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.

So, I'm browsing through AMG and I notice that Mercury Rev's Deserter's Songs is 9 years old. Huh. And Sparklehorse's debut is 11 years old. So is Soul Coughing's Irresistible Bliss.
How can that be? The late nineties was a decade ago.
That happens to me during my radio show sometimes. I'll play a CD and say that it I think it came out "a few years ago", then actually look at it and discover that "a few" = "12".
BBCA is running a documentary on BritPop now and tomorrow they're going to marathon all the music docs they've been running Saturdays.
If my main reaction to the first half hour or so of Mirrormask was a nagging irritation with the lead character, is there any point in watching the rest?
