Happy Birthday Belinda, you always seemed like class, unlike the whory, Madonna, whose birthday was yesterday, and is shared by a political day that will live in infamy.

The day, 8/16/22, Liz Cheney got spanked by the voters.

Mods pull if you wish.

“Walk like an Egyptian” is from the The Bangles.

Belinda was not part of the The Bangles.

A duet between Susanna Hoffs and Belinda Carlisle would be worth listening to.

Best Fun Fact in Rock and Roll:

Carlisle playing drums for LA punk rock group, The Germs, fronted by cult legend, Darby Crash.

According to Carlisle, the band was made up of coke heads or heroin addicts, and the two didn't really mix. That's why she lasted in the group a short time. (And why Darby's life only lasted a short time.)
