We Didn't Start The Fire

Surely it is "Wheel of Fortune, Sally Ride, heavy metal, Suicide" as in Vega and Rev, yes?

I always thought it was "heavy metal suicide." This was the age when Judas Priest and Ozzy Osbourne were being held responsible for such things, remember.

It would have been nice, though.

I had to google Sally Ride because of this thread.

I think I've spotted where she hides her dildo.

It breaks up on re-entry.

I bet she thought Mustang Sally was about her.

Yeah, unfortunately she only got this old codswallop from Billy Joel.

Why did the lyrics stop before the mid 80s?

Because the song came out in 1989?

When Diana died Billy and Elton did a coin flip to decide whether it'd be "Candle In The Wind '97" or "We Didn't Start The Fire '97."

There's a great 12" inversion produced by Trevor Horn, with string arrangements by Anne Dudley and a Holly Johnson cameo; he sings the JFK line.

Q: What is "the fire"

you should start all your posts with Q:

Then your handle would make sense

Q: Will someone answer the question?

(my handle comes from my wife, who is known around here as quincie. heh heh get it?)

I kind of like this song.

i don't know if anyone has really thought about this, but, you know what? this song is horrible.

I wish I had voted for "Belgians in the Congo" because he gets all growly on that part.

The cola wars are the straw that finally breaks the camel's back.

That's when he can't take it any more.

The song and video have been interpreted as a rebuttal to criticism of Joel's Baby Boomer generation, from both its preceding and succeeding generations, that they were responsible for much of the world's problems.[citation needed] The song's title and refrain imply that the frenzied and troubled state which others were criticizing had been the state of the world since long before his generation's time, but that this was (perhaps wilfully) being ignored by their critics.

re-reading this I realize I have no fucking clue what at least a third of these things refer to. I suppose I didn't read a lot of newspapers in the seventies.
