Was torn between this one and Sweet Home Alabama, but as Neil Young has already been mentioned is a song mentioned ...

6. The Pursuit of Happiness - I'm an Adult Now

I disagree with this one. While it does mention parents ("Well I don't hate my parents / I don't get drunk just to spite them / I've got my own reasons to drink now / Think I'll call my dad up and invite him"), the theme of the song isn't his parents, it's the way he's become an adult (I don't think parents are mentioned anywhere else in the song).

Aloha,

Brad

Fine. Deleting post now.

[AD]

perhaps my theme was a bit too stringent

[SmoothedShredder]

I don't think it's you... but that really pissed me off. Like holy fack, this is a game?! right?! How ABOUT does ABOUT have to be?... not like the song was instrumental about Rivers (which incidentally I could concieve as being the parents of the ocean)... Talk about contributing to the uptight vibe of the board! My time would be better off concieving of an alternative way to score baseball.

[SmoothedShredder]

Sorry about this in advance! I gotta go!
