Mondegreen?  My ears say "I don't want to go out. I want to stay in, get things done."

Meanwhile, BOS to Elton John, his sparkly glasses and even sparklier models.  This video made quite an impression on me when I was 10.

I'n so excited EJ's still standing!  BOS -- 2nd time this month that Bob's played a mid-'80s Elton pop hit, more than Dave's done in years.

Live versions of hits from previous years are almost never a good idea on 10@10 -- a cheat, IMHO. And so I reject this live "Solsbury Hill". My heart's not going boom-boom-boom.

BOS3 JCM. "Play Git-tah"

ETA: OMFG -- Bob didn't censor the line about "macho shit". Somebody's being docked a day's pay, I betcha.

Haha, you can sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" to the first stanza of this song (Heart?).

VHM this Heart (?) rarity. The Drive's music log feature isn't working today.

Glad I'm not the only one who was unsure.

 David Bowie - Modern Love 
 Elton John - I'm Still Standing 
 Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill (live) 
 Def Leppard - Photograph 
 The Police - Every Breath You Take 
 The Moody Blues - Blue World 
 John Mellencamp - Play Guitar 
 Elvis Costello - Every Day I Write The Book 
 Yes - Changes 
 Heart - How Can I Refuse 

That Moodies tune was new to me; Dave's never played it
