8. I'm surprised some Viagra huckster hasn't tried to use that...
...on their ads. It still amazes me that Elvis' estate allowed "Viva Las Vegas" to be turned into "Viva Viagra."

3. What is the appeal of a man who can sing 3 octaves higher than most women?
Never understood that.

13. I love that song!
It drives my husband INSANE, but I LIVE for "Disco Saturday Night" at one of the local radio stations. I turn it up and sing along!

15. not even close
I love the Bee Gees, and while "Tragedy" is far from my fav... there are still plenty of songs that are more irritating

20. There's another one by them (at least I'm pretty sure it's them -
who the hell else could it be????) that I find even more annoying, but I have no idea what it's called. They play it on the satellite station at work almost every other day, and it drives me insane.
I can't even catch any of the words, it's so falsetto-y and annoying and I HATE HATE HATE it.
