I've been trying to find out who does a couple of songs for years and years. They were on an old cassette, long gone, given to me by a mate, circa 1982. One song seemed to be about a blender, with male vocals, and featured a blender solo in the middle. The other had female vocals and keyboards, and the lyrics were something like "Boys will be boys, they smile and they're sweet but they aren't always kind--boys will be boys and I usually find that the boys who are boys tend to love their own kind". Or something similar. Any hints or suggestions of who performed either of these would be greatly appreciated.

The Second one may be Data - "Boys Will Be Boys" from Opera Electronica (1981)

PEGASUSreplies:
That's the NuBeams--"Oh Chico", featured a blender solo in the middle.
The album is Up Another Octave Transmission, put out by a radio station in Southern California--KNAC i think, back when their format was strictly new wave and 50s oldies rock, mingled sweetly. The other song you were looking for was...
"Boys will be Boys," by the Barbies. The line was actually,
"they're suave & they're sweet, but they aren't always ki-i-ind, boys will be boys and I usually find that the boys who are boys tend to love their own kind".
Berlin's first song was on that album too, before they went bigtime.[:(]
