A place I used to hang out at called Smart Bar gave away free copies of Saigon Kick's first album on cassette. I'll admit that I listened to it once and then recorded other random stuff on top of it. I'm sure I still have it somewhere...

I'm not sure if people got that this song was satirizing yuppies.

[QUOTE=mr_crisp;4201775]Is Herb Alpert considered uncool?[/QUOTE]To me it depends on the song. But then again, there isn't much music I listen to that would be "embarrassing" to admit I like.

Herb Alpert was the performer of the "unofficial" Bond film "Casino Royale". A nice piece of trivia is that his wife, Lani Hall was the singer for the other major non-official "Never Say Never Again". Knowing this fills me with an embarassing amount of pride.

"Eye In The Sky" scared me as a child.
Now I know what they mean about the Illuminati. >>
Actually that would be a good song for Dr. Strange. Or a bad one?

I actually saw [B]Streets of Fire[/B] in the theater when it came out. Director Walter Hill ( The Warriors, 48 hrs) called it his "rock n roll fable." It starred Diane Lane ( who actually is in one of my favorite rock movies [B]Ladies and Gentlemen The Fabulous Stains[/B]), Michael Pare, and a young William DeFoe. The movie itself wasn't a hit, but the soundtrack was. The best known song is probably "I Can Dream About You" by Dan Hartman. In the movie it's performed by a Temptations-ish group called The Sorells which included Stony Jackson and Robert Townsend. Anyway, this song was written by Jim Steinman who wrote songs for Meatloaf.

Oh! I almost forgot, Lee Ving, the singer from punk rock band Fear is a member of DeFoe's biker gang. He also showed up in [B]Flashdance[/B] and a few other movies and TV from this era.

That actually put me in the mood for [B]Flashdance[/B]. I'm pretty sure I mentioned in an older post I saw this at the show with my mom...

Q: What did Batman say when Robin fell off the roof?
A: "Fly Robin, fly!"
This was a popular joke when I was a child. The punchline was this song
[video=youtube;oUPdG4DA42g]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUPdG4DA42g[/video]
I'm not embarrassed for liking it, but it is funny that the lyrics are basically just one line.

I remember the Robin punchline, too, ed, though not nearly as memorable as "Jingle bells, Batman smells..." which was fairly new when I first heard it. :)

Oh, I remember that one as well, like since kindergarten! You're no doubt aware that it made it into the 90's Batman cartoon!
