Taken from Rita’s blog…Thanks Rita!

For those of you who know the song “Cupid’s Chokehold” by Gym Class Heroes, part of it was sampled from the song “Breakfast in America” by Supertramp:

Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I’ve got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Breakfast in America’s writer, Roger Hodgson, actually wrote this back when he was 17 years old, and dreaming of coming to America. It makes me feel good that Roger’s music is getting new exposure to a younger generation.

To find out more about Roger Hodgson, please visit the following websites:

Roger also has a DVD out, entitled “Take the Long Way Home – Live in Montreal” which is definitely worth purchasing. Pick up a copy at http://www.rogerhodgsonstore.com.
