we are we are we are hearing a Katrina. Icicle doesn't Work(s) for me.

This song holds a special place in my heart: when I discovered MP3s and P2P file sharing, I showed a cow orker how it worked and he asked if I could locate this song.  I did and neither of us have bought a CD since!   

(Just kidding, we both deleted the file within 24-hours and then went out and purchased a full-price retail CD at a brick-and-mortar record store.)


Might as well ...be listening to The Bone or The Bland or The Fox!

I love VH's "Jump" but only this version:

I never get tired of seeing Eddie frantically trying to tune his guitar while fans cheer for the most awful noise ever. Ohhohoho.

If we have to hear 1984 Van Halen, why not "Hot For Teacher"?

Very nice set overall. Heard lots of songs that were new to me. Most unnecessary: "whisper to a scream", but that's a MoreyMemory for me so that's ok. I look forward to hearing the full thing during tonight's replay.

Have you seen/heard this Jump paraody?
