This month ... it's all about the top 30 jukebox memories (see rules below) -- relevant because it was *our* class who got a jukebox installed in the cafeteria (along with Coke machines and one of those electronic message boards).
All together now: "Don't call me when your toaster won't pop up ... don't call me just to cut your lawn ... don't call me when your radio cuts off in the middle of your favorite song ... don't call me when your shower just went (bubbly sound) ... uh-uh, no, baby, don't call me ... I think I told you this about a million times ... you know, it's not ... my ... cup ... of ... tea!" If you did not join in ... or you did now know what bubbly sound to make when talking about the shower ... or you did not slow down for dramatic pause with the final words ... then should you really be reading this? I mean, either you graduated in 1989 like we did ... or you have absolutely no idea about 'Rocket 2U', by the Polynesian-American sibling group (?!) The Jets.
RULES FOR THIS TOP 30 LIST: Songs are as remembered from when they were being played loudly in the cafeteria, making us all raise our voices at mealtimes in order to hear each other. All memories are believed to be accurate and will be fact checked on the interwebs to make sure that featured songs were actually released prior to June of 1989 (but since these memories are thirty years old, there is not a guarantee of 100% accuracy.) Also note that an appearance on this list is not necessarily an endorsement of the song or the artist. And if anyone out there wants to make a mixtape that we can all make copies of at the reunion, now is the time to start working on that task.
