No need to apologize about “Kokomo”. I have a great misunderstanding for the general dismissal of the song, yet acceptance of other Beach Boys early hits, some of which were recorded with such little care but regarded rather well. “I Get Around” comes to mind (Brian Wilson was creatively breaking away at the time). I think it fits well into their canon, if filed under their earlier work.

And plus, most things with Muppets are intrinsically better.

My favorite song from the album, and possibly an all-time Prince fave for me, is “If I Was Your Girlfriend”. I mean, it’s true to what you were speaking to earlier: the bridge between his synth-pop and softened drum kicks of yore and dipping his toe into his more dirty funkier period. The lyrical flip is great too.

This sincerely sounds like it was recorded in a heavy Modern Warfare session.

Best use of War? “The Cisco Kid” when Avon flooded the prison with hot shots on The Wire.

Pic sort of related.

I was sincerely concerned that LEN would not be included. Thank you for giving me that relief Tom, in remembrance of Brendan Canning best group (BSS a close second, clearly)

Who told Fiend he could have a record cover with decent graphic design? We need to take him back to the N.O.

Despite bellyaching of modern day MTV, and deserved it is, I still admire what they were trying to do back then. I mean, the temperature of music on the radio was different than what was on the channel, which was bad and good. They were playing more European music because they had been making videos first, and they were also playing anyone who could give them a video, referring to punk and new wave acts. Though, it does hurt that Blacks were largely invisible in its inception, and it took a stink from major music figures to eradicate that.

My point is, many of us as so called “music lovers” have a lot of fun making fun of MTV (that has become as cliché as well), but I would posit that there was probably a favorite moment the channel you share from your youth as well. And that’s something worth celebrating.
