Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I didn't do one here, but this link has my top 20 albums at the bottom: [link]

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

Sidenote: The songs in the new Hugh Grant/Drew Barrymore romantic comedy, Music and Lyrics, were written by Adam Schlessinger of Fountains of Wayne.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I don't think we did do any. But I've still been thinking about it. Maybe we have some distance from 06 and can do it now?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

All things considered, I\'d rather be in Philadelphia [link]

I saw a Secret Cinema show when it traveled out to SF. Cool stuff.

"Either it's murder, or this library has a very strict overdue policy."

A handful of us did best of 2006-lists.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel

A handful of us did best of 2006-lists.

Right. I didn't know if that was the case or not so I can backtrack and see.

For what it's worth my top five of '06 were, in no particular order:

Dar Williams - My Better Self. The Paper Chase - Now You Are One Of Us. The Dresden Dolls - Yes, Virginia. The Hold Steady - Boys and Girls In America. And cheatingly

The Cardigans - Super Extra Gravity

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Mine would be M. Ward, Chris Thile, The Hold Steady, Christina Aguilera (hush!), and Neko Case.

Ask me again, and I'd probably change some of those...

"Either it's murder, or this library has a very strict overdue policy."

This month, hell, this week I've finally stopped being bothered by the sometimes dodgy (in my mind that is, not a big fan of the echoy tin shed aesthetics of the 80ies) production values in the Mekons. I'm hooked.
