1. "Why Can't We Be Friends"
I just remember it from the credit roll in Lethal Weapon 4.

2. "All Day Music"
Especially this time of year. I can't NOT feel good hearing it, and that organ break always makes me smile.

6. I was on the island of Crete many years ago
Edited on Thu Jul-29-04 02:54 AM by buycitgo
there was this bar......

about half Greek men, running to older gentelmen, half tourists, AirForce guys from the base down the road

had those two and many other excellent songs on it; never can hear all day music, or darkness without thinking of that place

my friend had this gorilla mask that he'd bring in, and put on, dance to certain songs; had to see it for the effect--pretty amazing

then, after a few weeks of this, the bar owner said he couldn't wear the mask anymore; he made him CHECK it when we came in

we asked him why, and how come he didn't like it anymore

he said, and I'll always remember the look on his face....pained....
"I LOVE that mask!" but, he explained, his regular Greek customers HATED it. It scared the crap out of them, and they threatened to stop coming to the bar anymore, AND ostracize him, which he could not abide.

So, from then on, everytime we came in, he had to give him the mask until we left

he made him NOT WEAR it until we were outside; very strict about that

7. They had so many great ones, it's tough to choose.
But for right now, I'll say "The World Is A Ghetto."

10. I liked the stuff with Eric Burdon
I would say that I would pick their version of "A day in a life" as my favorite War tune.
