You guys both need to go to your respective listening places and put the first (and really only Modern Lovers') album on. Put it on repeat and don't come out until you know every nuance of that perfect album.
Ericg, you got one?

"This is my main concern with Obama; what if he has been groomed since childhood to blend in with the zionists and infidels? What if he has been led along by a radical islamic terrorist organization and positioned to become an influential politician?
What if Obama gets into White House and turns out to be some crazy muslim terrorist? What do we do then? We'll be pretty screwed. It could happen." -- by some fucking nutjob
I'll fake it through the day With some help from Johnny Walker Red Send the poison rain down the drain To put bad thoughts in my head

"Miss Misery" - Elliott Smith. Great song, by the way.
"Tell me what to do Now the tank is dry Now this wheel is flat And you know what else? Guess what I received In the mail today Words of deep concern from my little brother"
"I pushed a penny in the toilet door then I quickly stepped inside to some graffitti and a greyhound paper and the gentle thought of suicide a razorblade would make the perfect bride"

Hint #2: The next line after each of these two verses contains the title of the song.
OH NO! I can't believe I forgot to check this thread for so long! One of my fav songs/albums EVER!
OMG Vit, you have no idea how much brighter my day just got. A sincere thank-you

OK. British band from the late-70s/early-80s. Three albums to their credit, all of which pretty much sank without a trace. They've only recently been released on CD.
Their lead vocalist is a seminal figure in the Men's Movement, as well as the creator of his own malt whiskey.

I looked this one up. I've never heard of them, but I'm intrigued. I'll be tracking down those reissues. Thanks for the heads up, BobA!

Shoot, I don't remember the song, but the band was Doll by Doll. You should post another.

Down on the disco floor They make their profit From the things they sell To help you cob off

Sorry, I never check this thread... here's mine:
And all I see is little dots Some are smeared and some are spots Feels like a murder but that's alright Somebody said there's too much light Pull down the shade and it's alright It'll be over in a minute or two.
Need a hint?

This band is really good. Just checked them out the other day because DoA or GvB or CMG (nice little ring to that bit) reviewed the reissue and then I noticed p4k did too!
This might be a gimme, but you guys usually make this too hard:
"I have no kicks against modern jazz Unless they try to play it too darned fast And change the beauty of the melody Until it sound just like a symphony"
==== What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done; there is nothing new under the sun.
"Rock 'n' Roll Music"-- Um, the band in the movie Backbeat did a pretty terrific version of it.

Dirty old river, must you keep rolling Flowing into the night People so busy, makes me feel dizzy Taxi light shines so bright
Hint: The greatest song ever!
