42 to 3 and we're still in the first half.
It's more or less remembered as a Cyndi Lauper hit in 1984.
The original single was released in 1978 by the Brains as a 45 rpm single on Gray Matter Records. The B side of the single was a song called "Quick with Your Lip". The initial underground success of the song led to the Brains being signed by Mercury Records.
They rerecorded the song under the guidance of producer Steve Lillywhite for their 1980 debut album, The Brains. Critic Greil Marcus, listing it at number 10 of his Real-Life Rock Top Ten 1979, said, "Singer Tom Gray told his story in a strangled voice, as if he were trying to explain, but instead he laid a curse.
This damned single ranks higher than I've placed it, but if it were anywhere else I couldn't end with it, and there's no other way the decade could end."[1] Marcus would later write of the song, "It was hard, it hurt, and Cyndi Lauper's version makes the original sound compromised.
Lauper's version makes you wonder if Brains composer and singer Tom Gray even knew what he was talking about.
“Just saw that Etienne is transferring to the Dawgs. Is this true? If so…ouch”
true ...
And OK was helped by a bad and wrong pass interference call that led to that last touchdown. The refs won the game for OK. My opinion of course.
52-10 Alabama.
Not so fast. Milroe will be contained. Michigan has a case of the jitters right now, but they will win the war in the trenches. Let’s see if Bama can capitalize on the fumble.
Michigan already looking like typical Bowl-Game Michigan.
Too early to tell. Georgia got up Gaston Bama and lost. Michigan has a lot of talent to compete with Bama. If they settle down, they will be fine.
7-7. Now the real game starts.
You certainly called it right.
Whoever is playing in this Orange Bowl is in name only.
BOTH Georgia and Florida State teams are missing 19 players EACH who chose not to play.
FUGEDDABOUDDIT.
