Chart Floppers and Sonic Departures

In this episode Laura and music teacher Kara Hunter examine the songs that two DJs would have put on the air in 1992 if their adult contemporary format would have allowed it. Only one of the songs in this episode cracked the top 40. Can you guess which one it is? Along the way we discuss sonic departures including the Kinks' social commentary in "Shangri-La," and a very non-extreme track by the band Extreme. During a discussion of Nirvana's "Lithium" we muse on the fate of the album cover's naked baby and we even discuss a Depeche Mode solo project that had reviewers critiquing the audience more than the music.
