“19” takes me by surprise. Suddenly, it’s the ’80s and I’m following my mom around a K-Mart in Rhode Island hearing this song and wondering when “Money for Nothing” will cycle through again. I guess that’s kind of how it goes when you dump every CD onto your ipod. I didn’t even know I had it. I wonder what else lurks among the bytes.
And for a music history bonus via Wikipedia, on this day in…
