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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
If you have a chance to see the musical Bat Out of Hell you 100% should.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Slate's Hit Parade podcast from Chris Molanphy is always a favorite of mine, and he did a recent episode on Steinman, which was outstanding.

If you have Hulu, then you need to watch Summer of Soul.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Charlie Watts has died.
When Mick Jagger introduced Charlie as "my drummer" Charlie said, "Fuck that! You're my singer."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
He knew his worth.
He also punched Mick in the face after he said it. And Mick took it. Because he was being an asshole.

The actual event was even cooler than I'm making known.
The Stones were in a hotel. Mick was frolicking with girls, and there were some reporters interviewing him there. Mick ordered a flunkie to "go get my drummer."
Ten minutes later Charlie showed up, in a Saville Row suit with tie, and punched him in the face told him Mick that he was his singer.
