Obv. we're getting some Brooooce.  Prolly some JC Mellonball, maybe Tina's "What's Love."  Longshot pick: Jefferson Starship's "No Way Out."

U2's "Pride" has officially passed the tipping point: I don't think I ever want to hear it again.  (Not a crankypants comment, but an overkill one.)

"For Martin Luther King ... schwing!"

It's certainly one of many '80s staples that could be shelved for 6 months or so.  VHM Percy & the Honeydrippers.

and speaking of tipping points: the inevitable Cars.  At least they didn't spell their name "Carz", y'know?

Now come the crankypants: I don't want to hear that beanpole sing about "summer, summer, summer" when the windchill has the NYC air feeling like 0 degrees.

P.S.  There should be federal regulations against rhyming "upside-down" with "merry-go-round."  Especially when you rhyme "down" with "down" in a subsequent verse.

but that's one of the joys of living in a city with 4 seasons, innit? :lol:  Doncha love people (usually Northeasterners) who say they could "never live in Cali or AZ" because they need those seasons?

Yes, I have heard that a lot.  But I'm just the opposite.  You'd think that growing up in Pittsburgh I'd be inured to the elements.  But my 5 years in CA ruined me: I want a climate-controlled earth, 70 degrees and sunny year-round.  This has easily been the most challenging of my three NY winters.

I feel your pain and I'd gladly trade places for a year.  I'm quite torn about the subject; my trip made me quite homesick for NYC, but then I came back to SF and the next day I did my Saturday morning errands in shorts & a t-shirt -- in Nov.  But if I won the lottery and could afford a fab pad in Chelsea, I'd be very tempted to move.

BOS to Van Halen, "I'll Wait."  Behind the thick keyboards was one of Jah Roth's better lyrics.
