    Beat me to it! And I have some fun Def Leppard stories, too.
    That was my very first CD that I owned before I even had a CD player, my best friend bought it for me.
    Hubby used to drive school bus back in the day and he taught those lyrics to the kindergarteners.

    @Mustang_Susie , I like the way your Old man operates!
    reminds me of the time, in high school, our history teacher was shocked to hear (and read out loud) the lyrics to the most popular tune that week,..Grace Jones "Pull up to my bumper"

    One from the AT40 countdown on this day in 1977. It's on right now on XM7. Awesome countdown so far.

    Great hint .
    got the artist right away but after running in circles for the song (unfamiliar) I googl-cheated
    so back to the box for me.

    Guessed off the clues
    Google-cheated to confirm such a group/song existed
    Not familiar with it
    And off I go, again, with RunT :(
