"Cross My Broken Heart" followed by "I Want Your Sex".  I need to find a cheap 2nd copy of the CMBH 12".

The thing is that I like the majority of these songs!

Neutron Dance,  Stir it Up, and Cross My Broken Heart take the cake for me

I voted for the Jets as they're a good group. That single doesn't stand the test of time now though... gets a bit repetitive, but for old times sake it gets my vote.

I watched the movie the other night and I hadn't seen it in a while and couldn't believe how funny Eddie was in it.

It's got to be "Axel F," of course.  Never had any proof, but I always suspected Faltermayer was ripping of Herbie Hancock's "Rockit."  If he was, so what, it's still a catchy number!

They do sound-a-like yes.  Herbie should have pulled a Ray Parker Jr. and tried to sue over it ;D

Well, it was Huey Louis suing Ray Parker, Jr. ("I Want a New Drug" vs. "Ghostbusters).  The "Ghostbusters" movie producers decided to give Huey Louis the finger for denying them the rights to use "I Want a New Drug."  I don't think the BHC producers ever asked Herbie for "Rockit."  If Herbie did hear a similarity, I doubt he would have cared.  Harold Faltermayer was some cheesy German disco producer.  Herbie Hancock was the star pianist in the Miles Davis quintet.  Herbie earned his credentials out there with Miles, Ron Carter, Tony Williams, Sam Rivers, and Wayne Shorter--
It just doesn't get any cooler than that!
