Way back when, there was a legendary local radio station, WLIR, which was the first station in the US to play pretty much every major U.K. act of the Eighties; it was tiny but was a wildly influential tastemaker in its day (Showtime will in fact start airing a documentary about the station in March). As part of that, they used to have a weekly competition for best new song called “Screamer of the Week,” where listeners would call in and vote; it was inconsequential but fun. The shop I went to yesterday, Sunday Records, prides itself on carrying as many Screamers as possible and has them set up in chronological order—so these two Tears For Fears 45s were in that section: “Laid So Low” was Screamer #581 in February, 1992, and “Break It Down Again” was Screamer #643 from June, 1993.
