LeN, I love you for bringing us the A.V Club, because that cover was awesome, as is Lucero covering Bowie's "Modern Love". [link]
I just. BEN.
I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

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 feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
you know, I have a long standing belief that people shouldn't cover Bowie songs, but that came really really close to changing my mind.

I've got a few Bowie covers I like.
Dana Gillespie covering "Andy Warhol." (Possible cheat as Bowie wrote it for her first, he produced it and that's Ronson on guitar. But I prefer it to Bowie's version.)
Despite the 80s production and drums I like Marti Jones version of "Soul Love."
Richard Barone's cover of "The Man Who Sold The Earth" influenced Nirvana's cover on Unplugged.
Lulu covered "Watch That Man" - again, another Bowie production with Ronno on guitar.
How about Bowie covering Springsteen?

I'm...glad you like those.
Doesn't change the belief for me though

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What PJ Harvey Taught Me About Sex
Her first three albums, which I first heard as a teen, are an exhaustive chart of what it can mean to be both sexual and a girl.
Interesting--this makes me see those three albums (which I love to death) differently.
eta:
That summer, I listened and danced, over and over, to one woman: Draped in red satin, red lipstick, her black hair floating like a veil, so frighteningly, entirely female that she didn't look real. Her dark-chocolate, boy-girl voice rising out over that one, low, aching bass riff, that riff that I was sure was telling me everything, sideways and in code: "I've lain with the Devil / Cursed God above / Forsaken heaven / To bring you my love."
I thought PJ Harvey knew everything about sex. I wasn't wrong. Her first three albums, especially – the ones I had to work with – are an exhaustive chart of what it can mean to be both sexual and a girl.

I could buy a bootleg of it for you at Amoeba if you like. Bit of a downer as a movie. It's certainly not fun. Though I love the song. (Thank you, Jon B.!)
Fun fact: Deb is sort of in the movie. She's on the other end of the phone call at the beginning, IIRC.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
On May 4, 2012, nearly 25 years to the day, Barone reassembled the original quartet and recreated the "Cool Blue Halo" album in its entirety, along with very special guests and added songs, at City Winery.
WHY WAS I NOT THERE???????????????????????????????????????????

(Thank you, Jon B.!)
You are welcome!
Tom - I have a digital file version of the film. We could use dropbox or somesuch to transfer it. It's about 1GB though.
