Stephanie--it's a famous Hawaiian singer whose name I can't spell
Thanks so much, Robin! The hivemind is an amazing thing, especially when it turns out that the singer is a man and the song I was thinking of does have words.
I wear the cheese. It does not wear me.

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.

Jon, I didn't seee it as snarky, so no worries.
Mostly it's just that the name didn't mean anything to me until I read that she was in that dog., which I only found out this week.

Are you ready to be strong?
Man, if your fiancé finds out you've got a boyfriend, he's so gonna kick his ass.
Ha. I still have a hard time saying FIANCÉ. He's like somewhere between boyfriend and fiancé still; I call him my Beyoncé.

Do you make him do the jiggle dance?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
the idea of Bob Saget doing the bootylicious dance may make my head explode. But now I think the crazy in love horn section should follow him around everywhere.

Come to think of it I do have a lot in common with Jay-Z. I also have beef with Nas, for starters.

Yo, msbelle, I posted this in Bitches (I think) but I've got a sooper sekrit message for you: I got a fever...and the only prescription...is more cowbell.
Also: BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

FRANK! you finally watched it. I don't read Bitches, so thanks for re-posting.
My brother just saw it for the first time and did not find it as funny as I had built it up.

how's the Petra Haden now that you've had some time w/ it?
I agree with the consensus that it's not something I'm going to listen to often, but it's very cool how she found some great low-key elements of the songs to emphasize. It's sort of like a good essay about a great book: when I get back to the original album, I hear new things thanks to Petra Haden.
LJ: I just got the thatdog album recently from a friend. I like it, but I like her solo album with Bill Frisell better. She also sings on a couple of Mike Watt's albums, including his proggy last one. She's also Charlie Haden's daughter, if you're curious.
I haven't heard Antony & the Johnsons yet, but y'all are making me want to.

If I only had a brain...
Hee. I just unwrapped Johnny Cash's American Songs and played "Delia's Gone" while taking my daughter to high school.
I think her eyebrows went straight through her hairline and kept going.
