Beaches, bub. Turn in yer gay card!

For the Boys is far more tolerable, actually.

At long last, a legitimate BOS for moi: "Chains of Love."  Apparently Erasure's two-week residency at the Irving Plaza got *rave* reviews.  I do wish I liked the new album better.

But G'n'R's gonna win, yeah.

Ah - "Wind Beneath My Wings," and alla that.  Gotcha.

As you know, my membership card was rescinded a LONG time ago.  Gypsy ain't got no home.

Dude, even I knew it was Beaches.

And good on Charlene for making cash a second time 'round on that silly song.

HM to Erasure. I didn't know about this band back in '88, either. But, I'm glad they were around.

Geez, this set won't freaking end.....

Second time today for "Fast Car."  Gnite ladies & gents, you've been wonderful.  zzzzzzzzzzzzzz


(great song, just not in the mood today)

ETA: Anyone remember the "In Living Color" sketch where the woman playing Tracy Chapman writes songs based on random things she sees out her window?  It was very, very well done.  (And if someone's already mentioned it here, sorry.)

LOL! I have and indeed I've mentioned it back on the old board (I think). No need to apologize, though- it's hilarious. Unfortunately, it's destroyed this song for me entirely!

Shoot, I'm gonna miss HFH tomorrow: filling in a copy edit shift at the Voice, and I'm not even sure they have the necessary media apps installed.

In the meantime, Stevie dials in the biggest hit of 1988, which tells me everything I need to know about this year.  (Chicago's "Look Away" did the same thing for '89.)


I'll miss it too, thanks to a goddamn meeting at 10, so I'll have to wait for the replay.  Surely The Voice of all places has Windows media player on its PCs?

Actually, the Voice is a nearly all-Mac environment.
