Here's my rule:
If you were born after October 3, 1969 (Gwen Stefani's birthday), you are allowed to like the song. Otherwise, you're best suited listening to Rob Thomas.
If you graduated the 8th grade you AREN'T allowed to liek the song. I would hope by the time people hit high school they have developed some taste

This is ridiculous... it's one thing to create a crappy band from wanna-bes but to take a pre-existing band and mess with it's harmony and rhythem (even if they need a new member) is a serious mistake. This can only spell disaster.

There were so many great pop songs recorded in the 60's. Some of my favourites are:
Do You Believe In Magic - The Lovin' Spoonful
Get Together - The Youngbloods
Downtown - Petula Clark
California Dreamin' - The Mamas & The Papas
Solitary Man - Neil Diamond
Help Yourself - Tom Jones
Dandy -Herman's Hermits
Cherish -The Association
Let's Hang On -Four Seasons
Sloop John B -Beach Boys
Bend Me Shape Me -American Breed
Piggies -Beatles
Sugar Sugar -Archies

It would be neat to see all the different acts come together again. I just don't htink normal people will be able to afford the tickets to go though. A US version would be interesting, but where would they host it?

That was a great article. THanks for posting it. Mary Poppins is one of my favorite movies of all time. I'm also kinda excited about Chitty Chitty Bang Bang coming to Broadway.
Random Factoid: Once Chitty hits the Broadway stage, the Sherman Brothers will have two of their musicals running on stage. Mary Poppins is currently on stage in London, preparing for a Broadway debut soon.

Ironically I could see Rod doing R&B songs like that. I think his voice would be well suited for it.

Fraggle Rock
Gummi Bears
DuckTales
Muppet Babies

I like his early stuff as well. Also, I'm a fan of his "Unplugged. . . and Seated" album. Lots of his songs were begging to be stripped down and IMO it's a good album.
I was going to say the same thing. I think it is one of the best live albums by almost anyone. I fell in love with Tom Traubert's Blues as soon as I had heard the Unplugged version. I haven 't herad much of the early stuff but I'm intriguied by songs like Forever Young, Little Miss Understood, and Some Guys Have All the Luck.
I want to see him perform live, but I doubt I'd be able to afford the tix next time he comes around. But we'll see.

I guess it was a perfect combination of Jack Black (Fabulous role!), Cusak, John... And Todd Louiso was perfect for playing the part of Dick. I own this movie and have watched it so many times, and I still see things I had missed before.
Don't forget Tim Robins! It was sooo wierd to see him play a scumball like Ian.
-
Is he going to be adding east coast dates to this tour? Cause I would really love to go see them live.
-
OR if you wanted to pull in the Disney version of the creature, although it really doesn't fit the song.
-
Not one of John Cuasack's best films. Although I do love it for all the music references that it brings in. There are some very true to form artists that rock out on the soundtrack, as well as some great minute music triva that gets mentioned.
I was stoked when I went back and watched it and they were talking about the band Belle and Sebastian. I flipped out. There are so many miniscule details that you can always pick up something new everytime you watch it.
On the whole: Good movie. Own it. Watch it every now and again.

Found these lyrics in a friend's profile, but they couldn't remember what song it was from. Can anyone clue us in???
"and just when i thought i'd found
the perfect words to say to you,
to make you realize what you are,
what you mean to me
i open my mouth,
and all that comes out,
is your name,
and tears from my eyes"

Two words: Monty Python.
Oh hell yeah. These mean are geniuses in the best way possible. Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one of my favorite movies of all time.
Annie (Susan Sarandon) in "Bull Durham":I've tried them all, I really have. And, the only church that feeds the soul, day in, day out, is the church of baseball.
This quote is one of my all time favorites. It sums up my life in the best way possible. Although I prefer the monologue that Crash says in this movie as a whole piece better:
"Well, I believe in the soul. The c**k. The p**sy. The small of a woman's back. The hanging curveball. High fiber. Good scotch. That the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated c**p. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a Constitution Amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas eve. And I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days...Goodnight."

When is this going on? I know the stadium well. It would be awesome to snag some tickets.

www.whysanity.net/monos is a great site for movie monologues. There are some TV and some play ones in there as well. My all time favorite is really a TV one from an X-Files episode entitle "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man"
"Life is like a box of chocolates... A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in awhile there's a... a peanut butter cup... or a... English toffee. But they're gone too fast...the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... Is an empty box, filled with useless, brown paper wrappers."

I know this is kinda a repost from before but I wanted to get the word out one more time for my radio show tonight. It's my last show of the semester and is the summer concert preview.
More importantly I'm giving away two tickets (maybe four if you beg enough) to go see Average White Band at Toad's Place in New Haven CT on May 27.
Listen in from 8-10 EST tonight at www.wqaq.com to win. AIM: WQAQDJ Phone #: 203-281-0011

I think rock 'n' roll takes the main stage cause it tends to be more popular to the masses. I wouldn't say I'm an avid country fanatic, but there are quite a few out songs or artists out there on the country circuit that I enjoy.
-
The guys from Def Leppard are some of the nicest guys around. Especially Rick Allen, he is an amazingly nice man with a huge heart. I had backstage passes during their last tour two years ago when the album X came out.
-
Not my favorite band at all but some respect has to be shown to the BeeGees
-
Musicology, Prince- Reflection
Cracked Rear View, Hootie- Goodbye
River of Dreams, Billy Joel- Famous Last Words

Loreena McKeenitt has a song called the Highwayman on her CD Mystic dream(?). It was a poem by Longfellow, but it is beautiful and romantic and has to do with the Revolutionary War. (Is that "dang long ago" enough.) It relates the horrors of the British insistance of the Quartering Act on the new settlers in "the colonies" (soon to be the United States). If your teacher wants the song to have been written at the time about a situation, then how about Ohio by Neil Young.
I like the idea of The Highwayman.
Also if you had a specific facination with Billy JOel you could do "We DIdn't Start the Fire." it covers over three decades of significant historical and social issues.
Where's That Line From...TELEVISION!!!

Ahhh the joys that is Family Guy and Stewie.
