“My Early Morning Wake-Up Song! All through high school, circa 1978. Crank it ’til the windows rattle and your Mom is screaming at you, but you can’t hear her over the band, so you turn turn it down n say, “What?” And she’s screaming “TURN IT DOWN!” And this is how it goes all through my high school years. Rock n Roll Saved My Soul!“

“This song makes me feel like I’m a gladiator slow-motion walking into a colosseum on another planet about to fight a bunch of wack-ass space dudes in exchange for my ticket home.“
