Sexy Friday, you know what day it is today edition

So, today is September 11 and we all know what happened on that day. No need to discuss further.

Instead, we are going to focus on hot and sexy soccer girls and figure out if you can spot the hidden theme.

To make it more interesting, I challenge everyone to identify the individual clubs represented. Let’s see how many can do that…

I’ll also be continuing to showcase awesome songs like before. Today, I’m presenting to you awesome obscure songs from an 80s artist you may recognize.

As for last night’s game, I did fairly well on the Fantasy Football front as the new KC RB is on one of my teams as well as Mr. Wank Motion. On another team, Will Fuller V did very well for me as did the losing QB.

Of course, this promising start will get destroyed over the course of the weekend.

Let’s get right to it. Enjoy:


This is the tricky one…

And now, the next episode of our new feature!

As I mentioned before, I’ve decided that I must take up the mantle that tWBS ran with and help to make this world a better place. I will do this in the one way he couldn’t: By introducing you to good music!

My aim each week has been to showcase a tune or band from the 80s (the best decade EVAR!) that not many people know about or have heard of. In this way, hopefully these artists will find new audiences and the old audiences can reminisce about what they were doing in the 80s.

Tonight, we are looking at songs that you may have not heard of from a band you probably heard of. Tonight’s band was most famous for their hit, “Hold Me Now”. I speak, of course, of the Thompson Twins

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9694K85Xc8
Thompson Twins – Hold Me Now

However, that band had A LOT of other great songs besides that one. It all started with “In The Name Of Love” with that great drum beat and danceable rhythms:

Thompson Twins – In The Name Of Love

In fact, the Thompson Twins had more success on the US Dance chart than on the regular chart. Another example of that was the song “Lies”:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wuv4f-AmKE4
Thompson Twins – Lies

Probably my favourite Thompson Twins song is “Love On Your Side”:

Thompson Twins – Love On Your Side

and, of course, this song from my favourite John Hughes movie:

Thompson Twins – If You Were Here

The Thompson Twins got pretty famous with Doctor Doctor, which I’m sure you’ve heard, but that same album also had a great song called “The Gap”

Thompson Twins – The Gap

At the same time, they released the single version of “Lay Your Hands On Me”:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJDzN4RrSt8
Thompson Twins – Lay Your Hands On Me

At this point, their songs were more melodic and less dance-y. A good example is “King For A Day”:

Thompson Twins – King For A Day

Their final big hit was a remix of “In The Name Of Love”:

Thompson Twins – In The Name Of Love 88 remix

So many good songs out of what many consider to be a One-Hit or maybe Two-Hit wonder.

***

That’s all for this week, folks! Be good to each other and try to stay the fuck away from stupid people. That’s not COVID-19 advice, that’s just general good sense. See you next week!

Balls somehow lost his bio and didn't realize it. He's now scrambling to write something clever and failing. He likes butts, boobs, most things that start with the letter B, and writing in the Second Person. Geelong, Toluca, Barcelona, and Steelers, in that order.

Chicks you meet in the afterlife after you crash a jet into some buildings?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Is the theme “asses you can bounce a quarter off of” or “mexican soccer teams”?

WCS

It can be two things.

Is the goat “fixed”?

What are we going to do with a goat that doesn’t have balls the size of pumpkins? Eat it? We’re not bringing Andy Reid with us.

Someone tell that woman from the Kim Crawford commercial that there’s much better wine at my place. She’s welcome any time.

Wife CONSTANTLY makes fun of that ad.

“Ooh…what a badass. Buying a $10 bottle of wine at a CVS.”

But, but, she also buys a pair of cheap sunglasses!

Man, 80s musicians had the craziest hairdos. Human League guy, Flock of Seagulls guy, Cyndi Lauper, I know there are dozens if not hundreds more.

We agree to disagree. It helps my back pain, depression and mood.

One of the teams is obviously Crystal Palace. Another is Queens Park Rangers.

Maybe it’s because I listen to the Big ’80s on 8 every day, but, I know all of those songs. “In the Name of Love” was also on the Ghostbusters soundtrack. I didn’t realize Thompson Twins had a two-hit wonder reputation.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

This makes sense….. somehow.

My first preset is 31 Tom Petty, 2nd is First Wave, then 21 Underground Garage, followed by classic rewind, classic Vinyl, Deep Tracks, 80s on 8, 70s on 7, Willie’s Roadhouse. Don’t usually have to go any deeper than that.

King Hippo

#1 – First Wave
#2 – Alt Nation
#3 – Lithium
#4 – SiriusXMU
#5 – Underground Garage

(I forgets what #6 is)
