How is that possible?
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

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.
They were frozen cave-people who were defrosted just before this week's AI?

I don't think a lot of people take notice of music in tv shows. I know I can miss a whole song in a movie.

"If you were to tell me that playing this song as a cover is totally cliche, I'd tell you so is breathing," said Amanda Palmer, singer with the local punk cabaret duo The Dresden Dolls.
Love her! Love this! I will be using it everytime someone tells me something I love unabashedly is cliche.
"The cool thing is, a guy like Leonard Cohen is not a young man. He's never been particularly commercially successful as a musician. If this is going to make him a very comfortable old man, great for him."

He's never been particularly commercially successful as a musician.
And he got completely ripped off by his manager.

Breathing isn't cliche. I don't get that. (I get just playing something because you like it and to hell with what people will think, of course.)

I think that's Amanda's point. Just because something is done all the time, that doesn't you should stop doing it.

Oh, god. Is that why Jeff Buckley's cover of "Hallelujah" was the #1 song on iTunes this week?

I should just be happy that they're listening to Buckley at all, huh.
