  • Progressive rock and art rock are two almost interchangeable terms describing a mostly British attempt to elevate rock music to new levels of artistic credibility.

Irregardless (heh!), listening to it won't get you laid. Except for the occasional King Crimson disc.
Apropos of this, I originally read that phrase as "a mostly British attempt to elevate rock music to new levels of artistic celibacy."

As opposed to this sock which seems to have drifted away from its original purpose (which was never well executed but I digress). You are the classic case of shitty-sock-of-shittier-primary-who-cant-get-a-laugh-as-a-oprimary-but -is-too-lazy-to-logout.

Oh dear, I didn't realize you hung out with the Anne Murray wedding song set. Sorry, no offense.

I sure did. But the Nicki French redo of it rocks. It's got a beat. I can dance to it. I'd give it a 9.

You tell him, sister!

Actually, paigow, I assumed that everyone knew that that sock was me. You and gwnc informed me that I was wrong.

My original purpose? I was bored. I liked the picture, and since my FB persona is id-less, I figured that the sock would be amusing. Guess not.

Oh jesus, notbob. I am really sorry. I feel terrible. Sort of like I pushed an old lady over and she broke her hip.

Meatlof's longtime songwriting partner, Jim Steinman, wrote both of Bonnie Tyler's cheesy hits, "Total Eclipse of the Heart" and "Holding Out for a Hero." (He had nothing to do with her only other hit, "It's a Heartache," which explains why it isn't nearly as objectionable.)

Steinman is responsible for the bulk of the windily-titled, overly-arranged mini-epics like "Paradise By the Dashboard Light" and "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad" on "Bat Out of Hell," along with numerous other musical atrocities. When in doubt as to whether Jim Steniman wrote a given song, try this checklist:

1. Are there more than 4 words in the title?
2. Is it more than 5 minutes long?
3. Does it have a string section and a choir of female voices in the accompaniment?
4. Does it have both a bombastic chorus and a quiet bit where the signer is backed only by a delicate piano line?

Dude, and I'm only saying this as a friend, just get a sports car/cigarette boat/young mistress like everybody else. The big 45 is no big deal.

Well put. There is a special place in hell for Jim Steinman.

Wasnt Jim Steinman a part of one of the seventies' finest offernigs, Bad Company?

Shooting Star is a classic.
