It's Raining Men

It would be far too easy to add several additional songs to this very important list, but I'll refrain.  Reluctantly.  Mainly because it would mean looking up their specific titles, plus the subsequent firestorm of indie outrage.  Still... a very tempting notion.  Anyway, read this list as quickly as possible (or at least before your next wedding reception) and at least remember this:

Psychologist Dr. Todd Snider [] recommends that if any of the[] songs [listed] start playing, "Turn them off immediately, leave the room, and start listening to any music by Ted Nugent, Ozzy Osbourne, Van Halen or Frank Sinatra.  If it's too late, check into the nearest hospital emergency room as soon as possible." 

Update!  Just go ahead and listen, there are apparently bigger, more nefarious, and much less avoidable plans afoot.

Funny, no mention of Sarah McLaughlin (sp.?) or any Lilith Fair artists.

We should check Snider's credentials: any educated man using the phrase "turn you gay" is kind of suspect.

If I catch your drift Bonka, then who better than Dr. Snider to determine what's going to turn you gay?

And I don't think Sarah or Lilith Fair turns you gay per se, it's pretty much a given that if you're into either you're already gayer than the gayest gay thing ever -- no "turning" necessary. If you're a male, that is. Not that there is anything wrong with that. At all.

You know what really spooked me is that in the picture associated with the linked article there is a dude who looks just like my little brother.

Freaked me out.
