that rhianna song about diamonds is so undeniably and depressingly shitty that the only redeeming quality it has is its brazenness.

The only good quality I thought it had was the line, "Without love in a hopeless place," which I thought was badass, totally despairing for a pop song, miserable. And then I found out she was saying, "We found love in a hopeless place." And then it had no good qualities at all.

I wouldn't be able to identify a Rihanna song if you paid me.

Haha... you thought you'd stumbled across "they gotta name for the winners in the world..." and all you got was "you've lost that lovin' feelin'".

I always considered Madonna's 'Live to tell' a good companion piecs to time after time myself. Hell True Blue is an amazing album on its own.

I'd never heard this song before. It's good
It's odd how one gets these gaps in their personal music encyclopedia

I'm pretty sure you made that comment on the memory of the songs...
I thought the same thing, then I listened to both.
All through the night will make you fucking weep.
She-Bop still rules all, though.

I think Jani was the wrong guy to ask.
People always get down on nblack athletes for blowing all their money before they're even out of sports... but for every Vince Young, there's a Steven Adler. Which is worse?

I saw Lita strut her pussy around the stage at one of our free concert series a couple years back... I think the bill was Sass Jordan opening for Lita Ford.
She's married to that weird dork you use to see in those guitar mags teaching how to shatter glass with singin' Jim Gillette. He was in her band sorta... came out and walked around. Didn't sing high, but looks like he is a steroid riddled pro wrassler now..
