Anyone looking for a band name? Hasselhoffian Recursion is up for grabs.
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

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.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.
Folks -- check out Andrew Bird at Better Propaganda ... I'm really liking "A Nervous Tic Motion of the Head to the Left". [link]
The only thing better would be if Andrew Bird performed as "The Hasselhoffian Recursion."

My husband and I have long had the theory that he's attempting to record in every genre known to man. I think all he has left at this point is rap and death metal.

True. Also, I'm not sure he's ever made a samba record.
But he's not 50 yet, so there is still time.
