Walter Egan pioneered Yoda-speak ("With you, I'm not Shy") and this song (however awful) totally sticks in your mind, doesn't it?

This blog is diabolical! Magnet and Steel has been churning thru my brain since I read this; I didn't dare watch the clip. Now I'm recalling a magnet/fridge moment in Tastee. Stop! Please!
