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.

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

Hey, Hec, where's yr tagline from?

Hey superhottie Rio! P-Cow speaks true - it's Joss commentary from Firefly.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Aw yeah. Sounds like my street ball nickname. When we play two-on-two, it's all me and G-Dawg.

Is there a Nick Drake song called something like "Mayfair"? Because I've heard a song that may be titled something like that used in an ad for something twice. (Well, I've seen the ad twice and I still couldn't tell you what it was for.)

Yep. It's on Fruit Tree (the box) and Time Of No Reply (the outtakes).

Ha! That's an ad for my employer! (MetLife) Freaked me out when they played the set of ads at one of our employee assemblies.

Glad I wasn't mistaken -- he has a pretty distinctive voice -- have you seen this ad?

Me? I saw it at the employee meeting last year, but I can't remember anything about it other than the music. If I saw it again, I'd probably go "Oh yeah, that one."

Exactly -- I hear the song, I think "Oh, Nick Drake" and before I've figured out what the ad is -- it's gone. (I'm guessing that makes it a not very effective ad.)

You have assemblies? Man, just ascend already.

My reactions to various commercial co-options:

"Revolution" - Beatles for Nike: "I don't think that's the revolution he was talking about.'

"Pink Moon" - Nick Drake for VW: "Cool."

"Search and Destroy" - Iggy Pop for Nike: "Holy Shit! Vomiting!"

It's worse. They call them "Town Meetings".
