Hi guys.
I didn't know MTV did stuff like that. I thought they were just Music Television.

they had MTV news for a while, now it seems to me that they're way way from being Music Television!

I thought they were just music television too...
Oh wow! My Jesse phase has come back again! I think so at least because I keep melting when looking at pics of him even more than when I look at his dad! And it's even more obsessive than before! I photoshopped an image of him to have purple flowers and stuff and put it as my desktop background! And, well, those of you who remember my Jesse phase, it was quite obsessive...

it happens to everyone. it likely got brought up again because of excitement over Bon Jovi's new album.



tid-bits!

1971
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band hits #9 with "Mr. Bojangles".

1973
Photograph (Ringo Starr) was a hit.

1978
Foreigner hits #2 with "Double Vision".

1979
No More Tears (Enough Is Enough) (Barbra Streisand/Donna Summer) was a hit.



i've heard of all the people, but none of the songs... okay i may know "mr bojangles" but i'm not sure.

oh! i just remembered i was looking for ringtones for my phone the other day and was looking up TV thems and Alvin and the Chipmonks singing "living on a prayr" and "faithfully" are options for ringtones! i was like... okay... although the bonjovi i was able to understand, it was hard to understand them singing journey though.


oh and talking about journey, i soooo want their Revelation CD, even if it came out last year, i'm just behind in realizeing it seems pretty good with their new singer who does sound alot like Steve Perry!


oh, anyone else hear that Joe Perry from Aerosimith says that Steven Tyler is taking a break from the band? I saw it on the bottom of the news many weeks ago, saw at least one little artical online somewhere and today someone at work mentioned it... so i was just wondering if anyone here knows anything about this...
