Zactly.  They'd clearly been listening to some Village Green-era Kinks at this time.

I missed the definition of a "gomer". something to do with "surprise! surprise! surprise!"?

Maybe if we gave surprises a cool nickname...

we'd get more. I think we should call any song or clip that is new
and out of the blue

a "Gomer."

"Surprise, surprise, surprise!"

I feel the Proclaimers and Toad the Wet Sprocket approaching.  Dare I hope for:


Sade, "No Ordinary Love"
Tina, "I Don't Wanna Fight"
Boy George, "Crying game"

I'm glad you bought the cassingle; the rest of the Elemental album was wholly unnecessary (although "Brian Wilson Said" was a great song title).

BTW: I see that she's on the AC charts with a song called "Open Arms."  Is this a cover of the Journey tune?  (And did I ask this already?)

another one for songs that quote lyrics from other songs by the same artist. this squeeze song i've never heard before just referenced "coffee...in bed." i'm sure it was black coffee.

I fear we'll hear "Fields of Gold"

I wish we'd hear "Informer" by Snow.  Guilty pleasure, but haven't heard it in 12 years.

BOS: Gin Blossoms, "Hey Jealousy."  One of the best songs of the decade, I'll go out on a limb and say.  Will always associate this with my college experience.
