That song was a blight on all things good and decent and I did a happy little dance when I realized that OMC had gone pfft. A VERY happy little dance.

Last time I checked Billy Joel was more than a one hit wonder. In fact, during the MC Hammer time, Billy Joel had a huge MTV, VH1, and radio hit with "We Didn't Start The Fire"
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

well considering i was in grade 6 when both songs came out they were pretty good, my tastes have kinda changed over the last 6 years though but the last time i remember thinking about those 2 songs was like at least 6 years ago and I liked them, so I guess They're only as good as your last impression
