You... made me look up... *shudder*... â€œHigh Crimes & Misdemeanors (Hip Hop-Cracy)â€.

For those brave enough to listen, here is a hilarious juxtaposition of this terrible, terrible song with some truly bizarre footage:

“Show Me the Way” was frequently heard in a version interspersed with clips from soldiers and soldier families, since it came out about the time the Persian Gulf War began. It was the sort of thing that blows out the phones at radio stations, and it did. My station could have put the thing on a continuous loop and lots of listeners would have been fine with it.

(Actually, we did something like that on April Fools Day one year with “Viva Las Vegas,” but that's another story.)

1) "The American Music Awards welcome back with love, Gloria Estefan."

I still have that clip in my video archive and it still gives me chills when I watch it, knowing what she went through and how she came back to kick every ass including your mama's.

2) Since when are positive Celine Dion reviews allowed at Popdose ? Traitors!

3) Bow down to Mariah Carey. Bow down to her!

Oh God…the mooseknuckle on Timmy T at approximately 20 secs into that horrific video is enough to make me want to visit Total Recall for a mind erase.

I do love me some crappy ass Tara Kemp though and I am unashamed to admit it.
Too bad I will have her song stuck in my head for all hours now.

Suck It, Tommy ShawÂ® is a registered trademark of Dennis DeYoung Enterprises, who directs you to cease and desist all use of said mark under penalty of lawsuit. Or “First Time.” Whichever hurts more.

I've soured on Sting, lo these many years, but “All This Time” is a fairly good single. It's no lute jam, but still…

As for John Panozzo watching over Dennis DeYoung in heaven, I'd imagine his response to you would be, “I'm trying to get AWAY from him, Beau!”

Sting got ripped every which way over the whole “Soul Cages” album, and I still think it's unfair. “All This Time” in particular is one of the most cheerful songs about death ever recorded. Can anyone else think of a better response to “the meek shall inherit the earth” than an old man laughing “What good is a used-up world and how can it be worth having?”

Speaking of death, I can picture John Panozzo in heaven, hearing Dennis DeYoung say they're going to play this song for him, responding, “No, Dennis, really. Please don't.”

John Oates is actually the more musically talented, if vocally and vertically challenged, member of H&O. As for Tears for Fears and Oleta Adams, the “Seeds of Love” period is well worth revisiting, in large part because of Miss O's contributions.
