On the day i was born the top hit was
"Good Lovin'" by The Young Rascals
Please remain stationary to facilitate targeting.
Mr. Sandman by the Chordettes.
One of the weirdest songs ever.
Wedding Bell Blues - I love that song. I love the aggressive arrangement to that preposterously girly number.
"Someone needs to point out that elephants produce infinitely more shit than donkeys." Brad Mays
Mack the Knife?? N/T

The Monkees, "I'm a Believer"
Not feeling it.
Ewww, Trish
The Monkees... that's bad!

Pretty sad
Isn't it?
Look on the bright side
Look at the bullet that Piper dodged below.
Go Global!
Bridge Over Troubled Water
Yes! Had I been born a year later, I would have been saddled with the Osmonds.
I like The Monkees. "They were a huge influence on The Beatles"-Lloyd, Dumb and Dumber
Isaac Hayes
Theme from "Shaft," muthas.
Pleasantly surprised
"Save The Last Dance For Me", The Drifters. Surprised because 1960 was one of the weakest years for popular music of the post-WWII era, and this was one of the year's best.

mccain's is funny
i was about to accuse you of making that one up, in fact.
I couldn't make up something like that
I chuckled when I listened to that song... it sounds so old and kitsch.
Go Global!
"McCain is funny"
Watch that one. It's a set up for this year's equivalent of "There you go again."
(Which Obama is setting himself up for by not being quick on his feet in debate, but there you go.)
[ ] Very tepidly voting for Obama [ ] ?????. [ ] Any mullah-sucking billionaire-teabagging torture-loving pus-encrusted spawn of Cthulhu, bless his (R) heart.
"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win." -- Mahatma Gandhi

Don't laugh.
But, we've always been at war with Eastasia...

French Doc did you know?
The song was written by an eighteen year old.
Nope, I didn't know that... N/T

My Sharona.
Bill Clinton for First Dude!!!
He who will not reason is a bigot; he who cannot is a fool; and he who dares not is a slave.
- Sir William Drummond
Mine was
"I Heard It Through The Grapevine," by Marvin Gaye, which is cool as hell :)
My poor, poor little brother's was "Rain Drops Are Falling On My Head," by whatsisface that one guy.
--------------------
FrenchDoc: The Monkees were good, and "I'm a Believer" was written by Neil Diamond, who's even better.
Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay
the Otis Redding version, not the Michael Bolton version. I guess there are some benefits to being older.
"Do what you feel in your heart to be right -- for you'll be criticized anyway. You'll be damned if you do, and damned if you don't. " - Eleanor Roosevelt
Wiggles...
Agreed on The Monkees. Neil is great too, but he lost me after 'Turn on your Heartlight'.
"Kiss you all over"
by Exile.
Yikes
all that synthesizers made my ears bleed! :-)
Go Global!
Let's just say it was in between Elvis and The Beatles
but some of you are still babies.
Exile? The Knack? That was just, um . . . nevermind.
