this song is full of mondies. "now our hearts stampede as one" or "now our hearts, they beat as one," which is so grammatically annoying.

so since it's just Cartman, CZJ and Men-on-Film Guy (Blaine?) -- what's the deal with Daryl Hall?  A friend of mine once saw him in a Columbus Ave (NYC) boutique -- she said he didn't walk in so much as he "pranced".

This is *wildly* popular in the Boston area, I have no idea why.  Wasn't even that big a hit the first time 'round.

DH acknowledged several years ago having had homosexual experiences as a teenager, but the implication was that it was just a phase.

OK I'm running out to get lunch -- I don't wanna miss H&O doing "Rock Steady".  Some songs shouldn't be messed with, so I'm not optimistic. But I bet their take on "I Can Dream About You" is divine.

I always thought they should cover Style Council's "Long Hot Summer"

I googled looking for info on the H&O album, and one website said that "I Can Dream About You" was originally written with them in mind.  They also do "Watch See is Watcha Get" -- tho' it can't be as good as RuPaul's version  :D

well it obviously didn't bother me that much - i listened to the entire song. the music was ok. something about her voice, though...i recently heard a version of a duet with her an al jarreau (hands!) doing a version of kenny loggins' (with michael jackson backing) "who's right, who's wrong?"  not too shabby.

this song is part of my "welcome to texas" memory set. my mom bought a mercury cougar when arrived in austin. the dealer threw in one of those "thanks for buying a ford!" compilation cassettes to showcase the superfine stereo system ( we were upgrading from an 8-track). the compilation included this lou tune along with b.j. thomas, eddie rabbit, lots of other gems...
