Hi Jennifer.  I just saw you message to the net and I had to reply. Other than
the Comp. Sci major, I think I've just "met" someone who shares every passion
in my wretched existance <grin>.  A class-one, A+ grad student from the
Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, a HIGHLY addicted
Toonster, an absolute believer in that which is good and right in society
and certified Dementoid at your service, ma'am.

What I loved about Johhn Dangerously, by the way, was of all things the
film's trailer.  <takes place in the projection room of `a theatre near you.'>
Since this is what I do for a living (ain't paid a penny top see a film other
than Rocky Horror in 10 years!), it hit home in a big way.  I envy your being
able to get the Good Doc out that-a-way on the Left Coast (BTW, I confess my
poor knowledge of Californian geography, but are you anywhere near Rio
Linda???  Could it be _that_ bad???)).  We've not had him in Toronto for
about 3 years now and the Smogberry withdrawl symptoms are killing me :-)

Anyway, enough of my rambling here.  Hope this brings a beacon of sunshine
into your day from the Glorious Workers Paradise of the Peoples Democratic
Republic Of Ontario (Don't laugh!  We actually ELECTED a socialist gov't
here!!! ARRRRGGGHHHHHHH!)

Little corrections.  'Der Kommissar' was by Falco (this unfortunately
eliminates two from your list).  I don't think including recent hits of new
or active artists is appropriate since they could easily remove themselves
from your list with a single hit.

It's a "Black" thang!

"Wonderful life" of 1987. Wasn't the video wonderful? I still recall the

to calm me down after a long, hard day. It relaxes.

I'm not entirely certain; was his "Get out of my Dreams/Get into My Car"
high enough on the chart to knock this off?

No. He was right.
I remember a band called After The Fire did "Der Kommissar". 
Falco only had "Rock Me Amadeus".

What are the requirements?  If making the Top 40 in Billboard (most folk's  
standard) is, then the Tubes have several, including "Monkey time" and "Don't

That's because McLean Wasn't a "One-Hit Wonder", although AP was
his biggest hit.  He also had "Vincent", and "Crying", which are
played frequently on oldies stations, and quite a few albums.

I'm later on it than you are, but just wanted to say you were right -
it was written by B. Dylan-Zimmerman. I had the same record.

Since I'm late to the thread, did anyone mention "Billy, Don't be a Hero"

    Greetings fellow Dementioids!

        This is THE LOCKER GNOME talking to you from the University of Northern
    Iowa!  This is my first post in this group, and seeing that I love to
    listen to music with a parodic/humorus twist to it, I feel that this group
    will be very beneficial to my knowledge accumulation of weird shit.
        I will start out my first post with a question:

          Is there any way you can get the single "WAFFLE KING,"
          a b-side track unavailable on the OFF THE DEEP END C.D.,
          by my mentor, "Weird Al" Yancovic, on a C.D. (as opposed
          to the cassette release of it.)  I know that radio stations
          got it, but where could I get a hold of one?  Also, are there
          any other b-sides which Al has previously released?

    That should keep you busy for a while.  Right now I got the feeling like I
    got broken glass in my underwear, and a herd of wild pigs is tryin' to chew
    off my head (ya know what I'm sayin'?)

                                Never the same,

It's called "They Don't Know".  It made the top 100 for the year in 1984.

It goes something like this...

I almost forgot this, but it is now in that computer generated Listerine
commercial:
Tarzan Boy by Baltimora.

I actually kind of liked that song when it came out.

Oh yeah, and
"Jane's getting serious," by John Astley (?) whose actually more of a producer.
