You know, those of us who love bad '80s music have no room to complain about anything, really, but you know your grammar obsession has gone too far when it really gets on your nerves that the chorus to "Hungry Eyes" is "I feel the magic between you and I," which is not only WRONG WRONG WRONG, but doesn't even rhyme with "eyes" anyway.
::laugh:: I have to admit that I have a soft spot for bad 80's music. But your comment reminded me of something a member of the cast of True West that I was an assistant director of pointed out.
Whitney Houston's I Wanna Dance With Somebody has the wonkiest/crappiest lyrics.
Dontcha wanna dance Say you wanna dance Dontcha wanna dance Dontcha wanna dance Say you wanna dance Dontcha wanna dance Dontcha wanna dance Say you wanna dance (uh huh) With somebody who loves me
