I'm really not here, I swear. But I wanted to share that the WFMU blog has a link to The Fall's 2005 performance on Later With Jools Holland today.
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Volume TWO!?! Praise be. Thanks for the heads-up, Hec!
The Globe and Mail gave Aerial, the new Kate Bush album, 3 and a half stars. [link]
This sentence almost made me hyperventilate:
There's the song in which Pi is sung to more than 100 decimal places, and the one about the washing machine.
I've been trying not to get excited by this album, after The Red Shoes was so disappointing, but now I cannot wait!
I just saw Bei Ling cover "Like a Virgin" on VH1 (I almost typed "like a version", heh).
Anyone have any spare brain-scrubbers?
Um...the Lords of the New Church version of the same song?
I have Teenage Fanclub doing a cover of it somewhere...
You people are not helping.
OK, then, my tagline is from the Spike Jones version of "Ragtime Cowboy Joe."
OK, I did not plan this, but now on my radio --
Lords of the New Church, "Like a Virgin."
I am SO touched!
