Love and Love Lost, by the Ryan Montbleau Band. If you haven't heard of them, look them up on i-Tunes. You won't be sorry, they're great!

Radio was playing Joe Jackson's "Sunday Papers"  - that's one of those songs you hear so rarely, that when you do you say - out loud - "I love this song!"

That song is great Holly. Pink Floyd too, and Jim Croce, and the Ryan Montbleu Band, and Jackson Browne, and James Taylor, and that crazy awesome Living in a Box song, and the Wallflowers, and that Southside Johnny and the Ashbury Jukes, and Joe Jackson!

Rosemary Butler and Doug Haywood make that song ridiculously good PaWolf. "We got Richard Pryor on video" So good.

Are you sure you're not Mr. Aleen incognito?  LOLTongue  Here Come the Warm Jets is such a great album.  I've only gotten into Brian Eno recently, but he has some great stuff, I tell you!  There is a really good cover version of Needles In the Camel's Eye by a band called the Wolfmen.  Marco Pirroni from Adam and the Ants is in the band.  It's a really good, straightforward cover of the song.
 
 
That's an amazing Nico song you posted.  To be honest, I've only really explored her work with the Velvet Underground but have always meant to get into her solo stuff.  She intrigues me.  I read a biography on her years ago and her story is really sad but fascinating.

I might have to download that version, Aleen.
 
Y'know, there's a live album with Eno and Nico (also John Cale and Kevin Ayers).  It's called June 1, 1974, and---well, here's some info on it:

Oh, and I just listened to an Adam and the Ants song earlier.  Crackpot History.
 
But I listened to this one three times:

"Inner Voice (with Sudden Death)" by  http://www.wormquartet.com/ - Worm Quartet .
 
It has lyrics like "It's time to find out what urinal mints taste like" and "How old does a baby need to be before it's too big to flush down the toilet?"
 
The lyrics for "Inner Voice..." are:
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
I'm happily married with a house and three mistresses
Even with the beard I'm not as hairy as my sister is
Got a new Hummer, two Ferraris, and some Lexuses
And all the girls I know got the big, big breasteses
I got a ten story mansion on the beach
With a swimmin' pool filled up with the drool of Robin Leach
Richer than a Twinkie, I got so much cash
That to me, Paris Hilton is poor white trash
I take forty-seven weeks of vacation a year
If people piss me off, I can make 'em disappear
Every time I sneeze, I get a feature on the news
The reporter says "gesundheit" and hilarity ensues
And how did I get to be the man that I am?
A god among men, only without the tan
It's simple, every time I have to make a choice
I just listen to my little inner voice, and he says

"Shave all the hair off your butt and glue it to your nostrils"

OK
 
"Steal all the milk from all the supermarkets and put it back in the cows"
 
Alright
 
"Find out which species of rodent is the most flammable"
 
OK
 
"Let's see what fun crafts we can make using only a chainsaw and Regis Philbin"
 
Yeah!
 
So how do I explain my little cranial expressions
Intuition, premonition, or demonic possession?
It could be God, an angel, or my dead uncle Paul
Or that nasty purple fuzzy thing that lives in my wall
Doesn't matter, and to be honest, I don't wanna know
'Cause thanks to him, I've never had to deal with an HMO
And I can go show off my rocket powered solid gold Benz
I tell ya, life is so much nicer with invisible friends
 
"Record an all-banjo Falco tribute album"

Done, and done.
 
"Put on a tutu, glue two live wiener dogs to your face, and prance around the subway terminal screaming 'Stop looking at me!'"

OK
 
"There's no reason not to have sex with a cheese grater."

Hmm, no, I suppose not.
 
"Set up a stand outside of K-Mart with a plate full of frozen peas and a sign reading 'Take one!' If anyone asks you what the hell you're doing, give them a button that says 'I asked about the peas!'"
 
He's become my best friend, sticks with me to the end
Thanks to him, I'll never live on ramen noodles again
And he's always by my side, every minute, every hour
Though it does get kinda creepy when I'm trying to take a shower
Still I can't complain 'cause he made me rich
And figured out it was the opossum milk that made me itch
If it seems weird, remember the voice made me do it
I don't question what he says; I just get up and get to it
 
"Itemize everything in your cat's litter box for the next seven years and mail a report to the President with a note saying 'Here!'"

Good idea
 
"It's time to find out what urinal mints taste like"

If you say so

"Get a black and white horizontally striped suit, a mask, and a bowling ball with a small length of rope hanging from it, and tiptoe around the airport."
 
Sounds like fun

"How old does a baby need to be before it's too big to flush down the toilet?"
 
I don't know. Let's find out.

"Keep swallowing magnets until your farts can erase video tapes."
 
Will do
 
So to that guy in my head, I just wanna say thanks
For removin' my angst, so I'm no longer shootin' blanks
And now I own several banks, plus an inflatable watch
And paid Justin Timberlake to let me kick him in the crotch
I followed his advice and now I'm makin' major duchets
If it wasn't for him, I'd still be processing McNuggets
So when life makes you feel like you should've stayed in bed
Just listen to the voice in your head, and he'll say
 
"Fat people are full of toys. Go get some!"
 
Yeah!
 
"Build a 20 foot tall nude statue of Tony Goldmark licking warm margarine off a malnourished dolphin out of onions, pez, and lint."
 
With pleasure!
 
"If Yanni didn't want to be set on fire and shoved down a flight of stairs, surely he would have said so explicitly by now."

Yeah, I guess so.
 
"Go to a McDonald's Playland, tie that big Officer Big Mac thing to the back of your car, and drive away at 90 mph. When a cop pulls you over, roll down the window and indignantly ask 'WHAT?!?'"

You got it!
 
"Move to New Jersey and become a comedy rap artist."

Oh... do I have to?

I saw part of that movie & you're right, it was awesome.
 
Puts you in mind of the Black Dahlia case.
 
Ever hear of a book called "Hollywood Babylon"?

The song reminds me of college.  We played it a lot.  Also, Mr. Soul by Buffalo Springfield and Funk 49 by the James Gang.

Women and men certainly do gravitate towards different types of music.

I know, Mad, me too.  Unfortunately, there weren't any really great-sounding videos of it on YouTube.  Their volume is all too low.

Yeah, the difference is that men gravitate towards good music. Wink
 
The only thing worse than womens' taste in music is their taste in movies. LOL
 
I'm gonna run away & hide for awhile.

ShockedShockedShocked Actually, Jimbo, I'm a clsasic rock fan who wouldn't be caught dead walking into a "Romantic Comedy". The last 2 movies I saw in the theater were both Clint Eastwood flicks (Gran Torino and Million Dollar Baby).
 
Then again, I always traveled to the beat of a different drum...LOL

Even if a song or a movie brings a tear to my eye (which they don't, by the way), I wipe it away with 50-grit sandpaper.

Ahhh, yes.... Human League. Funny, I was just thinking about them like, yesterday.
 
Great name for a band. Clap
 
This is my favourite (note the way I spelled "favourite") Human League song & video.
 
Back in '83 when it first came out, I saw this video maybe a couple of times & fell madly in love with the dark haired girl singer. But as many times as I sat & forced myself to watch MTV, both in '83 & again years later during those video countdown shows they used to do, with my VCR poised & ready just hoping to get lucky enough for this video to come on so I could tape it, it never did.
 
Then, along comes the internet & then YouTube & voila!!!!
 
 
Just something about those big, dark eyes of hers..... HeartHeartHeart
 
Of course, I saw them in another more recent video of a live performance & they're all middle aged & she's gotten kinda tubby.
 
But then again, so have I.
 
((sigh....)) The magic's all gone.
 
Screw  it. Here's the link. Apparently the a-holes have the embedding feature disabled.

CryYou should be ashamed of yourself for doing that to us. I'm thinkin' you're simply upset because you didn't get to go hang around the Girls' Locker Room at school, today - and you wanted us to suffer, too.
