You must know him better than I do. While I assume it's not his real name, I can't state that definitively.
I'm thinking that he's either a San Francisco transplant originally from NY; or he's a New York State "f-boy", which is probably best not to discuss here.
Are you saying he might be a television star? Goll-leeee!

What the hell with all the Taylor Swift 13 peaks?
When Taylor Swift releases an album with 14 songs, all 14 will debut on the Hot 100 in the same week, usually in positions #1 through #14. Then in the following week, they all drop several positions. Thus, each song reaches its peak position in its first week on the chart.
How could Mister Hectic not know this Tom Jones song? Daughter Of Darkness was written by Geoff Stephens (lyrics) and Les Reed (music).

In 1992, The Crying Game became a movie theme song and a #15 hit for Boy George. The Crying Game soundtrack album includes both versions of the song.
