>I remember being forced to listen to that song every schoolday while my mom made breakfast.<
I remembered the first line and the chorus about getting ready for love but for some reason I never heard the whole thing--or tuned in on the rest of what the song was saying. (I suspect I was more into my Disney storytelling records than I was into adult lounge music. :)) In fact, it wasn't until W&L was used in the credits of THE FIRST WIVES' CLUB that I registered all the lyrics. Sheesh. Songs like that make one understand why feminism came about as much as all THE FEMININE MYSTIQUES and MS. magazines out there...:P
<<Greyson Fletcher... why? He surfed one time, he's skateboarded twice, and he can't act at all. I mean not even a little bit.>>
You've go to be kidding. Greyson is the son and grandson of seminal figures in surfing, and his family is the intended model for the whole program. He surfs very well, and he is one of the top skateboarders in the world. As for his acting, he is spot-on with his portrayal of a teenage Southern California surfer.
