A great voice. My favorite by him is “Town Without Pity”

Or as a friend of mine in college thought she heard : “ Down and Out City.”

We still sing those words to it to this day.

“Boondock” means “mountain” in Tagalog, so it’s like saying, “down in the mountains.”


The TV series “Strangers with Candy” had a high school named Flatpoint
