Listenin' To The Radio
There’s not a lot I can say about Adam Sandler that most of you don’t already know.
He was born on September 9th, 1966 in Brooklyn, NY.
He started his stand-up career at the age of 17.
He graduated from NYU with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in 1991.
During his freshman year in college he had a recurring role on The Cosby Show as one of Theo’s friends.
He was “discovered” by Dennis Miller who then recommended him to Lorne Michaels who heads the whole Saturday Night Live shebang.
He was a feature player on SNL from 1991-1995.
He has appeared or starred in 25 movies to date. He has one movie in post production and another filming which will bring the total to 27.
Blah Blah Blah…….
Most everyone also knows that Adam Sandler has released several albums. While the majority of the pieces on these albums basically suck balls, there are a few real gems thrown in too.
The song I chose for today is called “Listenin’ To The Radio” and was on the album What’s Your Name?. This is, in my opinion, his best album to date. It contains the songs “Lonesome Kicker”, “Listenin’ To The Radio”, “Red Hooded Sweatshirt”, and “Bad Boyfriend.” While each of these songs does contain a comedic element, they are truly legitimate songs.
“Listenin” To The Radio” is a song about all of the girls you hear about in songs on the radio. It’s very well put together.
Lyrics:
Some other songs from Adam Sandler that are worth giving a listen to are:
Crazy Love
Lunchlady Land
Ode To My Car
Sweet Beatrice
Dip Doodle
Pickin’ Daisies
What The Hell Happened To Me
Steve Polychronopolous
Personally I would skip all of the Excited Southerner and High School Beating skits. They are pretty much crap.

Lyrics:
Where's my Peggy Sue?
I could use a Rosalita
If there's a Long Tall Sally out there
I'm dyin' to meet her
Why can't I hear Beth callin' me?
Why can't I be the one to make Sara smile?
I wish I was arm in arm with Jean genie
Walkin' down the aisle
Oh yeah, all right
But I got no Mary Jane
There's no Sloopy or Dancin' Queen
I'm just a fool in the rain
Waitin' on my Billie Jean
I want an Angie, a Mandy, a Candy-O
A devil in a dress of blue
A Rosanna, Diana, a sweet Caroline
I'd even take a Run-Around Sue
Oh yeah, all right
Well, I never got to scream for a Layla
I never saw Mary-Anne walkin' away
I never danced on the sand with a Rio
Or woke up with a Maggie May
Dialed 867-5309
But there was no Jenny Jenny
Oh, why can't I get myself a brown-eyed girl
When Willie Nelson loved so many?
And why does Jack have Diane?
And why does Billy Joe have Bobbie Sue?
And everybody had Roxanne
Except you-know-who
I want an Angie, a Mandy, a Candy-O
A devil in a dress of blue
A Rosanna, Diana, a sweet Caroline
I'd even take a Run-Around Sue
Well I'd take any ol' Suzy Q
I got no reason to be picky
She can be a Goody-Goody-Two-Shoes
Or she can be my Darling Nikki
Oh, Brandy would be such a fine girl
And so would the sweet Judy Blue
I guess I sound just like that other fella
'Cause you know I wish I had Jessie's girl too
Oh yeah, all right
Well, I'd die for a kiss from Allison
Even though I know she'd break my heart
Or give me a Lo-lo-lo-lola
Minus the extra part
I want an Angie, a Mandy, a Candy-O
A devil in a dress of blue
A Rosanna, Diana, a sweet Caroline
I'd even take a Run-Around Sue
You know I'd even take a Run-Around Sue
Well, I'd even take a Run-Around Sue
Oh yeah, all right
