RIP, Marvin Hamlisch.
The story is, nothing sounds quite like the songs that were popular when you were 12. His version of "The Entertainer" was big early in the summer I turned 12.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hey P-C, I really like that GroupLove album you recommended on FB. Thanks!

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
Saw the Dead Can Dance concert last night, at an outdoor venue. Which means that as dusk fell, I was watching Dead Can Dance perform live while bats swooped and fluttered in the trees; a perfect gothy moment.
For one of the encores, Brendan Perry sang "Song to the Siren". You know, the song written by Tim Buckley that This Mortal Coil covered, that every goth of a certain age gets swoony and wildly-emotional over? Pete said watching me and the StuntHusband simultaneously freak out when the song started was a little eerie.

You know, I'm a little worried that Bowie hasn't done anything since he had heart problems seven years ago.
He was pretty markedly missing from the closing ceremonies.

Bowie turned down an offer to perform. They mention his absence from the public eye, but don't mention his health.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
He has really done nothing since he had major heart surgery in 2004. Just a few guest appearances.
