Talking Family Man, the song

So instead of "I am what I am" replace it with "I yam what I yam." And then, instead of "a family man!" replace it with "a sailor man!" Suddenly it becomes the Popeye song and its even more ridiculous sounding! I think the only thing I ever liked about that song was Lindsey's guitar riffs.

Default I dont mean any offence...

...but, Ive just never understood what people dont see in Family Man. I myself love the song, I love the way it sung, the riffs, everything, I just dont see anything wrong with it, I love it, not to say that everyone has there own opinion.

Talking Famuly mahan!

Oh i like it too. I don't skip over it when it comes on, but I have to say it just sounds uber-cheesy.

I think that would be what I don't like about it. It's "ubber-cheesy" and has a very 1987 sound to it - like most of the stuff I've heard off of Tango in the Night. I don't the lyrics just don't do anything for me, unlike many other Lindsey songs.

Default I like it

MAybe the words are not so deep, no trascendental message. Yeah, maybe it's a silly song, but it sounds cool. I like it. Not a masterpiece, but easy to listen

I'll just bite my tongue. Where's that emoticon used for tongue-biting. Can't find it. Oh...
