erinaceous where did you hear this Nick cover, anyway?
I can't even imagine wanting another version over Iggy's. My imagination is bankrupt on the subject.
Have sudden urge to hear Iggy singing "Sweet sixteeen / In Leather boots..."

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.

I just heard *about* the cover, and now I must hear the actual thing.
Supposedly Vince Neil (of Motley Crue, do I even need to make this parenthetical explanation here?) did a cover too, which I really want to hear. As it was supposed to be for the Showgirls soundtrack, and I really need to hear a song so lame it couldn't even be on the Showgirls soundtrack.
I did finally get the Smithereens cover, and it's hysterical because the singer is cueing the band: "now I'm singing that verse again" ...

Silence means security silence means approval
Since I asked the album question... what songs are high on your "best of 2005" list? Do you even do a best-of with songs?
Most played song on my iPod this year: "Black And White Town," Doves

I think Vince used it on the soundtrack of his porno. There's probably some Crue fansite (or maybe even Vince's official site) where you could get a package deal on his and Tommy's videos. Just how much do you want to hear it?

Name the speaker:
- And then Isaac Hayes introduced me to Jimmy Webb... we were at a songwriters' commemoration one time and Isaac actually brought me on stage and introduced me, I was like, Wow. I was speechless.
- There's an x-factor in females that spit. I'm actually putting together a group of stellar female MCs... I was inspired by Le Tigre.
Click here for the answer. I knew his favorite Beatles song was "The Long and Winding Road," but I never would have guessed that meeting Jimmy Webb would leave him speechless. "You're quite hostile." "I got a right to be hostile -- someone left my cake out in the rain!"

Hec, I love the Bad Livers cover of "Lust for Life"? It's not better than Iggy's, but it's not worse, either - it's its own thing.

Well, I'm not constitutionally opposed to covers. To the contrary, I like a good reworking. It's just the things I like best about that song are so Iggyish.

Not enough to order Crue porn off the internet.
In fact, I'm not sure if I want anything enough to order Crue porn off the internet to get it.
