i think the thing that confuses me most about boomers is their inexhaustible love for "hey jude"

let's be honest here the song is no "all star"

Maybe I shouldn't be, but I'm surprised by no Guess Who. They were always one of the five or ten most played bands on Canadian classic-rock stations because of Cancon regulations, but I still would have thought at least "American Woman" on an American station, maybe "These Eyes" or "No Sugar Tonight" or "Hand Me Down World," too.

like the only way this makes sense is because he's gonna dispute the result b/c of the post office clusterfuck that he created & honestly I can't see that argument holding in any court even with all the chud judges he's installed
There's a lot of Elvis Costello! How many would be on such a list now? Zero?
