don't know who "Todd" is but this song is burned in to my mind forever for two reasons
We were on a party line when I was a yute.The first phone company I worked at had 2 and 4-party lines.
We had a party line but separate numbers; everyone's phone rang separately for incoming calls. But only one house could have an active call at a time, and if you picked up you could hear the neighbors' conversation.
Uh-huh.New dog toy showed up in the house. I do a double-take every time I see it laying on the floor.
My wife and I bought that one too.New dog toy showed up in the house. I do a double-take every time I see it laying on the floor.
Pretty sure this is how it worked at my house, too.
if you're talking "valley girl", during its my local mainstream "alt" radio station used to play it constantly. I called in a request for them NOT to play it over the next hour. they laughed, but still played it. ####ers.don't know who "Todd" is but this song is burned in to my mind forever for two reasons
1) when i was in elementary school, delivering newspapers in the morning, the radio guys played a snippet of this every. single. day. so i heard the same 15-20 seconds well over 1 thousand times.
2) the Packers STILL play a snippet of it at games, or you'll hear it pre-game on the radio, or in the lot, or at a bar, etc.
Have ever told the story here about my roommate and I calling up one of our local “hits” radio stations due to their crappy rotation?El Floppo said:
full array available for Todd Rundgren. It goes from late 60s pop psychelica, to piano ballads to hard rock, to early prog, to whatever man. This is where it starts, but if you don't like that ...there's more - almost 50 years worth.El Floppo said:
So circus 1987 my roommate, Jim, and I were doing something in our apartment like painting or putting together a bookshelf or rewiring one of his guitar amps.
Completely understandable take. I got into a handful of his "goofy" albums (Apostrophe', Sheik, Joe's Garage) as much for the clever lyrics as for the music. Some of the instrumental stuff really shows his guitar chops, but doesn't hold my interest as well.
I went to the dachshund races a few weeks ago—it was rigged. I’m always up for the track. Except this weekend. In Chicago for Lollapalooza for 4 days.
In the early days of XM Radio, my GB had one of those mobile "boom box" type units. Circus 2008 we were ice fishing in Eagle River. We had one of the classic rock stations going and had heard Phil Collins (solo, Genesis) like 5 times within an hour. Aside, I don't really fish. I just go to drink and smoke and go to the tata bar (RIP Weasel's, and now RIP Carrie Wylde's Frontier). At any rate, I called up XM Radio and said "That's enough Phil Collins"
Speaking of circa, was Up North with some friends and we were all bar hopping and browsing the little shops. One had a bunch of old photographs and were captioned DISHEVELED CHILD circa 1897, MACKINAC CITY circa 1957, JEBS FISH MARKET 1976, etc when all of a sudden my buddy blurts out Jesus Christ this Circa guy that took all these pictures must be a hundred years old
??? Not sure I follow that statement
speaking of huey lewis, I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.
I refuse to believe that the Weiner Dog Nationals is not on the straight and narrow.
