What was the first title?

No one will say. Dunno why.

I love the Chaka Khan title! Aka THE REVENGE OF DISCO!

By the way, re the Dido conversation in the last thread, two fun Dido facts:

(1) Eminem first heard "Thank You" (which he sampled for "Stan") on the soundtrack of the film Sliding Doors. Just try to picture Eminem watching Sliding Doors! Do you think he cried when the alt-Gwyneth died at the end?

(2) My sister once had a long chat with Dido at a party...which sounds unimpressive until you realise that this means I am two degrees of separation from Eminem!

For posterity, the initial title for this thread was:

Music II: "I'm down with the new music. And I have the albums to prove it."

For posterity, the initial title for this thread was:

Thank you. I was actually just wondering that.

I made my mix last night. Just want to give it a few more listens before it gets reburned and sent on its way.

And yes, I am verrah verrah fond of it.

Ok, so I have to thank the music thread denizens for bringing the Klymaxx special onto my tv radar because it was the most excellent thing on my screen in a looong while. A full on bitchy drama-fest from start to finish. But the absolute most totally awesome moment came when the smarmy host, Amir (Smarmir), went looking for the keyboard girl. He found her at her job in a generic downtown LA office building, but the security guards would not let Smarmir and the camera peeps inside, which was ridiculous because who really wants to watch Boney-T make the mail rounds at the bp offices anyway? Whatev. So then, Smarmir called keyboard girl's boss and the boss let him know that he could catch up with keyboard girl when she came downstairs to take her cigarette break. And if I'm keyboard girl, I would have ripped my boss a new one for giving out information about my personal habits to a total stranger over the phone. For all he knew, Smarmir could have been some psychopath Klymaxx stalker who planned to chop keyboard girl's head off and use it in some hideous sacrifice to the gods of cheesy 80's music. But I digress. So anyway, Smarmir catches up with keyboard girl smokin' outside, and then it happened. Keyboard girl tells Smarmir that she can't talk to him because, and I quote, "I've got a meeting." And of course I yell, "Is it in the ladies room?" and cackle like a mad thing. But it got even better because like five minutes later she said it again, "I've got a meeting" to which I replied, "Yeah you do. In the ladies room!" It was awesome. I can't believe Smarmir didn't give the shout out that all Klymaxx fans were waiting for, although keyboard girl might have taken offense and refused to play the reunion gig, which was the ultimate goal. And that's probably why Smarmir is a VH1 host and I'm not.

So the rest of the show was good, but that was the high water mark. And I promise not to post anything elsa about Klymaxx for the next couple of days.

Mostly done with the mix, but I haven't quite gotten a couple of good transitional parts together yet for sufficient flow. Do we have to go in order?

Do we have to go in order?

That was the general consensus.

Mine is not done. I am a deadline driven gal and I'm sure I won't be done til I have to be. But, I already know I have one frighteningly abrupt transition that I can do nothing about.

"Go in order" -- meaning, put the songs in the msbelle-dictated order?

If so, yes.

That was the general consensus.

Well, shoot. Maybe I'll use some of my policy wonk logical magic to make it seem like one topic is another.
