VHM Prince & Appollonia ("thank you"), "Take Me With U", Katrina tho' it may be -- being legal in 2 years sure does increase the airplay.

As Mike hinted, "Catch My Fall" is the title.  I've been hearing quite a bit of older Idol lately, and I was just told this weekend that some Eurodisco jokers have reworked "Dancing With Myself."

ETA: WOS to asshole Lou Reed, "I Love(s) You Suzanne."

I doubt she loves his perfect body or his mind.

Brad Garrett was on Star Search?  I assume that's the ELRaymond frankenstein monster?

More like his stash.  So what don't you like about Lou, personally?

Yup. He'd been around for some time before landing in sitcom-ville. He was great, pre-Raymond, on a short-lived show called "Pursuit of happiness", playing a big butch gay guy.
