And on Kazaa as having been done by They Might Be Giants. Which irritates me greatly.
Substitute "Istanbul" for "88 lines" and you are me.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!
'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
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.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'll stick with the original 4 Lads' version of "Istanbul," thanks. Fun '50s novelty.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

But they did do it. Just not first. Which I actually didn't know until recently.
You have, like, zero respect for me now.
I mean, still.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Do NOT be dissing the two Johns. Any of you. I will hunt you down like the dogs you are and make you listen to Whitesnake albums until your ears bleed.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I was gonna say! TMBG can do no wrong by me. I love their version of "Istanbul."

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
I have all their albums. Anyone so much as thinks a negative thought about TMBG, s/he gets it. a man came up to me and said "I'd like to change your mind/by hitting it with a rock," he said, "though I am not unkind"

Anyone so much as thinks a negative thought about TMBG,
You mean like, "They used to be good but their last five albums sucked and were tuneless?"

All is well that ends in pizza.
I haven't been to a concert since the 80's.
I went to a bunch of nostalgia tours. I think the last one was Gary Lewis and The Playboys at a packed house in Detroit Lakes, MN. After the concert, he brushed by me in the crowd.
Before that saw Jan & Dean with The Trashmen in Fargo, ND.
Before that I think it was the Beach Boys, at the We Fest venue in Detroit Lakes, MN. That same venue saw Three Dog Night and The Grass Roots in a triple bill with another band I can't recall.
I saw Ricky Nelson just before his untimely death, and Juice Newton, and a couple of others. I wanted to apologize to them for having to play a fieldhouse in Wahpeton, ND.
I think I saw more, but a lot of the concerts sort of run together in my mind.
I'm sure I saw the Johnny Holm band, and Head East.
Oh, and I went to a concert by the Glenn Miller Orchestra. Some of the players were very old.

Enlighten me then - which of their last five albums didn't suck.
