All I can say..is when this song came out..was it 89 or 90? I can't even remember...but they were some VERY fun years. Fuck me...we had a blast. Rockin out in the summer....partying our asses off...girls everywhere..everybody just wantin to have fun..not all the poser bullshit you see today. it was just working class folks getting down.

good entry
grew up in mn and that event and song has a sort of weird place in my mind, a sad legend that kind of haunts lake superior.
my parents had gord's gold on vinyl and i used to listen to it when i was a kid, that song had a lot of impact on me, it really felt like the world of music opened up to include the sad and scary and mythological events of the world...of course the song i hear now isn't necessarily how the song was to me at the time, but it's got a certain power still

love this:
The old saw is that writing about music is like dancing about architecture, but writing about music on YouTube is like clambering up on the architecture, hanging banners and family photos on the window ledges, or tossing garbage from the gables. Its anonymity makes it all the more like a group portrait, hauling us into visibility in all our bedraggled need. It’s not that you can’t or shouldn’t formally analyze or evaluate a song, but YouTube’s intimate entanglements make it plainer that doing so is no more the end of the process than gossiping about your family, even to your therapist, is a resolution to the relationship.
