Personally, I think it's more wrong that you've just admitted to playing airguitar to "Freebird". . .

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
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.
Giles sang it on Buffy! (Didn't he?)
In "The Yoko Factor", yes. I was about to mention that.
Hec, you should be jealous that JZ can't ID those songs. True story: I made it through 1996 without ever having heard the Macarena song. I was so proud! I knew it existed, obviously, but through luck and pluck, I ever heard the actual song. Then, in January 1997, I was watching some year-end wrap-up on the news. Without warning, they broadcast footage of the Democratic National Convention at which thousands of groove-impaired politicians danced to... the Macarena. Boy, was I pissed! At the same time, I could not imagine a more painfully appropriate way for my streak to end.

Well, I'm not a hypocrite. I can own up to my 70s rock past without shame. My first concert was Black Sabbath with Van Halen opening. I even saw Kansas live (pretty damn dull). Punk might've been happening, but you couldn't tell from suburban Florida.
... only for a moment but the moment's gawwwn....
All we are is dust in the wind.
Dude.
Damn, where did I leave my lighter.
Um, wasn't there a cheesy 80s cover of Freebird and some other song? That's why I know it.

And Baby I Love Your Way. But I can't remember who did it.

I've still never heard "Toxic." A lot of times I'll hear pop songs months after everyone else is sick of them, and it's always disconcerting because they NEVER sound the way they do in my head. (Like the "Milkshake" song, which I finally heard last night? It should be slower, and Kelis has a deeper voice in my head.)
And I'm not sure if I could identify "Freebird" without hearing the "I'm as freeee as a biiiird" part, or "Money" without hearing the cash registers. I'm a bit classic rock-deficient.
