You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

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.

Though I said I would do it this week, I just put Angus' and Moonlit's cds in the mail to you, Bicyclops. There was no note or anything, I was in a hurry. Sorry.

Moonlit, there are two tracks on your CD that aren't who they say they are. The song naming province/city/state song is actually the Billy Bragg song you mention as runner up, the Unrequited love song isn't the Midge Ure song you meniton but Vienna, but Ultravox. (Which was a fabulous surprise for me, because I LOVE that song.) I made notes on the liner notes to that effect, if anyone can read my scrawl.

Midge Ure was the lead singer of Ultravox, but maybe you knew that?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Anne's mix won't burn for me. :-( And it goes all skippy in my CD player; I was hoping it was just the one in the kitchen, but the one in my bedroom does it too. If anyone manages to make a better copy of it, can I request a burn? There's some great stuff on there that I'd love to have.

Jon, I should get to the PO today, so you'll have mail tomorrow or Friday.

Yay! And I'll be able to hand-deliver them to Hayden next week!

I've got fancy burning software on my home 'puter so I may have more luck than you with Anne's CD. If so, I'll happily send you a copy.

Excellent, thank you!

Oh I TOTALLY knew that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Axton enjoyed a second hurrah in the late Seventies, when her Fretone label issued Rick Dees' chart-topping "Disco Duck."

I have this as an mp3. Whenever I feel that I should be punished for some bad deed I've done, I play it.

I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine

Somewhere
Somehow
Sometime
Some place
I did someone wrong
And now I'm sufferin' with Disco Duck

That seems appropriate.

We had to do a dance in gym class to Disco Duck when I was in elementary school. It was traumatizing, but it was still better than the square dancing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I have a mix-cd question.

I am turning 30 in August and having a big party. As a party-type favor, I want to give out music CD's. They are fairly in expensive and fun. My 2 thoughts were:

Top 30 songs of 1974 or my favorite song from each year 1974-2004.

Which is better?
