The one from the 80s is Denise Williams "Let's Hear it for the Boy" on the Footloose soundtrack. You know you've got to understaa-aaa-aa-aand.
I can't tell if you're joking or not...  |
I never joke, Sar. I pay so little attention these days to rock music that titles can trigger only hazy memories in my mind. Pop represents my unrecoverable past.
My favorite Simon & Garfunkel song is called "America." You familiar with that one? The video isn't very interesting, but the song is redolent of a certain subculture of the 1960s & of a certain time in our lives, when college begins to seem constraining & bourgeois & our minds are suffused with a burning
wanderjahr. A feeling very much like this may have been what compelled Buckingham & Nicks to set out for Los Angeles all those years ago to seek their career fortunes.
