this reminds me of the guy i knew in college who used to come back from his runs, and put "Eye of the Tiger" on his stereo...this got him all psyched to do his post-run situps.

well, we all got sick of it and one day popped open the circuit break panel to shut him off.

man, his was pissed...something about ruining the cartridge on his turntable or somethin'

where is Gary Glitter?

I find the term "rock" and R. Kelly to be mutually exclusive.

Gary Glitter is a must have, who wrote this list?

It's no longer possible for me to listen to R. Kelly's song without thinking of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog:

I believe they set up an innocent guy.
You know what Kel? I believe I can fly

I guess I could use definition of stadium rock. Like Gary glitter and Queen would be the leaders (Who let the dogs out?) in the sporting catagory.

Then in the art catagory based on live performance in stadium situations, say the Stones, Dead, Metallica, etc. would be leaders.

Give me some ideas, a zillion great choices could come out of this one.

Where's Blur's Song No. 2 or whatever it is called - Woo Hoo!
Born to be Wild should be on there - Gary Glitter? He is in a Vietnamese jail for shagging 12-years-olds. Pull a Tookie on him.
