BOS2 "Beat It"

I still have a fond memory of going to a bar years ago, and the jukebox had both "Beat It" and "Eat It" by Weird Al.

So of course I played both songs in order...  :-)
Now I'm eight bits...

This set was reminiscent of the DC-era Renee sets.

Virtually all FF's/LN's/Hits, a not-really-KFOG-but-still-not-particularly-ballsy-pop-hit (Beat It), and one song all the way completely out of left field. (Although, this one wasn't *quite* as snoozy as what we usually got in that model.)

glieben glauben globen. Def Effin' Leppard, dude!

And we heard "Pretty Fly For A White Guy" earlier this week! Wonder if Renee realizes that.
I don't get it.

Me neither.

There's a very funny explanation of this on Wikipedia.

BOS2 "Beat It"

A big LN from me.  I would have thought it difficult to have a track from this album that wasn't,
but Human Nature and Wanna Be Startin' Somthing have each only appeared once
on 10@10, and P.Y.T. would have been a bust-out.

Yep... a high LNQ.  1983 is a very strong year, and any set from it should be so much better than
this.
