FM> *Now* I know what you guys were talking about months ago. FM> "Alice" lent me a one-hit-wonders CD and on it was... "Video FM> Killed the Radio Star"! It's clear that your education in classic Rock is severely lacking. You must have wasted your youth in pool rooms instead of listening to Johnny Ray, Johnny O'Keefe, Johnny Cash and the four Beatles John, John, John, and Elvis... BTW, I *finally* discovered the real words to Manfred Mann's "Blinded by the light." This came as a terrible disappointment. For years I thought it went something like... Blinded by the light racked up like a douche, a rubber rover in the night. I was convinced it had to do with condoms and prostitutes. I missed the true meaning by that || much. It's really: Blinded by the light revved up like a deuce another roamer in the night The "deuce" refers to an American motor vehicle made famous by the Beach Boys as "my little deuce coupe" given the incorrect Yank pronunciation of dooce rather than dewce. I like my words better. Now all I have to do is find out what made the waiter turn a whiter shade of pale as the miller told his tale, translate American Pie, and I'll know everything about rock 'n' roll.
