"And it’s not just because she’s 17."

Spoiler: he wasn't acting.

Upvoted for calling various characters by the names of the books they came from. I always love that bit.

I can see her dirty pillows!

"Are you speaking to me?"
"No. My son is also named Yogurt Baron Ferretti."

Stephane Moraille. She ran for the NDP a few years back and lost.

Didn't it become a one-hit wonder in real life, though?

Here in Canada, we have a lot of music that gets played due to Canadian-content regulations on our broadcasters, but never makes it through to the States. I always assumed Nick Gilder was the definitive Can-con-only artist. It blew my mind when I recently discovered that "Hot Child in the City" hit #1 in the States.

How are things in Zimbabwe?

I love that Barry McGuire's vocal performance was supposed to just be a sample track, but then they used it.

I never knew Thomas Dolby's middle name! Thanks, Panda Puffs!

I'm Archie Bell and I'm also The Drells! This is the music you tighten up with!

I was just asking about this on another thread. I had thought it was all the same group, but with different names for some inexplicable reason. So it was just the same guy bouncing from band to band?

Hey, are you American? Was that a hit in the States? I tend to think of it as a Canada-only song (the female singer recently ran for Parliament!)

You know what I don't understand? The band you call "Edison Lighthouse" had a handful of hits, all under different names. I don't know why they didn't want to get the snowball effect of, say, keeping the same name for more than one song—-why being five one-hit wonders was more desirable than being one five-hit wonder.

You know who it must suck to be? Brian Melo and Jaydee Bixby, behind whom she came third on Canadian Idol in 2007. I mean, we voted and everything, but now this lady Canada likes less than these two guys is singing the "Fuller House" theme. It's downright undemocratic.

Again, geography. They had a handful of hits in Canada, and I'm willing to believe they had more in the UK. They probably only had one, if that, in the States.

In America (and Canada), definitely. Like Blur when Song 2 hit, Canadians were kind of made aware that this was a major British band and that we should have heard of them, but other than the press acting like they'd had a career outside of their one hit, we only ever really heard the one song from them. To this day,

Hey, Sam Smith won't back down. He knows what's right. He's got just one life.
