From Erin's blog :Interesting. I wasn't really genre-specific, was I? I just liked the songs I liked, regardless. But Journey was MY ABSOLUTE FAVE, and AOR was my preference. (Where are Iron Maiden and Judas Priest? Where? Or Kansas and Boston?) Surprised at how much Top 40/R&B I liked.

You know what's really scary? The number of those songs that I had instant lyric recollection of. I can barely remember Happy Birthday.
A kindred soul who hates that Pointer Sister song too. Yes.
