My 80ees Pop/Rock pick of the day - Don Henley "Dirty Laundry" oh well... this one sounds sooooo much 80ish....  and there's a special kinda "groove" about it that you just can't... well, I love it 
Don Henley "Dirty Laundry" I make my living off the evening news Just give me something-something I can use People love it when you lose, They love dirty laundry Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here I just have to look good, I don’t have to be clear Come and whisper in my ear Give us dirty laundry Kick ’em when they’re up Kick ’em when they’re down Kick ’em when they’re up Kick ’em when they’re down Kick ’em when they’re up Kick ’em when they’re down Kick ’em when they’re up Kick ’em all around We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who Comes on at five She can tell you ’bout the plane crash with a gleam In her eye It’s interesting when people die- Give us dirty laundry Can we film the operation? Is the head dead yet? You know, the boys in the newsroom got a Running bet Get the widow on the set! We need dirty laundry You don’t really need to find out what’s going on You don’t really want to know just how far it’s gone Just leave well enough alone Eat your dirty laundry Kick ’em when they’re up Kick ’em when they’re down Kick ’em when they’re up Kick ’em when they’re down Kick ’em when they’re up Kick ’em when they’re down Kick ’em when they’re stiff Kick ’em all around Dirty little secrets Dirty little lies We got our dirty little fingers in everybody’s pie We love to cut you down to size We love dirty laundry We can do the innuendo We can dance and sing When it’s said and done we haven’t told you a thing We all know that crap is king Give us dirty laundry! Vanglorious... this is protected by the red, the black, and the green. With a key... sissy! | |

I also loved the song because it not only had a funky sound but had a message as well.  "Eat your dirty laundry." | |

Anyone else with me? "She made me glad to be a man" | |

I love this song too. I especially like the typewriter clacking and telephone ringing in the background.  RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |
