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.

The Cat Piano, Narrated by Nick Cave
“The Cat Piano”, a marvelous animated short film by The People’s Republic of Animation, directed by Eddie White and Ari Gibson and narrated by Nick Cave.
In a city of singing cats, a lonely beat poet falls for a beautiful siren. When a mysterious dark figure emerges, kidnapping the town’s singers for his twisted musical plans, the poet must save his muse and put an end to the nefarious tune that threatens to destroy the city.
Hey, do y'all know Behind The Music is back? This weekend, Lil Wayne. Coming up, Pink.

I've discovered I'm either too old or too well-mannered to enjoy the VMAs.
