Jams Of The Year round # 12 (1982-1986)

Round 11 saw the death of some great songs. Here's what got voted off:

1982 - DMSR omfg
1984 - Baby, I'm A Star
1985 - 4 The Tears In Your Eyes omfg
1986 - Alexa De Paris

I'm amazed by the relentless desire to get rid of many of my favorite songs...

The winners (so far) are:

1978 - Just As Long As We're Together
1979 - I Wanna Be Your Lover
1980 - Uptown
1981 - Controversy

If "Anotherloverholeinyohead" doesn't win for the Jam of 1986, then I know the Apocalypse is coming. Or that y'all have no taste whatsoever, I don't know. One or the other.

if you don't understand this edit face-to-face, baby, I'll tell you down on my knees

17 Days was the only easy choice out of those - I never 'got' that track. The others were really hard ones to pick - I just refuse to abstain/not vote, and these are probably the least enjoyable for me of what's left (although this varies moment-by-moment - sometimes I LOVE LCD)

17 days is actually one of my favorite cuts. But you are right. It's tough to pick between some of those songs. This is a cool thread but I can't wait to see Jams of the year 92-96. How can I ever pick between "Jughead" and "Now" bored

82 is the only year that really is tough to pick. DMSR is the best cut from that year IMO but looks like it's already gone.
