Yeah, I'm sorry Psych, but I'm with PurpleCharm. That's a fookin' classic!!!!

Darla said:

But I liked King. I still like to croon to that too.

Y'all better leave them damn New Wave songs alone. Those are classics!

Here's my list:

Anything by those corporate Rock garbage bands like Styx, REO, Starship, etc.

Oh yeah, and "Celebrate" by Kool & The Gang. You have no idea how sick I am of that song.

You must be thinking of "A Good Heart" by Feargal Sharkey - you're right, that is a dreadful song...

BUT - Feargal Sharkey (before the Eurythmics Dave Stewart got a hold of him) was the lead singer of the band who produced the greatest pop-punk album of all time: the Undertones self-titled debut album. Words cannot do this album justice. Teenage Kicks is John Peels favourite song of all time, and with good reason - I think it's the most perfect two minutes and twenty five seconds of music ever made.

Feargal went on to have a terrible and mercifully brief solo career - the rest of the band went on to form That Petrol Emotion, who released two great Captain Beefheart-style modern rock records in the mid-eighties, but kind of tailed off after that...

Sorry for going off on a tangent...

Jam Tonight - Freddie Jackson

Whip Appeal - Babyface
You'll Fall And Hurt Yourself - Anita Baker

Soon As I Get Home From Work - Babyface
Night And Day - Al B. Sure
You Can Have A Piece Of My Love - Guy
I Wanna Dance With Somebody - Whitney Houston
The Greatest Love Of All - Whitney Houston
Bedtime Stories? - Anita Baker

To each their own, but I quite like both of those songs, thank you very much...

Madness were a phenomenal band - their debut album is as enjoyable an album as you could ever hope to hear - and the first two Dexy's albums are chock-full of quality songs.

theAudience said:

You are some kind of a walking encyclopedia.

flipwilson said:

I agree. Both bands are great, and I don't see how anyone could not like the heavy, heavy, heavy monster sound. The nastiest sound around!

theAudience said:

That's very comprehensive, and I wouldn't dare disagree with a single choice, except for Come On Eileen - but that's just the anglophile in me coming out, I guess.

NWF said:

To each their own. I think I got sick of that song because they played it so damn much.

heartbeatocean said:

Thanks but not even close.
Most of the time I know where to look for what i'm trying to find.

Unfortunately, I like looking for things.

NWF said:

You mean "Celebration". I'm damn sick of that song too, another tune that got played to death.

vainandy said:

Not to be disagreeable, but some of the songs that you have listed came out in the early 90's.

theAudience said:

I co-sign all that junk...except the part with my name in it, and Sir Paul's live version of "Coming Up" is fab-u-lous.

Kilroy.

Kilroy.

Kilroy.

Kilroy.

PurpleCharm said:

Yes, it did.

flipwilson said:

You know, I might not dislike the song if I hadn't heard it so much.
Quite the same with a few others on my list. The way of the pop music world.

NWF said:

Just not my thing, I guess. It didn't help that those songs were way overplayed on MTV at the time.

Supernova said:

With all due respect, was Linda singing on it?

Actually, you are right. Soon As I Get Home came out in '89 on the Tender Lover album.
