  Thankfully they rewrote it at my insistence.
Hooray for you!

I was surprised to hear my first two fb suggestions played at the beginning as I was driving around!
