Leading contender for most bizarre murder ballad ever:
Wow, something even Nick Cave wouldn't try to make a song out of.
BTW, where was that song from, Hec?
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

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.

They were responsible for the song which later become "A Man of Constant Sorrow."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I just got back from The Raconteurs at the Greek Theatre. Wow. If I hadn't seen The Pleasure Barons in a little club in Hollywood that would have been the best concert I ever saw. The second row seats surely helped. Man I am blown away.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Laga--I clicked on this thread as I was listening to "Consolers of the Lonely" and your post was the first that came up! I totally envy you.

It was an incredible experience. My first time at The Greek too. It will not be my last, what a beautiful venue. Such a diverse crowd, too.
I wish I could mix sound. Someone really needs to do a mashup of "Steady As She Goes" with "Is She Really Going Out With Him?".

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Is it too early to start talking Halloween music? I'm hoping someone might have a good copy of DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince's "Nightmare on My Street."
We're trying to pick a song to dance to for the Halloween bellydance party and that one came up. Other suggestions are also welcome.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I don't have the Fresh Prince, smonster, but I have posted a lot of Halloween music at both Buffistarawks. Search under Halloween or "Toil and Trouble."
I think something like Harry Belafonte's "Zombie Jamboree" would probably work for bellydancing. Also the Addams Family exploitation dance song, "The Lurch" is a big favorite around our house.
Anyway, there's a lot to check out there.

Awesome! Thanks, Hec. I'll definitely go check them out.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Also check out..."The Vampire Club" by Voltaire, "Swingin' at the Seance" (40s era swing), "Remains of the Day" - Danny Elfman (from Corpse Bride) and "I'm a Vampire" by Future Bible Heroes. But wait! There's more... t /K-Tel

“Not dead yet!”
Funny-- I was just listening to Vince Guaraldi's "Great Pumpkin Waltz."
Not so much for the dancing, but still, fun.
