    U.S.: Crimson and Clover by Tommy James and the Shondells
    U.K.: Blackberry Way by The Move {who?}

    So far, I think MoBalls and Kimble14 have the coolest, with their UK hits.

    As soon as I read that, I started hearing that distinct riff and then I started singing it in my head.

    I’ll cross that bridge when I find it
    Another day to make my stand, oh..
    High time is no time for deciding
    If I should find a helping hand, oh..

    whyyyyyyyyy don’t you use it
    Tryyyyyyyyyy not to bruse it
    Buyyyyyyyyyy time don’t lose it

    The reflex is an only child, he’s waiting in the park
    The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
    And watching over lucky clover isn’t that bizarre
    Every little thing the reflex does leaves you answered with a
    Question mark


    I can't help it, now it's stuck there. Damn you for being so catchy Duran Duran.
