2. I think "Space Cowboy" was the title
of the one you call "Pompatus".

Either way, it sucked.

3. It is my pleasure...
... to vote "ALL", because - well, there are just no words for Steve Miller. Except that he should have to have a license to be in the same studio as a synthesizer.

20. Exactly!
I swear, some of those songs were recorded while cycling through every sound a synth could produce.

5. Abracadabra
You make me hot, you make me sigh
You make me laugh, you make me cry
Keep me burnin’ for your love
With the touch of a velvet glove

Abra-abra-cadabra
I want to reach out and grab ya
Abra-abra-cadabra
Abracadabra


I mean, really.

16. Fly Like An Eagle
I saw an interview with Steve Miller once, now I wasn't expecting the guy to be an Einstein, but he's almost as stupid as Bush!

17. no it wasnt about the lyrics at the time.
it was the weird music i guess. there was a thing about the steve miller band. they were them. weird. different and steve miller.

lyrics were kind of strange at the time lets look at another favorite of mine Jethro Tull, love them to death but strange little devils.

15. Jungle Love, hello....
It's stinkorama.

But, I love Fly Like an Eagle (like Seal's remake a bit more) and whatever that song is, the Joker, some people call him Maurice....

My gym teacher used to play his greatest hits during our warmups.
