Good info. As a petty, bitter, and vindictive man, I like to keep little -- Coach McGuirk Jun 21, 2026 at 07:51 AM ET

Yeah, but "Burning Down the Couch" was inspired by West Virginia. -- KCHokie2 Jun 20, 2026 at 11:39 PM ET

Not VA. It was really inspired by Clopper Road in Montgomery County, MD. ** -- swordsman1 Jun 20, 2026 at 10:06 PM ET

Afternoon Delight was a stereotypical 70s hit.** -- EDGEMAN Jun 21, 2026 at 06:33 AM ET
