Subject: "19" song from summer of 1985
Does anyone know what group sang the song "19" that came out some time in the summer of 1985? I have not heard that song since 1985 and it's a real shame because it was an excellent song. It kinda had a rap sound only in the chorus, kinda like this: "N-n-n-n-n---n-n--n-n-n-n-n--nineteen".... Another line: "The average age of a Vietnam soldier was nineteen."
I hope someone out there that reads that can tell me who sings this great song! I just never got around to getting a copy of it when it was popular. If I could find the name of the band I could look up how to get it on the web.
I appreciate any help I can get!
Thanks!!
