Aww, damn. Wasn't he the voice of Audrey II?
He was.
And a fine Audrey he was. "Feed me, Seymour!"

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.

Norman Whitfield, who was also namechecked in that song, also passed away recently.

I always wanted to write an article about Norman, but settled for my piece on the late Temptations record, 1990, in Lost in the Grooves. What a great songwriter and producer.
"Smiling Faces" is so sinister.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
*Please* tell me someone will be taking video!
Ayup, most likely. And I hope in a digital format for easy YouTube action.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
We saw Tegan and Sara last night (and are seeing them again tonight). It was a good show, but they are doing way too much pandering to the crowd. Having the crowd start songs, sing along, etc. That drives me crazy. They also had Matt Sharp (Weezer) come out and he has always bugged the shit out of me. He has always seemed like a self-important ass. Sara was treating him like a God, which was also a bit annoying. I mean, we all loved Weezer but save your adoration for Rivers Cuomo, man.
In shallow news, I liked Sara's new haircut, which DW deemed "Flock of Seagulls." She looked adorable in it. Also happy that Tegan was more in the lead seat during this show - she is my fave both in songwriting and baby-dyke adorability.

That's important news.

Randomly, I just friended an old high-school era friend on Facebook and evidently he's working for Weezer now. He seems to be on tour with them anyway.

Has anyone got an MP3 of the Natalie Merchant version of "Because the Night?"

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
I do. Live performance, at least. Not sure if there's another version.
