Grand Ole Party - Humanimals

I had to listen to this again after reading their MySpace bulletin about breaking up. I was really excited to hear the new album they were recording, too. Grrrr.

Fiona Apple - When the Pawn...

It had been a while. Still my favorite Fiona album.

Oh, you mean: "When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks like a King What He Knows Throws the Blows When He Goes to the Fight and He'll Win the Whole Thing Fore He Enters the Ring There's No Body to Batter When Your Mind Is Your Might So When You Go Solo, You Hold Your Own Hand and Remember That Depth Is the Greatest of Heights and If You Know Where You Stand, Then You'll Know Where to Land and If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You Know That You're Right"?

I was a big Fiona Apple fan and loved "Tidal"... but naming her next album a paragraph of text like she did was not all that different in my mind from Prince changing his name to something unpronounceable. And this after she railed on stage for fans to not give stars too much thought?

But now that you mention it, maybe I'll pop it on today and see if I actually like the music. I don't remember!

Good luck.

Wow that was quiet a walk down the nostalgia dance floor!

I have especially fond memories of Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart." No matter what girl you were dancing with, this song just seem to make girls, even ones way out of your league, melt into you like butter. It was always a song I wished would never end.

Edit:
CV, you need to renew the lost power of this song in your quest for your unattainable Colaire. That is, if you can convince a DJ to actually dig it up and play it somewhere where you are at. It's the ultimate weapon!

I do like that song.

The first time I heard that was watching “Friday Night Videos” in the BEQ of one of our docs (Corpsman). A guy had knocked on the door and asked to use the docs bathroom and walked in carrying a big laundry bag. Well he’d been in there awhile and I had used beer to get rid of so I knocked on the door to see what was taking so long. He said come in…and as soon as I opened the door the smell hit me. He had the whole bathtub full of this plant material weighing out baggies of it. Tossed a bag to me and said to give it to the doc for letting him use the room. So dancing is not the first memory that song brings to mind.

So how did the song sound after the bag?

IMO everything worth listening to sounds better after the bag.

There's probably a scientific explanation for that. I'm not a scientist.
