Anyone who doesn't have this cracker of a record in their 'Top 20 All-time Greatest Singles' loses points with me. Did you know, A.M., that soon after its release it was banned by the B.B.C. when one disc jockey pointed out the suggestiveness of its lyrics? (Well, more downright 'full-on' rather than 'suggestive'.) Needless to say that action not only guaranteed it a very long stay at Number One but it remained in our singles charts for precisely 52 weeks. And it's STILL a blast! In fact it's timeless!
This song reminds me of my times in Dallas in 80’s. I was living a great life. But it all came to end. I have this song on my iPod. I love it when it pops on while I’m working out. It brings me back to one of the happiest times in my life.
This is one of those songs that seems to have been around forever and yet, now, whenever I hear it I think of Zoolander...have to go kill the claymation dude...
