11 May 2011: it's... 1982
« on: May 10, 2011, 08:15:00 PM »
The thread has just begun on FB.

Lawd help us: requests for "New World Man", "Steppin' Out" and "Abracadabra"...

Oh, and some guy called  "Start Me Up" the "worst song the Stones have ever recorded". Worse than "Emotional Rescue" and "Fool to Cry"??

Welcome back!

worse still: Giter Dunn wants CSN's "Southern Cross".

Interesting: someone asked for TinTin's orig "Kiss Me", which I completely forgot was out in '82 -- I remember the '85 version credited to Stephen "TinTin" Duffy (which I requested in our last 1985 set).

I can't figure this Giter Dunn out.  What's his deal??  I must say, I always enjoy Dave Dirt's requests.

I've requested 88 Lines About 44 Women, but doubt she'd play it since he says "shit" in it.  It was a Quake & Live 105 staple back in the day.  I can't remember if there was a censored version or if they just played it as is.  Also requested Angst In My Pants and...wait for it...Gloria by Laura Branagan.  Guilty pleasure from hell for me and I ain't ashamed of it!

Yeah, Giter is a strange egg. He'll request a few great tunes and the follow them up with total shite. No accounting for taste. But he does have a sense of humor.

Dave used to play 88 Lines... in his Thanksgiving Turkey sets, so he must have edited the shit out of it.  ;)
Let's get right to it.

It's on my wish-list too -- one of the great pop singles of the '80s, IMHO and a fab Donna Summer imitation (I thought it *was* her the first time I heard it).  And if you've never heard the original Italian version...

I Confess I didn't like the 80s, but I do like the English Beat.
