Wow... The 80s ruined music? How'd they go from Somebody to Love and White Rabbit and Volunteer to this... :/ the less electronic chap in music, the better imo
this is one of my favorite songs of the 1980's i like the music video alot i recall a time that rolling stone magazine declared this the #1 worst song i strongly disagree with them 100%
they use to be jefferson airplane then they did some modifications to the plane and thus became jefferson starship. i heard they went broke from paying for all those modifications.
Mickey Thomas has to have one of the best voices ever. Saw him about 10 yrs ago. He was solo at a festival near my house and sang all the Starship songs plus, Fooled Around And Fell In Love. Put on a fantastic show for such a small venue.
Songza had this on itts site: On this day in 1985, "We Built This City" by Starship hit #1 on the charts. In 2004, Blender magazine named it the worst song of all time.
The line is: "Marconi plays the mamba". Marconi was a scientist. In 1909, Marconi shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with Karl Braun for his contributions to radio communications.
@stork0112 This will make a great campaign song for when Ron Paul runs for President in 2012. No more corporation games, the U.S. is controlled by a corrupt Wall St. It's time to take care of America first. Stop spending billions in U.S. tax dollars to invade and brutally occupy sovereign nations in the Middle East, forcing them to accept democracy as a form of government. No more Obamas or Bushes, only RON PAUL 2012 THE RON PAUL REVOLUTION
