VHM Sting's "Russians", which really needed to be preceded by a Reagan "we begin bombing in 5 minutes" clip.

Wonder if the Reagan "go ahead, make my day" sound bite preceding JCM was meant for this.

No, I think it was meant to precede R.O.C.K. in the mothafuckin' U.S.A, but Russians was a continuation of the theme. A two-fer segue? Wow, they're getting really creative here. :\


And safe to say this Thompson Twins is our rarity of the day.

Let's get right to it.

LN5 INXS. I also associate "Kiss the Dirt" with 1986.

Has Sun City gotten much 10@10 airplay? I was half-expecting it out of the South Africa clip. It received quite a bit of publicity and MTV airtime in its day.

it seems just a year or 3 ago that "And We Danced" showed up as a welcome rarity, and I commented that it was a song I liked more now than I had in '85.  But it seems we've heard it a bunch of times in the last few years.  LN6.

it's never made an appearance here (Rob has played it on the Peak, iirc) and it was on my wish list in the AL request days but she never got to it.

no, Renee, I didn't notice a "nice constant beat" -- the Sting song is slow as molasses, for one thing.
