I think Pix's musical mission in life is to introduce / make people like Kirsty MacColl. She's good at it.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I approve of this mission wholeheartedly.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I love Kirsty. Everybody should own Kite.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
She also sent me "In These Shoes?" which I also like.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Fun, short interview with Bootsy Collins at AVclub.
Do read the comments to see an outpouring of pure Bootsy love and adoration. Dude is beloved. Bootsy's got to be the nicest genius to ever work in music. I remember when Lynda Barry needed an angelic figure in one of her comics and she based it on Bootsy.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Anyone else watching Eurovision? I'm rooting for the Moldovans. Crazy conical hats! A unicycle!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I wasn't but now I'm rooting for the Moldovans based entirely on their hats and unicycles.

There were a few good ones (relatively speaking). David, I think you'd have dug the Serbians. An all female vocal group with great mod outfits doing modern Motown-ish number.
