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.

I Know I Know I Know, Tegan and Sara

Woot!

I absolutely love this song, but I have to admit, there's something about their voices that grates. I don't think I could sit and listen to a whole album at once.

It took a while for me to warm up to them but I'm such a girly fan at this point. I think the latest album is pretty fucking great.

ETA: Plus they're cute! [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't have an iPod, so I can't play. But I did do a few new mixes (to cheer up Rio while she's tied to the Legasus).

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Is Soulseek downy down, like, for good? I was looking for a specific out-of-print remix, and, well, I can't get anything. No website, no client, no forums, nothing.

I'm searching for Okkervil River right this second and came up with all manner of hits, Gandalfe. I think you're just getting crap luck.

Hmm. Maybe it was just temporary server trouble, then.

Something I'm noticing: the cool song for everyone and his brother to cover these days is "Psycho Killer." I've found at least four instances of this recently, including a really good one by Bishop Allen just today. Anyone else noticing this, or am I just synchronicitizing?

Well, Talking Heads are kind of the referent band of the moment, just recently supplanting Gang of 4 in that regard. So that makes sense, I guess.

Of course, nothing's going to top "Psycho Chicken" - buk buk buk buk buk buk...

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

Mr. Broom, would you mind sharing that Bishop Allen cover? I love them. "Little Black Ache" is one of my favorite songs ever.
