    Yacht rock is anything a 30 something mom of many could sing along to in the late 1970s/early 1980s while laying out on a deck that was the equivalent size of the above ground pool attached to it while drinking wine with an ice cube.

    Any song you can picture being followed by “Steal Away “ by Robbie Dupree is yacht.

    Dan Top 10
    1. Any Major Dude Will Tell You
    2. Everyone's Gone To The Movies - the sickest concept for a song ever created, but it is catchy as fuck ... part of its subversiveness.
    3. Dirty Work
    4. Doctor Wu
    5. Rikki Don't Lose That Number
    6. Peg
    7. Midnite Cruiser
    8. Barrytown - I'm quite partial to Side A of "Pretzel Logic"
    9. Show Biz Kids
    10. Deacon Blues

    All fantastic. Could easily go 25-ish deep on Dan songs.

    Wait. I missed something here. Was somebody trying to make the argument that Greg Kihn was yacht rock?
