There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

sumi, here it is.
Two lousy sentences. Humph.
I mean, obviously, they're two brilliant sentences, but I know my husband and I know he had plenty more to say worth hearing. Stupid actual teenager, hogging up all the talk time with her first-hand experience of Jonas Brothers fandom! What does she know?
