It's a Chinnichap song, IIRC.
Sure is. "Ready Steve?" "Uh-huh..."
Fred: The size and depth of the wound indicate a female vampire. Harmony: Or gay! Fred: Um…it doesn't really work like that.
'Harm's Way'
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.

I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine
you could just listen to samples at Amazon.com
Harry Shearer played Cullum's cover of "The Wind Cries Mary" on Le Show last week & the archive has the whole song. (Click the link to hear the entire show and scroll over to the 8 minute mark.) I'm with Jim on the assessment, but listen & decide for yourself.
Speaking of Le Show, check out this week's clip of the off air (but recorded) chatter between Larry King and the Bushes. Laura: "That was the wild night when everybody was drinking?"
Speaking of "hey, pal, this is the music thread"... David, Hayden & any Charlie Rich and/or Mystery Train fans (the Greil Marcus book, not the Elvis song), I was listening to the Charlie Rich obit set on The Hound and I was really struck by the version of "I Feel Like Going Home" played at the end. I've never heard the version Marcus talks about at length in the book, but was thinking maybe this was it. When the back up singers came in, though, it was clear that this is from the Pictures and Paintings sessions. Granted I haven't listened to the album in a long time, but I really think this is an alternate -- and much better -- version. Maybe I'm wrong and this is the album track -- but I always found that one vaguely disappointing, and this one is so good. Anyway, I strongly recommend clicking the link & listening to it.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Shows I'm going to in upcoming months:
- Sebadoh (Lou and Jason only)
- Pixies
- Guided by Voices
- PJ Harvey (again in Oct. per Ms. Harvey herself at last night's Knitting Factory show)
So excited!

The Sweet, huh? That's the version I have, but I couldn't believe it was the original, because, well, it sounds like the Rocky Horror version. Huh. Who knew?
I am going to no shows; having missed Dar Williams at the Birchmere I must observe a period of sulking for a month.

I'm sure she'll be touring Greece this fall. Or was that Nana Mouskouri?

Yeah, I get them confused too.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My mother at one stage, with the glasses she wore and her hairstyle, was a dead ringer for Nana Mouskouri. Which, all things considered, is better than one's father looking like Demis Roussos.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
Yes, Tracy Ullman covered "They Don't Know..." but Kirsty MacColl wrote it, and her version of it opens her great compilation Galore.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.
Heh. And here I was thinking for months that a country music version of "They Don't Know" would be brilliant!
