The only time I heard anyone mention the cure was back in the 80's.
And the wedding singer.

Its more like a blast from the past. Didn't know anyone even remembered.
Kinda like whipping out a name like Lisa Lisa or Venom. I guess I wasn't ready for it.

The Cure rocks.

And the 80's comment is kind of ironic on a Fox board...

I was more of an R.E.M./Teenage Head follower myself.
Don't get me wrong, I don't hate The Cure

I am so going to get it for posting this...:beatyoass:

T-Bird CD changer, Disc 1:

1. Tears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World
2. Midnight Oil - Beds are Burning
3. Van Halen - Right Now
4. Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party
5. Guns n' Roses - Sweet Child of Mine (original, full version)
6. Simple Minds - Don't You (Forget About Me)
7. Genesis - Land of Confusion
8. Madness - Our House
9. David Bowie - Modern Love
10. INXS - Listen Like Thieves
11. Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer
12. Bananarama - Venus
13. The Cure - Friday I'm in Love
14. Duran Duran - Come Undone
15. Eurythmics - Would I Lie to You?
16. The Bangles - Walk Like an Egyptian

I might put something else in place of #14 but otherwise this is by far the best mix CD I've ever burned. It's meant to be listened to straight through, without skipping around. I spent hours thinking the pacing through from one song to the next. The guy at the autosound shop made me stand there while he copied down the exact list and resolved to make one for himself :D

Good substitutes for #14 would be either:

R.E.M. - Orange Crush
R.E.M. - It's the End of the World (As We Know It)

Probably Orange Crush more. ITEOTW would be better finishing out a CD (which is where I put it on another disc), but in this case I'm using Bangles for that.

I have both on other discs which is why they aren't on #1. When I made mix CD's one rule I used was never to put the same group on a CD twice, and to look *very* closely at how they pace from one song to the next (so for instance, the Duran Duran song is more subdued and sets up Eurythmics perfectly).

When I did my classic rock mix, I found Hells Bells by ACDC to be THE PERFECT opening song.  Starts off with slow guitar, then slowly picks up into a good, exciting beat.
