Former #1 song


A short story. I was doing some radio and Me and Mrs. Jones broke and everyone in the station's studio looked at each other at the same time, and one young woman engineer said what we were all thinking: 'how much blow did that AR promoter hand over to get that song played'.

I came to like it, but that was repitition.

Good memory on that one - and it really is a pretty good tune :D

You've forgotten Ralph Tresvant (jr.). The group that kick started the boy band craze. Later they added Johnny Gill. I know at least some of them wish they could recapture this innocence. Gone forever.

One more. Alex Dezen is former front man and main writer for The Damnwells ("Kiss Catastrophe," "Golden Days"). This is off his first solo album...."to all the mothers who bought me nice sweaters."

Nope, didn't forget. That is a direct lyric. No Ralphie. That's because Ralph was the singer.
