Kaylee ,'Jaynestown'
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'm afraid I'm coming off really badly this morning.
Not at all.
Lemme see what I can dig up.
born in omaha - immed. moved to Dallas - moved to Portland at 12 (where his Dad lived).
That was kind of a fun little hunt actually - found some reviews and articles I hadn't seen before.
Actually looks like he was living in Dallas right up until he went to high school and Dallas is where he took his first music lessons and started drinking - which are both pretty significant, I guess.
I'm a bad skimmer.
After watching the Grammys last night, I am even more convinced that every singer who insists on singing 500 notes instead of 1 should be shot. Or at least be given a time out. Christina Aguilera just massacred her own pretty little song.
Justin Timberlake: Bandleader! That rocked.
I was disappointed by Prince, but I think it was just because Beyonce was there. Why???
So did those Beatles tribute guys rehearse at all? Wrong chords, the drummer lost the beat, and Dave Matthews just should not sing that high.
Outkast, the White Stripes and the funk thing rocked very hard, however.

This was the only thing I saw on the Grammys last night and I had to flip the channel in about 15 seconds because I knew that it was making the baby Jesus cry.
Because I am evil and can't stand Jenniver Love and it is making everyone at work laugh - check this out: fire that stylist sweetie
Jennifer Hate Hewitt really, really needs to go away. Really.
I was sorting through a box of unmarked VHS tapes yesterday and discovered a recording I'd made of Elliott Smith's appearance on the Oscars. Three thoughts:
Jennifer Hate Hewitt really, really needs to go away. Really.
Agreed - but she can stick around if she is going to provide such great fodder for my evil mocking of her. Dear lord, why didn't someone say something to her?
The juxtaposition of him being followed immeditely by Celine was just bizarre
What a horribly sad loss.
I often see it called "the most surreal moment in Oscar history" which, if you think about it, is quite something. And before him was Trisha Yearwood right? And they were all on stage at the sametime....god he must have been freaked out.
Yeah - really really tragic especially when you read interviews with the people that were working with him at the time that he died that said he was the happiest, most productive he had ever been. And the fact that he was clean for the first time in a long time, no drugs were found in his system. Sad.
Alicia, has my mix arrived yet?
And before him was Trisha Yearwood right?
That sounds right. There was a third, but I couldn't remember her name.
And they were all on stage at the sametime
They each came out separately to do abbreviated versions of their songs, then all three came out together, held hands (with Elliott being the meat of the diva sandwich) and bowed.
....god he must have been freaked out.
Definitely.
