I haven't heard that one. I thought it might be the one about Karen's picture fitting on the side of the album cover....;^)
Which ST album? My favorite was feel like s***/deja vu. "Waking the Dead" was my fave on that album. That was my freshmen year in HS.
29 ain't so bad.
Meanwhile, I am 7 months and 4 days away from 30!
AUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!
Before I got to your next paragraph, I knew what joke you were talking about!
That's narly dude!
I knew I was getting old when I saw Tiffany and Vanilla Ice on that "Hit Me Baby One More Time" show last year.
All I wanted was a Pepsi and she wouldn't give it to me ...
Look at it this way. That 'old' music was sung in English!
Good grief. You have got to be kidding. Compare that noise to anything from Chicago, The Moody Blues, The Who, The Doors, etc. There is no comparison. There is no thought to composition or creating a piece of art. It's repetitive and banal musically.
Next year is the 25 year anniversary of Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
No matter how old I get... Phoebe Cates will always be 18 and beautiful!
True. Sort of. If you could get past the noise and actually hear the lyrics.
My buddy saw them back in the day. The singer had a broken leg, but he didn't cancel the show. He did the show reclining on this big couch. The show must go on.
BUMP
My 9 year old daughter always has me hopping to make sure her MP3 player is filled with new songs.
She was flipping through the stations on the radio of my mini-van (Yes, I'm not embarrased. I wouldn't have written that if I was!) and heard "Spoonman" for the first time. She's definitely a rocker and said "Dad, you've got to put that on my MP3 player!"
Guess what I'm doing right now?
Ping list for the discussion of the politics and social (and sometimes nostalgic) aspects that directly effects Generation Reagan / Generation-X (Those born from 1965-1981) including all the spending previous generations (i.e. The Baby Boomers) are doing that Gen-X and Y will end up paying for.
Freep mail me to be added or dropped. See my home page for details and previous articles.
What if you were born after the first inaguration of Reagan, like...I was? *ducks*
I saw the Moody Blues back in '88, they could still pull it off pretty good at that time.
But some of the new stuff by bands like Weezer and Blink 182 stacks right up to generations past.
Hey, Children are to be seen, not heard!!
Crap...when did I get old!!
Ha!
There's some debate about that. The marketers try to squeeze Gen X to only 15 years. But I say you're Gen X if you were born before Reagan's second inauguration!
