David Hasselhoff’s “True Survivor” Video! He’s back!
The Hoff is back! He is a National Treasure but unfortunately not in America for some strange reason. He is loved everywhere else in the world so congrats to him! He even rescued sponge bob! The video is a throw back to everything that was cool about the 80’s! Cool cars, cheesy graphics and over the top acting!

Jimmy Fallon, Madonna & The Roots Sing “Holiday”
I like this far better than I like the original. Props to Madonna for reinventing herself again! I never liked the glamorous look she had back in the 80’s but this look is better for someone that’s 56!. But hey, Madonna, you got the bucks, fix those teeth! OUCH! You could shred a poor guy!

Twisted Sister’s “Love is for Suckers”!
Dee Snider had a way with words didn’t he? Not only borrowing the Dr. Pepper melody for the end of this great song but the talking part in the middle is “Guy Typical” isn’t it??? Visual smiles run the vertical miles 🙂 It’s hard to believe they didn’t make a video for this song…
Listen, well, well, well, if it isn’t little miss perfect
And to what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?
You want to get back together? You do, huh?
Well, listen honey, I’m just not interested
You’ll what? You will? With your heels on?
Oh no, come on, babe, let’s go
Here I go again

Jan. 28, 1986…Where were you when…?
The space shuttle Challenger blew up?
I was 20 and working at G&G Generators… The Secretary ran out of her office saying “It blew up!” “It just blew up!”. We went into the office and watched the news…Shortly after Commander Scobee said “We are go for throttle up” one of the shuttle’s rocket boosters’ malfunctioned and the shuttle was destroyed as school children everywhere watched in horror. It was a sad day for all citizens of Earth. We lost a wonderful crew, a school teacher and the innocence of the Space Program.
As the weeks went on it was hinted to/revealed that some, if not all of the crew lived until the crew cabin hit the water some 2 plus minutes after the the Space Shuttle Challenger disintegrated.
Our then President Ronald Reagan spoke such elegant words that night as he addressed our Nation and the World.
“We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved goodbye and ‘slipped the surly bonds of Earth’ to ‘touch the face of God.”
So, where were you?

Culture Club’s new single “More than Silence”
Boy George’s vocals have aged like a fine wine. The songs are far deeper and more meaningful than the stuff released back in the day…
