Somebody (tommyrot? Frankenbuddha? erinaceous?) put that Pixies song about Un Chien Andalou on his or her Buffistamix.

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.

Debaser. God I need to read more. I have been listening to that song for 15 years and had no idea that's what it was about (I at least have heard of the film). I am listening to it right now.

I think I have my song. Thanks, joe.

A quick google reveals that the part of the song that I have never had any clue what he was saying is actually "I am un chien Andalusia."
I had heard about the film - Bowie used it during concerts I think - but didn't know the name.

"The Dick Cavett Show: Rock Icons" is out on DVD.
In July 1970, for instance, "The Dick Cavett Show" featured a chat session with Sly and the Family Stone, Debbie Reynolds and tennis great Pancho Gonzales. Equally weird, a month earlier, was the joint appearance of Janis Joplin, Raquel Welch, news anchor Chet Huntley and the terminally suave Douglas Fairbanks Jr. The elderly Huntley was visibly sweet on Welch, and -- while taking hits from a long cigarette holder -- Joplin lectured Welch about underground cartoonist R. Crumb.

I saw that the other day. It doesn't have the famous Hendrix appearance on it, though.

Wherever I read about the DVDs it said that the John & Yoko interviews are coming out as a separate release; I assume Hendrix will, too. Does it have the Little Richard "HE GOT WHAT HE WANTED BUT HE LOST WHAT HE HAD!! SHUT UP!! SHUT UP!!" segment? That's the important question.

There's a Third Eye Blind song that mentions George Seurat's work, but I can't remember the name of it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Elvis Costello's Watching the Detectives is a meditation on Film Noir, but it doesn't name a specific film. Great song, though.
I don't know how much more of this I can take
