Comment:

Not only are our ’80s one-hit wonders all over the map sonically; they’re all over it geographically as well. The toque-wearing, beer-swilling, donut-scarfing comedy duo from the Great White North, Bob & Doug McKenzie, enlist a fellow Canuck, Rush vocalist Geddy Lee, in “Take Off,” a [i]coo-loo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-cool[/i] welcome to their show, eh? Singer-songwriter Karla Bonoff, best known for composing hits like “Someone To Lay Down Beside Me” for Linda Ronstadt, takes herself one step into the solo spotlight with a song she [i]didn’t[/i] write, the slinky-sweet smooth groove “Personally.” And Stacey Lynn Swain, known professionally as Stacey Q, launches into a synth-slathered hi-NRG dance frenzy on the way to becoming a [i]Hollywood Squares[/i] panelist with her pop-tart disco hit, “Two of Hearts.”
