Sorry to kick a dead horse in which noöne else seems interested, but that "She's So Mean" and "Tayter Country" also are very similar in the verses, not as much, but _very_ close for some lines, a couple of lines ending in 'tion's in both.

Avatar Pseu's Thing with A Hook Marathon 2024 Swag For Life Member 12:43pm
Mike Sin:

One point about that Go-Go's doc (Pseu, feel free to delete this post if it's way too long or inappropriate):

I tried to be as diplomatic as possible as an all-female band playing the incredibly lucrative rock-industry game of the early 1980s must have been downright demoralizing in many aspects, but… the songwriting disputes? Even as a drummer who has never written a song that appeared on a commercial album, I’ve got to side with the songwriters here. Of course, the songwriters are going to see a lot more cash if those tracks sell in the millions, and why should they not?

If your songs are being marginalized and kept out of the recording sessions, that's one aspect, but… if you’re not writing songs at all, how are you suddenly justified demanding a piece just because the song is now successful?

If a songwriter spent months translating, say, a very personal experience into words and chords and ultimately created a catchy song, and then, say, the drummer suggested a tempo change, placed a very cool and/or dramatic fill between the second chorus and the bridge, or went into a jazzier feel during the ride out, these additions do not mean the drummer wrote part of the song. The drummer just did his or her job as an instrumentalist. He or she did not help “write” the song.

If Jane Wiedlin’s account was indeed true, then her abrupt decision to split the band was understandable, IMHO, of course.

I'm autistic enough, and of the right sort—sadism inflicted on me every time I left my house as child may help—that being shut-in hasn't bothered me a bit, but not so autistic that I can't sympathise.

My wife of thirty or forty years (depending on how you count it) is here, she's really all the humanity I need to be around, and we still get-along very well.

But, very honestly, the only thing that's bothered me is that I've maintained not-being-grossly-obese by being very picky about food, and having other people shop for me is routinely frustrating, little things like ordering beef ribs and someone's deciding that pork ribs are the same. (Even before the plague my medical person was afraid I'd end-up in hospital with pneumonia, so I'm behaving halfway to immune-compromised, so not doing my own shopping has seemed sanest.)

What are the bounds of central NJ? I'd say it's bounded on the north by the Raritan River extended straight west past where it turns north, and on the south by a line going straight east from the bend in the Delaware south of Trenton.

Since Lambertville is almost exactly halfway between the northern and southern limits I just established, it's definitely central NJ, unless New Hope annexes it.

on the maps it looks like Ocean County is the hotly debated one. but when it comes to the shore points the line is def at Barnegat Inlet! (L.B.I. vs. Island Beach State Park

@Listener Robert I feel that Monmouth County and points straight west is Central NJ. In my mind Ocean County is South Jersey, Middlesex County is North Jersey

I've always lived adjacent to NJ. Grew up in Delaware, live in NYC.

Maybe the Phillies/Yankees line on the NY Times baseball fan map can help us point to South Jersey?

I grew up (arguable) in Louisiana. North and south LA are as different in accent and culture as is possible without a body of water or mountain range to isolate and separate. Same in Jersey?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:47pm
ratso:

Mike Sin, definitely the most widely-accepted and easily delineated definition. It's either this or defining by county. Everyone in Somerset and Hunterdon wants to be central, even if we're over the 78 border
  2:47pm
Listener Robert:

Gregg, if you eliminate ALL of Middlesex Co., not just what's north of the Raritan, you've squeezed Central NJ uncomfortably small.

But the eastern part of I-78 goes too far north to consider it a boundary between central and north Jersey. Elizabeth, Central Jersey? Come on.

There's a mistake in the playlist. Secret Powers recorded the song Tangerine, not the other way around.
  9:28am
Dr Playlist:

There's another mistake on the playlist; you played the song White Lie Castle by Tan Sleeve, not Geri Mandering.
  9:34am
Dr Playlist:

It is true that, on Youtube, the song you played is labelled as Geri Mandering, but it's a mistake. The songs are named correctly on Tan Sleeve's Bandcamp page.
