Feeling a little slow around here this evening...so today's favorites!

Although it's not my coin, I couldn't resist : looking at it I've always been thinking of them






Q

 

=> outstanding, eh?!! (man, it looked like quite the party!!)



oh, but I thought I'd also toss-in a newer version ... "new version?" (he said)



Yah, I "love" you original version (awesome teen memories) ... but I also like both versions (ummm, occasionally you're allowed to like both, right?)

Hey look, it's fricken Saturday once again!!!

 

I need to have a few more refreshments before I can seriously start replying here.

 

My older sister gave me this "album" ... 45 fricken years ago (wow, amazing, eh?!!)

=> seems like yesterday

 

I need to think of some songs to post because I have several coins that need to be shared.

I'm not a Rod Stewart fan...but I do like your coin!

 

Yah, even if you hate Rod, ya gotta love that song (makes me pumped, every fricken time!!)

=> it's like a fricken Time-Machine!!

 

What's wrong with you? Rod Stewart was one of the best.

 

I'm a metal kind of guy. I am a big fan of the classics but there are some that don't do much for me.

 

Man I like Fall Out Boy!

 

so do I ...
