Sorry hide, can't say it's a joke. You must remember, however, that I am a little older than you guys. I graduated high school in 1985 so pretty much everything in that song rings true for me. I DO remember when there was music still on MTV. In fact, I remember when MTV first came on the air, all videos-all the time. No commercials, no ridiculously stupid reality shows. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

holy shit, i fucking hate that song! can't stand it. a friend of mine loves it, she plays it all the damn time! when i think '85, i think of guitar solos that were halfway decent. of course, the one by BFS in the song sucks major balls. the song just sucks on so many levels....
