Xander ,'Touched'
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.

Hello! Just wanted to squee at how unexpectedly adorable Rufus Wainwright seems to be on the DVD of him live at Fillmore. Bless. Bless on toast.
What's Martha like? I've heard good things about her too, albeit in quite a different style. Any girl who writes a song to her dad entitled Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole deserves a certain respect, I think. Should I pick up a Martha CD tomorrow?

I'd rather support Moog's company or the soon-to-be-established foundation in Moog's memory than some dude looking to cash in on Moog's death.

t edit To clarify, I find the content a bit tasteless as well, but there have been many deaths for which I've passed on a tasteless joke, so I can't criticize. What I object to is the profiteering.
After having heard Rhett Miller tell the story of Black Francis hearing and liking Satellite Rides, I think of him as Charles now. As in "It's sort of like the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, you know? I mean, Kurt Cobain is dead. And even if he wasn't, he'd defer to Charles, because he was in the fuckin' Pixies!"
Martha Wainwright's stuff is good if folkier than Rufus's. (And yes, he is quite the showman.) She's better live than on record so far, I think: I haven't been crazy about the production on her CDs.
Insent and thanks, Hec - as Sugar Shock is about the only tape I own that MrsJim genuinely loves, that'll be a present fot both of us. When I remember and am at home, I'll send the Chris Morris Pixies parody to Buffistarawk.
Ah-ha-ha, Ah-ha-ha, muy Madre es un Whora/Ah-ha-ha, Ah-ha-ha Muy Espanol es muy Pora.

Funny as hell (as well as a dead-on parody). But definitely NSFW.
Have they got the REM Whale one? I think that's if possible even funnier.
No, but you might want to look at the third thing on the list on that page I linked to above.
Yeah, I will - I had never heard of him before, and he sounds amazing.
is it my turn for Buffistarawk's unconventional love songs yet? I finally figured out what I'm putting up ...
Thanks so much for that "Pixies" song!
