  6. "Hot Blooded" by Foreigner:
    "Well, I'm hot-blooded, check it and see
    I got a fever of a hundred and three
    Come on, baby, do you do more than dance?
    I'm hot-blooded, I'm hot-blooded"

    This is about a man in Strasbourg, Alsace slowly dying of the plague while imploring a woman nearby, the only human in sight, for water. Instead of helping the dying man, she kept dancing, even past the point where her shoes overfilled with blood.

    On this day in 1988, Cinderella released their second studio album, Long Cold Winter.

    The album pushed the band deeper into a bluesy, hard-rock direction and delivered some of their biggest tracks, including “Gypsy Road,” “Don’t Know What You Got (Till It’s Gone),” “Coming Home” and “The Last Mile.”

  11. Fools Gold by The Stone Roses is about Ian Brown's experiences doing the Duke of Edinburgh Award. He was a bright kid, but from a state comp, so when he had to do the camping/hiking/orienteering part of the award, all the other posh kids treated him like dirt. Fools Gold is his way of getting back at them publicly albeit in a lightly coded, opaque way.

    Takin' Care of Business - a song about using the restroom.

  13. “Hopelessly Devoted to You” is a strident yet hidden approval of religious extremism. Note the use of a kiddie pool and the photo of a closeted homosexual Scientologist.
