Did you hear the broadcast where he and a bunch of other rockers were voting on “wimpiest rock song ever” and one of the guys said “Only Women Bleed”?
I cracked up.
He got *so* indignant.
Ouch!
Recently my fifteen year old son, who has been getting into rock big time over the past couple of years, overheard me saying “awesome song, rock masterpiece, and the video was a hoot” over the phone to someone. He kept bugging me to tell him what song, but I wouldn’t tell him. It was “Poison” by Alice. I figure he’ll be ready to hear those lyrics about five years into his marriage. :-)
One of the reasons that video is a fond memory is that it was the first thing I saw on a big screen after 6 weeks of Air Force basic training.
If anyone thinks the song is schlocky, flame away. As an old blues man once said, “I ain’t no monkey, baby, but I knows whats I like.”
