One Friday evenin'
What a feelin', feel like singin'
Tired of workin', my mind is buzzin'
Feel like dancin' yes I do

But you gotta make the best of life while you're young
Good people, weekend
Do just what you wanna do, weekend
When those workin' days are through
Weekend, weekend, weekend
Weekend, weekend
You know it's time to get away, weekend
I wanna hear ev'rybody say
Weekend, weekend, weekend

Saturday night feelin' just right
Makin' new friends, lazy Sunday
Every Monday ends my weekend, yes it does
But you gotta make the best of life while you're young
Listen people, weekend
Party down with all your friends, weekend
It's party, hearty time again
Weekend, weekend, weekend
Weekend, weekend
Spendin' all my hard-earned pay, weekend
With crazy nights and lazy days
Weekend, weekend, weekend

But you believe me right now, weekend
Watchin' all the people play, weekend
I wanna hear ev'rybody say
Weekend, weekend, weekend
Weekend, weekend
Do what you wanna do, weekend
When those workin' days are through
Weekend, weekend, weekend
Ah you gotta make the best of life while you're young
Right now, weekend
Do what you wanna do, weekend
When those workin' days are through
Weekend, weekend, weekend
Yeah weekend

A bar band called Wet Willie? Maybe in the carefree 1970s... :)

I'm not a Leppard fan, so Gods of War doesn't ring a bell. I'm sure I heard everything else off the radio

I looked at that list and wondered why he only listed songs from Hysteria
or newer. :) I think you have the right answer as far as album-oriented stations go. I am not sure some of the others were Top-40 hits but they
were all over AOR radio after the album came out.

Well using Google is looking at the back of the answers of a crossword puzzle magazine. It's cheating. Try to pretend that you don't have Google and use
that brain instead. It makes it more challenging and interesting that way. You learn more when you use the brain.

A long time ago, I used to use an IRC channel with a trivia game competition. If you're competing live against other players in real-time, it still helps to know answers offhand so you can answer quickly without having to spend time looking them up.

Freenode still has those trivia bots. The people that play are too fast for me. Sometimes I think I'm playing against the same bot that's running the game. I get my butt kicked but it's still fun. I try and find the irc bots that ask rock history questions. I'm pretty good at that. ;-)

The channel I played in was on Undernet. Some people were fairly fast. Sometimes lag didn't help either.

There's an online RPG called "Kingdom of Loathing" that's a real kick.

("An Adventurer is You!", claims the game)

There's a chat channel and radio station staffed by volunteers, and a while back I won one of their trivia contests. My prize? 1,000,000 MEAT.

(Meat is the in-game currency/material, you'd have to play it to understand)

But, definitely play it.

Damn, I remember Undernet. I was either on that one or EFnet. Used to spend all my free time on IRC following the demise of the BBS. Just really happy to see a resurgance in the BBS community.
