Jeepers.

You are being too harsh on yourself for an easily correctable issue.

I don't know why, but I always confused these two songs when I was a kid. Black Betty is like BTO on meth, and Ballroom Blitz sounds like a discarded tune from Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Both songs were "one and done"...you didn't have "Black Betty" or "Ballroom Blitz" copycat songs hitting the radio waves...no one knew what to make of them, so they let them have their time in the sun, and then moved on to other things. Like msadows CCS posting career.

It's weird that I'm younger than you and haven't heard any of your music from 1990s-2010s.

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

The most perfectly constructed rock song of all time is "Under Pressure" by Queen.

It's a shame they had to rip off Vanilla Ice tho.

Pretty much anything by Huey Lewis

Pretty much anything by Huey Lewis

It worked once, I'm gonna push it:

Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.

I’m not which song it is, but I bet it’s on a Hootie and the Blowfish album.

Great buildup to an awesome payoff - Jared Leto's death.
