Sisters of Mercy, This Corrosion:
Funny that my buddy Jim was at Disneyland in the 80's and he runs into some of these guys and spent the day with them going back and forth between POTC and Haunted Mansion and ended the day on the kiddy cars.

Lyrics THE BREAKUP SONG (They Don't Write 'Em ) - Greg Kihn Band

We had broken up for good just an hour before,
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.
And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.
And then the band slowed the tempo, and the music gets you down.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.
It was the same old song, with a melancholy sound.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

They don't write 'em like that anymore.
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.

Now you're talking! HR was the only guy I have ever seen to do a back flip while singing and not skip a word. This song was also on one of the greatest comps ever, "let them eat Jellybeans"

I know all the words, but still can't keep up.

Here is some local boys done good:

‪Red Rockers - "Guns of Revolution"‬‏ - YouTube

The singer started cowboy mouth. I am trying to get them back together to promote my book. Fingers crossed it happens!

my friends used to cover this and sing "Pat Roig"

‪The Vandals - The Legend of Pat Brown‬‏ - YouTube

‪D.I. - Suburbia Sessions 1983 - Richard Hung Himself (Part 5)‬‏ - YouTube
