shock horror!!

John Denver is THE MAN!!

"Country Boy" rocks out over here! you might be taking it too seriously or something.. loosen up and enjoy! it rocks!! In the club, just past midnight, whack that on and watch the dance floor go wild! it rocks!! Its so funny!

And don't even get me started on "rocky mountain high", "country road" and "jet plane" and cant forget "feather bed" so much meaning for me its inexplicable!

And i've only been listening to his albums for 6 months after i inherited a bundle form my grandad, they are the best!

Thanks a lot, Bruce. I've been singing BANANAPHONE all morning. And I get up early!


Plus, I can't help feeling that the line, "...it ain't no pony" is merely used as a gratuitous rhyming device for the line "...it's no balogney". It doesn't really add to the information about the BANANAPHONE.

Yeah, what the hell is up with that? And I've never seen baloney that looks like that--what are those big white chunks in it?

Thanks!

Check out www.gunthernet.com for a HORRID song... apparently it is the smash summer hit of Europe. I spent the entire summer in Europe and did not hear it at all. It's called the Ding Dong Song.

Agreed. I think it looks like a slice of salami. And if Lookout reads this, no, I don't know how to play "hide the salami" (couldn't let that one go by!)

You don't know how to play "hide the salami"?

Girl, that's just *sad*.

"worst" is so subjective that it is hard to throw one out that is really the worst. one that i equate with fingernails on a chalkboard though is Stairway to Heaven. i hate that song!

and close behind that you can list just about any other Led Zeppelin song. sorry, don't stone me.

Good call. I used to like it actually, but there isn't a classic rock station in the area that doesn't play that song a hundred fucking times a day. and it's usually preceded by an Eagles song, which makes it that much worse. If you can get away with publicly proclaiming that you hate Led Zep, I imagine I can get away with professing my deep hatred of the Eagles.

i have to be honest - there is very little, in the way of music, that i like from the 70's.

black sabbath (original line-up of course)
the misfits (any line up with glenn)

i can't think of much else.
