The Show Must Go On is by Three Dog Night: Baby, although I chose this lonely life It seems it's stranglin' me now All the wild men, big cigars, gigantic car They're all laughin' at the lie Oh, I've been used Ooo-oo-oo-oo I've been a fool Oh, what a fool I broke all the rules Oh, yeah But I must let the show go on Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people They're all after my blood I wish maybe they'd tear down the walls of this theatre Let me out, let me out Oh, I'm so blind Oh, I'm blind I wasted time Wasted, wasted, wasted time Walkin' on the wire, high wire But I must let the show go on Oh, I'm so blind Oh, I'm blind I wasted time Wasted, wasted, all too much time Walkin' on the wire, high wire But I must let the show go on Baby, I wish you'd help me escape Help me get away Leave me outside my address Far away from this masquerade 'Cause I've been blind Oh, so blind I wasted time Wasted, wasted, all too much time Walkin' on the wire, high wire But I must let the show go.. I must let the show go.. I must let the show go on
  4. Rap has a rhythm different than ordinary speech.
  5. Vogue-Madonna Love Is a Battlefield-Pat Benatar That's the Way Love Goes-Janet Jackson
  6. Any such list has to have right at the top Berry Gordy of Motown Records. Motown revolutionized popular music more than any other label, with legendary artists such as Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, the Marvelettes, Mary Wells, Martha & the Vandellas, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross & the Supremes, the Temptations, the Four Tops, the Jackson 5 and the Commodores.
  7. Come Dancing-the Kinks and another one from the Thriller album (25 years young): The Girl Is Mine-Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney

  10. The Beatles. The rooftop sessions. End of discussion.
  11. Slade did hit #20 on the Hot 100 with Run Runaway, which hit #1 on the Billboard Album Rock chart, and also had a top 40 hit with My Oh My. Both of these received heavy airplay on AOR stations and MTV, but less airplay on top 40 stations. But their biggest impact on the US Hot 100 was actually Quiet Riot's cover of Cum On Feel the Noize, which hit #5.
  12. "Hotel California"-The Eagles "Under the Bridge"-Red Hot Chili Peppers
  13. Eric Clapton: Guitar Paul McCartney: Bass Elton John: Piano Phil Collins: Drums Bono: Vocals And the best part is they're all still alive. Just maybe . . .
