When my sister and I were little, my father used to drive us around, listening to cheesey 80's rock. Our favorite song to sing along to was "Egg nog, egg nog...don't dream it's over" which we would BELT, at the top of our lungs, every time the song came on. Not until I was in high school did I realize that Egg Nog was, in fact, "Hey now, hey now...don't dream it's over," by Crowded House.
