    Why are there copies of the Style section all over the place?
    I've actually never seen the film. There are some scenes in that book that I just don't think that I could stomach, and I'm a huge horror fan.

    The other Weakest Link albums made me want to give them a spin after having sat dormant for a while. This one not so much, ha. My dad had this tape back in the day, and hearing some of these songs again brings back the nostalgia of childhood.

    Whaaaat?!?!?! Dude, watch it!!! ... It's actually not unpalatable at all - not for a horror movie fan, anyway. I can't imagine you'll have any trouble stomaching this amazing, fucking fantastic movie.

    Huge, giant, letdown from the book...but still a crazy movie.  Haven't watched in a long time but I liked it.

    I also can't stand Christian Bale, so perhaps it's fitting that he plays the biggest douchebag of 20th century american literature.

    He is PERFECT for this role. Really, watch it. :)

    Ugh....I know his radio and MTV music but I'm not a fan. Was hoping for Van Halen's first album or something. 

    I'll listen and vote cause I'm not gonna be a hypocrite. But...ugh.

    Not playing because you don't want to listen to the album doesn't make you a hypocrite. ;)

    Yes, just vote for the winner so that @MedozK can redeem himself with the next album. :smiley: 

    I wanna a new drug to listen to this. Gotta go find my leg warmers and hair spray first.

    Yes it would - I said it's just music and what's the problem with just listening and voting. I know most of the songs but I will listen for the ones I don't know.

    I keep seeing Huey Lewis' face going into a sink full of ice when I think of this.  Thanks for trying to give me an out PJ, I'll vote on them all. :weary:

    Oh I see. Well, I skipped one because I just didn't want to spend that time listening to music I hate. For me, having to do that is definitely a problem, lol. I could be using that time listening to music I love!!

    So, Huey seems a little more popular than Lynyrd.  :)
    That's a fucking crime!
    Ha, I know, but actually I really like both.
    I have found common ground with @dankind in these threads. Not that we ever went at it  :confused: - but I've agreed with everything  he's posted so far. We'll see what the future holds. And I can't help thinking that his choice is a commentary, instead of an actual pick. :lol:

    My apologies to Huey fans, not a commentary on youse guys. 

    Music is subjective.

    Obviously it is. And I think it's just plain fun music, and nostalgic, plus they seem like such nice guys, lol. There is something very endearing about this band. We all know it's not the greatest music ever written.

    Oh dang!  I'm too young to have heard this one when it came out.

    Now wait a minute... a memory coming back.  Yeah, now I remember.  I was maybe 3 or 4, having a beer and some nachos at Chevy's, some song about hearts and rock and roll.  Sorry, that's all I've got this time around.  :smile:
