not a fan of Bog Country sorry

 

I'd go for:

U2- Achtung Baby, preferred track Love is Blindness, but One is also ok

Depeche Mode-Violator, preferred track Enjoy the Silence but don't mind Personal Jesus either

Paula Abdul - Forever your girl, preferred track - Straight Up

Wow I chose a bad time to miss a session, spoiled for choice on those #2s:

 

Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence

Guns N Roses - November Rain

U2 - One [though my personal fave is Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses]

 

Loads of other good ones: anything by The Beach Boys, The Jam or Tears For Fears, Pet Shop Boys - Being Boring, The Waterboys - The Whole Of The Moon and the title track of Bruce Springsteen - Lucky Town to name just a few! (Simply The Best is Tina Turner not Prince btw)

Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence is a must!!

Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus is a must!!

Electronic - Getting Away With It

Tears for Fears - Laid so Low (Tears Roll Down) THIS IS SO UNDERRATED plus was the actual single from the best of album

Prince - Diamonds and Pearls / Thunder

U2 - Even Better Than the Real Thing / Mysterious Ways / One

Roxette - Fading Like a Flower

Pet Shop Boys - So Hard / Being Boring

James - Born of Frustration

INXS - Suicide Blonde

Paula Abdul - Straight Up

 

 

Clearly some #1 albums need to be sacrificed so that these can all be played

Seconding the Roxette / Guns ‘N’ Roses / Electronic nominations

Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence

Tears For Fears - Sowing the Seeds of Love

U2 - Mysterious Ways

in perspective, it's insane that U2 and Michael Jackson picked the same release date

this was Jacko's follow up to Bad and U2's first proper studio album since The Joshua Tree

My requests:

 

Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence (Violator)

Big Country - Chance (Greatest Hits)

The Beach Boys - Heroes And Villains (Summer Dreams)

Pet Shop Boys - Jealousy (Behaviour)

The Waterboys - The Whole Of The Moon (The Best Of)

Guns N' Roses - November Rain (Use Your Illusion I)

Tears For Fears - Sowing The Seeds Of Love (Tears Roll Down)

 

James - Born Of Frustration (from Seven)

Inspiral Carpets - This Is How It Feels

Oh that’s a great tune from Inspiral Carpets - second that too. I guess the bar will be raised to 3 nominations at this rate!

U2 - One

Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence

Tears for Fears - Sowing the Seeds of Love (making up for missing it last week!)

Electronic - Getting Away With It

 

A great week for runners up!

Sorry to be annoying but notoriously Electronic's debut album didn't include Getting away with it

maybe have been included in some later format or recently when they add all kinds of stuff to spotify albums

Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence (Personal Jesus would also do)

Inspiral Carpets - This Is How It Feels

Pet Shop Boys- Being Boring (They seem to get a lot of bonus plays but I really like this one)

It’s on every copy I’ve ever owned, albeit I can see from Discogs that you’re right it wasn’t on all of them. How odd.

Aiming to start in 20 minutes, might be a minute or two late x
