Ok, so I'm getting older. I'm okay with that because I like a lot of today's stuff as well as music from when I was a kid. I remember precisely what I was doing the first time I heard "Venus." I was cruising in my '57 Chevy in Kalamazoo MI, in the area of WSU. I sat in that Chevy, AM radio cranked and was completely and totally knocked out. It was unlike anything else I'd heard. And when I saw the band, I was hooked. The guys were cool and Mariska? Ahhhh ... she was most definitely a goddess,

Phildirt3, You ... ( 1 month ago by maxielane)

Phildirt3, You should see the doctor to check your ears. There's someone playing keyboards, probably a Rhodes e-piano. You can hear it most clearly at the break between verse and refrain. But the keyboard player can't be seen. He had played his part at the studio and on the video the band does playback.

Ya got a problem with the Norse nose? Mine is a ski-nose, and the chicks dig it--plus i have played lead guitar since 1968-and still have my hair-bet ya don't!

Well, you lose. Don't get so 'Nord' about the nose, I am mixed blood and mine is even bigger and I am proud about it! I never meant she had a bad nose, you know, and yet you can't deny it's huge. Living this day, this girl would've probably remade her nose, which would've been indeed a pity.

When I was 10 years ... ( 1 week ago by icegirl152)

When I was 10 years old, I thought the lyrics were "I'm your penis, I'm your sire, at your desire." I imagined a man standing at the toilet, holding his manhood. It had a king's crown on it, and it was singing to him. Weird thoughts for a 10 year old? I didn't realize what the song really said until Banarama re-did it. Sad, but true.
