Id guess most people would pick some early Beatles song like "She Loves You" I like "Take On Me" and "Don't Forget About Me" |

I can't really answer this question. There are so many great pop songs. This one is pretty perfect. Especially for a guy who grew up when and where I did. This could be my life when I was 13-17 years old. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aeETEo ... iw&index=6 |

WLS used to do a Top 100 of the year countdown to New Years on December 31st. Back in 1979 we had another family over with their kids to celebrate NYE, and everyone was listening to the countdown, and we all guessed what was #1. I was the only winner, my giant claim to fame, and connection to My Sharona.... little did I know how well that knowledge would pay off in 2020!!! I AM A GOLDEN COD. I, MEAN, GOD! |

I guess I kind of define it as catchy music that was real popular on the radio Some other of my favorites Bobby Brown: Every Little Step The Clash: Train in Vain The Hives: Hate To Say I Told You So |
