it's either a '70s day or a '90s thang, it would seem.

'70s win out -- mah-mo-yeah!

2 'trinas in a row has become the AL method, I guess, but I'm a little burned out on Dixie, dear.

I still can't complain about the Raspberries, even though it brings back painful Mondegreen memories of thinking he was saying "Baby, please go away!"

"Lion Sleeps Tonight" is a huge zeitgeist song for me.  Big BOS.

And I'll give another to Don McLean, I actually haven't heard this in a really long time.

Do y'all know what the reference to The Levee being dry is about?

I was pissed to lose the stream until I found out I'm missing "Lion Sleeps Tonite" (!) and "American Pie" -- talk about songs I never need to hear again. WOS Robert John

I'll second that emotion.   Saw them at Concord Pavilion about 20 years ago (plus a concert ad from 1974)
