The Kaleb Horton Deceased Latvian Foreign Minister Thread, 2022 Edition
Ronnie Spector
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

2022 rolling hard. Saget, Portier, now Ronnie.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Ronnie Spector had a lot of great songs, but what about her brief comeback with the Money Man?

In general, I strongly agree. I enjoyed hearing Take Me Home Tonight again just now tho – thanks Westway. Late summer of being 14 years old I guess. Haven’t heard that song in several decades. And now I’m good for a couple decades more without hearing it.revbob wrote: ↑12 Jan 2022, 7:09pmEddie Money's music is just so horrible.WestwayKid wrote: ↑12 Jan 2022, 7:02pmRonnie Spector had a lot of great songs, but what about her brief comeback with the Money Man?

It's also a song that always takes me back (I hear it at the grocery store a lot). Crazy to think about how big Eddie Money was for a brief period.Kimmelweck wrote: ↑12 Jan 2022, 7:29pmIn general, I strongly agree.

Ronnie used to play in rock clubs in NYC back in the 90's, I saw her with Joey Ramone doing a Christmas show. It was pretty magical

This wasn't a Christmas show, it was one of Joey's local shows that he was doing after the Ramones ended. The Christmas show I saw was at a club called LIFE which is now Le Poussin Rouge.

The only person who could make a Billy Joel song magical. This one hurts.

Damn, Ronnie looked really good in that video.WestwayKid wrote: ↑12 Jan 2022, 7:02pmRonnie Spector had a lot of great songs, but what about her brief comeback with the Money Man?
Also that song is massive. Yeah it has that overproduced 80s sheen, but it's such a good hook and riff. I can't not like it.
Also LOL @Steve Van Zandt taking credit for her career resurrection and not this song.
