Name That 'Do 3

Okay, geto boy, you figured out Rod Stewart pretty easily. Punk Let's see how you guys do with this 'do. I'll start with one hint: his big hit was in the '80s. "Yes or no" questions are welcome.

  3. i agree w/ duke. there are no golden locks like that of George Michael. you couldn't have picked a more beautiful mane to exhibit.

  4. Raoul and spooge: No, geto boy already guessed that. This one is trickier than you guys think. You might need to ask some questions to get it. Start by paying more attention to my initial clue: George Michael had loads of hits.

  6. Don Imus?



    Sorry. Could not help myself.

  7. Raoul: That's probably an accurate description of his well-known ballad.

    Clash: Not sure if Imus had a big hit in the '80s, but if he did, I doubt anyone will play it now!

  15. Is it Roscoe? It does not look like Roscoes crew cut but you could have photo shopped it.

    Don Johnson sang back up on a Greg Allman album, Josh will know all the facts, he is a Don Johnson expert.

    When do I get my prize?

  16. Raoul: Yes, it's most definitely about a woman, and you can tell by the song title. No, it's not Corey Hart.

  26. Rob: Once again you've solved the riddle. It is indeed Patrick Swayze. You're two for two on tough ones, man.

    Here's a stroll down memory lane for some of the most dynamic lyrics to ever grace a song:

    She's Like the Wind

    She's like the wind through my tree
    She rides the night next to me
    She leads me through moonlight
    Only to burn me with the sun
    She's taken my heart
    But she doesn't know what she's done

    Feel her breath on my face
    Her body close to me
    Can't look in her eyes
    She's out of my league
    Just a fool to believe
    I have anything she needs
    She's like the wind

    [SOLO]

    I look in the mirror and all I see
    Is a young old man with only a dream
    Am I just fooling myself
    That she'll stop the pain
    Living without her
    I'd go insane

    Feel her breath on my face
    Her body close to me
    Can't look in her eyes
    She's out of my league
    Just a fool to believe
    I have anything she needs
    She's like the wind

    Feel your breath on my face
    Your body close to me
    Can't look in your eyes
    You're out of my league
    Just a fool to believe
    (Just a fool to believe)
    She's like the wind
    (Just a fool to believe)
    Just a fool to believe
    (She's like the wind)
    Just a fool to believe
    (Just a fool to believe)
    She's like the wind
    (Just a fool to believe)
    Just a fool to believe
    She's like the wind

    (Just a fool...)
    (She's like the wind)
    (She's like the wind)
    (Just a fool...)
    (She's like the wind)
    (Just a fool...)

  28. did he sing that song? i thought christopher cross sang that song.

    oh. those golden locks. makes me melt.

  29. Yep, that was all Patrick Swayze. That's the thing about that dude -- one minute he's singing spoogey ballads and doing this and the next minute he's bouncing at road houses and tearing dude's throats out. That's versatility!

    ReplyDelete
  30. It's either his way or the highway.

    Road House is the greatest American comedy of the 80s.

  31. Roadhouse. Man, my college roomate (David "Balls" Bolten) LOVED that movie. Loved it.

    "It was tails."

    Let the comments/jibes/questions about my college roomates nickname commence.

  32. Zee, did you watch the YouTube link I posted just above? Can you tell what the "enemy" was trying to do to Patrick Swayze before our tender hero had to go and twist his leg all up? I mean, what kind of attack was that?

    I don't remember "Balls." Was that on Falling Run Road? Did he do ball tricks or something (the Flying Squirrel, etc.)?
