...but we're nowhere near "Livin' On A Prayer"'s countdown spot. It unsurprisingly (and deservingly) garnered a spot in the top 10. It doesn't make a difference if we make it there or not, but we definitely will...eventually...

Not feeling like adding any commentary this week. Not sure why, but it's probably due to one or more of the following factors:
1) I'm too stressed about finding someone to take my apartment when I move next week.
2) I'm too busy packing and otherwise getting ready for said move.
3) My extreme dislike of the Spin Doctors has left me in no mood for jokes.
4) Typing that swear word left me embarrassed (oh no, there's another one embedded in that last word!).
5) I'm too stunned about the high placement of "Macarena" on this list to think straight.
So do your best Jeff impression in the comments. What joke would I have made about "Word Up," or the Backstreet Boys? Links are always appreciated.

Macarena was the #1 One Hit Wonder on a Top 100 countdown on VH1 5.5 years ago. People seem to love that song.
I'm having a surprisingly strong aversion to seeing 80s songs mixed with 90s songs on these lists. Somehow the two just seem like polar opposites to me, and I wince when I see "The House of Stone and Light" next to "Glamorous Life." It's so weird.
I really like Roll to Me. And anything that sounds like it.
Shamefully, I also like the Macarena. But the all-Spanish version, not the Spanglish mix. Does that make it more okay?
Wonder is great song. That album (Tigerlily) by Natalie Merchant is one of the few I could listen to over and over again.
The Spin Doctors are awesome.
I had a Spin Doctors shirt that Thomas dared me to wear every day for 30 straight days during the summer before my freshman year of college. I did. I smelled. My girlfriend dumped me.
