Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
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 mailed "Screw the Okampa" by Voltaire to Buffistarawk.

Best bit at the end:
Let me ask you about Hallelujah, because it's been an interesting year for Hallelujah - it took on a new energy. A song that you wrote in 1984, and it appeared at No 1 and No 2 on the UK charts, and your version was also in the top 40. What did you make of that?
LC: I was happy that the song was being used, of course. There were certain ironic and amusing sidebars, because the record that it came from which was called Various Positions - [a] record Sony wouldn't put out. They didn't think it was good enough. It had songs like Dancing to the End of Love, Hallelujah, If It Be Your Will. So there was a mild sense of revenge that arose in my heart. But I was just reading a review of a movie called Watchmen that uses it, and the reviewer said "Can we please have a moratorium on Hallelujah in movies and television shows?" And I kind of feel the same way. I think it's a good song, but I think too many people sing it.

Hate them both. HATE. HAAAAAAAAAAAAATE.
I'll be over here on the hate sofa. With a glass of hate, and a wee hate umbrella.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Turn around / Every now and then I want to plunge ice picks through both my ears / So I never have to hear this song again / Turn around...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Frank has no magic in his heart.
Or maybe I mean no bombast.
(I always get those two confused.)
