He added that, although the song is "duller than a-day old turd", "the voice that adolescent boys once swooned for is still perfectly intact". Track listings All track ...

Sire Records Singles
Sire is an archaic respectful form of address to reigning kings in Europe. In French and other languages it is less archaic and relatively more current.

The words "sire" and "sir", as well as the French " (mon)sieur" and the Spanish " señor", share a common etymological origin, all ultimately being related to the Latin ''senior''. The female equivalent form of address is dame or dam. See also * Forms of address in the United Kingdom * King * Nobility Nobility is a social class found in many societies that have an aristocracy.

Reprise Records Singles
In music, a reprise ( , ; from the verb 'to resume') is the repetition or reiteration of the opening material later in a composition as occurs in the recapitulation of sonata form, though—originally in the 18th century—was simply any repeated section, such as is indicated by beginning and ending repeat signs. A partial or abbreviated reprise is known as a petite reprise ( , ). In Baroque music this usually occurs at the very end of a piece, repeating the final phrase with added ornamentation. Song reprises Reprise can refer to a version of a song which is similar to, yet different from, the song on which it is based. One example could be "Time", the fourth song from Pink Floyd's 1973 album '' The Dark Side of the Moon'', which contains a reprise of " Breathe", the second song of the same album. Another example could be "Solo", the fifth song from Frank Ocean's 2017 album '' Blonde'', and then " Solo (Reprise)", the tenth song of the same album. Music theater In musical ...

A pupa ( la, pupa, "doll"; plural: ''pupae'') is the life stage of some insects undergoing transformation between immature and mature stages. Insects that go through a pupal stage are holometabolous: they go through four distinct stages in their life cycle, the stages thereof being egg, larva, pupa, and imago. The processes of entering and completing the pupal stage are controlled by the insect's hormones, especially juvenile hormone, prothoracicotropic hormone, and ecdysone. The act of becoming a pupa is called pupation, and the act of emerging from the pupal case is called eclosion or emergence. The pupae of different groups of insects have different names such as ''chrysalis'' for the pupae of butterflies and ''tumbler'' for those of the mosquito family. Pupae may further be enclosed in other structures such as cocoons, nests, or shells. Position in life cycle The pupal stage follows the larval stage and precedes adulthood (''imago'') in insects with complete metamorphosi ...

Jeffrey Ross Hyman (May 19, 1951 – April 15, 2001), known professionally as Joey Ramone, was an American musician, best known as the lead singer and a founding member of the punk rock band Ramones.
