Then there's backwoods yokels like me. I was not allowed to listen to any radio (didn't get it way at the back of the canyon) as my folks were, I don't know, hippys, Minnonites...so when we finally got cable back there, I was stunned. I think the first "song" I ever learned was a story about a man named Brady! Of course, back then, the commercials did not use a whole lot of popular songs. It was more "My Dogs Better Than Your Dog" fare. I finally ripped free of the Canyon walls and discovered a world of music. i went to evry concert I could get tickets to. Loved it. So, when I hear "I want To Break Free" for soda, it makes me feel kinda old! In fact, my 14 year old is saying "OOH! I love that song! Who sings that? She buys all of Queens stuff at Virgin next day. That I don't mind. Just makes me feel old. Or how 'bout when she hears a song I'm playing on the old Victrola and says "Cool! That song's from Moulin Rouge!" Cringe! No no, I tell her, bad girl! The song came first, then the "movie". Old again.
