I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

Couldn't have been. It was MTV all the time.

The original S&M one with people in cages or the boring light show one?

Same character, I think. "Holly came from Miami, F. L. A./Thought s/he (?) was James Dean for a day/Plucked etc...." is how it goes, I'm pretty sure.

Nope. Jackie was just speedin' away / Thought she was James Dean for a day....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. The song also emphasises the importance of having a downer, such as Valium, to help out after an amphetemine binge.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

This is a Melanie song?

I have to admit, the only version I've ever heard is by Rasputina. Assuming we're talking about the same song, which I think we are.

Thanks, Sean, I'd forgotten that verse entirely.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Ugh. 97 degrees here in Boston. It's supposed to get back into the 60s tonight, but I'm not buying it yet.

Oh well - if the humidity is to be believed, it's a dry heat. Feh.

What is even happening?

I saw that Rasputina covered it, when I was googling. I think I have to hear that version.

He kissed me in a way that I've never been kissed before
Oooh, THAT way.
Oh, everyone cut it out. They didn't mean that.

I don't know. I thought there was NO air, when I went outside (against my will) earlier. But a little while ago, I let Chris back out, because he'd left his hobby horse and cowboy hat in the yard. As opposed to the deathly, heavy air this morning, there's quite a breeze now. This might be an actual instance of what I think of as the mythical dry heat.

Then again, at 97, it still sucks. Ovens have dry heat, too.

Perzactly. Not going out until I'm leaving, and, luckily I've got a thing with friends that will keep me in AC for a while (once I get there).

I just hope closing up my place in Salem when it was 76 this morning has kept it a bit cooler then the outside temp.

You know, the liner notes to some blues album I used to have implied that the line "Pig meat is what I crave" was dirty dirty dirty. I've never understood what it was supposed to mean.

I always liked "If You See Kay" because she was "Built up like a Coca-Cola bottle".
