  - Monkey -- nm - kilbooooo Oct 19, 12:18 1
    - wet or dry, still not interested -- nm - Max Oct 19, 12:18
Oh! Well then actually no, I used the word I intended, Bery! - Qale Oct 19, 12:13 2

  - *bends over* nm -- nm - Barney Oct 19, 12:09
I'll admit, I know and like The Eagles, but I wouldn't have recognized those as lyrics. (nm) - musubi Oct 19, 12:07 10
- [deleted] 1
  - yep. -- nm - Kim Pine Oct 19, 12:14
- because they're wrong. -- nm - Andie Oct 19, 12:08 6
  - I recognized that they were going for the lyrics, but that they had them wrong. -- nm - Stephen Oct 19, 12:11
  - That too, but even correct, I don't think I'd recognize them as lyrics. (nm) - musubi Oct 19, 12:10 1
    - If they had quotations marks around the words, I'd have thought they came from somewhere and not requiring me to get excited. -- nm - Qale Oct 19, 12:14
  - agreed, wrong enough that I might not recognize them. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:08
  - But still close enough. -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 12:08 1
    - i knew what it was, but i can understand out of context that someone might not get it,. -- nm - Andie Oct 19, 12:09
- this is true. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 19, 12:07

80s reeducation for JaxSean - Max Oct 19, 12:03 39
- I'll also add Howard Jones to this group, born Feb 1955. I was astounded to see how young Sexton is. -- nm - Max Oct 19, 12:10 5
  - That was easy ... he was known as a prodigy. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:11
  - Seriously? That was the easy one. -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 12:10 3
    - I knew he was the youngest, but 1968? That makes him 16 when he got his hit. I thought only Debbie Gibson was that young. -- nm - Max Oct 19, 12:12 2
      - Yup. SRV assisted him. -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 12:14
      - he was the Johnny Lang of the 80s. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:13
- (also, Beat So Lonely isn't on the actual SKOW soundtrack release) -- nm - hachiko Oct 19, 12:08 3

  - you are difficult. nm -- nm - groiny Oct 19, 12:07 3
    - Nah, I'm just not a music guy unless it's everywhere. - Will Hunting Oct 19, 12:08 2
      - true, it's not as if you didn't recognize Bruce Springsteen. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:09 1
        
        Yeah, I'd have to be a real dumbass to not know a Br.....oh. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 19, 12:10
  - I don't know Carrack. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:07

      - They are all easy, just saying he was least. -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 12:12 9
        
        I dunno, his song was just redone recently by some pop princess? - groiny Oct 19, 12:13 8
        
        I liked Nevil, so I am biased. C'est La Vie, Dominoes, What's It To Ya, Back On Holiday. -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 12:16 2
        
        I liked What's it to ya better than any of those others. nm -- nm - groiny Oct 19, 12:17 1
        
        Agreed. - Spawn Oct 19, 12:19

B2: My family (parents and grandparents included) does not own any album by The Beatles, Eagles, or pretty much any group of that genre - MDH Oct 19, 12:03 22

  - I've really never listened to a rock radio station. - MDH Oct 19, 12:08 4
    - those are horrible stations. and it's not relevant. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:09 3
