From 1978: Yes, I Still Want To Be Kristy MacNichol...Or, In A Pinch, Jimmy Will Do
I idolized Kristy MacNichol when I was a kid. I mean, just really worshiped the ground she walked on. And I watched this Dick Clark special back in 1978 just to catch a glimpse of her and her brother singing "He's A Dancer." So much freaking conga. This song is a WIN.

These kids today with their Justin Bieber and their Miley Cyrus, they don't know from talent! Back in my day we had STARS!

O, our paths diverge sharply here, my dear. Unbearable!! I love Ms. McN too, but not here. The "choreography," the pastel jumpsuits, the lip-synching ... too much :)

In retrospect, I guess it makes sense that I always got crushes on the Kristy MacNichols,the Joan Jetts of the world-damn what a clueless little homo I was!
