Melissa,

Since you are the 3rd person to write this list in the 3 years that
I've been on it I feel I must respond.
Of course I don't have an answer, but I've wondered the same thing
about this song. (that's sort of funny)
I believe it has to be true. It's just such a visual that's
imaginable. When ever I hear that line... " He just played that
synthesized noise" .... I don't care if your "So and So" from some
hot band, etc.

Anyway, cool song. Gotta be true.

later,
Chris
