I find it a very moving tune about regret. Btw there is MacCarthers Park where the writer of the song lived by it. And there were birthday parties when some of the cake was left and the rain would wash it away.slimedoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00909367914107545835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-29278531646514225392016-09-30T02:55:18.795-07:002016-09-30T02:55:18.795-07:00"She's Like the Wind" Patrick Swayze..."She's Like the Wind" Patrick Swayze.<br /><br />"Chantilly Lace", "Monster Mash"<br /><br />ANNND....THE ABSOLUTE WORST SONG EVER HEARD IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE:<br /><br />"I THINK I'M GONNA STAY WITH YOU AWHILE" (How he makes me quiver...)

This, my friends, is important anthropological material.<br /><br />No mention yet of "Stay Awhile" by The Bells, which appears to be a treacly and tender account of a sexual assault of some kind, with a little Stockholm Syndrome thrown in for good measure.

First, he's not a "singer" he's a comedian. Special, Hermaphrodite, and Grandfather (the ones you referenced) are meant to be comical, and offensive, to get laughs. I would even count them as "songs", but that's just me.<br />Same thing goes for the asshole song. You really think Dennis Leary was trying to make a hit song? If it were the case that comedy songs be included, then I'm surprised no one mentioned anything about Weird Al (Whom I also love). So I think comedy songs should be left out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-75857100653579030792009-06-01T16:10:23.048-07:002009-06-01T16:10:23.048-07:00Toss-up of Beatles songs Why Don't We Do It In...Toss-up of Beatles songs Why Don't We Do It In the Road and Revolution #9Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-36345784081706391052009-06-01T10:33:44.892-07:002009-06-01T10:33:44.892-07:00Don't forget "I'm a Girl Watcher", a tribute to st...Don't forget "I'm a Girl Watcher", a tribute to stalkers.
