Earth, Wind, & Fire: There are probably less bands that wouldn't win out over Abba here than fingers on a blind butcher.
Culture Club: Do You Really Want to Hurt Me; him ah play de bad Reggae fi a white batty-boy - mi tink he black up.
Men At Work: I Come from a Land Down-Under; it's the Australian national anthem, right?
Tone Loc: I have no idea who this guy is. The only Loc i know is Loc Dog out of Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood, but at any rate - he has to be better than LL Cool J.
Naked Eyes or O.M.D.: Who or who?
Paula Abdul: I'm iffy about the whole Jackson family.
Milli Vanilli: Who are Zapp & Roger? They sound like puppets out of a British '70s children's series.
Cover Girls or Seduction: *Stares blankly*
U2: Brothers always play better music, to be sure.
