Another Saturday Night - Another Cynical Gen X Love Song!

Oh, great, a cynical Gen Xer put their favorite records in this jukebox! Are you being sarcastic? I don't know...

Welcome to another Saturday night of music, memories, and conversations. Last week we listened to paradoxical songs; this week, it's cynicism about love, perfect for a Gen Xer like me! (Even though I've been married for over 20 years...) Yes, it's Valentine's Day. If you want to post true love songs, go ahead in the comments! But I want to talk about when love jerks you around. HAHAHAHA! (sets off smoke bomb, but still there when the smoke clears)

Ah, unrequited love. The love that dares not speak its name, because the object of your infatuation doesn't seem interested. Barenaked Ladies - “Jane”

You screw up enough liquid courage to talk to them....and this is the response!  Itchy and the Nits - “Beat It, Bozo!” .

So....the object of your affection actually responds positively! Anything can screw it up – ANYTHING! (And this is a rare thing – a song Weird Al parodied instead of the parody!) Greg Kihn Band - “Jeopardy”

Gentle reminder: Those on phones really appreciate it if you put the name of your selection in your comment along with your song; and people using screen readers need this in order to identify the video as well. You know how this works — Put your quarter in the slot and your song in the comments. This is your Saturday night jukebox and the party starts NOW~!
