Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I'm in my usual song collecting binge from the ep; I've got the Cohen, The Frames, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs (what an awesome song) and Richard Thompson, but I'm still missing a couple of songs. There was this fabulous song that began rap-ish as Charlie was coming out of the prison, segueing to the scene of the Apartment of Pot and Snake, and googling what I can hear of the lyrics is giving me no love. *sigh*

Does anyone know how much more expensive for the studio to get licensing to use the songs on DVDs compared to broadcast airing? I'd imagine it's quite a bit more, and I can see them being able to afford, oh, Shivaree or The Frames, even, but Radiohead and the Stones and Leonard Cohen? They have to be expensive. And the thought that the DVDs will have wrong music just makes me terribly sad, because the song choices are such an big part of what makes this show work so well stylistically.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

BTW, "Shoot Out the Lights" wasn't Richard Thompson's version. It was a cover by someone I don't know.

Did some digging around, and apparently the cover was by X, an LA band that has Exene whassherface, the one that was married to Viggo Mortensen. The song's nowhere to be found online, since it's from an obscure Richard Thompson tribute album. Bah.

It's been a good year for X on TV.

Put a request in the music thread. Corwood probably has it.

Thanks, Joe. Will do.

By the way, that shot of Charlie standing in front of the upside-down car and the two dead bodies, with the deserted city streets in the background? SO BADASS. Especially with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs blaring on the soundtrack. I think I might have squeaked a little.

Thrive to spite them

I'm really upset that I deleted Monday's episode because I want to watch them both again. These two episodes were really wonderful. Him eating the fruit and also silently digging the hole.

Damian Lewis is so fantastic, all the body language and his face. Plus Dani confronting his old partner about why he didn't back him.

Dammit! Why did I watch Project Runway instead of Life last night? I'm kicking myself now. PR will be rerun a hundred times, but I can't find a decent recap of Life! So stooopid!
