BOS, Talking Heads. 

BTW, I'm currently reading Byrnes' book.  I like it so far, will give more when I am finished.

Maybe the surprise is the lack of non-long obnoxious clips.  Which has been nice, but too bad it's cancelled out by the 100% LN's, so far.

It seems to me there's been improvement in the "absurdly long clip" department, but it may just be me.

Talking Heads "Road To Nowhere"

Indeed...

At least the 1985 Pazz & Jop critics enjoyed this one.

At least it's not LN, but it's not a huge surprise IMO.  This one was in fairly prominent rotay during the DC era and has appeared on 10@10 before.

and we close with a mild surprise: Madonna.  VHM.

1.Look at Little Sister-Stevie Ray Vaughn
2.Don't Stop the Dance-Bryan Ferry
3.Take Me Home-Phil Collins
4.Summer of 69-Bryan Adams
5.Cry-Godley and Crème
6.Fortress Around Your Heart-Sting
7.Road to Nowhere-Talking Heads
(Bond. James Bond)
8.A View to a Kill-Duran Duran
(Sandanista. Good Clash album. Bad for Nicaragua)
9.Suspicous Minds-Fine Young Cannibals
10. Material Girl-Madonna

as FP points out on FB... this was very MTV.  Only thing missing was "Money For Nothing"

Yep.  Although AL did spice things up fairly often, credit where credit is due--Renee seems to have even less of an aversion to playing these types of songs.

"I wanna listen to the whole record..."

If she played Like A Virgin in its entirety for today's 10@10, that would definitely have been a surprise.   :P

AL has a problem with Madonna personally. She wrote about it once.

As in, she met Madonna once and she was a real beyotch, or AL just has an issue with the way she's marketed herself?
