This would be an actual stone wouldn't it?
Yes. The one with "Think Different" scratched into it with another stone.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

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.

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

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And you have NO idea how hard it is for me to burn a CD with an actual stone.
Well, first you have to put your stone on a fire. Then there's the pounding to get each digital pit exactly so...

Up with the sun
To (ahem) completely change the subject...
I want to make a mix of love songs for my husband for Valentine's Day. They should be romantic, but not drenched in sap. (Like, it's okay if it's technically a breakup song, or if one of the lovers ends up dead.) His taste in music is all over the place; he likes traditional folk, but also a fair amount of new wave/'80's English music for smart people (Joy Division, XTC, the Police, etc.), and he's obsessive about Elvis Costello. Any suggestions? I have some ideas, but could use more...

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
LJ, "Sunrise" by the Who.
Of course, my taste is suspect, because I quite like "Walking on Sunshine."

It's sappy - but it's my fave : "All I Want is You" by U2
SA - I started to burn those discs for you and then I wasn't positive what your in-the-country or out status was. I could have e-mailed - sorry - I'm a big lazy slacker. You still want em? I know you said the Dave and Tim Reynolds shows - which I burned already - but I honestly can't remember what else. Remind me and I'll burn them and get em out this week.

Ann, that's a ferret.
The sound is pure sap, but it's a breakup song -- "Leave Right Now" by Will Young.
Also, a lot of stuff from the '60s would be up that alley. Comes to mind -- "Don't Sleep in the Subway" by Petula Clark, "For Once in My Life" by Stevie Wonder (lyrics = sap, but hidden by great Motown sound), "Words of Love" by the Mamas and the Papas, "I Got Rhythm" by the Happenings, "Let's Hang On" by the 4 Seasons. "I Can Hear Music" by the Beach Boys is probably too much sap, but it's such a well-put together single.

My buddy John's band the Dexateens just had an album come out on Estrus that's getting very good press. I'm glad people are noticing it. It rocks like Hank Sr fronting the Stooges, and I'm a big fan of redneck punk.

I like that song, but I'm not sure I like it as much as "Sweetest Thing" or their cover of "Everlasting Love." Decisions, decisions...
