I looked it up on YouTube and it is actually late 70s.
(Insert usual "Why the fuck do I have a perfume commercial from 1979 permanently lodged in my head, and I don't know where I put my car keys yesterday?" rant here)

Bryan Adams's "Please Forgive Me" entered my head yesterday and wouldn't leave for hours.
but then inexplicably my brain made it a more mush-mouthed version that sounded like "Please Zbigniew, I know not what I do", so now that's all I can hear.

Is that how you lot are pronouncing Pannettiere?

dog latin: for the purposes of this thread, yes. In a representative democracy, we reach a consensus on how to mangle the pronunciation of furrin words, and abide by that decision. My country, right or wrong.
morrisp: according to my attorneys, I don't have to answer that.

Lately when I feed my cats I find myself singing "foooood for caaaaats" to the tune of the Squeeze song "Cool for Cats."
This is in addition to the longstanding mental association with the old Far Side CAT FUD cartoon.
But the two don't really work together. I don't sing "fuuuuud for caaats." It's definitely "foooood for caaaaats."
