![]() Saturday, December 10, 2005Yes, I've been listening to XM on DirecTV
Rupert Holmes's "Escape (The Pina Colada Song)" has a bunch of fads of the late 1970s packed into it: yoga, personal ads, making love at midnight in the dunes off the cape, even health food. But who would have thought that, in 2005, the only thing in the song that's become obsolete is the simile in the first stanza? "I was tired of my lady/We'd been together too long/Like a worn-out recording/Of a favorite song." Go ahead -- try to wear out an MP3!

How totally outdated!
Everybody knows the hip kids of the '00's are "Making Love at the Marriott Off Of I-65."
Well, I tried to wear out my MP3 of "Feels So Good" (as per your instructions), and I wound up burning out my hard disk's motor and losing all my friends. Thanks Jim.
