    I cannot help but think of....

    That's true for most of us who were music lovers in the 1980s.

    I'd say it's a bigger audience than that, since it's also true of those
    who've discovered it in the years since.

    It's so strong, and so well-known, that I'd like to have a
    "November"-themed Dancehall just to feature it. The problem with that is
    that "NR" is the only November song that comes to mind.

    I thought I'd get that in so that you and Zod can kick the idea of t
    "November" topic around for a week, and decide whether there's enough to
    try it.

    Perhaps if we stretch it to a "early Winter" theme?

    Not sure how many specifically "November" songs there are, but now I want to find out.

    Speaking of remembering, I remember that you posted that very song in
    last week's Dancehall, "Remembering". Still, we've had other songs go in
    twice, and as long as it's in a different context, why not? (I think
    I'll look for songs about Nov. 5.)

    So I decided to go with the topic. I haven't used this or GnR's one, but
    I've opened the "November" Dancehall on RAP and facebook.


    Still, we've had other songs go in q
