Tape a record, go to prison.

Dear Huey Lewis,

I love you. Do you believe in love? Naturally.

I know I ain't perfect, but remember how you told me it's alright? I really took that to heart, and finally I feel ready to tell you how I feel, and why.

It's just that the heart of rock n' roll really IS the beat(n)! And you got me through some really hard times, with boys calling me "prude" and "boring" and "straightlaced" and "crazy bitch", with your theory that it is, in fact, hip to be square. Thank you for that, it changed my life.

I'm so happy to be stuck with you, Huey. I guess what I'm trying to say is... well... I get a little shy, so pardon me if I borrow your more eloquent words for a moment:

So do you love me or what? Do you love me or what? You're just breakin' me up... Do you love me or what?

Please circle one:

Yes

No

Maybe

(Also, I really, really want that shirt. Where did you get it?)

Love always -- heart and soul,

Your other woman (it's the power of love, Huey. Really.)

I think I've _finally found a home_ with you. And _if this is it, please let me know. If this ain't love, baby, just say so_, 'cause I've been _walking on a thin line_ and I don't want to be singin' those _honky tonk blues_...

ROFLMAO!

i would let a toddler use my new Prada bag as a teething ring to see him in concert.

i think he's fabulous -- and have a thing for older men, anyway. Sound like my playground...

It's hip to be square... just saying.

Legwarmers,
I designed that shirt some 27 years ago (ouch!) for the Plant Studios in Sausalito during the recording of "Sports". I'm sorry to say you'll have a tough time getting one (I wish I still had one).

Be well,
