Skipping back to the superheroes, Buffistarawk just acquired two Ookla the Mok songs about Arthur Curry and SuperSkrull, for your listening pleasure/amusement.
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.
Hey, check it out! My Dan Hicks article for Oxford American is up at Dan's own website.
That's very cool!
I missed your NPR appearance - but they'll archive it on the website, right?
sumi, here it is.
Two lousy sentences. Humph.
I mean, obviously, they're two brilliant sentences, but I know my husband and I know he had plenty more to say worth hearing. Stupid actual teenager, hogging up all the talk time with her first-hand experience of Jonas Brothers fandom! What does she know?
Thanks!
(I don't even know who the Jonas Brothers are.)
I saw them on some new years eve show, and they had really nice hats. I think they have a good stylist-- and that is my opinion of their music! (actually I didn;t really listen-- I really liked the hats!)
Giles: Dear god, Buffy, there's only so much I can take. We're going to have to change the system. A fourteen-year-old's too old to be babysat, and it's not fair on her.
Buffy: What'd she make you do?
Giles: Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.
Late to the party, but a good superhero song is Particle Man by They Might Be Giants.
cd was completed and delivered-with liner notes even.
My 2 favorites: Sidekick-(Rancid) It's about Robin. No not that one. Not him either. Yep, that one.
Captain America-(moe) "Captain America said you gotta be like me or you're gonna wind up dead." ...Uhm.
Robin Quivers?
