Top Song

VH-1 (MTV for those of us who've outgrown "Real World) just played the series "Top 100 songs of the 80's" What a flash from the past!!! Wham (who knew that Andrew was straight, and George was the gay one???), U2, the Go-Go's, Ratt, Whitesnake!!! They had them all! And who, you ask, recorded the number one song of the 1980's? I thought for sure it would be Michael Jackson's Thriller. But WAIT!!!! NO!! It isn't Wacko-Jacko!!!

It was my beloved Bon Jovi and their anthem: Livin' on a Prayer.

Now, as someone who remembers when this orginally hit, I can vouch for the pure greatness of this song. Few can match it. Few can belt out that high note. But we all become just a little bit of a rocker when we hear it.

*SIGH*
