And, and look, I, like everybody else, I, I mean, I sorta like Loverboy.
Chris AkinHOST
I, I al- when Mike Reno weighed 160 pounds, he still sounded like he was always getting ready to cry.
Chris AkinHOST
So that all-
Monty ColvinGUEST
Yeah
Chris AkinHOST
... by itself made me not wanna like Loverboy.
Chris AkinHOST
But-
Monty ColvinGUEST
Well, I liked them back, I liked them back-
Mike PriceHOST
What's their one hit?
Eric GosselinHOST
Oh, is it Working for the Weekend? No, that's Loverboy.

Loverboy has

like five hits.
