Yeah... That went well.

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.

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

I NEED TO HUG THE EDGE!!!!!

Sorry. Better now.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Goth style icon, the young Dave Vanian.

What a pretty and dapper sonofabitch.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'm tempted by this 7" boxset, although the price is a definite barrier: [link]

Note: MCR alert!

Oh, but you know that's going to appreciate in value like crazy.

Because books.

I should maybe ask this in Gaming, but is there any chance the soundtrack MCR did for Shellshock II will be sold separately, as a soundtrack?

It's all covers of 60s and early 70s songs.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I'm distracting myself today with 80s videos on VH1 Classic. So far:

  • Olivia Newton-John, Physical: I'd forgotten the gay angle on this one. Love the headband, Liv!
  • Madonna, Lucky Star: Oh man, I sure loved Madonna in this phase. I had a couple of net tops like the black one she wears in this video. She was so darling!
  • Hall and Oates, One on One: I never was much with the H&O love (sorry, Plei!).
  • Pretenders, Middle of the Road: "I've got a kid, I'm 33 baby!" Hell yeah! Also, love the glitter hat, Hynde!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I wanted to be Chrissie Hynde when I was in high school. She was my fashion role model--big shirt with skinny tie and a fedora (I could never find one that fit my big head, damnit!!).

I did then and I still do!

And more:

  • Devo, Whip It: Still weird, still want to dance (or rollerskate) to it.
  • John Cougar Mellencamp, Small Town: This is no fun. Doesn't feel dated like a lot of this 80s stuff (Pretenders are really in that camp as well). ChildMellencamp was adorable.
  • Evelyn Champagne King, Love Come Down: Damn, I had completely forgotten this one. Probably for the best. Ms. King is wearing a fetching pink culotte one-piece with puffy, bubble-skirty legs.
  • David Lee Roth, California Girls. Ugh. I never did get this.

  • OMG Kenny Loggins, Footloose - I loved this song so much back in the day. Hey, I was like 12! Young, pissed off Bacon is adorable. Cut loose, wee Bacon (and the so obvious dancing double)!
  • Scandal, The Warrior - Flashback: The year is 1983 (or 84?) and young freshman (or sophomore?) Glamcookie really wants to be a cheerleader. She is practicing her routine to The Warrior in the backyard. Alas, cheerleading was not meant to be. Bang bang, motherfucker!
  • Berlin, The Metro - Hells yeah! I'm still feeling this song. The video, however, is pretty budget.
  • Eddie Murphy, Party all the Time - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I didn't realize we have Mr. "I'm Rick James, bitch!" to thank for this gem.
