fuck
OK, everybody seems to have their definitions of this nasty word. Here's one you all missed. It's the name of an indie band from the San Francisco Bay Area that got together around 1993 or so. They have put out several albums over the years. The music is pretty much alright, there are some good songs there, and their albums are critically acclaimed but because of the band name radio won't play their music, most record stores won't stock their albums, and most clubs won't book them. If it weren't for the Internet they probably wouldn't be going anywhere. Go to Wikipedia, type in the name and go to the proper entry. At the bottom of that page is a link to the band's website.
Fuck is a band that is in a situation where because of their name their prospects for success are limited. The success they have is largely due to word-of-mouth and of course, the Net.

MSB
In the Cleveland area, MSB is the abbreviation for the local band the Michael Stanley Band. They had 2 national hits in the Eighties, "He Can't Love You (Like I Love You)" - a Top 20 hit in 1981, and "This Town is My Town" from 1983. A special version of the latter song was played on radio stations in the Columbus, Ohio area that has a shouted chorus "COLUMBUS!" added to the mix. MSB is also the title of the group's 1982 album, and to some critics it also means "Mighty Shitty Band".
In the metropolitan Cleveland area, many Michael Stanley Band fans wore jackets that said MSB on the back. There are some items from that band at the Hard Rock Cafe located in a mall in downtown Cleveland.

chicks and dicks
basically, it's a contemptuous term used by critics to denote the same old, same old themes used over and over again, especially in catagories of popular music such as cock rock and cock country. For example: "Ooh baby I just want to make love to you" or descriptions of life on the road, "love 'em and leave 'em" (I can't establish a relationship with you girl, but maybe next year me and the boys will be back here and we can screw again), the inconveinence of getting VD, and all that rigmarol.
I read the CD booklet of a Midnight Oil album and the narrator was amazed that there was an Aussie band that not only truly sounded Australian, even in their accents, but one that had somethings important to say, let alone anything to say period. Something besides the usual touring-and-getting-VD bromides, which he described as "chicks and dicks".

wankeroo
like jacking off or wanking, it's basically a waste, as in a waste of time and effort. Doesn't amount to much, it's basically just junk.
Much of the popular music in the fucking PC 90s and afterward, particularly this emo crap simply sounds like and says the same old thing, like "Ewwwwwwwwwww! You fucked me over this way, you fucked me over that way! You ran over my pet hamster with your Radio Flyer wagon when I was 6! Wah! I'm traumatized. Gimme some heroin." Most entertainment today is pure wankeroo because it's so cliche-ridden, formulaic, disposable, cookie cutter, without passion and unoriginal.

American Pie
1. Another obsession for fundamentalists (religious fanatics) to overanalyze, which they do with just about everything. Generally, it's a hit song by Don McLean which was a big smash in 1971. The lyrics refer to several events and pop culture phenominae during the time period from the late 40s to around 1970. AKA "The Day the Music Died", this tune refers to the plane crash deaths of Buddy Holly, Richard Valens, and The Big Bopper at the same time in the late 1950's. Played excessively by radio stations, it's considered to be a "classic", but then again, so is "You You -YOU" by Peter Frampton, "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" by Meat Loaf and "You Light Up My Life" by Debbie Booneand other shit. In 2000 Madonna released a cover of this tune, and it ain't that hot.
2. a series of "coming-of-age" sex-crazed-teens-just-gotta-get-laid movies from 1999 to the present that feature nothing in their plots that haven't been done before, except that one of the main male characters fucks an apple pie. How inspiring, NOT!

1. Miss American Pie took her Chevy to the levee. OK, now what comes next?
2. The American Pie movies are now a franchise like the National Lampoon series and are an example of how comedy flicks, as well as movies in general have pretty much declined in quality in the past 10 years or so.

Motorhead
1. In the United Kingdom, it's slang word for "speed freak".
2. In the United States, it's a slang word used to describe someone who likes to tinker on automobile engines, a car engine enthusiast.
3. The first speed metal/thrash band, formed in England in 1975. They were the first band to combine heavy metal with the attitude and speedy velocity of punk rock. They sound a lot like Chuck Berry at warp speed.

1. Larry from Glouchester pops speed tablets 3 times a day. He is what the Brits call a "motorhead".
2. I read an article in the Columbus Dispatch newspaper one time that detailed people in Japan who like to fix up and tinker on the engines of American model cars. They were referred to as Japanese motorheads.
3. Motorhead puts on a very entertaining show, but because I saw them in a club they gave the LOUDEST show I've ever been to. After the show I got a bass pick used by Lemmy Kilmeister. You had to shout and scream in order to have a conversation as we all left the club. I had a ringing in ears that lasted for 3 days. Still, the gig was excellent. When it comes to speed metal, these guys did it first. They should be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
This is a phrase that British actor/singer Murray Head says when he sees an array of nude Thai stripper girls in the video for the 1985 hit "One Night in Bangkok". That song is featured in the Cold War-themed romantic adventure musical "Chess", which was written by the men of ABBA and appeared on Broadway in 1988.
Rocky, Freddy and Frankie are watching cable TV in their dorm room. The 1983 movie "Class" is being shown on HBO. It stars Jacqueline Bisset as a Mrs. Robinson type. You get the idea. After this preppy-ass boarding school kid meets her in a bar they are later in a shopping mall, in an elevator all by themselves and they kanoodle and he goes down on her and there is some noise being made. Frankie is disgusted by what he sees. He says strongly "I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine!"
