Oh Sherrie

What could be a finer way to spend an evening than with a martini and overwrought 1984 classic Oh Sherrie by ex-Journey frontman Steve Perry? This clip has everything:

  1. a romance with a girl in a floaty white dress
  2. trendy haircuts and eyewear
  3. rebellion against the man

    Oh, do go for the Steve Perry look. You could cut quite a dashing figure. In a Steve Perry 80s kind of way…

    I like that blog link you forwarded – I can just imagine those boys obsessively cutting down that tree. You’ve got to admire their enthusiasm.
