Two for Tuesday

Greensboro, NC -- Undergoing a massive overhaul with my ipod during the past couple of weeks. I've been cleaning out some tunes that I never really liked in the first place. Other songs that I gave the ax to just had poor sound quality. With that comes today's theme, and discovery. I just realized how many songs are outdated in the world's rock n' roll collection. I found this group of hits, with a little help from Dave FM.

• Prince - "1999" - It's 2007!
• Tommy Tutone - "Jenny (867-5309)" - Phone numbers are now 10 digits!
• Sting - "Russians" - A song about the repercussions of the Cold War.
• The Beatles - "Back in the USSR" - The USSR no longer exists!
• Sheryl Crow - "All I Wanna Do" - The song features discos and the now defunct record store.
• Bowling for Soup - "1985" - Another year.
• The Bugules - "Video Killed the Radio Star" - Videos? We're onto DVD's!
• Joe Cocker - "The Letter" - Does anyone use snail mail anymore?
• Joan Jett & The Blackhearts - "I Love Rock n' Roll" - A jukebox at a club? Try the DJ's ipod.
• Paul Simon - "Kodachrome" - Nobody has a Kodak camera anymore.
• Dada - "Dizz Knee World" - In the song, it references flipping the bird to George H.W. Bush, the president. Well, that was 1992.
• The Police - "Roxanne" - That red light has burned out by now.

Because rock may be timeless, but life isn't!
