how this song became opopular remains (wait for it) an Enignma.
Sometimes it seems like they just randomly throw a dance beat behind something, and see if people buy it.

I adore this song, so BOS...although the attempt at irony was blatantly generic.

I wish she would have played 2 Live Crew.

we're together in the old farts club today.  And I've been agreeing with FP in g-snipes lately too.  It's opposite week!

LN-infinity Gary Moore, good as his playing is.

as LN as this cut is, I have to BOS it for the mere presence of Peter Green's legendary Les Paul.

Predictions: Sinead O'Connor, Alannah Myles, INXS, Aerosmith, Faith No More, B-52s, UB40 and either MC Hammer or Vanilla Ice.

Only one prediction came true this time around.

Midnight Oil, Jane's Addiction, and Enigma are the three that were also in the previous 1990 set.

and that one was plenty -- but the set was still pretty bad.

Awful set. I'll BOS Midnight Oil if for no other reason than that I enjoyed it the first 1,000 times I heard it. But man.... not even a semi-hey to be found.

EDIT: Upon further review, I've upgraded this set to "Meh".

Renee's vote makes it a 2-way tie for BOS: Vanilla Ice & Gary Moore; VHM SRV.

I recently purchased a 5 cd collection of GM, including Still Got the Blues and Blues For Greeny, a collection of Peter Green covers.  Pretty cool set, for like 12.99 (can't remember exactly what I paid, but it wasn't much).

Oy. Star Spangled Roseanne. 

a prediction comes true, and sadly it's "Ice Ice Baby". One of the uber-uber-WOSes of all time.

Sure, it's awful, but everytime I hear it I picture Jim Carey on "Living Color" doing his "White White, Baby" parody, and it makes me happy.
