I actually reviewed the album that's from at The Magazine Formerly Known as Stereo Review when it first came out, and if memory serves I loved it, especially "I'm Sorry." Nevertheless, I seem to have lost my copy, and until I chanced across the above on FB the other day, I had totally forgotten that the song had ever existed, let alone that it was such a pitch-perfect skewering of 80s hair band machismo.
Inspirational verse:
I'm sorry
So sorry
I can't rock you all night long
It's an interesting idea, baby
But it would be wrong
Lord knows, we've all known the feeling as we age, but it's rarely been expressed so eloquently.
This was a great album by a great band, and Michael Hall went on to other great music as a solo artist and with others.

You featured the song at least once on “Lost at Sea” during one of your appearances on the show. I took the song as a warning of impending doom that of course has come true.
ReplyDeleteThanks for ruining my day.

Great song. Nice way to start the week.
ReplyDeleteso maybe they really aren't as 'wild' seeds as they claim to be.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, that may have been central to my point. 😎
