Heard an Edie Brickell album once. Flicking Rubber Bands At The Stars (or summat like that) I remember thinking it was brilliant. Not heard it since.

“Come on Eileen” Dexys Midnight Runners (1982)
The tribute to Geno Washington..."Geno" (1980) was a miles better song.
Incidentally 'Dexy's Midnight Runners' comes from the drug Dexedrine (dexies/dexy's) and was taken by Northern Soulies at all nighters to help keep them on the floor all night long, until morning. Hence the 'Midnight Runners' bit.
