1. 1 minute 7 seconds in...

and I am looking around for a knife to stick in the side of my skull :)

[Glorfindel]

2. Thank you! I may be the only one, but I've always loved that song

:hi:

[MrScorpio]

3. That makes two of us

[qnr]

6. Yeah, I'm one of the few that kind of like it too. Same with Ishtar, I think it's

a great movie.

[applegrove]

4. Are you trying to turn it into a new 'rickroll'?

[LeftyFingerPop]

5. I seriously dig this song.

[SwampG8r]

7. love it and hate it

the tune is so well crafted and the words so so dumb
but if you take the words without the music its a poem about love with a lot heart
2 great tastes that dont taste great together
but they kind of do
man
i am really conflicted about this song
never realized it before

[Art_from_Ark]

8. Number 3 on my charts in 1968

Being a kid in Arkansas when the song came out, I always thought he was singing about MacArthur Park in Little Rock. I wanted to go down there and see the cake for myself! :rofl:

9. So long as it isn't that god awful Donna Summer version

Fine by me. I like the instrumental break.

10. Jurassic Park is frightening in the dark.

:)

11. Think about it - it must hae been a really shitty cake recipe

I mean not only did the person toss away the recipe after baking it but then put the damn cake outside where it was rained-on.

I mean if the cake was any good this would have NOT happened.

I'm just saying!

[Tuesday Afternoon]

12. I think it is beautiful and sad

and metaphorical and I love this version. Thanks.
