A surprising number of people (myself included) remembered it as the first pop song they loved. It struck me as almost spooky, like there was some kind of deterministic effect on music preferences, even though BNL's songs and the GAH theme don't bear any significant similarity. Damn, now that song really is stuck in my head. And I only know the chorus! Ack! \---rin \--- /\ \--/--\ / \.

Just saw him and his band > a little while ago on their "fat, f***ked up, and forty tour" You'd think that being able to differentiate Debbie Gibson and Tiffany and Spuds McKenzie would make me feel old, but that's not the part that does it. What makes me feel old about this is that, last time I saw Mojo Nixon on tour, it wasn't enough for him to shout "Free James Brown!" No, instead, he got the whole crowd to chant "Trade Ollie North for James Brown!" which actually seemed like a really good idea at the time. I feel old because, at first, I wanted to just share this anecdote. Then I realized that I'd probably have to explain it.
