No, I took care of those in my typical scorched-earth style.

I thought it might be a Rush song.

Yes, nicely done but I fear that JG is making this a Devo vs Soft Cell...

I hear a lot of Devo and Soft Cell on my Sirius stations of choice. Both good stuff.

Thank you!
for the record, MY vs. thread was a social commentary on how sick I was at seeing those threads.

If they listened to DEVO's lyrics, they'd see the irony in choosing that song.

I've loved DEVO since about 1978. That is all.

Soft Cell shouldn't participate in any study of devolution in modern society.

C'mon, Bob1 played a Gibson L6-S just like mine, and Mark Mothersbaugh put his Tele through a band saw and cut off all the bits that weren't mission-critical. How can you not like 'em?
