Hey, I own the soundtrack to Phantom of the Paradise and saw it at the Midnight Movies several times. Mmmm, Jessica Harper.
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.
Gambling -- How about that "Lucky, lucky, lucky, I should be so lucky, I should be so lucky in love" song? I know, that's not helpful, but that's all I've got of the thing, and now it's stuck in my head.
On a totally different topic, I saw the Magnetic Fields at Carnegie Hall the other night, and they sang "Reno Dakota" and dedicated it to their friend Reno Dakota, who they got to say "hi" from the mezzanine. It must be hard to meet new hipsters now if you're him.
Ooh, that's "I Should Be So Lucky" by Kylie Minogue, before she became goddess of the gay disco.
Her latest album, by the way, is really pretty darned great.
I love "Reno Dakota."
Except fuck, it's one hell of an earworm.
Hecubus! WHEN is the Quimby's event?!
Reno Dakota - is that a play on Reno, Nevada? 'Cos that's a great gambling song. I'd go with the Iain Matthews version, or the Fairport Convention.
You know, I have never registered that Reno isn't in Dakota, although that's one of my favourite songs on the album.
Angus, did you get mine yet? I sent it almost a month ago.
Sorry LJ--yes I have received it thanks!
Mmmm, Jessica Harper.
Not only hot, but she can take out a coven of witches while barely breaking a sweat.
I am going to continue to post about the CD exchange status because it is really all hinked up and although I am willing to just step in the middle and do a work around, I don't want to.
I have sent several people emails to determine where we are stuck. If things are not moving by the beginning of next week, I'll start some work arounds and will post about them here.
Getting CDs to Australia is still a big issue. One option at this point might be for everyone on the list to duplicate their CD and send it directly to Angus. Would that work for everyone?
