867-5309/Jenny

I heard this song on the radio the other day and thought, "They just don't make one hit wonders like they used to." Well, now I have a legitimate context in which to post it. Last month some dude called 867-5309 in every area code and documented the responses. Enjoy.

Tommy Tutone - "867-5309/Jenny"

Here's a good one at (678) 867-5309: "Wow, you’ve reached this recording because you’re a loser and have no life. You must be one of the many who has dropped out of school and is living on taxpayer money. Please hang up the phone, get a job, and make a contribution to society. Goodbye!"

Rick Springfield does own. I might tend to agree.
