Which is funny, because I knew the latter two songs before I ever knew "What
I Like About You." I think I even knew them for their cover of the Kinks'
"She's Got Everything" before I knew "What I Like About You." (A local
band, the Plaad, covered it; it was years before I knew it as anything other
than a Romantics song.)
