Ten Songs on Steve (106.1-Roanoke,Va): In Prime Time

We took notes last night from during the 8:00-9:00 p.m. hour last night and we jotted down the first ten songs played by Steve-FM (106.1-Roanoke, Va.) which is a variety mix radio station, which means you can hear a song from Peter Gabriel and then Taylor Swift?!!!

Our images above are in reference to 1) Song #9, which is Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl" featured Christie Brinkley (pict. top), Joel's love interest at the time, in the music video; 2) Judy Garland and "The Wizard of Oz" film still is in homage to Song #1; and 3) the Kangaroos are, of course, in reference to Song #2:

1. Home Sweet Home. Motley Crue. 1985.

2. Down Under. Men at Work. 1981.

Quote of the Week- Judy Garland

To celebrate my mother Lila Sullivan's 70th birthday, which is tomorrow, I am going to quote the late Judy Garland since her most famous film "The Wizard of Oz" came out in 1939, the same year my mom was born in Florence, SC.

While researching this piece, I found out there is a Judy Garland Museum which is located at her birth home in Grand Rapids, Minn. We hope the weather there is nice than it is here in Roanoke, Va., as we are not used to two feet of snow! And, we can only imagine what it's like in Judy Garland's hometown.

Here's the quote which seems fitting since "Guiding Light" and "As the World Turns" have been canceled this year (much to my surprise):

"If you have to be in a soap opera try not to get the worst part."
