Uber-BOS4 Bronski Beat!

This was a fairly common gold on Energy 92.7. :(

Did they also play "Hit That Perfect Beat"?

I don't recall hearing it on there.  They also liked "Smalltown Boy," of course.

"and the irrepressable Mary Lou Retton, who became the first American dwarf to take home a gold medal..."

A classic rock staple (hello, K-Fox!) but BOS4 VH, "Jump", a great pop single.

BOS5 Van Halen.  Nice to hear this alongside Icicle Works, Bronski Beat, Thomas Dolby, etc.

I'm surprised at the love for Jump. For me, it's the most overplayed Van Halen tune in their library.

LN3: Nena and her big balloons.

Still, this has been the least-annoying set of the week, so far.

I was just thinking about the furor over the axing of the marathon. Can you imagine listening to five of THESE sets in a row? Aural lobotomy.

Is this Howie? And is this song 11?

Indeed, extra frink points for playing the German version.  (Shoutout to Mshray, who popped in here briefly last week.)

Not recognizing this one either, but its verses kind of remind me of those cheesy Childrens' Hospital 100% jingles we hear on the stream.

Yep, BOS for Howard Jones. (Not counting...)

BOS5 HoJo.

Did Renee really just call him Bruce "Co-bourne"?

BOS6 Howard Jones.

This is quite possibly my favorite set of the Renee era so far.  I'm going to tell them that, because I want to hear more sets with 6 BOS's and minimal LN's.

Yep, a slip of the tongue I'd say, but odd that she didn't fix it.

No Alanis, please.
