Title: 1 Feb 2013: it's... Super Bowl XLVII
Post by: RGMike on February 01, 2013, 08:00:01 AM
If we get a SB set I hope it's really *about* the Super Bowl and football and winning... and not just some lame retread of the generic San Francisco Set.

Or worse, be full of "We Will Rock You", "All Star", and the like.

I'm guessing it would be a hybrid. Or a 2000 set.

I'd suggest "Winners & Losers" by Hamilton Joe Frank & Reynolds. Yeah, that could happen  ::)

"Winning" by Santana is very likely, however.

Vintage Sammy, "Red." Local product, 49ers angle, and it's a 10@10 rarity if not bustout. What's not to like?

Red and "Gold on the Ceiling".  Necessary theme-wise but boy do I never need hear this song again.

OK, it has the word "Gold" in the title, but do we *really* need to hear a song that's in heavy rotation on KFOG already?

Sorry, Renee, negative points for this one. One step forward, two steps back.

"Gold" by Spandau Ballet would've given her a free pass to suck for the next month.

Fight For Your Right to Super Bowl party?  Weak connection, sorry.

Yeah, as much as I like "Gold On The Ceiling", it didn't need to be played. And "You Gotta Fight..." is just lame. Oh well.

I'll agree that "Nothing's" one of the worst hits of all time, giving it an "F-" for 'good'.

Which other Starship hits are worse than "We Built This City"?

I would agree that "Sara" is pretty bad, but nowhere near as much as "We Built This City".

virtually all of their '80s singles/AOR hits from janeyjaneyjane to "It's Not Enough". I've never understood why "WBTC" gets all the hate.

I'd venture to guess that Niners fans are the lucky ones (the Erickson/Nolan/Singletary years notwithstanding).

Personally, "We Built This City" is probably the best example of what can happen to a veteran band when everything goes wrong. Their other hits, while not particularly great, are saved from being the worst by virtue of their anoymnity.

aside from the fact that WBTC has a personal connection (I first heard it while on vacay in SF, 6 years before I moved here), I think that it's a song that's actually attempting to be *about* something, whereas every other '80s hit of theirs is generic AOR crapola, with often horrendous, nonsensical lyrics ("like a cat and a mouse/from door to door and house to house"?)  I honestly didn't know anyone who didn't like WBTC in 1985. The "OMG -- worst song ever" meme emerged much later.
