    A Day At The Races

    A local radio station is doing a TV Show Theme Song Bracket (March Madness, you know). They want more information than I want to give them, but you could follow along without voting.

    Along those lines.....

    2. James Taylor
    3. B.J. Thomas

    I know who they are. But, off the top of my head, without looking it up, I can't name a song or movie.

    Centerfold is correct, but also Freeze Frame.

    I'll hold to see if anyone else would like to chime in on the Alan Parsons/Spinners hits.

    It could have been something by Pink, but I couldn't find one that made sense to me.

    I'll throw out a hard one. Well, hard for me because I didn't recall this song that was on the radio this morning from the 80s.

    Eddie Money + Jesus = [song]

    Have not seen her on that. Not familiar with it. But it seems to me I did see her on something, recently. I just don't remember what.
