I could never have expected you. I still don’t entirely know what’s happening, but I know that more often than not, I’m happier because of the very fact of you. Wow, I think my hope is back, in a real way. Carly Rae’s method works, folks. It just does. —Out-of-Towner

  3. OP … did you not see the video?!? In the end … the dude likes dudes … not lil’ miss Carly Rae.

    Tron, you aren’t missing much. Were it not for my children, this is not knowledge that I would otherwise possess.

  5. no brend… it’s a trap.
    trust me… you will NOT like it.
    I’m guessing the violet flamed vixen thought Friday was a lyrical masterpiece…

    I also haven’t even really found any on apocalyptic love to stand out as ‘hit singles’…
    a little disappointing… but I had to listen to death magnetic for a while before realizing how good it actually was. Hoping my ears come ’round soon.

  6. I like “violet flamed vixen”. But, no… I did not like that Friday song. I’m telling you, give “Call me Maybe” a chance and you will love it!!
