Opening Lines to Songs 7/21/11 1979 (Edited 07/21/11 06:24AM by icfeet)
Back to 1979...disco was dying, new wave and punk coming in...my high school football team played at Giants Stadium.....I give the opening lines to some of the top 100 songs, you guess artist and title.  Have fun! (Bonus 6th question today).
