It's no longer socially acceptable to make "once you go black" jokes is it?

 
Stevie Wonder - Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours)  (#203)

Sure, I have a lot of Happy Greens left in this grouping, but given that everyone after me in the draft order has already picked here, there's a chance that this could get back to me with only a choice among my three (3!) Angry Reds in it.  I'm terribly happy to get my second-favorite artist here.

I missed it.

If we're being honest, I was always more of a Mandy Moore fan.  12 year old me was pretty much glued to TRL during the entire run of "Candy" in 1999.  Life-long crush here, still today.  Did I mention - #### Ryan Adams?

If you only watch a few minutes in the middle at a time, A Walk To Remember isn't that sad. :oldunsure:

I saw that at the theater, strictly because she was in it.  Saved! too.  But that one actually is pretty good.

This Is Us is ending its run after this year which will put it over 100 episodes.  Mandy will be able to keep the baby in diapers on the streaming and syndication royalties.

 
Speaking of which, has the teenage music countdown show died entirely?  There was a period of time between like 1998 and 2003 where if you did not watch TRL, or to a lesser extent 106 & Park, you were completely on the outs of the entire next day's lunch room conversation.  

I went to an Atlanta Hawks game in 2018, and Big Tigger was their resident in-house DJ.  Made me feel old, and made me wonder if the rest of the crowd had any idea how popular he was on 106 & Park.

I don't think there's any American between the ages of like 31-37 who does not still love Carson Daly from his TRL days.

I still listen to the Alt18 on Sirius

 
Once went to a high school graduation party for the wife's cousin.  They're pretty wealthy, and had an actual band playing the party. 

They played a cover of ol #2189, and the entire dance floor cleared.  She and I had our own 2-person dance party to it.

End of the song, singer goes "yeah, I guess that song only appeals to a very narrow age demographic".

I don't think we're the same demographic (you're younger), but that song is a huge guilty pleasure for me.  :)  

 
#7003 is a ####### great song.  The entire lyrics of the song are "the cocaine is not good for you", in Spanish, then English, over and over and over again on repeat.

 
This song is legitimately at least top 3 in this group of songs for me, alongside Smokey Robinson and Tears for Fears. I've drafted it a lot over the years, hell @Pip's Invitation thinks I've drafted a carbon copy of it already in this draft :shrug:

The Hold Steady (wrongly) didn't make this list, but here's a Hold Steady quote:

Me and my friends are like the drums on "Lust for Life?
We pound it out on floor toms
Our psalms are sing-along songs

16.08 - Lust For Life - Iggy Pop (#325)

It's way up there for me, and I almost chose it several times.  Nice pick in the 16th, sheesh.
