Intellectually I understand what she's saying, but emotionally, well, depriving me of bearded men singing about one-night stands in quavering tenor backed with strings would be like cutting out my heart. My wife, who imprinted instead on Phil Collins and Chicago 17, has a technical term for many of those hits: "car-sickness music." Fair enough. I can pin down more or less to the month when the same thing happened to me, because starting in early 1978, when Player's "Baby Come Back" was #1, all the hits were imprinted on my mind like Konrad Lorenz on a baby goose. I was wondering when and if it would happen-do the kids even listen to the radio anymore?-but it did, thanks to middle school and, specifically, to his bus driver, who plays Movin' 92.5: All the Hits!, whose website confirms that they really do play the same songs every hour.
My 12-year-old son has discovered the radio.
