hiway29 Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I finally googled this one out of curiosity, so my 'guess' doesn't count. I know the chorus well, but wouldn't have gotten it by the verse lines. It did make me go 'oh yeah=I should have known it', though. A lot of old pop top 40 hits are awful, but some pretty good and even great songs got through at times. This is a pretty good one.
