'Touched'


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.

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

I just googled myself and came up with not one, but two websites for chick folksingers with variants (Katie and Katherine) on my name. Suddenly I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

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

Suddenly I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

Or maybe you just need a new name. How about Tigerina McSlappy!

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

How about Tigerina McSlappy!

I like it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'm listening now, but I missed most of it.

It's already been archived (same link).

Brian Wilson? Post-Smile?

Sorry. Don't get it.

Dude, they even had a skit about it on SNL. During Brian's Eugene Landry days he'd sit at the piano which was set in a giant sandbox. He'd sit there with his feet in the sand while trying to write.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Suddenly I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

Only if you try to go into folk singing.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I'm assuming that Jon is screwing with me. For anyone who really doesn't get it, this link should clear things up.

The Smile sessions were, for the most part, a playful and experimental group of songs that veered wildly into some comical, yet beautiful moments. Brian had his piano set-up inside a sandbox in his living-room and he had the entire crew don toy fire helmets for the recording of Ms. O'Leary's Cow. Songs like Vega-tables giddily extolled the virtues of our plant friends, while Heroes and Villians told the story of a happy family man looking back on his wild west days. Cabinessence was (vaguely) about railroads, and Do You Like Worms was about western expansion by colonialists. Smile's most beautiful tracks were the airy Wind Chimes, and Wonderful, a moving song about a young girl's loss of virginity.

Or this link:

Before the fall, it feels like a race against time, a race to get songs like "Good Vibrations" and "God Only Knows" from Wilson's head onto records before he succumbs to the years of playing a piano in a sandbox or staying in bed day after day.

And those are two of the first that pop up after a brief google search.

Oh, yeah?! Well.... Fire Engines to you, buster!

(thanks for the explanation though)

Seriously, Hayden, I had no idea. My Beach Boys knowledge is fairly limited. Except I know that it wasn't a theremin on Good Vibrations.

Heh. I'm no longer a Fire Engines ignormamus, however, since you included it on the mix.

Only if you try to go into folk singing.

Kate's been a folksinger since she was in her early teens.
