JUST DUET!


How would you like to

A.
Play POPSTAR matchmaker with your favorite
boy band BOY and your favorite
girl band GIRL
(yes, you can hook up Lance & George if you like)
and create your ultimate teen idol dream couple?

B.
You can just rant (get medieval if you must) about who owes you BIG TIME for years of unrequited fanatical Love, Devotion, Dollars and Fashion Fiascos..

C.
You can even tell me who you are still secretly 'holding out for'..
I promise not to tell a soul.

    Hi there. Visiting from Ces' blog.

    I'm afraid I'm not much into girl or boy bands. Didn't even spend years in fanatical devotion to anybody (yep, not even madonna).

    But I am secretly holding out for Daniel Craig. not a pop star I know, but what the heck...

  2. I'm still holding out for Ian Gillam. I'm sorry, Aidan. But he's the frontman of DEEP PURPLE for god's sake! Gotta love an ageing rocker.

    I was madly, passionately, desperately in love with Freddie Mercury. His voice, his look, his on-stage presence quite literally made me quiver. *Sigh*

  11. I used to kiss my Bon Jovi poster every night before bed. Sometimes I licked it. *hangs head in shame*

    Sammie Roberts will always have a special place in my heart.

  12. christine,
    HA HA HA @ hangs head in shame..
    it took a lot of courage to admit to that...HA HA HA..
    that is awesome stuff.
    She says: We've got to hold on to what we've got
    'Cause it doesn't make a difference
    If we make it or not
    We've got each other and that's a lot
    For love - we'll give it a shot
    WO-OH!
    We're half way there
    WO-OOOH!!
    Livin' on a prayer
    Lick my poster and we'll make it I swear

    Knowing your penchant for those hot blooded latino types I suspect that you were busy clicking on the MENUDO poster on the post to see how cute little Ricky Martin was...aaaah..

    I think someone should point out to laurie that Freddie was not exactly into girls.........sorry kid.

    But DAMN he was good!

    I vote for KISS meets the Lennon Sisters!

    Or how about a blind date between the Osmond brothers and Twisted Sister? hmmmm....that could get complicated........

    ReplyDelete
  17. THE michael,
    I wish that the Lennon Sisters had been video taped with John Lennon in a 'menage-a-cinque' during his nudie 'Give Peace A Chance' protest in Montreal..that would have spiced up their image...or how about if they were caught trashing Hotel rooms with Keith Moon.

    ReplyDelete
  18. he, i have to think about this. you have stimulated my morning by mentioning the lennon sisters.

    hey, he!! fantastic logo you have,or whatever it's called. what a classy blog you have. are you hoping for international recognition? if so i will pray for you.

    ReplyDelete
  19. kj,
    My sister loved the Lennon Sisters at about the same time that I was listening to the Stones...it wasn't pretty.
    Yes I am aiming for complete domination of the Blogosphere.
    My simple dream entails exerting my will upon all humans and specifically instructing them on how and what to think about everything...
    starting....

    is this part of the forensic interpretation, or just a distraction in lieu of?
    how about michael jackson and donnie osmond? i sensed some real chemistry there (at least on one side of the equation).

    speaking of distraction, i still want to borrow RB and live in the past.

    I never did 'get' him but to each her own...of course he isn't that big on this side of the pond so maybe I missed something.

    reyspoutine,
    Look if you can't stand for a little levity now and then perhaps you need to start
    Mr Seri-ass.Blogspot...

    I tend to get incredibly bored when I formulate and forcefeed my a-la-carte cosmology...
    it becomes so tedious that these fun and seemingly frivolous posts actaully accomplish a great deal towards my not-so-secretive quest to become my namesake (Donald) Master Of The Universe...

    To hold out for ?? my dictionary is not clear about that : to hold in, to hold under, to hold aloof, to hold back, to hold down, to hold off, to hold on, to hold over, to hold up, ... Yes, yes, I understand :-) , I just miss fanatical devotion to bands, are Vikings and medieval knights OK too ?

    I at one time, had both Spice Girls albums.

    Ok, I will be honest, I still have them in my room. I don't listen to them though. I keep them so I can look at the CD covers, and the little booklets that are with each disc.

    That might be even more sad.

  25. Sting (sighs dreamily). When I first developed an interest in The Police, I had a crush on Stewart Copeland (the drummer). It didn't take long for Sting to step in though. Seriously, what woman wouldn't love him... the man can go for hours!

    Iamallaboutspicegirlsblogger,

    anna,
    Oh puh-leeze you don't really believe that Sting story about Tantric Sex..poppycock I say!
    Besides I don't even think that it would be fun to have sex for 4 consequtive hours...I said that out loud didn't I?

    steven novak,

    DIOS MIO PERISH THE THOUGHT!!!

    No penchant for Latino here! Not after Spain... and not after a hot life with a hot Loverboy... this Iranian man does it for me as with him you get the hot bloodedness and mucha pasiĆ³n with intelligence to boot... I like my man challenging and after Spain, Latinos? *shudder*

    No gracias!

    I will confess to having been party to a geeky dance to "Venus" by Bananarama where my sister, girl cousin and I were the main dancers and my brother and boy cousin shook their thangs while standing between us and yeah, we performed away for family members and are EVER so thankful that such a horrible event was never filmed! DIOS MIO!

    Other than that, Madonna was my goddess! FO SHO!

  30. It was Duran Duran, all the way, baby!

    Of course I remember seeing NKOTB my graduation night at Disneyland, but it's not like I bought a ticket to see "the right stuff" or anything. I was more concerned with getting high and riding Splash Mountain.

    /grin

    Oh the memories.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Well, when I was four I had a crush on David Jones AND Peter Tork of Monkees. At the same time. There was David Cassidy, David Essex (who I still feel a bit gooey about, despite his thinning hair), David Bowie (not now he's had his teeth capped. Sigh). Is that enough Davids?

    I think Billy Idol and Debbie Harry would've made a good teen idol couple. Well, I fancied them both during the "confusing hormonal phase" and they could both share hair peroxiding duties.

    Oh you sensitive Arteests! You are more than welcome to espouse your virulent Liberalism...you seem to forget that I am a BIG L Liberal on everything but crime.
    I maintain the right to fritter away valuable cyberspace on any topic of my choosing because of my nanosecond attention span.

    Mizzy Bo,
    ((and I-RAN,
    I-RAN so far away)) some 80s Flock Of Seagulls for you.
    Yes, I hear ya! I thought that the Vida Loca reference was too irresistable...so OLE!
    Madonna, Madonna..she has done a great job of reinventing herself and working with the best Producers to stay current, topical and interesting...I think that she is marvelous...if only she could get a break at the box office..she needs to take on a Travoltian comeback Pulp Fictionesque role.

    tidalgrrrl,
    ((Step by step,Oh BABY!))
    Awesome premise for a teen slasher movie..
    grad night, NKOTB, Splash Mountain..with Cheech and Chong as your Teachers...woohooo!
    How many Wahlbergs are there anyway?
    Donny, Marky Mark and the guy from American Roadshow..is he their brother too?

    Betty,
    Yippee.. a bona fide Music connoiseur...
    I still can't believe that Bowie had to change his name because of that 'other Davy Jones' in the Monkee...isn't Life strange.

    I do like your list of Davids but you forgot the Big one..Hasselhoff!!
    Lurrve your idea of the blondies:Idol and Harry, that is sweet...my fun couple would be:
    Keith Richards and Courtney Love

    Now Don, look, the Grand Opening of the Forensic Anthropology Museum and Taco Bar here in Freedom's place has already been delayed once, and I'm not sure I can get The Electric Light Orchestra to reschedule for us again, so get your butt over there and do your thing! We are only going to remain on the map so long as talent such as yours puts it there!
    I must also remind you that the rubber check I sent you is drawn on the Iraqi National Bank and might not retain it's special properties much longer.

  37. A. Jimi Hendrix and Tina Turner. Might be old school, but think of the children!

    B. The Beatles owe me for the "bangs" in grade school. This requires explanation. I wanted a Beatle haircut. I was not allowed to get one. Barber cut hair on slant, with chunk cut out to discourage combing bangwards. We wore bangs anyway. We looked like dorks. Hell, we were seven; we were dorks.

    C. I am holding out for the reincarnation of Janis Joplin. Sorry Melissa Ethridge. Close, but no cigar. No pun intended.

    ReplyDelete
  38. No ways.. I'm not holding out for any of these people.. I long ago decided that the (how do I say this?) integrity (?) of any guy that was in a boyband is, questionable, to say the least

  45. I don't think Betty has adequately addressed her "confusing hormonal phase" relating specifically to fancying both Billy Idol AND Debbie Harry but tales of substance abuse will suffice for now.

    She's getting off lightly this time.

    It goes without saying that most of the available Y chromosones out there are not up to your standards..
    but you just need to be looking in the right places.

    mj,
    Betty has always been very considerate and gentle when she is debunking my ridiculous notions and I don't want to jeopardize that...you go first.

    grumbla',
    I love Slash and Debbie Gibson doin' Gershwin. Gee when I was a lad Alice Cooper was shocking...now what would an entertainer need to do to be considered shocking? Hmm?

    awaiting,
    LL Cool J?
    Grandmaster Flash?
    Flava?
    You know that when you say 'way back to the 90s' that it makes me feel old...OK Who was it?

    jeff gagne,
    Hey Jeff thanks again for dropping by..Spencer and I were just strolling through the Myspace underworld (where nobody over 29 is allowed to exist) and we saw you...
    I am totally convinced that you could be the next JT but you need to relocate..
    or become the new 'Numa Numa'guy on YouTube!

    winston,weinerhead,
    Mel and Lawrence? They probably were friends...are you trying to hook them up romantically..because that is just wrong on so many levels..look I know that you can name atleast one current Pop star Dallas Green so just try and remember the name of a Popstar when you were a kid back in the 40s..oh I guess you did Mel Torme.
