      Back in the day I memorized the lyrics and tried to sing along to the hardware story inventory selection part. Since no human have lungs big enough, a friend and I learned to alternate back and forth so we could cover the entire thing.

      They’ve got allen wrenches, gerbil feeders, toilet seats, electric heaters,
      Trash compactors, juice extractors, shower rods and water meters,
      Walkie-talkies, copper wires, safety goggles, radial tires,
      BB pellets, rubber mallets, fans and dehumidifiers,
      Picture hangers, paper cutters, waffle irons, window shutters,
      Paint removers, window louvers, masking tape and plastic gutters,
      Kitchen faucets, folding tables, weather stripping, jumper cables,
      Hooks and tackle, grout and spackle, power foggers, spoons and ladles,
      Pesticides for fumigation, high-performance lubrication,
      Metal roofing, waterproofing, multi-purpose insulation,
      Air compressors, brass connectors, wrecking chisels, smoke detectors,
      Tire gauges, hamster cages, thermostats and bug deflectors,
      Trailer hitch demagnetizers, automatic circumcisers,
      Tennis rackets, angle brackets, Duracells and Energizers,
      Soffit panels, circuit breakers, vacuum cleaners, coffee makers,

    • Blind Melon - Tones of Home
    • Soundgarden - Blow Up the Outside World
    • Shivaree - Goodnight Moon
    • White Stripes - Seven Nation Army
    • Pet Shop Boys - It’s a Sin
    • George Michael - Careless Whisper
    • Q Lazzarus - Goodbye Horses

    There are certainly more, but owing to the fact I have to actively work to evict them, I hesitate to put more thought to it.

      “Tones of home” has been in my head so many times. And the past few days, “Jesus Christ pose” by Soundgarden. I haven’t heard of some of those other artists so I’ll have to check them out.

          Hell yeah! I actually think the Classic Masters album is one of the best greatest hits records ever. Every freaking track on it is a banger. Galaxie I think is track #2 after tones of home, if memory serves.
