Spike ,'Never Leave Me'


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."

Sweet!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Hey David -- I got the glam mix yesterday. Thanks! A postal tip for you, though: Sending a CD priority mail for $3.85 is a waste of money. Use regular first class. It'll only cost a dollar and change and arrives just as fast.

Note to File: Jon unimpressed with Sense of Urgency thing

Thank you, though.

Bookslut plugs the High Hat, with special mention of Joe Boucher's xword.

I got Lash Larue and the symbolist/guitarist but missed other key fields. 19 across did make me laugh, though.

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

I'm listening to WFMU. They just played "Say Something New" by The Concretes. I liked the song so much I bought it from iTunes. So I was listening to a 128 kbps stream of the song while downloading a 128 kbps iTunes version of the same song.

God, I love technology.

Does anyone have an opinion on Taking Back Sunday? They're kind of a one-trick band -- the alternating vocalists -- but that trick really, really works for me. Is their newest album any good?

That's one of the reasons I love Linkin Park. I think I've heard one Taking Back Sunday song and wasn't too thrilled. Another band with more than one vocalist is The Stereo, though they don't switch off during the song usually, and I think one of them left after a while.

Oh, Eddie from Ohio has three vocalists. And I guess you already know the Beastie Boys.

I can never remember which songs are Linkin Park -- I kind of have them muddled with O.A.R. and Yellowcard and Limp Bizkit and all those other bands that I am too old and unhip to tell apart. I think there's one by them on the radio right now that I don't hate, but I think they usually get too screamy for me during the screamy parts (though I do like the alternating-vocalists part of the song I'm thinking of).

Yellowcard's gimmick is an electric violin. They're all right.

I think there's one by them on the radio right now that I don't hate, but I think they usually get too screamy for me during the screamy parts (though I do like the alternating-vocalists part of the song I'm thinking of).

I think the most recent single is "Lying from You," which has the line "The very worst part of me is you." And yeah, they get screamy, but Chester has a great scream. I really love Meteora, because pretty much every song is about identity issues, and that's a favorite theme of mine.
