    Dude, all I can say right now is that Video Killed the Radio Star was a total surprise to me.

    I'll rate each song when I get some time away from all these dang essays.

    BQ3: Bowie, followed by The Residents, Genesis, Deep Purple, Marillion, Brian Eno, and King Crimson.

    BQ4: Kraftwerk D:

    BQ5: First one that comes to mind is...
