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.

Oh, thank goodness. I thought I was crazy.
The Village Voice has a long, long tradition of illucid music writing.

New coinage for Tom!
"The professor then began to illucidate his point by speaking in some pig latin variant of Esperanto, citing works which didn't exist and authors of dubious character."
Well, yeah. Does "robo-skank" mean anything to anyone?
