DONT FUCKING LIE. We all know you love Footloose because of Chris Penn's sweet dance moves to Let's Hear It For the Boy.. It's the reason we all love it. That, and drunken rage-dancing.
A buddy of mine posted this on facebook: "I must confess that I am not married, but am indeed expecting a baby... This was quite a surprise but I am very happy and excited about this!!!" Alarmed, I texted him, and he told me his dog is pregnant and he is just messing with people. So I posted a link to planned parenthood on the status. But now I regret it. Dammit. We just aren't really at the age where abortion jokes are funny anymore.
Nuff said. And this was fucking awesome last night. Holds up well for 25 years old, Trent Reznor was ahead of his time.
No sir. That's hysterical. Getting people all in a huff is an art form. And you performed well. I hope all the negative comments after were equally as funny.
One weekend in high school I went on a church youth group retreat, and this girl I was madly in love with (auburn curls, gorgeous face, and a she had a voice like Demi Moore) spent a couple of hours trying to work this song out on the piano. I can still hear/see her playing this whenever I hear it.
Not enough people realize how fucking insane that song is. He's essentially playing a bass line and a tricky melody riff at the same time, all while singing some impressive vocals over the top. I've never been a huge Fleetwood Mac fan, but dude is insanely talented. I only know a couple people who could play that guitar part, but easily know that none of them could even speak the lyrics over the top while doing so.
So does it bring back fond memories, or make you cringe as you think of her pounding away on the keys? During college break senior year, I went with a friend to Chincoteague, VA as she had stayed there that past summer. They have a strip that just loops around and that's what they considered a good time--driving on this strip all damn night and then looping around and coming back the other way. Wait, I forgot, if they knew someone going the other way, they'd "brake" their lights, but keep on going. Anyway, the whole time she had this song on repeat: I hate that song. I wasn't crazy about it before, but after listening to it what I'm sure amounted to hundreds of times, I can't stand it. I think I sent it to her a little while ago to remind her how she tortured me. Of course, this is the same girl that thought we needed Pop Tarts for our girls' weekend and one time told someone this detailed story of how this certain coin was minted. The guy walked away and I said I didn't know she knew that. "Oh, I didn't, I just made it all up." And when we were in Chincoteague getting beer this skinny guy in a wifebeater started talking to us and we started just casually leaving and he pulls out this, "Yo yo yo, do I smell, do I o'fend?" with the arm motions that I can clearly picture with that statement and you guys have no idea. But it was funny. So she made up some long drawn out explanation of why we had to leave. I was just trying not to laugh at his o'fend comment. I'll occasionally pull that out when we're together as a reminder. You know, I think that was a pretty awesome weekend looking back. Yesterday was a crappy day, today was a good day, despite lack of sleep. I am having a margarita in celebration. I think I really like them. I also think I'm going to post that video on her facebook. She deserves it. **I just checked the year and it came out in 1982! Why was she listening to it 10 years later?
Not from the correct time period, but this song reminds me of someone on this board, hard to say who...
Somewhere, Nitwit is pissed off that he's not allowed to post on here anymore. This thread is made for him. Apparently in the year I was born, Wham was the number 1 song on the charts. I have never heard of this song and have no idea who sang it.
Yeah, Nitwit posted music that makes people want to shove heated knitting needles into their ears. And then he would post the same song four more times in an hour, demanding that you not only learn to like the song but validate him for having such great music taste. He'd only find some way to fuck it up. The week I was born "You Light Up my Life" by Debbie Boone was #1.
I always thought of that song as the Stairway To Heaven of hip-hop. I think it was the beats of the songs that made 90's hip-hop the best. West Coast had so much cool-vibe and loungy instrumentation. Everything had perfect flow. It was meant for dancing, driving or just listening. Take your pick. These guys from my time are such a touchstone for it:
I heard this song while I was flipping through the radio the other day. I'm not gonna lie, I listened to it. It reminded me of dancing at school dances where I was hunched over because I was trying not to stab the poor girl with my raging 12 year old erection.
Wham is the who. I have no idea the song name as I do not know the year you were born. Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go was number one in 1984. Are you almost 30? It was their first number 1 hit. Um, I only know this because I just researched it. Really. Edit: And now I feel like dancing. Thanks toddamus.
Don't forget Careless Whispers. That's fuck music right there. That was a big hit for Wham, made that Sexy Sax Man a viral celebrity, and has what might be the most unintentionally hilarious choruses of all time. Hold on tight kids, I am about to drop some fucking SCIENCE here: Boom goes the dynamite.
Some say I'll turn 30 in 18 months, but I don't see that as a bad thing. Seeing as how I'm really immature, when I turn 30 I'll still be acting/feeling like I'm in my mid twenties.
