Air Supply- Making Love Out of Nothing At All (Damn. I seriously considered not listing this one, but that wouldn't have been keeping with the spirit of this thread) [:I]

But no one can doubt now that you have balls. The proper thing to do would have been to keep clicking Next until some bizarre-ass track came up that only the singer and his mom had probably heard, a track that even you hadn't listened to yourself but nevertheless were supremely eager to put out there with an accompanying inner monologue that might have gone something like "Hah! Take that you provincial bitches!! Here's the esoteric shit that I, a true new wave connoisseur, listens too." [:D]

Blir - you absolutely crack me up here! Minus the balls, of which I thankfully have none, I was thinking the same thing you so aptly put into words[:D]

Did I miss a cover version of The Killing Moon by the Furs or is that just bad tagging in your music collection? That's an Echo & the Bunnymen track as far as I remember!

What is the source of the Lloyd Cole track? - is it on an official release? I thought I had a pretty complete Lloyd collection.

Thanks,
Ralph
