Bossy’s Ear Worm.

Welcome to Bossy’s Ear Worm, which features songs currently in Bossy’s headphones. Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.

The (English) Beat, Mirror In The Bathroom.

It’s as simple as this: Bossy loves to throw this song on, recorded in 1980, and do the whitey bounce. Any questions?

Bossy loves how this song sounds as though it’s drifting out of some distant dancehall.

And, hello saxophone, where have you been all of Bossy’s life?

   I saw the English Beat at Bumbershoot here in Seattle two years ago and still remembered all the words. Danced the whole time. Good tunes.

   I must have listened to this album until it couldn’t play anymore. My friend just saw them at a small venue in San Diego the other night and said they were exactly the same as she remembers them in college.

   I have been listening to Special Beat Service pretty much nonstop since 1989. It’s in my car right now. Good stuff.
