I only dance, dance, dance when the sun goes by. Who-oa! De-de-de-de. Who-oa! De-de-de-de. You wanna dance, dance, dance when the night is high. Who-oa! De-de-de-de. Who-oa! De-de-de-de.
Repeat.

Stephen Stills “Down the Road” (1973) One of the guys in this band has the first name of Fuzzy. Whether that’s the name his momma gave his or a moniker of his own choosing is irrelevant. The guy’s name is Fuzzy. His last name is Samuel, which I hope people shortened to Sam. Then when you had an appointment with him, you’d be meeting Fuzzy Sam. Wow. |

Susan Marshall “Perfect Love” (1986) The front cover of this album is archeological evidence that there were cute girls in the late 1980s. You might think that the back cover, showing Susan in cowboy boots and a full bodysuit made of snakeskin might move her out of the cute category and into the scary bar skank classification, but you’d be wrong. Everyone wore snakeskin bodysuits in the ‘80s. |

Dave Alvin “Romeo’s Escape” (1987) Some albums make you feel like you’re in a dive bar that has a small stage and incredibly cheap drinks. The kind of bar that you always end the night at after you’ve been fooling around with other joints. This is one of those albums. |
 |
The Bottles “I Don’t Wanna Be Your Man” (1979) There aren’t enough glass bottles around. When’s the last time you’ve had a Coke in a glass bottle that’s sweetened with sugar and not corn syrup? You can still find them in some countries, but they’re a dying breed. After you have one, you realize that society has failed by letting this treat slip away. |

Nude Ants “America, (We’re On Holiday)” (1983)
Whenever I travel, I do my best to speak quietly because whenever I hear another American saying something, they’re almost always saying something dumb at an uncalled for decibel level. Pretending to be Canadian is easy, but when I get drunk I like to pretend I’m an Italian that speaks with a Jamaican accent while kissing them on the cheeks. |

Jo-El Sonnier “Tear-Stained Letter” (1988)
Superman’s dad can play accordion? |
| Chris Rock “Your Mother’s Got a Big Head” (1991)
Think being a great comedian is easy? Then listen to this proof that it takes a lot of practice and embarrassing fuck ups to reach the top. |
