I like 9 out of 21. That's pretty dang good.
Well, when you put it like that...I like 20/21 so I guess I'm a Walz fanboi. 😆
In other words...what's "Red Wine Supernova"? I have no idea so I can't like it, dislike it, or be nonplussed. 😉
(Maybe I'll look for it on YT. And maybe I won't. heh)
Also, TB -- now I'm wondering which tunes you DON'T like. 😀
@InUnfunky @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
it's called having a discriminating taste ~ hahahahahahahaha
@tgraph52 @InUnfunky @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
Brings to mind what songs in general make me switch the station instantly:
- Give Me one Reason to Stay
- Low Rider
- Sending out an SOS
- We Built this City
- Copa Cabana
@Sr0bi @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
Whoa. You dislike “Message In A Bottle”?
What’s “Give me one reason…”? The Tracy Chapman tune?
I like every WAR song except that one with Eric Burdon, so 🤷🏻♂️😁
“Copa” and “City,” agreed. 😎
@InUnfunky @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
Two SOS's would have been plenty. Yes the Chapman song. Granted it's not the worst available but it's not for me lyric-wise..
@Sr0bi @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
I’m thinking I should come up a list of “popular tunes I dislike.” 😝
@InUnfunky @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
Define popular.
Baby baby Don't get Hooked on Me?
Achy Breaky Heart?
@Sr0bi @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
“Popular” in the widest and most general sense, not derogatory in any way. Non-classical and not jazz. “Popular music” not necessarily restricted to Billboard lists, etc.
But do go on with examples like “Achey Breaky Heart” which I can’t even pretend to appreciate in an ironic manner. 😎🤣
@InUnfunky @Sr0bi @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
My Personal List of the Icons That Define Pop Music:
Bing Crosby
Frank Sinatra
Elvis Presley
The Beatles
Michael Jackson
and then the Interwebs fucked all that up
@tgraph52 @InUnfunky @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
"Fools Rush In" is a must see if youre an Elvis Fan.
@Sr0bi @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
Are you speaking of the Salma Hayek/Matthew Perry flick?
If so, yes I watched it. Primarily for Salma Hayek. 😆
@InUnfunky @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
I can name a chart topping hit that probably none of you sing in the shower, but I'll be showing my age for sure.
@InUnfunky @tgraph52 @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
Was hyuuuge in 1963.
@Sr0bi @InUnfunky @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
it's more of a novelty song than a pop tune
like this:
The Singing Nun
Dominique
@tgraph52 @InUnfunky @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
So kind of like Midnight at the Oasis?
@tgraph52 @InUnfunky @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
Can't really see it as another pop tune.
@Sr0bi @InUnfunky @Bix @JoyfullyDazed
It reached #6 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and #21 in the UK Singles Chart in 1974. Billboard ranked it as the No. 13 song for 1974.
@tgraph52 @Sr0bi @InUnfunky @JoyfullyDazed
