"Burnin' for You" is a hit song by American hard rock band Blue Öyster Cult, from the band's Platinum Fire of Unknown Origin album, released in July 1981. While reading up on this song I was once again reminded I really know very little about anything. The band's songs are still very popular and some of their videos were played near constantly on the "new MTV" back in the day.
I think I know stuff about bands and songs and I really don't. It is strange how the brain takes random bits of information and constructs a logical scenario. I have discovered I know very little about a whole library full of things. I would have guessed this band was mid-western, from Normal, Kansas or somewhere like that. Nope, Long Island, NY. WTF? I think that as most people I form early opinions on things, all things and then hope through the process of investigation and learning that I reshape and validate the original impression. Apparently, I am bad at that process.
