2NG's retro chart today is March 1984, leading off with Tina Turner's lovely, forgotten cover of "Help".

followed by (OMFG!) Soul Sonic Force "Renegades of Funk", Bananarama "Robert DeNiro's Waiting", Sade "Your Love is King" and the Weather Girls "It's Raining Men" -- HAAAAAY!

OMFWTFLOL: the Fraggles with the theme from Fraggle Rock!!

and Tracey Ullman turning Madness' "My Girl's Mad at Me" into "My Guy's etc"

OMGWTFLOL2: Mel Brooks rapping about Hitler. srsly? "heil, heil, ziggity-heil!/ we gonna whip it on da people Teutonic style!"  :o

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!

JJ is killing me tonite on KPOO. Ralph Carter -- he played little Michael on Good Times -- doing his disco interp of "When You're Young and in Love", circa '75. Amazing.

Listening to Barry Scott's "Lost 45s" for the first time in ages -- the player keeps cuuting off songs in the middle to play extra commercials. CBS/Viacom: you suck.
