'Safe'


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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Is there any room for one more person? (that would be me, if there is)

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

A bridge should only appear once during a song. I get annoyed when one is repeated before the song's end.

Tonight a friend I was drinking with came up with

the song that you would sing to yourself if you were ever in a dire situation and needed it to keep going

And also from my night -

A song that even when you know it's time to LEAVE the BAR someone can put on the jukebox to make you stay

(tonight's was "Can't Hardly Wait" - I mean - how are you going to leave while that is playing?)

Pick well, Corwood!!

I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine

A song that even when you know it's time to LEAVE the BAR someone can put on the jukebox to make you stay

A song about not admitting a drinking problem to oneself... Just kidding.:-)

Per Misha's suggestion of a non-Buffy Buffy song, I've always thought of "Can't We Be Friends" (Sinatra, In the Wee Small Hours) as the Ballad of Xander and Buffy: "I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams/now it seems,/this is how the story ends:/She's gonna turn me down and say,/ 'Can't we be friends?'"

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Did we do song by a band with an awful name?

Also, I need some good karaoke song recommendations for someone who can sing "Time After Time" on-key but has otherwise had a distressing tendency to choose stuff out of her range. Anyone?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

63 category suggestions, and they're all freakin' excellent!

I picked out my favorite 27 last night before getting David's, Tina's, and Misha's new ones, so I need to switch a few around this afternoon. I'm about to leave for band practice, so it'll more likely be this evening.

Anyway, this is some great stuff, and I'm sure we'll have some fantastic mixes out of it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I got this Jonathan Coulton "Baby Got Back" from one of you people, right? LOVE. I think I need to email it to everyone I know. Or at least my parents.
