Renee's feelin' sassy. So's Broooooooooooce.  But "Glory Days" is pretty damn LN at this point.

"When LNs Fly".  I have heard this a half-dozen times in the past week -- Kiss-FM plays it as often as KFOG used to play "Under Pressure".  Boy could this set've used "Darling Nikki"

uber-LN3: "People are People", which Live 105 plays as often as... yeah, you know.  And this one wasn't a charted 45 until May of '85 (shocker!) What I wouldn't give for "Everything Counts".

You might think I'm hysterical, but Oy: Cars. Uber-LN4.

BOS2 Style Council, "You're the Best Thing" tho' it's not exactly rare either.  Rarer than "Ever-Changing Moods", I suppose.

The Style Council "You're the Best Thing"

Rarity of the Day, and my BOS so far. HM to Joe Jackson, and LNs all around beyond that.


ETA: "You're the Best Thing" was one of the two or three songs that Style Council played when they opened Live Aid the next year, iirc.
