10/10. One of the few songs from the 1980s I liked when it first came out. I liked it so much I bought a cassette single and played it constantly. I still have it on a 1980s compilation I made awhile back.
10/10, great song. Listen to it once, you can get an online History Degree, from the University of Phoenix.
4/10. Well I sure didn’t start the fire on this one.
3/10 Like Billy Joel but this song never did much for me

You got 5 out of 10
Fire? Buddy, you couldn't start a stopwatch with that score...

I remember that actor! Would you believe he lived long enough to be on Community? He was an old man, but still recognizable!
Even more surprising: H.M. Wyant, best remembered from The Howling Man, is STILL ALIVE and STILL ACTING!
Yep. He's 97. But his last credit was about 6 years ago, as shown on IMDB.

6/10. I had to figure out the ones I got right from the phrases and what seemed to belong with the rest.
