Surprised you didn't do mini thin. Methlabs and moonshine
Around the time 17 by winger came out, the Nathanial J and Shane Seyer cases had come out. Those cases said adult women over 30 can get consent and child support from boys aged 12-14.
But yeah, a woman old enough to drive, have a job, and (if she were male) enlist in the military is just a babeh.
I have an interesting story about Winger.
I saw them live in 2019, and I was wondering the whole time if and how they were going to be playing "Seventeen" at all. I figured they would considering it's their most popular song, but given how people today tend to react to the lyrics, something was probably going to be done differently. When they got to it in their set, they changed the final chorus to be "She's only 47". You may be asking "Why 47?" Well, it was the 30 year anniversary of their debut, and 17 + 30 = 47. Most genius workaround ever.
She’s only 47.....Daddy says she’s too old but she’s young enough for meeee.
She's only 47 had menopause and don't wrap my thing at all.
@@86LukeMI can relate
Who cares about Seventeen? It’s just a song, and like you said, it was a different time.
@@ryanbrown3004 its gross.
Macklemore winning from Kendrick at the Grammys will definitely go down in history as the moment rap peaked
Factz
Absolutely
18:26 the guy named him self after gas station, caffeine pills. That kind of sums it all up.- talking about minithin. I didn’t see I was replying w
Peaked? I hope you're joking
When rap died
I love how they use their women as tarp weights. Is that the ultimate redneck compliment? "You've got a perfect tarp weight body. Not too skinny so the tarp moves but not too fat to take up too much sliding space."
"Come here from yonder that drainage ditch, this tarp aint gonna secure itself. We gonna make you a star. Bitch."
I will say that this songs and songs like it are cringe af, but using things like tarps as slip n slides is the kind of cool ingenuity that poor country people have. Poor city people have it too, there’s just not usually the land space to set something like that up. But things that are often considered “redneck” are really very fun and inventive.
The anti trump rap has the same flow as the rapping preacher 😂
And the intro sounds like someone covering Institutionalized in the basement while trying not to wake up their mom
Can’t wait for Trump to win in 2024
Yep, same vibe as the Jesus Christ is my nword song.
I literally thought of that exact same song when it came on! 😂
Would that be considered it’s own thing?
Drug Dealer Friend isn't cringe, it's a masterpiece. Truly art in it's purest form 🧐
It's a song about Stag/Vixen (i.e. a dominant guy who controls who his female partner has sex with) couples. He basically pimps her out without monetary compensation.
@@luke_cohen1no it’s emmure
@@Twittchyy Really? I thought it was Patrick Star working at the Krusty Krab.
@@luke_cohen1😂
Song is about every girl that brags about getting their weed for free Lmao.
Update: Psycho Synner disbanded earlier this year and Jeremy started a self-proclaimed “death metal” project and somehow managed to get Will Ramos and Corpsegrinder on feats.
I wonder what would Finn say about that thing…
Thank God they disbanded, but Will and George are involved? I'm cautiously optimistic
@@thewheelistaken In hindsight, I probably shouldn’t have used the word “disbanded” since 3 out of the four members of Psycho Synner are in this band as well. Also the music is a little better, but still pretty stock and uninspired and Jeremy still can’t growl for shit, so he uses the same “whisper into an overdriven mic” technique he used with Psycho Synner and it’s especially embarrassing when you put someone like Will on the track next to him.
This is my opinion, feel free to make your own.
You're right, Macklemore definitely has the Ben and Jerry's mentality. "I'm going to be the contrarian on July 4th and lecture everyone about 'stolen land' but I'm not giving my mansion to my local native tribe and moving back to Europe" really feels similar to Macklemore's fawning schtick.
What the ever loving f… did Macklemore do _now_ ? 🙄🤦♂️
@@sawtooth808nothing just an internet nerd wanting to sound edgy because it's cool to hate on Macklemore.
It's all virtue signaling.
Why would it be necessary for him to sell his mansion to a tribe and move back to Europe?? What problem does that solve exactly?? You realize other countries that aren’t America constantly acknowledge the land they have stolen as a way to remember history right? Acknowledging that we live on stolen land isn’t contrarian at all, it’s something we have to acknowledge and come to terms that a lot of the privileges we enjoy today happened as a result of a cruelty and violence. I don’t see how this is controversial at all.
Macklemore donated all the proceeds from one of his songs to our youth group who was working to fight the expansion of a juvenile facility in seattle. Ik white ppl love to chastise other white ppl for being performatively liberal, but y’all should be aware how slippery of a slope it is.
-a regular person who works and does not know very much about the internet
The Alex Skolnick thing just reminds me of Lars Ulrich's dad "I'd say delete that."
To me I always heard that Emmure line as a hateful one. Not a cvck one. Like something someone would say on the verge of killing this girl. Idk the full song but I always assumed she cheated and he was about to lose his mind violently so.
I was just going to comment the same. Like, threatening. Like horror movie shit.
I just think about all the girls I’d see on my timeline in college that bragged about getting free weed…hmmm I wonder why…Drug dealer “friend” eh?
You found it hard to believe that people in the entertainment industry signed off on a song about lusting after a 17 year old.
You precious precious child!
Tons of dudes retire and lose their minds watching fox or msnbc. My advice - don’t retire from something- retire TO something- like raise a garden.
You’ll live longer
The King of Creepy Lyrics is still Chuck Berry,
... because in his song "Memphis Tennessee" he is singing a love song to his girlfriend (Marie) that he has been parted from, then at the end of the song he says "Marie is only six years old!".
Then in his song "Sweet Little Rock and Roller" he opens the song with "At nine years old and sweet as she can be!"
These lyrics were written a few years before Chuck was arrested for "Transporting a minor over state lines for immoral purposes" that he claimed was "His Wife".
@UCscFTajJmvPU6KqeO8t6e1A
I mean all of those guys from Bowie, to Zeppelin, to Aerosmith, to The Stones, were all passing around Lori Maddox and her "Baby Groupies" amongst themselves on a daily basis back in the day.
They are all Great Musicians, love their music, but you wouldn't want them near you or anyone you cared about.
Hell, Bowie is beloved, but Lori Maddox has said that she lost her V-Card at 13-14 to David Bowie when he was in his late 20's!
All of these "Legends" would make your skin crawl if you were in their presence.
The same thing is happening today with all of these "Big Names" the only difference is, they aren't dumb enough now to talk publicly about it in Rolling Stone magazine, or have their pictures taken together.
They threw Gary Glitter under the bus, when the reality is they were all doing it, and he just got exposed and they couldn't hide it anymore.
Memphis Tennessee is about a man and his daughter, not g/f.
@@SpeedBoostGary Glitter is a different case. The dude got kicked out of Thailand for having relations with underage boys. How bad do you have to be for Thailand to go “GTFOH, just leave”
@@sawtooth808
They all have the same appetite, Glitter just lost the protection that the rest are getting.
Bowie taking a 14 year olds "V-Card" is no different than what Glitter is doing.
They are all PDFILES.
@@SpeedBoostyeah I've watched videos about the baby groupies and it's so messed up how common that all was, and half these girls had their parents signing off on it too 😮
Hard to imagine the parents of Stewart, the Butters of the Beavis & Butthead universe, permitted him to listen to Winger with songs like this
Like their son the parents were delusional. They thought stewart made some friends. Beavis and butthead were there to raid the fridge and torture stewart.
Well, Stewart was probably 17 years old at the time. 🤷🏻♂️
@@solearesoul actually he was probably 13. Mike judge said the character was meant to be a character younger than Beavis and butthead who they can boss around, like how those two behave around Todd…yeah I know a little too much about the show
yeah, i was on the younger side of 17 when the Winger song came out. you're crazy if you think most parents are pouring over the lyrics of the songs their kids are listening to. it requires you to sit around and listen to music you don't like or read a pile of song lyrics while you have better things to do with your life, like work and pay bills.
Psycho Synner sounds like Ghost minus the talent :)
Yeah, I can see that comparison 😆
Oof 😖
Joey Sturgis recorded some absolutely killer albums. Bunch of the best Christ-core stuff. Dudes a legend.
"She was just 17, and you know what I mean. The way she looked was well beyond compare. "
- The Beatles
My great Aunt's favorite band was Psycho Synner. I can't help but think of her while breeding in the graveyard.
That’s some first rate political commentary, Finn. Good stuff man
Thoroughly agree
My body has never been so tense from cringing, that testament one has set the bar, I don't think anything can top that
Kids that listen to classic rock and hair metal exclusively: “what the hell man I was born in the wrong generation”
The generation: (“Seventeen” by Winger)
I see “Seventeen” and raise you “Spandex enormity” by MOD
@@sawtooth808 nahhh bruh I just looked it up wtf 💀
Also, next time Finn needs to include the hit Nickelback song S.E.X. It’s 100% respectful of women and definitely not creepy
Now this. This right here. Grade A++ peak Finn content. Bless you my son.
Agreed!
Winger isn't just the band name, it's the lead singer/bassist's name - Kip Winger. It's his project, and they just released a new album a little bit ago that is completely different. He's the on-off bass player for Alice Cooper.
Drummer from ffdp had to leave because the fanbase of the band was too red state to understand his uncontrollable urges to breed upon a casket.
Macklemore at one point was rapper OTY. God bless us all and run it back‼️
The Alex Skolnick one hurts considering how genuinely talented he is as a musician.
Alex is one of my guitar idols. It was so painful seeing him do that terrible rap song lol.
Trump broke his brain. Along with millions of other brains. I think it’s hilarious and it makes me want to vote for trump even more
Being from WV, you said nothing offensive, and everything you said was actually pretty accurate 😅. Just know we CAN make better music than this😂.
Aye me too man🤣🤣
Wv produced hasil Adkins, little Jimmy Dickens, karma to burn. Hasil is a goddamn legend to rock and roll. The Cramps were influenced by him and covered the classic "she said"
Say what you want about Winger or Seventeen, but man that is a slick ass riff, took weeks for me to get it right.
Atleast it's better than Jailbait by Ted Nugent lol
@@gx1tar1er Yeah, everyone goes after his politics but man everyone misses out on the cringe mines of his actual output lol.
It’s not that hard I can play it with one finger
@@gx1tar1er holy shit I forgot about that song I remember my mom showing it to me years ago to explain what 'jailbait' entails and how gross it is LOL
@@gx1tar1er Fun fact: Ted Nugent had a relationship with Courtney Love…When Courtney Love was 12 (confirmed)
Love your videos Finn. Have you ever considered doing a best-of list for comedians? Or maybe specific stand up specials? There would certainly be a lot of social commentary opportunities. Anyways, keep up the good work. Hope your baby is doing well
Tom segura
Yeah, the Winger entry is pretty great musically. Respect.
The real winner here is Kip Winger’s orthodontist.
Haven't read every comment but in Winger's defense (not a phrase I ever thought I'd write, never been a fan but they are great players) - The Beatles "I Saw Her Standing There" starts off with "She was just 17 if you know what I mean:" Joan Jett flipped it and talked about a 17-year-old standing by the record machine in "I Love Rock 'n' Roll;" you mentioned KISS but missed "Goin' Blind" - "I'm 93, you're 16" and worst of all Benny Mardones "Into the Night" (you should do a whole thing on this video) "She's just 16-years-old, leave her alone, they say..." Chuck Berry had "Sweet Little Sixteen," the Rolling Stones said "I can see that you're 15-years-old, no I don't want your ID" - Aerosmith "Walk This Way" " Met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder...so I took a big chance at the high school dance with a missy who was ready to play" - there are so many more examples and it's all cringe but Winger is hardly the worst offender in the category.
@@ghost_mall wow, I've covered that song a million times in wedding bands but never paid attention to the lyrics, they're indeed uncomfortable; which reminded me of another song I've played to death, "My Sharona" - "Such a dirty mind / always get it up for the touch of the younger kind."
Also back in those days we 17 year olds were much more mature than 17 year olds today. When I was 17 I was more responsible than middle aged men today.
1:00 Funny, I said the same thing to friends once who'd never heard of this song. Was saying how 80s hair metal is fun to play on guitar and this song is one of my favorites to play but unfortunately never will be able to publicly. Why couldn't they call it Eighteen at least?
because, in terms of how words sound, "seventeen" is very pleasant, while "eighteen" is not. people love the word "seven".
In the 80s, Rick Springfield dated 15 year old Linda Blair, Nikki Sixx, dated a 16 yo catholic schoolgirl, and every chick in my high school dated a 25 year old with a Trans Am
New Zealand is the only country that tries to make up for their treatment of indigenous people in a way that isn't completely cringe.
Also the confederate flag imagery for your song about being from a state that was formed for the sole purpose of joining the Union in the Civil War is amazing.
Hey Finn! I tried rejoining your discord as I saw I wasn’t on it anymore and went to rejoin it but it now shows and tells me that it’s an invalid link can you get that fixed by any chance?
Quitting 5 Finger Deathpunch to do literally anything else is a good decision and I support it
When someone in chat said “Statutory-Core” for Winger’s song I spit my modelo all over my wings. Guy owes me a beer and some hot wings immediately 😂😭😭
9 albums in 1 year...about sex in the graveyard I'm ded
Alex skolnick’s sister was a substitute teacher in my high school geometry class. I was wearing a testament and slayer tour shirt and it made her so stocked
Seventeen by Winger is such a fucking dope song. That riff fucking wrecks it.
“I have to breed you.” Would be flattering, but also creepy AF. Idk how else to explain it. 😂
"Meth rapper from West Virginia" creates a much different vibe and impression than "Country Roads."
Winger confused me with the song Tin Soldier. It's pretty epic.
Spaceman by Babylon Zoo for the next video. Can't believe it was a hit back in the day, let alone such a big one. Number one in the UK . The most coked-out, fucked up, tuneless pop hit of the 90's. It's almost impressively dumb. "Spaceman, I always wanted you to go into space, man."
When I was a production & promotions assistant at a radio station, we were the sole sponsors of a Kansas and Winger show happening in town. I was told to collect the audio hooks of the "best" Winger songs for on air promo... and uh yeah... Seventeen was the "best" they had.
Surprised Finn didn't mention legendary "All in the family" and "Children of the Korn ". Wanna admire his comments on these lyrics so bad lol
It took decades, but CotK has grown on me a bit.
Awesome fun song
Crazy how mainstream rock went from winger to nirvana in only 2 years
Im so glad to hear that Finn is not a luney toon left wing nutcase.
Im neither right or left winged, and i hate both sides of politics.
But i got the impression that finn aligned woth all things liberal and i was weong about that. Im glad Finn has his own ideas and doesnt cater to their or anyones narrative
Go look at what people on twitter say about me if you think I’m a leftist lol
That's funny cause many liberals think Finn is a racist alt right conservative, and many of his wife's youtube videos have fairly right wing topics
@@ghost_mall I don’t think he really fully aligns with either but will accept elements of both that he agrees with, and calls out both when he disagrees
@@chadhenry961It's crazy that when you're somewhere in the middle, people on both sides will call you either far-left or far-right depending on where they stand. Politics has become so "my way or the highway " tribal that it's ruining things.
My family were early settlers in the area of West Virginia, and I will always thank my grandfather for moving out of there.
Finn McCringy is back!
😂
Years after the Song "seventeen" was made a reporter asked kip winger what they were thinking when they made it.
He said, in the state they were from, 17 was the legal age, so they thought it was true everywhere. Now comma when they play the song, They have changed the lyrics to "nineteen"
nothing sus about going with whatever the lowest legal age is
You’re so right! Tons of talent in this band. As a late 40’s
guy, I can say that this was in my collection 😆
Ahh Winger. Actually an extremely talented band. In the hair band arena they're on par with bands like Extreme and Mr. Big. Just a different animal than the Great White, Warrant, and things like that.
With that. Madalaine was actually the lead single. Seventeen was second. Maybe Madalaine was only 17....and third was Headed For A Heartbreak. There may be a story there.
Funny bit, at least funny to me:
In 1988, when the s/t album was released, Kip Winger was 27, Reb Beach was 25.
In 1977 when KISS - Love Gun (Christine Sixteen) was released Gene Simmons was 28.
In 1983 when Stray Cats - Rant n'Rave With The Stray Cats (She's Sexy +17) was released Brian Setzer was 24 years old.
1989, Extreme - s/t (Little Girls) Gary Cherone was 28, Nuno Bettencourt was 23
1958, Chuck Berry - Sweet Little Sixtenn, Chuck Berry was 32
1981, Oingo Boingo - Only A Lad (Little Girls) Danny Elfman was 28
1985, Red Hot Chili Peppers - Freaky Styley (Catholic School Girls Rule), Anthony Kiedis was 23, Flea was 23, Jack Sherman was 29, Cliff Martinez was 31
1981, Ted Nugent - Intensities in 10 Cities (Jailbait), Ted Nugent was 33
You're Sixteen was written by the Sherman Brothers (Robert and Richard, lots of Disney songs during the Jungle Book, Robin Hood, Aristocats years). Robert Sherman was 35 and Richard Sherman was 32 in 1960. Johnny Burnette was 26 when he recorded it in 1960. 1973 Ringo Starr was 33 when he recorded it.
There are tons more. I'm not trying to make excuses for anything, but it was a different world..... The Vandals - Fourteen always stood out for going the other way with it...
This is why I love your videos Finn. I saw Winger live and it was a great show Kip Winger has an amazing voice and you're right that man is talented as hell. I love this song When it came out I was 20 now as a grandfather it absolutely hits a little different lol. But how do we know that girl was it 17 and the boy was 18 am I trying to make this work hell yes because it's cringe as shit.😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 Kip Winger awesome
Yeah it's dumb. If someone is 17 and 10 months old and there's a nineteen-year-old guy or twenty-year-old guy it's fine. 25 is too old for a seventeen-year-old. Half your age plus seven is the youngest girl you can go with.
Kings of leon have a song where the chorus is "oh she's only seventeen" and that was just 15 years ago or so.
Darling NIKKI by Prince
I love his music but feel conflicted by the Lyrics
But what exactly was Nikki doing in a hotel lobby? (Rhetorical question)
"I wanna breed you." Added to the Tinder profile, (for science and data). 😂
Alex Skolnik's song reminds me of any Rollins Band song before the breakdown
'To all the southern ladies that take their smacks with a smile'. Horrible.
Meanwhile in Europe, where the UK is the most conservative with an age of consent at 16, the song by Winger is just considered corny.
And yeah, "wanna go breed in the bathroom?", is heard in clubs across the globe.
7:40 this reminds me of a environmental rap song we'd have to learn in elementary school
Winger actually blamed Beavis And Butthead for their lack of popularity.
@@ghost_mall a couple months ago I saw a video about Kip Winger being mad that they don't get any recognition, or something to that effect. I replied "in the #metoo era. The guy who wrote She's Only 17, should be glad that he's remained invisible!
I like Sexy and 17 by the Stray Cats. Also, Code Blue by TSOL is pretty good. Are those cringe? What about I love Rock and Roll? I think every rap song about cough syrup is kinda cringe. I mean, all of Slayers' satanic lyrics are cringe, but maybe I just like cringe music.
Nah, "code blue" is hilarious.
The Seventeen solos mitigate the absolute ear-sore that is the lyrics, I just act like they don't exist and enjoy the sick shredding. It's so fuckin good lmfaoooo, the lyrics are just absolutely unhinged
Maybe Macklemore should find a minority to give his illicit fortune to.
Testament's a great band, but holy god. That was so cringe my bones shuttered.
Kip Winger's new album is actually titled 'Seven". Said screw the haters, I'm going lower!
There are two tragedies in music history. Kendrick losing a Grammy to Macklemore, and Fantano giving DAMN a 7.
Fantanos ratings don't matter 😂
@@sentientcardboarddumpster7900 that's the joke, if you can't understand how much we shitpost on this channel
@JohnEvans-xg2bp admittedly I'm just starting to come around to the way Finn does it. He had me cracking up in this video more than most previous ones. I dont think it's a change on his end, it's just I kinda get it now. Admittedly, I've also been had by actual shit posting groups cuz I'm dumb sometimes lol
Pretty amazing how the cringe just got worse and worse with each consecutive song... I really didn't think it was possible, but you did it!
“At this Walmart we acknowledge we are on the land of the…”
macklemore is the kinda guy that puts "the ancestral lands of the ojibwe, chippewa, and salteaux tribes known in colonizer communities as Vancouver" for this location in his bio
Don't forget motley crue had a song about a 15 year old from the girls girls girls album
Those emmure lyrics are uttered every time a couple of tweakers run out of money for crunk, that's why he said it
For Drug Dealer Friend, it can be noted that Frankie was dating Hitomi Tanaka around this era. Not sure if that timeline coincides with this but eh! would make sense of the lyrics.
Fight for your right to party is the TOP cringiest song for me! A close second is Girls from LTI (most of LTI is cringy as hell). Love Beastie Boys, but those two songs are awful.
Finn made damn sure that "City b*tch"-video now has 43.000.001 views.
Rock music from the 50s to the 80s had a lot of songs about under age girls. Some of the musicians even married girls under 18.
That shit is wild.
Elvis Presley Jerry Lee Lewis have entered the chat
@@sawtooth808and Jimmy Page
I feel these guys make songs about how they were young boys being with young girls. It's creepy being a grown man singing it as opposed to being a teenager. "Experienced Cringers" I can't! 😂😂😂
I could see singing the “Seventeen” song back in the 80’s if Kip was still in his early 20’s, but dude was 35 by that time. What’s funny is even Wikipedia says the lyrics on the album were typical for age and genre. The 80’s were the Wild West in music.
Also, after losing to Macklemore, Metallica told him, “I know those feels bro.”…………probably.
Nah. I started talking to a girl when I was 21 and when I found out she was 17 I was like nope. She later got a bf who was also 21. All these years later, tons of girls have accusations against him. Being early 20s and being okay with getting with 17 year olds is a sign you're okay preying on the young.
The Bolivian marching powder flowed freely in the offices of record execs in the 80’s
Ah yeah? Have you ever heard about the Andrew sisters and their song rum and coca-cola? 1944
No Atilla? Are you even about that life?
I liked this comment for the pun
Anytime you roll a “17” in my DnD group we call it a winger.
Such a shame about Seventeen's subject matter, cause the music is actually pretty good. I usually view lyrics as the cherry on top of a music sundae. So the lyrics won't necessarily break a song for me as long as the music is good, but in this case it kinda did
Finn you need to license that thumbnail pic,that face would be perfect for a hardcore punk or metal bands album artwork
Oh God the first song being seventeen is hilarious because I cringe everytime I hear it because it sounds so fucking good despite it's lyrics 😭 I was about to bring up Christine sixteen but you brought it up for me
Also we in Ohio nearby WV act almost the same. And that was a creek, probably full of shit. My towns creek was horrifically gross and my parents told me never go in with an open cut but we still swam in it and crawled through the sewers for fun
If you know about West Virginia's history, it's extremely ironic that the woman was wearing a Confederate flag bikini lol
Great video love the content, really funny keep up the great work
5:45 The poly community graciously accepts this as our anthem thank you Finn
I just played it for my meta and they said it's a banger
I'm single. I ask women all the time if they want to breed. Maybe that's why I'm single but my only goal is to further the human race 😂
as bad as the Winger song is, isn't 17 the age that Finn met his current wife?
"In case somebody dies behind a bullet that flies out of the 9
Takes another child's life on sight"
I'm assuming Mr. Mackerel is referencing rampant gang violence that often results in the deaths of innocent children behind the walls of their own homes.
I hate that Macklemore is always shown on tv at every Seattle sporting event. We have other celebrities we could use.
My guy, I have the exact same opinion as you regarding the land use acknowledgment . I work for the government and before meetings we do the land acknowledgment it’s like….no shit, we work for the people who stole the land.
I live in WV and I can confirm that the last music video is a pretty accurate representation of how a lot of people party out here... and I can't lie, I also drive a lifted truck. 🤣
Talk about stretching. My dad bod just got done doing the stretch. Ready for the segment. Thank you Finn 🤙🔥
Winger is an interesting case. They’re world class musicians that played glam metal in order to find an audience as glam was happening at that time. The thing is that the songs were really bad and the glam aesthetic that they steered into was on its last stretch before going out of style. Unlike Def Leppard who had some early cred, there wasn’t anything to go back to. Winger came in on the glam wave and wiped out at the end. It’s a similar issue with the prog guys who can play, don’t have any good songs, and still want the love. Winger seemed confused as to why darts were being thrown at them in a Metallica video…but but we can play better than them…there’s more to songwriting and entertainment boys. Doing ballet, singing about statcb, spandex, and aquanet was fine in the late 80’s, but it ended there and there was no off-ramp.
Shout out to @norgbeard for the MSNBC Core comment during Alex's song! That's some good stuff right there.
the aggressive curve of the hat was always popular for the country NASCAR folks at my old HS back in the day
One fact that I love about mini thin, is that he's actually from the far north of West Virginia, like 20 miles from Pittsburgh. Hell, he's closer to Toronto than anywhere in the actual deep south
i WAS IN hs WHEN Wingers song came out. It wasnt even mentioned. (Loving a seventeen year old girl) Seventeen to me even today is one of those each girl is different things. Granted Im talking about staying in the same age bracket. Like a 24yr old with some 17 yr olds isnt a big deal. Colorado used to have a 4 year policy . If the older person was within 4 years of the younger person. Dont know ifits still that way or not...
