Yeah, we got trouble my friends,
Right here, I say, trouble right here in River City...

How soon we forget.  This 'role-model' talk is just the kind of thing that
made us gag when WE were younger.  Only then it was a different set of
musicians.

"How is a person like Madonna going to help an adolescent develop a balanced
character??" How is this question relevant? Do you believe that demon rock
and roll distorts the empty, pliable minds of today's youth? That teenage
girls would live up to Victorian standards of purity  except for the
"Material Girl" video? Have we time-warped back to 1963?
