NO IDEA.......but I'm a sport and I'll take a guess: Oingo Boingo?

Devo?....no.........The Reverend Hortan Heat???

Wall of Voodoo was the band,BFR. They were a one-hit-wonder.

Rawhide!

I figured they were a one hit wonder...the best songs of the 80's were one hit wonders. But that name sounds familiar....although I boycotted 91X for playing that bi-curious, tight pants, emo BS, it used to play that song right into the turn of the century. And right after, the aritst was announced. It rings a bell.

I love their version of Ring of Fire. I stilll have it and the l.p. Call of the West. They were a great band. Ditto on the Emo crap! When I hear it, it makes me wanna cry and cut myself.

Wow, didn't know they had one. I'll have to check that out......I love Social Destortion's version (and about everything else from them). And and of course, the original by The Man in Black, Johnny Cash.

When I was.....a young boy......my father took me to the city......

Every time I heard that BS (about every day) I would quickly change the station.....to the point where I just stopped listening to music on the radio. Now I just listen to talk.

The youngens just don't know good music nowadays......I never thought I would say this, but I truly don't understand today's young generation.

I'd say the same thing Bear but at my age you might be the younger generation.
