Friday Foolishness: Ah Leah
A song that’s been one of my favorites since I first heard it is Ah Leah, by Donnie Iris. Fortunately, I didn’t get to see music videos back in the 1980s, so I didn’t know the guy singing was a dead ringer for Eugene Levy selling Clark Griswold the Family Truckster. (And he’s even shirtless for a couple terrifying seconds. I can’t imagine why he didn’t have a huge career after that.) I just knew the song was loaded with infectious energy — it screams, as we might have said back then. It’s the perfect driving song, except it’s not possible to stay under the speed limit while it’s cranked up.

Yeah, shirtless was a bad idea! But it’s a cool song though. I don’t remember it, but it’s sooo 80s, I feel like I do.

You just had to go and ruin a perfectly good song by posting that god-awful video… That is one UGLY dude.
