CFNY 102.1, back in Dec.'89 voted "How Soon Is Now" number one song for the eighties. I listen patiently, couldn't forget the song that saved my life,(let alone 'made me cry')

This doesn't make up for the fact that CFNY sucks. I mean talk is cheap, isn't it boys? You'd think they'd back up their "we love these bands" talk, but they're too busy playing the latest Blink 182/Limp Bizkit/whatever the big hit song is.
