Forget the naughty lyrics, the TRUE crime is the overuse of the Gary Numan riff! (I have a proper video link of the non-12" version around here somewhere....hang on...it's funny too)

This one didn't publish yesterday! It's out of order now. The world has ended.

And I guess here is where my imagination ran out. This song is beautiful, though - it's actually a traditional Vietnamese song ("Ca Dao Mẹ") and how it ended up on the first JAMs album is just another one of those KLF things. I share this one about twice a year.

Another one from Imagination - I originally learned about this from the first few lines being sampled, like, 25 years later. Weird right? I should probably find them songs and see if THEY can be linked. Yeah! Give me some time...

I'm not sure if there's much of a theme this week, but we could probably use our Imagination and come up with one. Happy Monday! Wait is this really NSFW? DUBIOUS

Here's kind of an OK Chicago song followed by THE GREATEST MOST METAL CHICAGO SONG - you can do both of these at karaoke, by the way...and you should

Geez, it's October. Where's the time go? Didn't I ask this a month ago? We're goin' DANCY this week. Here's a great track based on one of the "Miami Vice" themes. The lyrics of the chorus were my MySpace profile description a million years ago. Happy Monday!

I can't explain Monday, but it looks like we're moving into ZTT territory for the rest of the week. I guess by way of link....this is ALSO very eighties? It's also a longish dance mix I really enjoy. Maybe you will enjoy it too!

CRZ-271
Frankie Goes to Hollywood

My mom really loves Moody Blues, although by this point in their career she probably wasn't as excited about them. She did like their "comeback" later, though. This was before that. Weird to think this stuff was on the radio back then. Have a great weekend!

Another "learned about 'em from Letterman" selection. Today is my mother's birthday! Two years ago today my wife broke up with me! There's only 100 days left this year! I have no idea what I'm doing!

That's a good Wall of Sound 12" (YouTube: Mekon f/ Roxanne Shante: What's Going On Mekon Full 12")
21.9.16 07:23 
You know, now that Letterman retired I really have no way of learning about new music involving watching late night television because I gave up on all late night television. I watch the same reruns on Adult Swim every night, or I go out for a Pokéwalk, or both. Anyway, here's a more recent song I liked because it reminded me of much less recent songs. I also like to do it at karaoke, although I don't know how many other people like me doing it at karaoke!

This one was a heavy favourite at the Target Center during Timberwolves games - remind me to find the original and tack it on as a comment later. (Did I share this one already? This feels familiar.)

Some more "recent" selections this week. (I guess, to me, "recent" means "after 1989") This song has a zillion remixes and they all rule, but here's the original. Happy Monday!

CRZ-263
Lily Allen

As the year goes on it looks less and less like I've grouped these selections into any kind of cohesion. I have no idea why this one came up on this day. By now I'm just typing in words to fill the space. Are you still reading?

This was the last 45 I bought. Fortunately, it had a tiny hole so I wasn't breaking my No Adapter Needed promise when I played it at Day Block a few months back. Also, this video is a trip.

I kept wondering if a theme would develop this week but "longer tracks" seems to be the best we can come up with. Here's an awesome B side that later snuck onto the CD.

CRZ-259
The Sisters of Mercy
Colours
1987

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TWupB-JJZU
14.9.16 11:23 
This one was included in an Essential Mix and I got a little obsessed with it. It took years before an online copy was available, but nowadays you could get it for under a buck on Amazon, I think. I think that's how I ended up with my digital copy. I'm boring myself even. That's OK, this track is over ten minutes so you need a little more to read.

One of my most favourite Orb remixes, back when they were still called Orbital mixes (before Orbital complained). Don't know how familiar you are with this Depeche Mode B side, but believe me the original version is NOTHING like this one!

I really love when The Orb takes a known track and distorts it into something almost recognisable. Here's a pretty good example. I'll have another good one tomorrow! (By the way...this one wasn't on YouTube, so I put it there myself. If I can successfully avoid the copyright police, I'll try doing this more in the future, so let me know if you have any requests!)
