Buffy ,'Beneath You'
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 show also features a character named 'Dani California', which is also the title of a Red Hot Chili Peppers song released in 2006, according to the lawsuit.
The Peppers are idiots...if Wikipedia is to be believed. According to this link they didn't create the word "californication", so they can't sue if someone else also makes use of it. They could win on the character name but I doubt it, since it would set up a disastrous precedent.
Weird question--does anyone have the christmas mixes I made a couple years ago handy? I have cds of them all, but they are (of course) in the US, but I was hoping someone might have downloaded some of them and still had them for me to, ah, re-download.
I have some of them, SA, but not at work, and probably not every single song. Also, I'm leaving town this afternoon, so I wouldn't be able to upload stuff until next week.
No biggie. I just wanted to burn them off for christmas music at Lush, so whenever you have them handy. Thanks!
What if you were paralyzed, sorta' like Stephen Hawking, and the only way you had to communicate was by operating a hand-held electronic thingie, except the hand-held electronic thingie was an iPod. So you could only communicate by selecting various songs to play.
I suppose the TMBG song "I'm Having a Heart Attack" could come in handy at some point in your life. And P-C could have played The White Stripes song "I Think I Smell a Rat" when he had his rodent crisis recently....
So you could only communicate by selecting various songs to play.
That was a plot point in the Transformers movie. Really.

Huh. I should totally become a Hollywood screenwriter. Or, you know, write stuff for the SciFi Channel....
Hi all. Not to barge in on a thread I don't usually read, but I figure you all would know if anyone would. I am listening to "Blue Monk," a John Coltrane/Thelonius Monk collaboration at Carnegie Hall (don't know the date), and I can hear someone humming tunelessly in the middle of one of the solos, and hissing through his teeth elsewhere. Would that be Coltrane, or Monk, or someone else?
It doesn't bother me; I also have Glenn Gould's Bach recordings, where he accompanies himself with noodly whispers of singing, and I think it's neat. I just, would like to locate this instance of noodling in proper context.
Monk hummed along with his solos. There's a neat story behind that album, which was recorded in 1957, if you want to hear it.
Do tell!
