you're too late
Posted on Wednesday, May 02, 2007
I always thought the lyrics to BonJovi's hit, You Give Love a Bad Name were "Shot through the heart / and you're too late" ... but last night's American Idol taught me that the lyrics are actually "Show through the heart / and you're to blame." As a New Jerseyan, it's probably blasphemy for me to admit that -- and even worse -- to say that I hate BonJovi. While I'm at it ... I hate Bruce Springsteen too. Maybe that's why I'm only 69% New Jersey.
Here's the real question ... Is it more embarrassing for me to have gotten the lyrics of such a famous song wrong for 21 years, or for a single, 26 year old guy to regularly watch American Idol? And wasn't Blake's performance awesome?
