Why yes, we do play requests, but we need to have ‘em.
You’ve seen our list of songs, but we’re always looking for ways to spend time alone with our instruments re-learning a song we co-wrote back in the 80’s.
Add a song to the comments.
Corey’s on house arrest for three months due to a parole violation, so he can only leave to do shows. He’ll be watching the list and advising me and Corey about what songs to woodchuck on.
No, we won’t do “Sunglasses at Night”. It’s just not that good. Even Corey agrees.

carry on my wayward son
Mr Roboto
some sappy ballads
Get some Pretenders and Talking Heads in there. Particularly “And She Was.”
[...] of new songs, there have been a couple of requests over in the requests requests requests area but not enough to get me to skip AA meetings and blow our sobriety by doing enough Bolivian [...]
My cousin Emily says you need to learn some Madonna. But she lives in Vegas and will be back there by the time you could possibly learn it. But she’ll visit again… someday…
Tracey Ullman – “They Don’t Know”
Talking Heads – “Road to Nowhere”
Thompson Twins – “Hold Me Now”
Alan Parsons Project – “Don’t Answer Me”
The Buggles – “Video Killed the Radio Star”
Why not some Police? (because people trying to sing like Sting would be annoying)
Billy Joel – “Pressure”
John Cougar Mellancamp – “Jack and Diane”
Stray Cats – “Rock This Town,” “Stray Cat Strut”
Thomas Dolby – “She Blinded Me With Science”
some Cyndi Lauper, yo
Matthew Wilder – “Break My Stride”

or i could shut up and go away
no one named corey should ever shut up and go away. that’s what they tried to do to us. (sure, we did for awhile, but court ordered rehab doesn’t really count, does it?) but we’re back!!!
regarding the requests:
nice. very nice.
though, i would like to launch ms. ullman into the ocean.
we’ve been doing material girl. does that count as madonna?
corey on… our wayward son…
How about this one?
More Than A Feelin’ – Boston
You have a good list!
There are some notables though that you may consider:
Rock n’ Roll all nite – KISS
Rapper’s Delight – Suger Hill Gang
I think we’re alone now – Tiffany
LaBamba! – Los Lobos
I saw you all play a little of Over the Hills and Far Away and then you cut it off. Had I saw that on your list, I would’ve chosen that. Unfortunately, I was to late to sign up and sing
How about:
“Easy” (Lionel Richie)
“Smooth” (Rob Thomas & Santana)
I would love to try these songs!
Easy is on our current “to do” list. Look for it within the month!
Have you guys included Easy on the list yet? I wanted to do it wednesday but DJ said that if is not on the list you guys won’t do it.
Cheers!
Ok. 2 words: “What’s Up” 4NonBlondes. always a hit
pleeeeeaaaaaaase
I would like to try “Unchained” or “Panama” by Van Halen.
Ditto on the “More than a feelin’” request by Bostson!
“Easy” is now one of our tunes. One of our favorite tunes to play, by the way. Come and sing it!
How about “Centerfield” by John Fogerty and “Jack and Diane” by John Cougar Mellencamp?
Oh boys, you don’t even want me to start naming all the songs possible. . . but I will request one for now. . .
weekend homework if you will. . .
TEENA MARIE – “LOVERGIRL”
I’m not from Oakwood but my pipes could be. Let’s get funked as a quad-ro-phon-ic.
I do TIP, but don’t collapse!
Tell Corey I loved him in the movie.. aw what was it… oh you know, the one with the guy doing that thing with uh his thing for that girl. Classic. Corey On.
Yous guys got the chops to “Fly Me to the Moon”? ala Sinatra? Be Brave!
“boys don’t cry” the cure

You guys could use some more girl songs. How about some Go-Go’s, Scandal, or Berlin?
We now have Goodbye to You by Scandal. So give me some money!!! I’ll sell you my teeth.
