Good observation! That’s one of my all-time favorite Simpsons scenes.
This sounds like rock and/or roll…
I actually own this record, but hadn’t listened to it in some time. This song came on SirusXM’s Underground Garage yesterday.
Umm, the words “Butterfly” and “Ball” on the Iron Butterfly sleeve pictured above triggered my memory of this slice of hippy-dippy nonsense. Roger Glover, the bass player for Deep Purple led this, Ronnie James Dio is on vocals. They used to play it every once in awhile between movies on The Movie Channel.
And now I hope I don’t watch it for another 15 years or so.
I just love this song (“Heart Of The City” by Nick Lowe).
Heheh, you had to actually name it just so no one gets the impression you love “Love is All”, huh? 
I have to admit that I didn’t know that song, but I’m quite biased against heavy metal supergroups and projects, so I didn’t listen…
Well, it’s not metal at all. It really is hippie dippy nonsense, and generally really well done. I still don’t really recommend listening to it. I honestly am hoping to go 15 years without hearing it again.
On the other hand, I did listen to “Heart of the City” three times in a row. 
Hey, now of course I had to listen to it, and it’s not what I had expected. When I heard Roger Glover and Ronnie James Dio, I thought of the heavily incestious British metal scene from ca. 1975-85, where members easily changed between Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Whitesnake, Asia, you name it, and virtually everybody also had some side projects. Wasn’t the best music those guys did in their careers. This song though doesn’t sound like that, it’s really best described with “hippie dippy nonsense, really well done”.
Trio (Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris) also covered that one. They changed the line “and I felt like getting high” to “felt like I could cry.”
Yeah, I know, I first heard their cover in a video linked here at the Dope. When I commented that I love the version, but resent that bowdlerization, I got my first “Ok, boomer” retort ever. And I’m a gen-xer. 
Stuck at home because my body is a piece of crap, a friend has a 4th playlist going and got this song in the mix. It’s been a while!
For some reason this just appeared in my list of YouTube recommendations.
I hadn’t heard it for about 50 years when my bro and i used to buy 78rpm records.
Brought back good memories !
Hey now! I don’t know if you saw my thread about albums I really should have listened to and dammit I’m going to do so now? It was a winter project and so it petered out 2 or 3 months ago*…whilst I was working my way through Parliament/Funkadelic. So that (One Nation Under A Groove) brought back a musical memory.

Absolutely on the opposite side of the musical spectrum, me and the hubby went to a Christopher Cross concert day before yesterday (yes, I just turned 60 and my husband is even older) and he closed with a song I haven’t thought of in decades. When he started playing it, I whispered to my husband that this song reminded me of General Hospital even though I know the song had nothing to do with Luke and Laura. As we walked out I heard another older lady excitingly explaining to her friend that she remembered this song from “The Luke and Laura Show!” So I came home and looked it up.
Christopher Cross wrote this song about his girlfriend’s (a million years ago) college roommate who was killed in the backseat of her father’s car because of gang violence. ABC used a few notes of this song as a motif for a storyline where Laura disappears and Luke thinks of her. It was the “Thing of Laura Motif” They never paid Chris for the use as the notes they used didn’t add up to actually paying him. His record company, however, thought it was the perfect time to release the song as a single making it the last top 10 Christopher Cross song. Thought it was interesting and this dang song has been haunting me ever since I heard him sing it live.
Huh! I was 13 during the summer that everyone watched Luke and Laura on General Hospital. My stepsister and I watched too (and then I gave up soaps forever). I never realized Christopher Cross hadn’t written the song especially for them.
Keith and Anita never married.Memo is a rarely heard song, but is in my phone’s song library.
Ah, I misremembered. Confused her with Patti Hansen, his later (and still) wife.
Today “Forever” by Kenny Loggins came on my Pandora feed. I hadn’t heard the song in decades and completely forgot about it. The riff sounds a bit like Aerosmith’s “Angel,” which came out three years after “Forever.”
I heard Doctor’s Orders by Carol Douglas on the 70s channel today. Can’t say I recall it, but it might be a trip down memory lane for someone.
A song with a line that 10cc and The Lovin’ Spoonful would appreciate for it’s more subtle meaning.
