    Speaking of Benny and Joon, What's Eating Gilbert Grape was on yet again wednesday night-Johnny Depp is a great actor-and I must say..leonardo made a great retarded guy.

    Hey, Neil Diamond is the man.

    As far as the Proclaimers song... I heard that too much and am sick of it.

    well, considering the musical company in this thread, how about some MANILOW!?

    "Her name was Lola,
    she was a show girl,
    with yellow feathers in here hair and a dress cut down to there.
    She knew merengue, she knew the Cha-Cha...."

    OR

    "I write the songs that make the whole world sing...."

    now enjoy havin' those songs in your head...

    Thanks to that I can now hear Air Supply going through my head too.... dammit...

    I think over again
    My small adventures, my fears.
    The small ones that seemed so big,
    For all the vital things I had to get and to reach.

    And yet there is only one great thing, the only thing:

    To live to see the great day that dawns,
    And the light that fills the world.

    I've always liked The Proclaimer's "500 Miles". Is the rest of their music as good?

    Okay, I love Neil & Barry. How about this...

    Sing us a song you're the piano man, sing us a song tonight.
    Well, we're all in the mood for a melody and you got us feelin' alright.
    Oh, da dee da dee dee dum , da da dee dee dum, da dum...

    Heh heh.

    I see your Barry Manilow, and I'll raise you a Burton Cummings:

    Sometimes late at night
    when there's nothing here except my old piano
    I'd almost give my hands to make you see my way

    Chorus
    Stand Tall, don't you fall oh, don't go and do something foolish
    you're feeling it like everyone, it's silly human pride;
    You got me down on my knees for ya, mama
    Stand Tall, don't you fall. donn't go do something you'll regret later
    you're feeling it like everyone, it's silly human pride

    That's it, i'm putting an end to all this.

    If you leave me now, you take away the biggest part of me.
    Ooo oh, baby please don't go.
    If you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me.
    Ooo oh, baby please don't go.
    Ooo, oh, I just want you to stay.

    A love like ours is love that's hard to find.
    How could we let it slip away?
    We've come too far to leave it all behind.
    How could we end it all this way?
    When tomorrow comes and we both regret the things we said today.

    Feelings, nothing more than feelings.
    Trying to forget my feelings of love.

    A song that gets stuck in my head from the '80s is My Sharona by The Knack.
