13 May 2013: it's... 1988

The clue is something about Windows 2.1... of course last week the clue pointed to 1990 and she did '89.

Hornsby with a song that could've easily been covered by Huey Lewis or Bob Seger.

Bruce Hornsby "Look Out Any Window"

Minor hit from the late summer of 88... pleasant enough, and would fit an Earth Day set.

Hornsby's Greatest Hits collection features his version of "Jacob's Ladder" (which he wrote).

OMFG: DC cribs from AL's playbook and gives us Sade's fab "Paradise". A very welcome BOS1.

BOS, Sadie.

a dog needs a home
a shelter
from pigs on the wing

Guessing that Sade tune is as rare as we get.

I've always loved "Orange Crush" but it's pretty LN at this point.

would love to hear her in any year she's "legal".  Dave played "Smooth Operator" a few times but this is (I think) the only other song of hers we've heard here -- AL played it and I believe it was a Sunday Gal request at the time.

I think "No Ordinary Love" would qualify for either 92 or 93.

Yeah, "Orange Crush" isn't very adventerous at this point.
