Wednesday Coffee Break: Makin' Up Your Mind

(updated below)

So he finally decided: Brett Favre, that is. Number four is now a Viking. Of course, if you hadn't heard that yet, welcome back from your trip to Greenland.

The story of Favre's maybe-I-will-no-I-won't-ok-I-will has been amply recounted elsewhere. This morning, we're really just concerned with one thing: the whole concept of waffling. Not being able to make up your mind ... changing it, being indecisive, finally deciding. That's today's theme for the 9:30 Coffee Break.

Update: Your requests we played ...

1) The Clash, "Should I Stay Or Should I Go"
2) The Lovin' Spoonful, "Did You Ever Have To Make Up Your Mind"
3) Bucks Fizz, "Making Up Your Mind"
4) Raspberries, "If You Change Your Mind"
5) Devo, "Freedom Of Choice"

Who are Bucks Fizz, by the way? Oh, my my. Ready for some cheese? Some severely caucasian cheese?

Bucks Fizz were a kind of Britsh ABBA, back circa 1980. This was their major hit, and it was a finalist in the Eurovision Song Contest.

An obvious one: "Did You Ever Have to Make up Your Mind?" by the Lovin' Spoonful

Any reason to play The Clash ... Should I stay or should I go?

Should I Stay Or Should I Go by The Clash and/or

Which Side Are You On (rather appropriate for a Vikes/Packers rivalry) by Dropkick Murphy's

Oh, there's always the heartbreaker "Say Goodnight and Go" by Imogen Heap ;-)

"Can't Let Go" - Lucinda Williams

maybe "Freedom Of Choice" by DEVO?

Indecision Time by Husker Du - on Zen Arcarde

Purple haze - Hendrix. Probably too late now.

Otherwise the most appropos one I thought of was
Waving my dick in the wind - Ween.

Why hasn't anyone mentioned "Can't You Figure It Out?" by Sloan?
