Genrepalooza Presents: FG Radio - Tons of Lithium but very little Chill (2 Viewers)

182.8 or 12 - Scritti Politti - Perfect Way ( 80s on 8 )

The perfect way to close out the channel. Miles covered the tune which is pretty high praise.


80s On 8

181.YM - Easy Lover - Phillip Bailey & Phil Collins

Oh how I used to love this song. It’s impossible for me to hear it and not sing along as loud as I can.  I dare you to try.

182.YM - Be Near Me - ABC

I had to buy a second cassette of How to Be a Zillionaire because I wore the first one out.  One of those albums that definitely reminds me of a specific point in my life whenever I hear one of its songs.  I debated taking any of four or five songs from this album, but decided to go with this classic.  Surprised none of their other songs were taken yet. 
 
Some outstanding last-minute 80s being scooped up today.

I'd like it noted for the record that The Beatles Channel was up today and I did not take any songs for that channel.

Well sure, you might have preferred that to my 13+-minute bass song, but that's because you're scared of That Bass.

 
How did a Bob Dylan song end up on 80s On 8?  That’s just plain wrong - total vibe killer.

Well, roll them out - krista is in here bragging about her 4 min solo and calling us out for not appreciating the bass.   
It's too late now. Pulling Teeth was a gimme and short but wanted to mix it up some . It is unusual that in 180+ picks I have taken no Maiden and only 1 Metallica song . Lots of places to put them when the new catagories get rolled.

Mine are also bolded. Do fans get a vote or something like that? Or are you an uber journalist on the side, Doc Oc?

Hard to believe that King is in as a writer but not as a performer. And that Tina is in with Ike but not by herself. 

I've said my piece about Rundgren enough.

 
Jam On songs are just a wee bit longer than others. 

Jam On -- 26 songs, 3 hours and 22 minutes

Springsteen -- 26 songs, 2 hours and 8 minutes

50s on 5 -- 26 songs, 1 hour and 11 minutes 

The two picked so far today have totaled 24 minutes. One minute shy of the 7 songs picked for Country Rock.

Was going to post but you beat me to it.

Maiden is my 2nd fav band but Judas Preist should go in before them.

Pat Benetar was the 2nd highest vote getter last year but isn't even an option this year?

I think you should only be able to get in the HOF once. Athletes are voted in based on their careers not by their positions

 
The song is maybe a better fit for the Country Rock playlist and didn’t want to steal a song maybe someone was waiting with for when the category was rolled again.
I like it when someone drafts a song I was going to add to a specific playlist. I get to pick another song, plus the one I originally wanted is on there now. 

 
Here are my choices stunning Carole King is not in there yet...

183.8 or 12 - Grateful Dead - U.S. Blues (Live at the Great American Music Hall 8/13/75) (Jam On)

The concert was recorded for a live radio broadcast in 1975 and released in 1991 as One From the Vault. 

The Great American Music Hall is one of my favorite concert venues in SF. It was built shortly after the 1906 earthquake and has spent most of its history as a theater.  The ornate interior is gorgeous and capacity is only around 500.  I've spent some magical nights within its walls.

 
53 more than Bruce Willis

ETA:  Willis has the same number of Hot 100 hits as The Clash
Hit songs are one of those things that don’t matter but also kind of do. Like box office for a movie. Being a huge hit matters but less and less as time passes. Eventually quality and influence surpass it.
