Does everybody remember the first time they saw "Sweet Transvestite"?
The summer before my senior year of high school.

Darn your sinister attraction!

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
Or if you're cheap and don't like me, you can subscribe to the TMBG podcast on iTunes: they're going to release a song a week.
The Bouncing Souls have been releasing a song a month for their 20th Anniversary. It's awesome. It's like twelve tiny Christmases.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The summer before my senior year of high school.
Junior year for me, I think. The Cocoanut Grove playhouse, with my friends Alex and Watch. It was the one year anniversary of it playing there.
I had some general idea, of course, of what the movie was about, but was unprepared for the Elvis-like levels of charisma Tim Curry had.

I totally didn't get that. I was, I believe I've mentioned, really repressed as a young'un. My reaction was basically, "Dude in women's underwear, having sex with everyone. Uh...ooooookay. Whatever."
I can't even remember the last time I saw RHPS. I suppose I should see it again. (I'd go to the theatre that shows it, but I *loathe* audience participation. LOATHE.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Poker Face (shut up, I like it)
I quite like her song, "Paparazzi". For some reason I'm not so keen on most of the video, except where she's poisoning her boyfriend in Mickey Mouse glasses. That's kind of cute.
Viva la Vida (just the song)
I like this song, I keep tossing up whether to buy just it or the whole album. Coldplay isn't my favourite band by any means, but I'm happy to see them recover from XY.

Currently watching the video to Sophie Ellis-Bextor's "Heartbreak Make Me A Dancer". It's readily apparent that it hasn't worked yet. I actually quite enjoy this, I imagine it's rather like trainspotting. How many videos can you count where the singer employs such tricks as jump-cuts and surrounding themselves with professionals in order to disguise their own lack of moves?Jewel's "Intuition" has to be the stand-out for mer, but let me commend Katy Perry on her "Hot And Cold" as well.

Hello awesome Buffistas! I have not been around these parts in eons.
Yesterday I was procrastinating and decided to do some album shopping on emusic and downloaded The Kinks' Muswell Hillbillies. (I am embarrassed to say it is the first full Kinks album I have ever owned.)
Anyway, I had to drop by because I just can't believe that none of you music fiends (especially, you, Hec!) ever told me about this album before! It is effing FANTASTIC.
That's all. I am going to cruise around here and see how everyone is doing.
