15 July 2011: It's... 1988
« on: July 14, 2011, 07:20:35 PM »
I love Heathers and all, but this is getting ridic.  I've requested Freak Scene and Christine - none of which will get played, I'm sure.

so the weekly pattern from here on in: two '80s, a '90s, a '00s and a '60s/'70s either/or. Swell.

I just requested

Lita Ford "Kiss Me Deadly"
Steve Earle "The Devil's Right Hand"
Debbie Harry, "Liar Liar"

I *really* wanted Gladys & the Pips' "Love Overboard" and Living Colour's "Glamour Boys" but since we heard the Pips today and LC yesterday...

Yikes... people actually wanna hear "Red Red Wine", "Roll With it", Traveling Wilburys and Phil Collins.  Maybe they're working undercover for DC.

Some controversy re: the year -- IMDB says Heathers (which was AL's clue) is from 1988; Wiki sez it was released 3/31/89.

Following that further, the "more info" link reveals that Heathers was released in Italy in October of '88, but didn't hit the screens anywhere else until the US release on the date Geoff lists above. And the rest of its releases in Europe, Japan and Australia were over the following two years, finishing in France in July of '91.

Nonetheless, it appears we are going to '88. Perhaps the whole set will be in Italian? :)
