1. When did Jon get his Superman tattoo, and why did he get it?
2. What is that weird sounding thing that Ritchie plays sometimes - like in It's My Life and LOAP? He blows into it and it makes funny sounds.
3. The song Living In Sin is about a young couple who are having sex before they married. I have heard that the clip ends with the young girl running away with her boyfriend, but the video I have doesn't show this, it seems to fade out. The lyrics seem to be saying that it's okay to have sex before marriage (correct me if I am wrong) but the video suggests otherwise, with the woman being taken from her boyfriend by her parents. I'm a little confused.
4. Jon is a Democrat, and was raised a Catholic, according to what I have read. Democrats seem more likely to support certain things that Catholics are opposed to, such as abortion and gay rights. Do Jon's beliefs clash with his faith at all, or is he more 'relaxed' than other religious folk may be?
5. I read on this site that Jon has said something about his wife not minding if he 'goes on the sly'. I have no idea what this means. In Australia, I guess we'd interpret it to meen he could see other women, but surely this isn't right? I imagine you guys have a different interpretation of this term?
6. Can someone give me a list of all songs released by the band? I'm trying to get all the videos and I don't think I have them all yet.
7. Silly question - but what was the very first song they ever released? My guess would be Runaway, seeing it was their first 'hit' song, but I'm not 100% sure.
8. How do you say Jon's wife's name? Is it said the same as Dorothy, but with different spelling, or is it with 'ee-ah' on the end?
9. What kind of guitar does Ritchie prefer to play?
I may have some more, but that's enough for now. If you can give me the answers, I'll really, really, appreciate it.
Thanks.  |
2. It's a talkbox. (His name's spelled "Richie", btw).
3. There are two versions of Living in Sin video (One was deemed too steamy and banned on MTV I think?). I can't remember which one has the girl running away to be with the guy... I think it *might* actually be the "cleaner" version, which if my memory serves me had more storyline to it.
4. Raised Catholic but he's been reported to say that he's not that into organised religion.
5. He's talked about how he's no saint, I think that's what you're referring to. But I won't pretend to know the intricate details of their relationship.
6. How many years have you got?
7. Runaway.
8. Dorothy with an 'ah' on the end.
