That's Michael McDonald in the pic I posted.

Speaking of Bob Seger, though, I was at my cousin's house for a family dinner a few weeks ago, and my mom was talking about how great the iTunes Store is ... "Except the other day," she said, "I was trying to find some music by Bob Seger ... for a friend." She didn't actually mean to pause like that -- it was in fact for a friend (she claimed not to have ever heard of Bob Seger before) -- but I can guarantee you there was much ribbing.

I told her that she was probably misspelling his name, that it's just one E, not two like Pete.

(Dan, I'm guessing you meant Michael McDonald. John Michael Montgomery is a clean-shaven dimple-faced country dude.)

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Why did I think there was a "John" at the beginning of that guy's name? I would say I'm retarded but come on, this is classic rock we're talking about.

Yeah, come on Yacht Rockers! I'm a little disappointed in you all.

He is so happy!

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

He also has no eyeballs. Or soul.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Somebody photoshop some glowing red demon eyes on him.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Seger does not look good these days:

I was last outside at 8AM. I have been in a tiny, drafty room with a space heater for the last 4 hours. I wish I had a ski mask.

why is his face that scary color?

Christopher Cross is cute.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I'll go sailing with him any day. Or the old him, anyway.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I was the president of the Michael McDonald Lack of Appreciation Society for a long time. My association with that association cannot be discussed in a public forum, as it may incriminate me in several non-violent crimes.

Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Jenny OTM, of course.

whoop de doodle (kenan), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:30 (seventeen years ago) link

He looks a little like Billy Corgan there. Remember when he was also cute?

My unironic love of AM Gold is no joke, people.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link

My friend 3van was trying to convince me that Michael McDonald has got some serious soul. He's an unironic yacht rocker, I think.

JordanC (JordanC), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:34 (seventeen years ago) link

"Sailing" is a really pretty song. There's no way around that.

whoop de doodle (kenan), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude, I love it too. But I cannot stomach the soulless sounds of Michael McDonald.

Gerry Rafferty?

Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, 3van.

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link

McDonald is a great backup vocalist, or with the Doobies. A songwriter, he ain't.

whoop de doodle (kenan), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Gerry Rafferty?

I don't think so. And it's not Gordon Lightfoot, either. The annals of lite rock beardos are to vast to take wild guesses like that.

Badass track by my man Christopher Cross. If you play close attention... this song is actually about espionage. Can someone say "Swordfish" or "Keyser Soze" from the "Usual Suspects" ? Nothing is what it seems. Scope the lyrics reeeeeeeallll close... LOL

Kenan OTM.

I'm stumped!

*shame*

Bob Welch?

Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I think that one may be a little too hard... I'm trying to think of a hint that doesn't totally give it away.

SUCH A LONG WAY TO GOOOOOOOOOOO

Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Bob Welch?

The former Oakland A who won the 1990 Cy Young Award and the last major-league pitcher to amass more than 25 wins in a single season?

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:39 (seventeen years ago) link

See also: Robbie Dupree

I love that video for two reasons:
1. I love the song.
2. He is rocking the quintessential Yacht Rock look, right down to the non-aggressive sweater and white pants combo.

xpost - no ding dong. Bob Welch.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:40 (seventeen years ago) link

How about... he's only really known for one pop song, and he also wrote a Tony-winning musical.

Rupert Holmes!

Who the eff is Rupert Holmes?

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:46 (seventeen years ago) link

He wrote the Pina Colada Song.

whoop de doodle (kenan), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I've heard the title. Listening to it on YouTube now, don't think I know the song.

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Gerry Rafferty wins. His perm was more awesome.

Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Man, you were better off that way. xpost

danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:51 (seventeen years ago) link

I can play Baker Street on the saxophone. Or at least I could the last time I tried, which admittedly was about 8 years ago.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:52 (seventeen years ago) link

I used to play "Jump" by Kris Kross on the clarinet, much to the delight of the African American girls in my 8th-grade band class.

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:54 (seventeen years ago) link

The best part of the Steal Away video is when he gets DOWN toward the end and like, bends his knees a little bit.

Rupert Holmes was much more than the Pina Colada Song. Oh will the inoffensive white men of AM Gold ever get their due?

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:55 (seventeen years ago) link

The far superior Rupert Holmes song "Him."

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:56 (seventeen years ago) link

OMG listening to "Baker Street" right now -- didn't know this song had a name!! Or ... a verse. Weird: I've heard that sax riff a million times out of context, apparently.

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Him! Him! Him!
Me! Me! Me!

We'll return changed. Softer. Mellower. Wearing crew-neck sweaters and white pants.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:58 (seventeen years ago) link

The far superior Rupert Holmes song "Him."

See, your knowledge of the man far exceeds my own. There was some googling involved in my answer. But I did remember that the guy who wrote Pina Colada also wrote a musical.

xpost: i bought a ringtone. i bought the theme to 'the people's court' (when i had been drinking some wine) for when leaf calls me. i thought it was hilarious. it's actually kind of a funky tune.
