VHM "Wonder Woman"/"Charlie's Angels"/"Happy days" action figures/toys commercial. Me-TV is showing WW on Sat nites. 

"You Make Lovin' Fun" is slightly less LN than some of the other cuts from Rumours.

Title: Re: 11 Feb 2014: it's... 1977
Post by: urth on February 11, 2014, 10:23:07 AM
So far: two proto-New Wave tunes, followed by three very slick LA rock tunes (OK BJ is from Lawn Guyland, but you get my point).

Here's hoping we take a turn in a different direction next.

ETA: Mission accomplished. Marvin provides a bit of the funk, as well as the blueprint for Blurred Lines.

I suspect there will be screams among the GS community for not doing the two-fer into We Are the Champions.

Oh, 1977... I've already adequately expressed my feelings about this year.  Today's set had a
higher than usual LNQ.  BOS to Only the Good Die Young.  While Freehold's favorite son reflects
and projects a solidly blue-collar outlook, I think it is Billy Joel who most accurately captures the
middle-class zeitgeist of the tri-state region.

Absolutely.  "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant" is half the people I knew.  Engineer boots, leather jackets and tight blue jeans forever!
