    Gold star to Jay! Yep, this is about a man who, as a teenager, had a massive crush on a girl in his homeroom, a girl who was so perfect, sweet, and pure, he thought of her as angelic, and he felt he couldn't touch such a wholesome, innocent girl. She stayed that way in his head...until he saw her in that girly magazine. At first he's upset and confused, then comes the lyric, "Oh no, I can't deny it, oh yeah, I guess I gotta buy it (the magazine)". Now he's going to track her down, admit his crush, and take a shot with her.

I also still remember asking my Dad what a "centerfold" was, too. :) To his credit, he managed to keep a straight face and explain "When making magazines, they fold the paper, so that the center of the magazine is the centerfold... and... uh... well... some grown-up magazines have pictures of women in that centerfold." Miss you, Dad!! ❤

      @@pauld6967 Someday I'll tell you guys about the day my mom suddenly decided we needed to flip the mattress on my bed. Unfortunately, I had 3 Playboy Magazines stuffed between the mattress and the box spring, and there was no time to transfer them somewhere else in my room, so with her on one side of the bed, and me on the other, I preemptively flipped my end up first, so that her edge of my mattress slid along the top of the box spring towards me. So then I grabbed hold of the magazines & carefully maneuvered them across the top of the box spring, making sure the tilted mattress blocked her view.
      I'm telling you, that was a close one !! It was a maneuver you'd think you would only see in a movie.

    Always pulled me from my seat
    She was pure like snowflakes
    No one could ever stain
    The memory of my angel
    Could never cause me pain
    Years go by I'm lookin' through a girly magazine
    And there's my homeroom angel on the pages in-between
    My blood runs cold
    My memory has just been sold
    My angel is the centerfold
    Angel is the centerfold
    My blood runs cold
    My memory has just been sold
    Angel is the centerfold
    Slipped me notes under the desk
    While I was thinkin' about her dress
    I was shy I turned away
    Before she caught my eye
    I was shakin' in my shoes
    Whenever she flashed those baby-blues
    Something had a hold on me
    When angel passed close by
    Those soft and fuzzy sweaters
    Too magical to touch
    To see her in that negligee
    Is really just too much

    This is an amazing classic. You'll also love their song "Freeze Frame".
    Some other great storytelling songs are "In the Year 2525" by Zager & Evans, "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot, and "The Letter" by The Box Tops.

    My step brother Roy had somewhat the experience related in this song.Before he went to Vietnam in 1970,he was dating a young lady who had a tween-age sister who he never really thought much of.But in the summer of 1978 he opened up the latest Playboy magazine,turned to the centerfold and THERE SHE WAS (Janet Quist)!

    This is one of four standout songs by JGB. The other three are "Love Stinks" (funny but kind of not, especially viewed through the lens of adolescence), "Freeze Frame" (a banger with a hook every bit as big as the "na na's" in this one), and "Piss On The Wall" (angry and sullen, again made more poignant through the lens of adolescence). JGB's entire catalog is criminally underrated, though, imho.

    You've got to do their song off their Live album, "Musta Got Lost"!
    "Hold on this song has a little introduction to it It ain't supposed to be sad though you might feel it that way It's a song about desperation, Every now and then we do get desperate This is a song about L-O-V-E, And if you abuse it you're gonna lose it And if you lose it..."

    Andy & Alex say super nice things about you. They asked for their subscribers to suggest a song from other reaction channels and they got a heads up on THIS reaction. They asked for their subscribes who haven't checked you out to do so. Just thought you would like to know. I LOVE the idea of you guys cross promoting each other.

    I know people will want you to listen to Freeze Frame and Love Stinks, but the live version of Musta Got Lost w/intro is worth it for the intro alone. The song is also pretty good. 👍

    A Boston band that I grew up with as a teenager. They'd play in my hometown of Hull, Mass at a place called the Surf Ballroom. They were a great rock and blues band. I got to see them one last time at the House of Blues in Boston as a pre Grand Opening party. R.I.P. J. Geil.

    If you noticed he says a line "my memory has just been sold". I always took that to mean that his memory of her body (which should never be seen by someone else if they are going steady) has now been sold to the masses through the magazine. So if he's seen her body before she was a Centerfold.... then she wasn't "quite" the angel he sets her up to be. Lol.
