OK, things used to be, I'd play little games on Fridays. Match game. Random music quizzes. They were nice ways to kill some time whilst counting down for the weekend...
Today? Inspired by that
Ford Focus/Sync System commercial, we'll do the "Play artist" game. Well, it's not really a game; I just made it up. Here's how it'll go... you name a band or artist, and I will, however grudgingly, name at least song I have by that band or artist. And if I don't have anything by that band/artist, then you owe me a dollar. Sound fun? No? Well, it's all I could think of. Really, if anyone plays along, I'll consider it a minor miracle.
So, go ahead. Do your best to try to embarass me. I'm not scared of your calls for Michael Bolton or Color Me Badd songs!
And yes, I'm kidding about the dollar.
And please, feel free to play along, too. Hell, I'll even start. Ready?
Play artist... Hall & Oates.

Like a thief in the night who can't get enough, I am willing to fight, 'cause I'm a Soldier of Love. Like a shot in the dark when the going gets rough, it's a state of the heart when you're a Soldier of Love.

OK. Making sure to separate Wham! UK from George, the solo artist...
All we have to do (now) is take these lies and make them true (somehow). All we have to see is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me. Yeah yeah!
