Matthew defines what great power pop is, his songs have memorable melodies, hooks and lyrics but he rocks as well. I'm a big fan.

Don't you love the influence of the Beach Boys and Beatles with the harmonies and brilliant chord progressions? Plus he always has some genius guitarist melting your face off with lead fills and solos that would make the most devout hard rock and heavy metal fans take notice.

100% Fun means so much to me. The whole album is connected to memories of my post high-school days, when I was discovering and embracing my independance. It is a perfect summer album, and holds up years later. Get Older has become my favorite track, for a number of reasons. So good.

For anyone who doesn't know where the title "100% Fun" came from, it was meant to be ironic. He took it from Kurt Cobain's suicide letter ("life is no longer 100% fun"). There's an interview somewhere on KZitem where he explains this. Also, it's nice to see Richards sense of humor on display. I spoke with him very briefly in 2010 and he was joking the whole time. It was awesome.

Also I wish I could go back to the 90s, it wasn't a perfect time but it was a pretty damn fun time!!! Is that Alison Stewart, she was cute? I think she works for ABC News now? Makes me want to vomit!
