Tommy: yes, it stays in iTunes.
Jon: 51,688 for me. But I've been culling some of the flab recently.
Mal: He calls back, you keep them occupied. Wash: What do I do, shadow puppets?
'The Message'
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.

You play it once and go, "Huh, that was interesting." But you doubt you'll ever listen to it again. Does it stay in iTunes?
Nope, not me, on the same anti-clutter principle that I'm trying to apply to my house.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am Dana. I am under 12000 in my iTunes and I am constantly culling. I think it is fair to say that there are more than a 1000 songs on there that I have never heard. Sad.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My latest discovery: The Raveonettes. Am loving Lust Lust Lust and Sometimes They Drop By after seeing Lust Lust Lust in a "Best of '08" list on WFMU. eMusic says: "Better than Psychocandy. That's right, we said it." Um, I don't think so... but it's still a great album.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
If I think there's a chance I'd play it on the radio it stays. Otherwise, I delete it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yep Roc Records Press Release just hit my inbox:
Reinvention reigns supreme in the elastic world of Robyn Hitchcock. His latest incarnation with the Venus 3 (Peter Buck, Scott McCaughey & Bill Rieflin) spawned the critically acclaimed Ole Tarantula in 2006. Three years later this confection of rock stars and underground legends is back in 2009 with the post-modern pop masterpiece Goodnight Oslo. Stabbing horns from compatriot Terry Edwards swim alongside gorgeous harmonies throughout this 10-track snapshot of Hitchcock's version of pop music in a perfect world. Goodnight Oslo features guest vocalists Colin Meloy, Sean Nelson and Morris Windsor who help Robyn sing his way through a dreamy remembrance of 16 years of intoxication. An album of nearly unwavering positivity, Goodnight Oslo shines down with the beautiful "I'm Falling" and the beatific "Up to Our Nex," the latter written for the soundtrack to the stirring Jonathan Demme film Rachel Getting Married. A new era in an already fabled career, Robyn's latest work strengthens the pull of his lunar-like gravity and adds yet another chapter to the myth of one of rock music's most influential undercurrents.

Seriously cool video from Make TV (of Make magazine) of a theremin orchestra in which the theremins appear to be Russian nested dolls: [link]
