I danced to this one in a recital in 4th grade. Awesome song and Top Gun is still an excellent movie.

I didn’t get any quizzes for about 4 days, which broke my 2week streak. This happened to me before after 168 days. I truly believe it’s because I’ve never spent any money at the store. I’ve put them on my Facebook twice, too. I got cut this last time when I ranked in the 400’s. You have to spend money to do well even though it’s supposedly free.

Berlin used to be a touring band prior to going to LA. We used to follow them around Edmonton, Alberta, when they played there. I always thought it a shame they split up. Berlin had a fabulous sound
