I'm pretty sure that Jimmy Webb said somewhere that he was high on acid when he wrote it. Or maybe I just hope he said that.

Dylan's Forever Young is one of my favorite songs and worth a listen.

*Drum roll please*...

The Zit Remedy: Everybody Wants Something
"Everybody wants something! They'll never give up! Everybody wants something! They'll take your money and NEVER GIVE UP!" (from Degrassi Junior High)

and this one seriously deserves a MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR (Like Major Dad!) Drum roll...

Big Fun: Teenage Suicide
"Teenage suicide! DON'T DO IT! Teenage suicide! SHE BLEW IT!" (from Heathers)

Can you possibly get any worse?

I guess I should read through the ENTIRE thread before replying, eh?


Well, the REALLY odd thing is that Donna Summer felt compelled to COVER it! What was up with THAT?!?!

Aw, I like "Come On Eileen."

And you know what I'm going to say. I bet you haven't heard 20% of her music. And it is not all the same.

I'm sportin' the avatar so I must represent.

I actually have a Donna Summer collection that I hardly ever listen to and that song is on it. Maybe I should go listen to it to see what everyone's talking about.

It's nothing personal against him because I respect country legends, but I think a countrified version of that song is SO wrong. I think it's actually worse than Rod Stewart's cover of "Stand Back."
