Oh Tom DeLay, if your obstructionist evil did not exist, would we have to create you?
Manichaeans everywhere say yes.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Popping up to say, I never saw Triplets of Belleville, and the song does not contain any refrigerator noise, it's just, apparently, about it. Anyway, the song is apparently "Le Bruit de Frigo" by La Mano Negra, but I still can't figure out ite sure.w it.* Soundtrack to something, I'm quite sure. Er, something other than my brother's time in Syria.
(* I wonder what I was trying to type there. "figure out... where I know it from"?)
But thank you all for your suggestions!

If Hec stops by and recognizes it, could you ask him to email me? This is bugging the hell out of me. It's Manu Chao's band, apparently.

Ahh, the Black Hand. I have their first record. And by record I mean LP.

Nice to see you! Any idea why I know the song?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It's on their album King of the Bongo.
Le Bruit du Frigo
Quand ya plus rien Qu'elle est partie Qu'ya plus d'voisins Qu'ya même plus l'chien Quand ya plus d'bruits Pas plus qu'celui Qui rend marteau Le bruit du frigo
Et j'prends un verre Pour l'oublier Et j'met ma tête Sous l'oreiller Pour éviter D'entendre pleurer Ce frigidaire
Et puis voilà Qu'il s'met à Faire froid J'renverse ma bière Sur l'oreiller Et toi t'es même Plus là près d'moi A devenir folle Et à m'dire que j'pue L'ALCOOL
J'entends plus rien Que l'bruit du frigo
Et tout à coup Persécuté Par ce bruit sourd Et envoutant Je deviens fou, et je me jette PAR LA FENETRE
QUAND Quand t'as plus rien Qu'elle est partie Y a plus un bruit.... même plus celui Qui rend mélo.... L'bruit du frigo

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
What does LP stand for? Ell Pee. I can't work it out. (I do know what a record is, and am just old enough to say "record" and "album" even when I mean "contents of a CD.")

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, but I've never heard of them before, much less have their album. It's the accompaniment to some kind of visual. And yet, I'm drawing a total blank on even any foreign movies I've seen other than Diva. IMDB's no help either.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Long playing -- as opposed to a 78 which didn't have as much music on it.
