Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

'Underneath'


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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Makes note to look for Kate Bush boxed set since just about everything I have is still vinyl.

Oh, and I love Kate Bush (and Tori Amos and Bjork as well),

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Does that mean I have to throw out my Justin Timberlake and Robbie Williams CDs?

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Doesn't everyone own The Dreaming and Hounds of Love?

And these are by whom?

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Kate Bush.

I know, I know. I shouldn't blindly make those assumptions. But it's like me trying to wrap my brain around the idea that not everyone owns Disintigration by The Cure.

Ooops. I am familiar with The Sensual World. And....that's about it.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

The Decemberists did a song about Myla Goldberg? Cool. Is it good?

Catchy. Also featuring the refrain "funiculi funicula," which is a reference to an old song about trains, I think.

Up with the sun

Joe, thanks for your response. I think my idea was something that, while more or less true for me, falls apart if I try to turn it into any sort of Grand Statement, as many such things do.

Kate, I'm embarrassed to admit I did not even know Myla Goldberg was a real person. Now I'm going to find out Leslie Anne Levine was one, too. And I don't know if "The Tain:" is actually related to Irish Mythology,sorry. I do know it's twenty. freaking. minutes. long.

I think the only Kate Bush song I know is "Running Up That Hill."

I'm just full of Lack of Knowledge today.

Lyra, Myla Goldberg wrote Bee Season and has a new book out about Prague, I think. I enjoyed Bee Season quite a bit.

Also, your tag makes me giggle every time I read it.

Hee. What does an Arty Pop Girl wear?
