    AND...

    "Impulsive" ... Wilson Phillips.

    I liked the quiet redhead the most.

    Holy shit Shottie. For all the guff I give you about liking that girly sport soccer, I'm as much a sucker for a sappy chick-sung love song as you.

    That Expose song "I'll Never Get Over You..." broke my heart every time I heard it in the summer of '92. And don't forget "Your Baby Never Looked Good In Blue."

    And Sheena Easton...wow. That's a classic too.

    Soccer still sucks though! :D

    The Roots. This takes me back to Roswell, and the girl, who introduced me to the band.

    I'm grew up a big fan of H&O (they were among the few artists my dad and I both liked), but somehow that one slipped under my radar until a few years ago. Love that song. Love, love, love that song. I bought the double CD greatest hits just to have it.

    How that perfect pop song wasn't a bigger hit boggles my mind.

    Oh and Shottie...the best Wilson Phillips ballad is their last one: "You Won't See Me Cry."

    Second to "Impulsive" for me. That was one contagious song.

    Yes, yes, yes.
    I had the biggest thing for Wendy Wilson when they first hit it big. Then there was that one video where they dressed like tramps and Carnie was hidden under the covers of a bed or something, and I fell in love with Chyna, too :)

    I'm pretty sure that was "You Won't See Me Cry."

    Nor will they see me... :D :D :D

    Great jam. A couple of other ZZ songs off the top of my head: Mexican Blackbird, Blue Jean Blues, Dust My Broom, Manic Mechanic, My Head's In Mississippi

    BYH,
    What's a 'crucifixation,' the obsession with the death of Christ?

    Can't wait to get home to my CD collection.
