Maybe, but would a streamed version of that album kill you? Make you miserable, sure; perhaps even lose some friends. But it wouldn't kill.Kory wrote: ↑15 Sep 2020, 5:22pmThat's just cosmic justice for liking U2.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑15 Sep 2020, 5:12pmGrossly untrue.

Maybe Ratty's actually in a killvan and that's where he's been all these months. Just going town to town, slaying those who need slaying.

My parents have a pool in their backyard and it is a frequent summer hangout for my sisters and I and our families and good ole' American AOR is often the soundtrack. We didn't grow up as fans of this music, but for some reason it's a good soundtrack to summer.revbob wrote: ↑16 Sep 2020, 9:20amInside AOR, the most under-appreciated sub-genre of all time

When I was about 22 I went to a bar where a buddy of mine was tending at happy hour. He had just bought a cheap Foreigner best of and I realized I somehow knew all ten songs on it despite never actually being a fan or even really liking them. But none of them were hateful. Just sort of there.
I do genuinely like Boston’s debut album because it’s basically a perfectly evolved shark of 70s arena rock.
