I watch this video and think of the girl I was with when this song was on the charts. It really makes my heart pound.

"Comparing The Monkees to The Beatles would be like comparing William Shatner to Neil Armstrong." - Mickey Dolenz

Not really baby boomers and not exactly Gen - X. That group caught in between had a few cultural gems of their own. One of them was the music of The Pretenders.

This short is sick.

What so few women in this world do not realize is that this is a torment that every man on this planet goes through. There comes a time in every man's life when he asks himself this same question: man or muppet? Some men never come to a resolution. It is pure torture.

@paxmule I was once told that it takes 7 years for the crave to finally die. I'm 8 years clean and I think tht it's the truth. But it is a nightmare. My kicking the scag was akin to Trainspotting. Sweating, chills, anxiety, tension. The one thing that did not happen was the weight gain. I d...

Clubbing in the 1980s...it was more fun than any one person deserved! And this was one of those brilliant dance tunes of the day. Black jeans, white oxford shirt, thin black tie (collar undone), white sneakers or shoes, hair gel and earring in left ear. LOL! Yes, there was once a time when I ...

Graceland was one of the most important albums of the 1980s, both artistically and politically. Though some said that he was making money off the plight of black S Africa, others knew that it bred more awareness to the suffering than anything else in the music world.

@annalaren I was headed to Paris from Luxembourg. It's a long story. But do know that your reply to my post was very encouraging because it does involve writing. Something I've only recently started. Take care.

@JulietsMan Barack Obama made it illegal to bring toothpase onto airplanes? So, jets slammed into the WTC during the Bush presidency and the Dept. of Homeland Security (a bureaucracy created by Bush) draws up a list of things that cannot be brought onto planes. Yet this is a freedom that's been...

Vantage, Merit, Marlboro lights (among others) billed themselves as being safer. In reality, they were "starter" cigarettes. I'm clean now (thank god) but my first brand was Merits...then Marlboro Lights and finally Marlboro Reds. Kicking was a nightmare. Best of luck to anyone trying. It is...

Tina was absolutely lucious.

She's got pretty tits. So, why the hell not?

Harpo Speaks is a brilliant book. It's for anyone who,loves a good story. I read it in two days. Could not put it down.

@moregood1963 I never meant to say that The Beatles were the only messengers or had the only message. Too many people - especially baby boomers - seem to think that the social movements of the 1960's began solely with them, forgetting (or rather ignoring) that there were pacifist movments throug...

December 1980 and Springsteen was touring The River. I was a casual fan at best and had no idea that he'd written this. It was a heck of a trreat to see him sit at the piano (the show was at The Boston Garden) and do this number. But just like "Fire," and The Pointer sisters, Patty actually do...

@montereypopfestiva67 But they did a follow up Xmas song as well. Did they get sued both times?

The simple pleasures in life. Spark up a dube, turn on this tune, a tuck into your favorite issue of "Mr. Natural." And I'm a kid again...

One of the albums that set the tone for a new generation. That stupid generation who thought that they'd invented rock (and you know who you are) hadn't the foggiest clue what this album, what this group and what the new young people were even talking about. We had a sound all our own,,,and all...

This album was one of a handful that began the '80 in spirit, fashion, attitude and musical theory. Others included The Cars debut album, The Pleasure Principle, Parallel Lines, Empty Glass, Look Sharp, My Aim Is True, Argy Bargy, London Calling, Beauty and the Beat, Outlandous d'Amour, Just Can...

Music videos...protraying stories related to the subject song...shown on a channel once dedicated to showing music videos...yes....yes...it's all coming back to me!

@msk7046 New Jersey (named after a British Channel Island) is West of NYC. New "Guernsey," Jersey's sister island in the English Channel, is EAST of Gotham City. Get it?

Julie Newmar...crrrrroaaarrr.

One of the songs and vids that set the tone for a generation.

As a kid, watching Foster Brooks, I'd swear by anything that he was really sauced. He's sober a a judge in this bit. But no one was able to do this bit like he did. Unreal.

@mrk1839 I shudder to think what you meant by "one more year of daddy's little girl."

@LifeBloodMarketing Were you able to sit outside and have an ice cream or a glass of wine? There's that great Italian "eiskafe" on the main street, not too far from the Porto Negra. If not, go get yourself a Bitburg!

Ja, geile...

Music of this calibre happens only once in human history.

Brilliant.

An American singing and speaking certain words in French with a German accent. A small slice of theatrical brilliance that many took for granted when this man played this role. Btw, it's all perfect.

An anthem of love and unity like no other. I've always loved this song but never had the opportunity to see it performed, either live or on TV. thank you so much for this clip!

The original footage of this clip must be worth millions.

I think I'm in love.

@Analisa416 The song is "We'll Be Together" from the album "Nothing Like the Sun." It was the album published after "Blue Turtles."

Legs up to her neck, gorgeous brown hair and a face of a heartbreaker. Julie Newmar was one of the seixeist women in TV history.

Gong hay fat choi from New York City! Good health, happiness and prosperity for the Year of the Dragon!

@pepsiandsnapple Eli's going to Indy! Hide your heart, girl!

Prophetic, to say the least!
