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 love the 3 or 4 MG albums I do have, and I know I'd love the new one, too.

Oh, I would trade you a .zip of the new one for a .zip of your favorite of the earlier ones....

Sounds good! Have you ever heard Zopilote Machine? Do you have gmail (my mp3 trading email of preference)?

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Wait, wait. Why did I lose mine, then?

Um, 'cos I was all sleep-deprived and cranky yesterday?

It's blatant goth-ism, I tell you

I'm going to see Faith & the Muse tonight. Mmmm, swirlygoth music.

So last night, the Pixies were awesome -- as expected -- but TV on the Radio blew me away. I'm normally wary of NYC hipster bands because they're so often overhyped, but these guys deserve all the praise I have heard about them. Stellar live, anyhow.

Hayden -- no, and yes - michelet at ....

Have we discussed the rumor of the Throwing Muses mini-reunion to open for the Pixies here in NY one night next week?

Misha: cool.

LJ: TV on the Radio are pretty damn good on album, too. I especially like the Young Liars EP (which includes an a capella version of Mr. Grieves).

Good lord, if that were true I would hitchhike to NYC and beg for a ticket just to see it. Throwing Muses are my favorite artist I have never seen live. (I keep meaning to see Kristen Hersh, as she does tour, but she's never been here at a good time for me.)

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

No. And let's not. Otherwise envy will give me a nasty rash.

eta to add missing mystery word.

Hmm, maybe "Otherwise, Envy, will me a nasty rash!" Nope, I still don't get it.

Buffista music help requested here:

I'm earwormed an early-to-mid-90s alt-rock-pop song, but I don't know what it's called or who it's by. This song comes back to haunt me every couple years and it's starting to drive me nuts. It sounds a bit like a cross between the Spin Doctors and the Meat Puppets' more accessible material (hell, it could be the Meat Puppets for all I know). The chorus goes something vaguely like this.

keep thinkin' it'll be all right if I just get on (off?) the road/in a moment I can free my worried mind/[....]pray for the day when I lose my heavy load/then I wouldn't have to leave you behind

Beyond that, I've just got a couple words here and there. I can't reach fifteen-year-old me on the phone for comment. Any ideas?
