    I think I just want to save money...I also think I am pretty, and damn conservative...However, there are times when I can at "once-in-a-blue-moon" times identify with the cows, er...liberals and make believe the grass is green and not defication...(which it really is)...I like to slap the backs of the cadre of liberal slanted folk...

    One topic that I'd like to offer as a mutual likening is our appreciation for fine music...Music is often appreciated by both animals on each side of the fence...I know this. You know this...While I cannot appreciate the visual characteristics accompanied by Boy George,...I paused the other day to acknowledge the incredulous musical appeal...I heard "I know you miss me", and it seemed to be a nice, classic from the 80's...I tend to dislike music from the 80's, but I find it strange that I like most of his music....

    Are you sure it's 'his' music and not 'hers'?

    BTW, I'm not sure I have a "favorite" Boy George song.

    I never really liked Culture Club during the height of their popularity, but started liking them a few years leater (early 90's)...

    Strange indeed...


    Oh, and I can't really say I like 1 song any more than the others, but some of my favorites :

    Do You Really Want to Hurt me?
    Time (Clock of the Heart)
    Karma Chameleon
    After the Love
    Generations of Love
    Sweet Toxic Love
    Everything I Own
    Move Away

    Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?

    Give me time
    To realise my crime
    Let me love and steal
    I have danced inside your eyes
    How can I be real


    Do you really want to hurt me
    Do you really want to make me cry
    Precious kisses
    Words that burn me
    Lovers never ask you why
    In my heart the fires burning
    Choose my colour
    Find a star
    Precious people always tell me
    That's a step
    A step too far


    Do you really want to hurt me
    Do you really want to make me cry
    Do you really want to hurt me
    Do you really want to make me cry


    Words are few
    I have spoken
    I could waste a thousand years
    Wrapped in sorrow
    Words are token
    Come inside and catch my tears
    You've been talking but believe me
    If its true
    You do not know
    This boy loves without a reason
    I'm prepared to let you go


    If it's love you want from me
    Then take it away
    Everything is not what you see
    It's over today


    Do you really want to hurt me
    Do you really want to make me cry
    Do you really want to hurt me
    Do you really want to make me cry


    edit:
    especially when sung by the Boy George wannabe from "The Wedding Singer" :D

    Boom...

    how da hell can a guy with a Bruce D. quote in his sig claim to like anything from that guy/girl/whatever...?

    Those two things would seem to be mutually exclusive..

    I'm a child of the 80's. Fortunately (or un-) I grew up on 93Q and KRBE when they were pure pop stations. As cheesy as it was(is), I'm a sucker for 80's new wave music.:D

    Actually, the quote is from a Saturday Night Live skit where Christopher Walken plays Bruce Dickinson as he is trying to produce Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear The Reaper". It was some spoof of one of those "Behind The Music" things that VH1 does. Probably my favorite SNL skit ever. Here is a link to a page that has a heavily edited Quicktime version of the skit. Click on the TV Appearances to the left and scroll down the following page to the SNL logo and click on the red link to the right.

    BTW...what is IM?:)

    LOL...oh no...Iron Maiden (the band Bruce sings for) are now SNL material??
    That explains why I didn't recognize it...I haven't watched SNL since Eddie Murphy was on it..

    Talking about 80's music is depressing to me. 80's music to kids today is what 50's music was to me when I was a teen in the 70's. It's hard for me to believe that "Let's Go To The Hop" is the same to me as "Billie Jean" or "Purple Rain" is to teens today.


    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
