Things are getting ugly - The more “interesting” faces of pop.

1. Fiesta - The Pogues
2. Private Conversation - Lyle Lovett
3. Hit me with your rhythm stick - Ian Dury
4. Ex’s and Oh’s - Elle King
5. Seven Years - Lukas Graham
6. Shake It Up - Ric Ocasek (Cars)
7. Rockaway Beach - The Ramones
8. Ride Like the Wind - Christopher Cross

Great voice, but he was a [pudgy, somewhat schlubby guy](https://pmcvariety.files.wordpress.com/2020/01/christopher-cross-grammys-1981.jpg?w=1000&h=563&crop=1), and I’m certain that that fact didn’t help his career with the advent of MTV.
