One of the greatest mysteries of all time is how anyone could've listened to Styx.

I like the Beatles as well but "Hey Jude" has got to go. I mean 2 minutes of song and 7 minutes of really nothing.

Xena - I like "Ed. Fitz.", but I know CD dislikes Gordo's song, too.

Oh man "Mr. Roboto", Styx's downfall, that whole, IIRC, "Kilroy was Here" album actually back in 83.

I don't know Styx's lead guitriast's(Tommy something) name, but I saw something on VH-1 about Styx, and the guy spit venom towards DeYoung's way in the nicest midwest manner possible.

"Me and You and a Dog Named Boo"
"Rockin' Robin"
"Wildfire"

and one that I have mercifully forgotten the name of, but contains the line "...we made love in my Chevy Van, and that's all right with me..."

and the one about the miners who ate each other.

The only nice thing I can say about Sting and his Horsey Wife is that Sting ages well.

I will no longer sit (laze) silenty as Eddy Murphy is besmirched - Party All The Time is a great dance classic, and I think those who are vehemently opposed to it are just anti-Ed-ites.

While I know I might be inviting flames, and the writer's intentions were certainly honorable and welcome, Paul McCartney's "Freedom" has to be the suckiest song that ever sucked. It's horrible.

A CURSE BE UPON YOU!!!! LOL...

Al Gore Roboto
Written by Matt L.
To the tune of Mister Roboto, written by Dennis DeYoung

Domo arigato, Al Gore Roboto
Made of metal and clay
Domo arigato, Al Gore Roboto
Wear a red power tie

You're wondering what I am, machine or mannequin
I am Bill Clinton's pet, I made the internet

I've got a secret I've been hiding among my kin
My heart is slow, I have no movement, like I'm made of tin
So if you see me moving at all, be very surprised
I just want to run this country, so sometimes I lie
We all sometimes lie - but votes we can't buy
Bush is a twit, a real halfwit

Sure, I'm a robot, without emotions, forget what you see
My opponent's a fool, please don't elect him, his IQ is three....
I'm a war hero, I'm the next savior, forget what you know
I'm just a man who's blatant lying went beyond all control
Beyond my control, Bush is a troll
Lies are all told, Bush is an a-hole

I am a boring man, whose smiles are all canned
So everyone can see my personality

Domo arigato, Al Gore Roboto...domo,domo
Domo arigato, Al Gore Roboto...domo,domo
Domo arigato, Al Gore Roboto...domo,domo
I lie very much, I'm Al Gore roboto
I lost to a fool that snorts much cocaine-o

The problem's plain to see: no personality
I'm stiffer than a board, charisma has been shored

The time has come at last
Florida was the last
Now everyone can see
The new reality
Bush's a crackhead! cokehead! Drunkard!

You know, that song is the worst.

It's bad enought he guy sounds like a girl and it comes off as if he is making it up as he goes along, but to indulge himself with ten minutes is just amazing.

na-na-na...nanana


does go on a bit doesn't it?

I did like Lady Madonna which hit about the same time.

Lord, my early life until around 14 was chronologized by Beatles singles...lol....then by successive girlfriends and wife(s)

Now, I think my point of reference is children's births and major milestones.

Ugh....what is the reference point when you are really old?
