Subject: Rock The Casbah by The Clash...

Written By: Hairspray on 8/31/2001 at 11:15 a.m.

is a great tune. Unfortunately I don't hear it a lot on the radio- even on 80's music stations. They always play their other hits instead, repetitively.

How is it the chorus goes again???

As per usual- Thanks in advance!!!

This should be amusing...
I thought it was, "Shariff, he don't like it," but for a time I'll admit I was merrily singing, "She reads on the dye kit..."

Thank God for anonymity.

B-52s... I'll tell ya, I still have no clue what the heck she says in that one line (with no music backround).

In Billy Idol's "Eyes Without a Face", I thought for a little while that part of the refrain was:

- Eyes Without A Face. I thought you were British... -

Heh-heh.

Okay, now that we've dissected it, will someone PLEASE burn the master tapes containing this hideous and ridiculously overplayed (even to this day) '80s song?!?

Totally!!!
I think I liked it for a few days when it first came out. It had a kick to it that was certainly right for its time.

I think I've said this before but I'll say it again- It down-right devastates a song to have radio/disc jockeys overplay it. We really do get sick of them sometimes. I can't express this enough. It has always driven me nuts!!!!!!!!!!

I'm with 80smusicfreak on this one. I change it every time it comes on (which is a lot.) I like "Private Idaho" though.

It's still better than "Rock Lobster". I always hated that song, and still fail to see why so many people liked it.

You were that one other individual who stood along with me on the dance floor, arms crossed, brows furrowed, as all of our normally sane friends went, "Down...down..." until they were splayed full out on the floor beating their fists and kicking their feet. What was that?

LOL! That was you, Langdon? And here I though our only shared memories were of the dreaded Penguin plague. ROTFLMAO

That's it. I am officially preventing myself from sipping coffee while reading your posts. NOT nice coming out my nose following the snort of laughter. ROTFL...yeah, me too.

God, I hate[/h] when that happens!

BTW, if it's no bother, I'd really like it if you could dig up that 1-800 penguin number for me. I'm having some really vivid flashbacks lately.
