6360. I don't recall this song. The only really early Janet Jackson tunes that I know are Nasty and What Have You Done For Me Lately?

6359. "You are listening to AM Gold." Uck. This so is so BORING. It does absolutely nothing for me.

6358. Tina can make any song her own, but I'm partial to the original too.

6357. I like this song, but the title just sounds so dirty to me. I guess I'm just a pervert. LOL.

6356. Don't know it.

6355. I've never heard a single Van Halen song when Hagar was in the group. Sounds like I'm not missing much.

6354. This is a fun song, but it can get run in the ground.

6353. No clue.

6352. Don't know it.

6351. Never heard of it.

6350. Sounds familiar...

6349. Love this song. I wish I knew more music by Tears for Fears. I think they're really good. But I only know this and I think two other songs.

6348. Don't know it.

6347. See above.

6346. Don't know anything by this group.

6345. I wouldn't even put foreign language versions of songs that I liked on a list like this to begin with. I'll still to my native English, thank you very much.

6344. As Ebert and Roeper would say, two thumbs up.

6343. Don't know it.

6342. Never heard of this group.

6341. Some of their songs are okay (I don't know this particular one), but I'm not big on U2.

6357. I guess you are!

6360. Let's Wait Awhile-Janet Jackson 1987
I'm not much of a Janet fan, but this one isn't bad at all.

6359. Seasons in the Sun-Terry Jacks 1974
Great 70s pop!

6358. Let's Stay Together-Tina Turner 1984
Tina does a nice job with this one.

6357. Touch Me in the Morning-Diana Ross 1973
Beautiful melody - one of my favorites of hers.

6356. Fresh-Kool & the Gang 1985
Loved this back in the day, and still like it a lot, although not quite as much as I did then.

6355. Big Fat Money-Van Halen 1995
I don't know this one, but in general, I'm not too fond of their later material.

6354. In the Summertime-Mungo Jerry 1970
Interesting skiffle tune. I've heard that they were promoted back then as the "next big thing", kind of like The Knack/Beatles comparisons in 1979.

6353. Komm, Gib Mir Deine Hand-Beatles 1964
I have this on one of their LPs, but haven't heard it in years. I like it, but prefer the original version.

6352. What a Fool Believes-Doobie Brothers 1979
Love this! One of their best McDonald-era tunes.

6351. Dr. Heckyll & Mr. Jive-Men at Work 1983
This was a big fave of mine in high school. I still enjoy it a lot.

6350. Sunny-Bobby Hebb 1966
I've always liked this one.

6349. Shout-Tears For Fears 1985
Great song from my high school days.

6348. Mystery Man-Tom Petty 1977
I can't quite place this one.

6347. Used to Bad News-Boston 1978
You're right about those two tracks being the only ones that get much airplay. I need to pick up Don't Look Back one of these days.

6346. Go-Asia 1985/86
Another favorite. I bought their Astra cassette back in 1986 just for this song.

6345. Sie Liebt Dich-Beatles 1964
Not as enjoyable to listen to as the English version, but still a good tune.

6344. La Bamba-Ritchie Valens 1958/59
A classic, but a little overplayed.

6343. My Heart Can't Tell You No-Rod Stewart 1988/89
I'm kind of undecided on this one. It's definitely not up to the level of his earlier material, though.

6342. Call Me-The Storm 1991
I'm not familiar with this one.

6341. Desire-U2 1988
I grew a little tired of this one when they used it in promos for the Olympics. Not bad, but not their best.

6354. The next big thing?? YIKES!!

6360. Let's wait Awhile-Janet Jackson 1987
OK, but not great. Kinda surprised the pro-abstinence crowd hasn't picked up on this one.

6359. Seasons in the Sun-Terry Jacks 1974
This was actually my favorite song for awhile when I was 8 years old

6358. Let's Stay Together-Tina Turner 1984
Prefer Al Green's version.

6357. Touch Me in the Morning-Diana Ross 1973
Tolerable would be the best way to describe it.

6356. Fresh-Kool & the Gang 1985
OK, but the "she's so fresh" repetition got on my nerves after awhile.

6355. Big Fat Money-Van Halen 1995
Don't know it.

6354. In the Summertime-Mungo Jerry 1970
Like this one, pretty catchy. A lot is made of the "have a drink, have a drive" part nowadays. As one of our local DJs, Mike Smith, would say, "Mungo Jerry sings a medley of their hit."

6353. Komm, Gib Mir Deine Hand-Beatles 1964
Never heard it. Gesundheit and Volkswagen are the only German words I know.

6352. What a Fool Believes-Doobie Brothers 1979
Probably my favorite of the McDonald era. BTW, have you seen his new "Neighborhood" commercial? He looks old!

6351. Dr. Heckyll & Mr. Jive-Men at Work 1983
I know I've heard it, but I've forgotten it.

6350. Sunny-Bobby Hebb 1966
OK if kind of overplayed. Supposedly written about the Creator.

6349. Shout-Tears For Fears 1985
Way repetitive.

6348-6346. Don't know them

6345. Sie Liebt Dich-Beatles 1964
See 6353.


6344. La Bamba-Ritchie Valens 1958/59
Between this one and Los Lobos' remake, I've had my fill of this one, thank you.(It might help if I knew what they were singing about--and Spanish was my major in high school...*sigh*)


6343. My Heart Can't Tell You No-Rod Stewart 1988/89
Give me Maggie May or You Wear It Well anyday.

6342. Call Me-The Storm 1991
Don't know it.

6341. Desire-U2 1988
Not much of a U2 fan--sorry...

6352. Yes! Sorta Santa Claus like!

6350. As in God??

6341. Neither am I!

This song used to be one of my favorites, and I still listen to it every once in a while.

This song kind of annoys me.

I haven't heard this song.

Most of their stuff annoys me and this song is one of them.

I haven't heard this song.

6350. Sunny-Bobby Hebb 1966
This song irritates me too.

6349. Shout-Tears For Fears 1985
This song is all right, I guess. I've heard worse.

I only heard this once and I don't remember that much about it.

I'm not too wild about this song either.

6342. Call Me-The Storm 1991
I haven't heard this song yet.

6341. Desire-U2 1988
I'm not too big on U2 anyway, and I really don't care for this song that much.

6348. Wow, surprised you heard this one!

Let's Wait Awhile--Seemed they showed this video on MTV (or VH1) every five minutes back in the day. I got tired of hearing it, and seeing it.

Seasons in the Sun--A childhood favorite of mine. In fact, I have a very old cassette tape of myself and a couple of my friends singing along to this song, and a couple of others, from like, 1975 or 76. Early karaoke, I suppose. ;D

Let's Stay Together--Much prefer this version over Al's. Never was much of an Al Green fan.

Touch Me in the Morning--Pretty good, considering it's Diana.

Fresh--For a song with this title, it got really stale, really fast.

Big Fat Money--Never heard of it. I guess I only know the Van Hagar big hits.

In the Summertime--Another childhood favorite of mine. Absolutely love it.

Komm, Gib, etc--Don't know it.

What a Fool Believes--Don't mind hearing this once in awhile.

Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive--The title sounds familiar. Can't place how it goes.

Sunny--Never did like this much. I remember Cher singing it on one of her albums. Don't remember if it was spelled "Sonny" on the album or not. ;D

Shout--Can't stand this song. I do have fun memories of a group of us singing it at a party one drunk night at the top of our lungs over and over, though.

Mystery Man--Don't think I know it.

Used to Bad News--I'd probably know it if I heard it.

Go--Not bad. Listenable.

Sie Libet, etc.--Don't know it. German ain't my thing, I guess.

La Bamba--Way tired of it.

My Heart Can't Tell You No--It's all right. I used to like it pretty well, but these days if I hear it, I tend to tune it out.

Call Me--If it's not the Blondie song, then I don't know it. LOL!

Desire--Not big on U2, but I do happen to like this song a lot.

Can you send us all copies of the Seasons in the Sun tape??

Here is twenty more! Maybe I'll start posting 100 a day! - Geez - what are you trying to do to us?


6360. Let's Wait Awhile-Janet Jackson 1987
Can't wait long enough between times I have to hear this song............

6359. Seasons in the Sun-Terry Jacks 1974
I always hated this one - he's talking about dying and I really hated it when he got to the Michelle part because that's my middle name and for some reason it really bothered me.

6358. Let's Stay Together-Tina Turner 1984
I like her version, but this was around the time that she was starting to be forthcoming about splitting with Ike and it kind of didn't make sense.....

6357. Touch Me in the Morning-Diana Ross 1973


6356. Fresh-Kool & the Gang 1985
I was never really big on Kool (or the Gang) but this song was exceptionally lame.

6355. Big Fat Money-Van Halen 1995
I never listened to VanHagar unless it happened to come on the radio.

6354. In the Summertime-Mungo Jerry 1970
It would be like that Macarena cd that had one song done about 30 different ways.

6353. Komm, Gib Mir Deine Hand-Beatles 1964
You shot who in the what now? (probably no one but H2 will get that joke)

6352. What a Fool Believes-Doobie Brothers 1979
This one is tolerable.

6351. Dr. Heckyll & Mr. Jive-Men at Work 1983
This was on the Cargo album that my friend borrowed, never returned, then claimed it was hers not mine.

6350. Sunny-Bobby Hebb 1966
It's ok but kind of eh.

6349. Shout-Tears For Fears 1985
This song ROCKS!

6348. Mystery Man-Tom Petty 1977
I'm not familiar with this one.

6347. Used to Bad News-Boston 1978
The only one I really know is the obligatory More Than A Feeling.

6346. Go-Asia 1985/86
Love Asia.

6345. Sie Liebt Dich-Beatles 1964
See my previous obscure joke.

6344. La Bamba-Ritchie Valens 1958/59
It's not too bad, as foreign language songs go.

6343. My Heart Can't Tell You No-Rod Stewart 1988/89
No thanks. I can tell Rod no.........

6342. Call Me-The Storm 1991
Not familiar.

6341. Desire-U2 1988
This one is ok, but not the U2 sound that I grew to love.

You're right, I don't get the German language jokes!

Well, I don't know who'd want to hear me singing when I was 14 or 15 years old. LOL!

Actually, my friends and I taped ourselves singing several songs that day: Seasons in the Sun, Billy Don't Be A Hero, Operator, and Time in a Bottle. On the very last song, you can hear my friend's doorbell ringing in the background, and a lot of knocking. It's the bratty neighbor kid yelling at us to shut up. LMAO!

[55dodger]

Let's Wait Awhile - I like very little Janet Jackson did, including this.

Seasons in the Sun - Was ok the few times, but really got tired of it quickly.

Touch Me in the Morning - Good song.

Fresh - ?

Big Fat Money - ?

In the Summertime - Actually like this song.

Komm, Gib Mir Diene Hand - ?

What a Fool Believes - Another of the better late 70s Doobie Brothers.

Sunny - Another song I grew up with. Pretty good.

Shout - Ok song

Used to Bad News - Never liked it.

Go - ?

My Heart Can't Tell You No - ?

Call Me - This one by the Storm I don't know.

Mystery Man - Good song, but he's done a lot better
