Billy, welcome back! There was some sort of football game on?

Just saw the video. Insipid lyrics, yet somehow able to keep my attention.

Hey Sharon,

Thanks for the Haskins info. Rest assured, I have no aspirations to advance my coaching “career” past high school.

OK, about Army of Lovers…I am guessing that Yiddish might have seen that on an old Beavis and Butt-head episode. I can’t remember all of the comments from those “comic masters”, but I remember another video that I only saw on Beavis and Butt-head:

Hey Yiddish…

WAS THAT SWEET OR WHAT?!?!?!?!?

Just got back from the Rose Bowl where we left a bunch of used Trojans strewn about the field…

I’ll check in tomorrow morning…especially to respond to Army of Lovers…and you too, Sharon. I’m pooped.

Yid, sorry we don’t do gag videos. What was that? That one guy made Prince look like Terminator.

annika, how could you take world events so flippantly?

krafty – Seems like I have a long an meandering story for every song… but. I was about 13 years old and that song came on to a lite rock station that my bedside clock radio was set to.

I loved that song. The next day, I came home from school and sat by the radio for hours waiting for it to come on again. Turns out that the song was definitely not on their rotation but the DJ played it for fun.

Wasted an entire day and didn’t hear the song again until Dr. Demento played it years later.

So yeah, Kraftwerk!

Billy,
You want to know who else coached high school GIRLS basketball? A fella named Don Haskins who was the first coach to start an all black team in the NCAA championship game with the Texas Miners (now UTEP) against Kentucky–and some nobody players, like, uh, Pat Riley.
That girls basketball coach won the NCAA in 1966 against all odds. (See–the last sentence relates to an 80s song-Against All Odds-Phil Collins)

Gawsh, I wish I could stick around this weekend to see where this goes.

Off to the Rose Bowl to watch UCLA ruin USC’s title hopes.

I’ll be back Sat. night or Sunday to see where this discussion went. Looking for the answer to comment #25 (see end of it)

Cranky, feel free to open up an 80’s Tubing discussion ANYTIME!

Leaving y’all with this:
