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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I was just thinking in the car earlier, while it was playing, that "I'm Not Okay" is totally one of my moodlifters!

It's very cathartic to scream "I'm not okay" a couple of dozen times.

OMG, Hec, that is the funniest thing I've read in a long time.

And you even managed to get 9 of the 12 actual themes in there: Cars, Colors, Rain, Summer, Numbers, Flowers, Days of the Week, Money, and Mental Health (or, as you say, lack thereof). Not that you've assigned songs correctly, but still.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

OMG, Hec, that is the funniest thing I've read in a long time.

I was channeling the remberance of John Candy on the $10,000 Pyramid, desperately shouting out random categories as the clock wound down. The most memorable of which was, "Things that Smell Like Lima Beans!"

Which pops into my head all the time when I'm categorizing things. "Hmmm, what pile does this go into? Things that Smell Like Lima Beans?"

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Hec's list is indeed funny.

This kid probably thinks "I'm Not Okay" is cheesy, but I can see Gee taking him under his wing anyway. (Boy wears black lipstick, eyeliner, polish to school, gets in trouble and banned from wearing makeup.)

Gee would respect the kid's "Right to express himself by wearing makeup and thinking my band sucks."

I can't believe no one was bored enough to take on my challenge. What are you people doing? Working?

It was more of a challenge my way!

“Not dead yet!”

Well, the Genius Sidebar in iTunes 8 finally struck.

Kind of unexpected-- film scores. I decided I wanted something in which I could really sink into for writing marathons. I've always known this, but boy, howdy, do I have an affinity for French horns and 3/4, 6/8, or irregular time signatures.

Why yes, there's a lot of John Williams in the new playlist.
