Thanks for the link to Erin on the radio. On a side note, one of the music geeks was talking about a great book he'd started reading the other day called Weird and Wonderful Words.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

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.

Hey, Joe, if you talk to the MC, could you ask her to call my cell?
The Scissors Sisters also do a great cover of "Comfortably Numb" as a dance tune, by the way.

Sure, Misha. We're supposed to get together tonight, but we haven't made specific plans. Want to join us?
"Comfortably Numb"
Many years ago, 1993 I think, I saw Tom Jones on VH-1 doing a cover of "Purple Rain," featuring David Gilmour on guitar. When he played the solo he sounded like Prince, but he also was unmistakably the guy who had played "Comfortably Numb." I wasn't a big Pink Floyd fan even back in the day (though I do have fond memories of Mr. Carlson asking Johnny Fever, who was playing Animals, "Do I hear dogs?" "I do," responded the bemused deejay), but I've always loved Gilmour.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
The Scissor Sisters wrote Kylie's ace new single "I Believe In You", which I actually prefer to any of their own stuff.

Check your e-mail, Joe.
My sister was a huge Floyd fan, so of course I could take them or leave them. But I do like "Comfortably Numb," both in the original and the Scissors mix.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
I just checked out that Kylie song, and it's awesome. Is it from an upcoming album, or just a one-off single?

It's the single release from her new two-disc greatest hits album.

Not being familiar with downloading, I don't know, but my guess is no. I could access my home e-mail from work, but I don't have a burner at work. Frell. Love the idea though. Was it an internet source originally (if you can say)?
eta Oh, and I've got friends with better hook-ups who can download and burn, so I could forward something from work to them and go at it that way.

Oh, okay! Forwarding will work. I'll upload it tomorrow.
I got it from someone, not sure where they got it from. I really need to buy their album, I was hoping Santa would bring it. :-)
