5. I was forced to endure an Amy Grant "concert" once.

I was 13, and it was the oddest thing that I have ever endured in my entire life.

I used to have to spend the summers with my fundie father, and not only did he think that it was a good idea to take my sister and I, he took numerous girls from his church. His reasoning was somewhere along the lines of same age= fast friends.

The only thing that kept me sane was that he allowed me to keep my Walkman. Oy!

6. Why pick on Amy?

After all, she's a Good Christian. Why, the way she and Vince Gill dumped their respective spouses to marry each other was about the finest example of Christian marital fidelity I've ever seen. Talk about "moral values"...!

7. Ordinarily, I won't post entire lyrics ...

but I think you'll appreciate this set. It's from the late '80s, by a band called the Young Fresh Fellows, and I don't know if the lyrics are 100% accurate (I'm a few thousand brain cells down the road from the last time I heard this, and somebody else transcribed them):

"Amy Grant"
(by Young Fresh Fellows)

Amy, Amy Grant
Amy, Amy Grant
Amy, Amy Grant

She comes home from church
She takes off her pants
That's what I like about Amy Grant
When she come home from church
She gotta take off her pants
That's what I like about Amy Grant
I'm talkin' 'bout Amy ... Amy ... Amy ... <<hua!>> Amy Grant!

Now those song she writes
And, lordy, the way she sings
Too bad our friends don't care about such little things
She don't spare the child
She don't spoil the rod
She just gets rich 'cause she works for God
I'm talkin' 'bout Amy ... Amy ... Amy ... Amy Grant!

Now when she first met Jesus
Didn't know what to say
But he gave her a guitar
and he told her what to play
He said "Amy, don't you play a lotta jazz
Don't you play none of that hard rock
What the people wanna hear is pure unadulterated schlock
I'm talkin' to Amy ... Amy ... Amy ... <<hua!>> Amy Grant!"

Amy, Amy Grant(x4)

Alone in bed
Late at night
She fantasizes
about Barry White

Barry, Barry White
Barry, Barry White

I'm talkin 'bout Amy ... Amy ... Amy ... <<hua!>> Amy Grant!

9. It's a hoot.

I had a friend back circa 1990 who had a radio show on a community radio station, he played it a lot. Great tune -- YFF are great.
