Adam Lambert - For your entertainment
I didn't watch this series and I believe this guy didn't win but I saw picture of him and thought he didn't seem like a typical contestant! - kinda wish I'd watched it now
(song's not good though - not at all and I wanted to like it)

Bowling For Soup - Sorry For Partyin'
![[Image: n23228y35wt.jpg]](http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/drn200/n232/n23228y35wt.jpg)
Although I don't own anything by these guys, everytime a new album comes out, I hear something I really like on it. This one, their 7th, is no exception. Formed in Texas in 1994, the band keeps on pluggin' away. Although at times the juvenile humor, when done by middle aged men, wears thin pretty quick (maybe my age), the catchy hooks still pull me in.
I like this album.
Favorite Track - I Gotchoo
Waves hit rocks and folks get wet
I was gonna say something but now I forget
Chocolate covered cherries with the milk on the side
I'll meet you at the party if I find a ride
Helicopters fly and birds like to nest
Elvis or the Beatles who cares who's the best? (Beatles)
Raleigh is the capital of North Carolina
Peanut butter sandwich with some Aunt Jemima
And If you were me
You'd probably see
What I'm talking about
Talk is cheap but I can't afford it
And counting sheep don't work anymore
My head is turning circles but I got you, I got you
The coast is clear the view is distorted
Lots to do and I'm always bored
Nothing in my wallet but I got you, I got you
Credit or debit with your super market basket
Bring your own tote no paper no plastic
In the sun or the rain always bring an umbrella
Get a lollipop from the pretty bank teller
Go cart track with a '57 Chevy
I carry my weight but I'm getting kinda heavy
Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear, Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't fuzzy was he? (was he?)
And If you were me
You'd probably see
What I'm talking about
Talk is cheap but I can't afford it
And counting sheep don't work anymore
My head is turning circles but I got you, I got you
The coast is clear, the view is distorted
Lots to do and I'm always bored
Nothing in my wallet but I got you, I got you
Sometimes you've gotta run and put your foot on the pedal
Other times you've gotta stay and bring the metal
Doesn't matter to me, 'cause I've got you, IGOTCHOO!
Talk is cheap but I can't afford it
And counting sheep don't work anymore
My head is turning circles but I got you, I got you
The coast is clear the view is distorted
Lots to do and I'm always bored
Nothing in my wallet but I got you, I got you

Daryl Hall / John Oates - Ooh Yeah! - 1988

The much over used Philly soul tag is running rather thin for me by this point. Actually it expired about 3 albums deep. Although this album, their 13th, was a success, reaching #24, with the single of Everything Your Heart Desires peaking at #3, nothing really grabs me. My fav,tough between tracks 3 and 4. Had to go with the sax intro in 3, but the vocals in 4 are better. In fact the sax on this whole album is pretty cool. The album did reach platinum status, but no other singles could make a dent. It was still a low point in sales compared to previous efforts.
I do not like this album.
Favorite Track - I'm In Pieces
Why do I go all to pieces
When you breezin' by
My desire makes me shy oh
The words I wanna say to you
But baby I'm afraid to
Cause I've been a fool in love
Over and over again hey hey
You gotta know I'm in trouble
And I'm all undone
Got my heart in your hand, you understand?
I can't cool down the passion
Can't stop the reaction
So be careful with a fool in love
Who is over his head again hey hey
'Cause I'm in Pieces, I'm in Pieces
I'm in Pieces over you
Pieces, I can't help myself
No I can't hold out
Got to hold back my obsession
And I care too much
But it's hard-to pretend once again
Can't slow down every heartbeat
No catchin' up on lost sleep
Gone so far and I'm so deep over my head again hey hey
I'm in Pieces, I'm in Pieces
I'm in Pieces over you
Pieces, can't help myself
Ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
No I can't hold out
Guess I'll go to pieces now
Ah oh ooh, you shatter my pattern
You let me see daylite
I'm takin' up habits
Just to break 'em all over again hey, hey
Cause I'm in Pieces
I'm in Pieces, I'm in Pieces over you
Pieces
Can't help myself
I'm in Pieces over you
Hey
No I can't hold out baby
I'm breaking up girl
Pieces
Ooh, can't you see I'm in trouble deep
I've fallen before & I'm falling again
Pieces now
Its happening so fast you're turning my head
I'm in Pieces over you
Can't you see, I'm breaking up baby
I'm breaking up baby
No I can't hold out
I'm a fool in love won't be fool again
It's happening so fast baby you're turning my head
I'm in Pieces over you

A roller coaster for the Divine lady. Stage, film and music. Ups and downs in each one. This second album was a down from her debut and barely held up for me. Never one for original material, the choices here were all over the board. Barry Manilow had yet to go on his own and handled most of the production chores here, along with the keyboards. A cover of Dylan's I Shall Be Released just should not have happened. That's just wrong. Covering classics from the big band era works for me. No vid of my fav, the Johnny Mercer standard, Drinking Again.
Favorite Track - Drinking Again
Drinkin` again.
Thinking of when you loved me.
Having a few.
Wishing that you were here.
Making the rounds.
Buying a round for total strangers.
Just being a fool,
`cause I keep hoping, hoping, hoping you`ll appear.
Sure I can borrow a smoke.
I can sit here all night and tell these jokers some jokes,
but who wants to laugh, who`s gonna laugh
at a broken heart?
Oh, my heart is aching, I swear it`s breaking.
And I`m drinking again.
Thinking of when you loved me.
And I`m tryin` to get home
with nothing, nothing but a memory.
Yes, I`m dying to get home,
dying to get home.
And I got nothin` but a bottle of beer,
and just my memory.

Beach Boys - Greatest Hits Vol. 1 - 1999

How do you pack this much fun into this many 2 minute songs? And this is just Vol. 1. Too bad I don't own Vol. 2 yet. Only thing missing on here from that period that should be here is In My Room and Don't Worry Baby. Why would you leave those off of here Capitol? All these great 60's songs and you put Kokomo on here. I do have the vinyl stuff, but this is a cd. Beach Boys had the misfortune of the Beatles to compete with, and still managed to hold their own. How can those few simple lyrics of Surfer Girl sound so good? Thirty years later and those harmonies are still awesome.
Favorite Track - Surfer Girl
Little surfer little one
Made my heart come all undone
Do you love me, do you surfer girl
Surfer girl my little surfer girl
I have watched you on the shore
Standing by the oceans roar
Do you love me do you surfer girl
Surfer girl surfer girl
We could ride the surf together
While our love would grow
In my woody I would take you everywhere I go
So I say from me to you
I will make your dreams come true
Do you love me do you surfer girl
Surfer girl my little surfer girl
Well
Girl surfer girl my little surfer girl
Well
Girl surfer girl my little surfer girl
Well
Girl surfer girl my little surfer girl
