Image
July 30, 1983 - 38 Years Ago Today: Billy Joel had the Hot Shot Debut at No. 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart with his single, "Tell Her About It." This self-penned song was the leadoff single from Joel's ninth studio album, "An Innocent Man," and the first of 6 hit singles from the album. "Tell Her About It," became Joel's 21st chart entry and his 18th Top 40 hit and 2nd No. 1. It also became his 3rd No. 1 single on the Billboard AC Chart where it enjoyed a 2-week run at the top.

The inaugural Razzies took place during a fascinating on-the-cusp age of musical cinema, the late ‘70s/early ‘80s, when hard rock, punk, new wave, glam, disco, and even big-band all merged and mashed — sometimes successfully ( Grease ,   Fame ,   Pink Floyd’s The Wall ), sometimes not much ( Sgt. Pepper ,   The Apple ,   KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park ,   Pennies From Heaven, Popeye , and of course, the two above-mentioned flicks). Xanadu , for what it’s worth, “lost” the Razzie to the Village People (as did Neil Diamond’s even cringey-er nominee,  The Jaz...

Why Kalabash Twins' song, "Heavy Under You" was a bad mistake that hurt families and children after "Heathcliff and Marmaduke" ended on December 6, 1981 and why it should be removed and deleted because of its vulgarity

Kalabash Twins ' song, "Heavy Under You" , was a bad mistake that hurt families and children after "Heathcliff and Marmaduke" ended on December 6, 1981. The song contained explicit lyrics and themes that were considered inappropriate for the younger demographic that watched the show. The lyrics were vulgar and the song contained references to drugs and alcohol that could have potentially negatively influenced the young viewers. The song was a bad mistake and should be removed and deleted because of its vulgarity. It could have caused confusion and distress among the children that watched the show, and it should not be tolerated. The song "Heavy Under You" by Kalabash Twins is inappropriate and vulgar due to the explicit lyrics and should be removed from any public or private spaces.
