This book is laugh-out-loud funny. On the negative side, Jesus' name is used in vain one time in the book and a crude word is used three times.

Funny and on target, but more of a magazine article than a book. Read the whole thing in an hour, I think! (

For all the songs Neil Diamond "brang" to us. . . for the chair that did not or would not hear poor Neil in "I Am, I Said," and every other song or lyric you've ever loathed--including my personal rip-out-the-radio anthem, "Copacabana" by Barry Manilow. From the weird ones, like "Muskrat Love" and "MacArthur Park," to breakup sobfests like "All By Myself"; from teen-death ditties to all the girls Willie Nelson's loved before, if there are any songs that you would honest-to-God pay cold cash never to hear again, betcha Dave has covered them in this great little book in his inimitable style.

Hilarious book. You probably need to be a baby boomer, and thus remember all the crappy songs, to fully appreciate it. (

Barry is his usual puckish self, but the real surprise here is how funny many of the survey respondents are.
