No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Jan '67 live version of "Interstellar Overdrive." [link] It's pretty awesome. Also something called "Nick's Boogie" (also by Floyd) which I haven't listened to yet. From eMusic.

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

Inspired by Knut's LJ, an absolutely blistering live performance of "Entertain" by Sleater-Kinney

Here's a better version of the Sleater-Kinney IFC performance: [link]

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

Matilda likes music and dances to anything with a good beat, but I think we just discovered her first favorite artist.

I put on a CD while I was making myself a vodka tonic. I was holding her in one arm, and carefully transporting the shotglass full of vodka to the cocktail glass when the opening riff to "Sex Machine" came on and she bounced so hard I spilled vodka all over myself.

So we danced to James Brown and during the "Shake your moneymaker" chorus she went "Oooh!" and pointed her hand in the air. And when it ended on "can we hit it and quit it" and it ended she exclaimed "Yah!" I think I can get that over to "Huh!" in no time.

Now she's grooving so hard to "Popcorn" JZ is having a hard time feeding her.

Christmas List for Matilda: Startime box set.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

So we danced to James Brown and during the "Shake your moneymaker" chorus she went "Oooh!" and pointed her hand in the air.

Like she didn't care?

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

Like she didn't care?

She's not quite there yet. She's blithe but not carefree. At least judging by her frequently furrowed brow.
