I knew that was X doing Shoot Out the Lights.
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

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.
Philip Glass video made for Sesame Street in 1977: [link]
A blog sez:
According to the Muppet Wiki, "these works very closely resemble the "Dance" numbers written during the same time period as (Glass's) Einstein on the Beach opera."
I'd agree with that. Also, the person who made the video must have studied geometry....

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Jon, Matthew Ryan's version of "Little Drummer Boy" on this album is very eerie and ghostly and haunting. And Vince Guaraldi's "My Little Drum" from A Charlie Brown Christmas is the exact opposite, a totally joyful variant.
This is possibly the most obvious and pedestrian suggestion anyone could possibly make, yet my Guaraldi love compels me to hit "Post" anyway.

You know, someone could do a cover using a cheap Casio keyboard and a voice synthesizer à la MC Hawking....

Thank you, Jon! I'll point my friend there.
BTW, Jilli? Have you gotten the Siouxisie solo album yet? Because it's good. Really, REALLY good.
Of COURSE I have it. I think it's fabulous, and I am filled with despair that she's not coming to Seattle on tour.

Jon, the Hoodoo Gurus do a great version called "Little Drummer Boy (Up the Khyber)" that I can send to you.
