Everything cultural, pop or otherwise. Books, movies, music, comics, poetry, random cultural geekery.

It's the falsetto voice you have to use when signing those songs.

I don't know how they did it, I've tried to imitate that falsetto singing and I can't even get through the chorus. My ex used to joke they had to be kicked in the balls before they sang 'Stayin' Alive'" to be able to sing like that.

Didn't Kim post about these guys once?

Guilty pleasures:

1 - Cyndi Lauper (original She Bop version and her new torch singer persona)
2 - The Monkees - all the way through Justus, which I LOVED
3 - with all the Rick Rolls lately, I find myself liking the little two-hit wonder.
4 - my favorite rap artists - Black Eyed Peas, Outkast, and of course, the classics, NWA and Public Enemy among a few others.

YES. The best band not in the RRHoF. Recording and touring since forever. The basis for all prog bands.

I don't understand how I [strike]hate[/strike] don't much like country music, but own multiple Hoyt Axton albums. Must be Hoyt wasn't a country singer, right?

Blues. Muddy, Howlin', Son House, all the greats. It's the only stuff on my mp3 player now.

Genesis (with Peter and Steve).

And whatever I happen to sing along with in the grocery store...it's true, getting old is not for sissies.

Strange but true :-

Rick Wakeman of Yes is a life long conservative who left the band because he got tired of the other members hippy dippy new age attitudes

A lifelong UK conservative. In the US, they'd likely be considered RINOs. :mrgreen:
