The Five Songs You Never-Ever Wanna Hear Again

"Midnight Blue" was far superior to anything in Foreigner's catalogue.

Madonna singing with Fleetwood Mac would have been interesting.

 

Foreigner is one of those '80s bands I don't really wanna hear anymore.

Except for "Urgent" and one other song. I'll listen to "Urgent" any time.
I've always thought it's their best song, and it holds up strong over time.

 

And my other favorite Foreigner song is this one.
A really gorgeous song. And I'll listen to it any time, too.

 

Easily their best song. How the great Junior Walker ended up with them is beyond me but it's still a terrific song.

 

Madonna had so much good music.

Live to Tell, great.

Take a Bow, great.

Papa Don't Preach, great, as is the movie of a video.

Let's not talk shit about Madonna ... at least before she went off the rails in the '90s.

 

That habit was the result of Chuck getting shorted or fucked out of his money once too many times. He was a jackass, but he had his reasons.

 

There was a DJ here in the 90's who had the Friday night shift. Every Friday at 7 he'd sign on by playing "Party Town" by Glen Frey. I never tired of it. Such a good rocker, excellent lyrics.

 

Sure, I know why he did it, but you'd think word would get around the sleazy-underbelly underworld of small club rock promotion, "Hey, 5-10 minutes after every show, Chuck Berry leaves the nightclub with a briefcase with several thousand dollars in cash."

According to most accounts Berry traveled alone, but I've read a few stories about him traveling with "one or two" badass-bodyguard looking types, and supposedly Chuck carried a gun or two himself but still you'd think that would be an inviting target for a half dozen or so young thugs looking for an easy payday.
