Listener comments!
By the way, this is one of my favorite songs ever. It always makes me feel cozy.
Morning', Joe and all earthball dwellers.
You know what's a great buried powerpop song by someone you wouldn't expect?
Heaven Sent from INXS. From Welcome to Wherever You are.
(I missed the track.)
Oh, dude better spill some coffee on Kelis soon. She sounds too happy.
It doesn't get much press, but there is a really thriving artistic African-American community here. I used to work at the bus agency, and we'd do Black History Month events and people who were like file clerks and bus drivers would perform -great singers, tight jazz funk bands.
dammit, I'll have to listen on archives, doca.

Even though I have Irwin issues, he has done a hell of a job bringing people back from obscurity.
JOE AND PEOPLE.
contained the Crazy-Maker enzyme.
Waiter, bring me a crocodile sandwich and make it snappy.
One drunk Greek guy once told me "TEQUILA IS NOT LIKE AN ALCOOOHOLS. IT IS LIKE A DRUG!"
I buy that, since i would end up walking my wasted girlfriends home after 2 margaritas.
GASK
O
Rhubarb and vanilla jam. Your wife is the best.
Memories of jr high!
@βrian so many things are early this year. Blossoms especially.
But the cold sake is the primo stuff. Sake gets heated to hide the taste of lesser sake.
Limoncello is great with lemon ice cream!
That's where i know it from.
I know 2 places that makes killer limoncello. So good.
@Cecile, our daughter went there twice recently, nice. Since split with boyfriend so no more visits.
Quite decent stuff ...
meeteing at a party some dentist offered Richie Havens special treatment ...
then the manager became aware and totatally upset:
"dare you ever fix Richies teeth, his and my careers will be ruined!" ...
... hehe ... music biz .. voice and health.
They are more fragarant that regulat lemons. More juice, too.
Loved this!
See you!
Tschuess, Guido!
If you go to polka conventions, they have a polka mass. hahhahahah. church might actually be fun with that.
But I've always thought of classic Bhangra as the happiest music in the universe. (not the modern DJ perversion of it, but the old-timey acoustic stuff). . . .. short of that, Polka will do nicely.
My mom's record collection included the LP with Burt Bacharach's "Mexican Divorce," my vote for best pop song of all time.
Joe, just because it's known doesn't mean it's not great!
youtu.be...
They also look like twin Jemaine Clements.
The Noah movie seems like it would be better if it was a Cosby comedy routine.
Iced Mirth, Cheri.
Used to be on Netflix streaming, but apparently not anymore.
@V Priceless: I know who you mean, brilliant character too, the old Broadway hack. Used to appear on Billy Crystal's sendup of the Joe Franklin show, as I recall, but maybe he was on SCTV too.
