Yes Rath...some how I have too copies of the 45 and now that I think about it my original has "He's A Rebel" and the other one which came from a juke box out of a pizzeria (don't ask) had Hasta Manana.

Jezzuz. I'm getting arguments from the only two kids who had JUKEBOX copies. No wonder I have a headache. :P

Hey. You wanna know what paradise is? It's a lie...

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

"By Right said Fred - and I'm too Sexy IS the title!"

Have you ever heard the Alvin and the Chipmunks vervsion? Hilarious.

Suprised there has been no mention of Love Shack yet. Early nineties music rocks. EDIT: Anyone remember Everybody Dance Now by C&C Music Factory?

robbiej "I've Never Been To Me" That was a real oucher! Did you know that there was also a "male version" of th esame song?

"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen." Conan O'Brien

A male version?! LOL! "I've been undressed by kings/And I've seen some things/A woman ain't s'posed to see..." It makes no sense with a woman singing it, with a man singing it, it's downright dada!

Um, Miss Charlene, what exactly is a woman not s'posed to see and why are you pulling this self-righteous trip on my a$$?!

No borst, they actually have different words for the male version. (I can not believe I remember this)
The story is about a guy who drank his life away and spend many years in jail.
May be even worse.
