	9:04am @sugarwolf@: hello all
	♥ 9:04am Ken From Hyde Park: Psst! A certain mammoth tells me the station is within $10,000 of the goal. I heard your song on the app while I was shopping Sunday night. Sounded good. I need to check the video archive and catch up on the sights I missed.
	9:08am annie: good morning everyone. just passing through the comments section; packing up to go back home from a cat-sit job. 2 very spoiled cats, flouncing and strutting and the like.
	9:08am bobdoesthings: goodmorning modernworld!
	♥ 9:10am Ken From Hyde Park: @annie - Those cats have never had it so good...assuming you treated them to plenty of WFMU.
	9:10am Wild Neil: Good morning Trouble et al! PEACE be unto you all...
	9:10am kevlicki: Good morning trouble!

	♥ 9:15am melinda: hello Trouble & folks!
	♥ 9:16am Trouble: good morning merry listeners! we should be very proud of ourselves... almost there!
	9:24am braveness23: LOL, I was sitting here listening to Minnie Riperton enjoying the bells in the song. Then I realized the bells weren't in the song but were my front door bell perfectly in key and time with the song. It was a little neighbor boy with two plastic toy guns in hand asking if my daughter was here. Sadly my daughters spring break does not coincide with all of neighborhood kids break.
	9:26am timotato: This sounds like Marisa Monte singing in the chorus. What is this song?
	9:30am bobdoesthings: finally some recognition for listening! thank YOU trouble
	♥ 9:31am Uncle Michael: It was great to meet you Trouble.
	♥ 9:31am Uncle Michael: You didn't embarrass yourself!
	9:32am @sugarwolf@: I thought the ear plugs were a style choice!
	9:33am thedunkel: you dropped the drake the only way the drake could be dropped - perfection!
	♥ 9:33am melinda: You were great, Trouble!
	♥ 9:37am Jeff Golick: I, too, dug your Drake.
	♥ 9:38am Jeff Golick: I find I am startlingly obsessed with seeing what happens to our spear-carrying Cro-Mag once (if?) the goal is met. Anyone else?
	9:40am Cooh John: Thank you for being you, Trouble. You are an ear full.
	♥ 9:42am Trouble: thanks guys! i am not fishing for compliments, I realize the fun of karoake is not be able to actually sing the tune. all good, that is until i saw the green ear plugs popping out. i laughed, and i cried. :) and great to meet you @uncle michael!!
	♥ 9:43am geegee vindaloo: Love love love to all.
	♥ 9:46am rebuketodali: Always love hearing stuff from this compilation!
	♥ 9:51am MD: Good Morning!!! We are the 99%!!!
	9:56am Dean: This is one of my favorite Nina Simone recordings...and one of her least favorite.
	9:57am timotato: Very cool that she was doing reggae back in the 70s. Nils Lofgren did a pretty good cover of this Randy Newman song as well.
	9:58am Juliette G.: Oh Baltimore. Ain't it hard just to live? Who knew Nina S. blessed Bmore with a thought. Crazy bass!
	♥ 10:03am Trouble: today's art work is by fab WFMU listener Peter Gross who has a show up in Seattle right now at Linda Hodges
	10:14am josh: LIFE WITHOUT BUILDINGS!
	♥ 10:15am Trouble: this song lyrics, as poem songmeanings.com...

	10:16am josh: this is one of my all-time favourite songs. thanks so much for playing it!
	♥ 10:17am Trouble: smiley face @ josh
	♥ 10:17am Devin B.: Is the line "I like you mostly late at night" a reference to Robert Wyatt's "Sea Song?"
	10:21am Wild Neil: Tall Dwarves reminds me of the Mamas and the Papas and The Monkees in the best possible way.
	♥ 10:26am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, all! FANTASTIC job on Sunday, Trouble!
	♥ 10:28am Trouble: thanks greg. i am thinking of giving up my day job and becoming a canadian hip hop sensation...
	10:34am Emilsagroforest: My man Dave Nelson can play!
	♥ 10:35am Trouble: @emilsagroforest: do you know dave? i love that album!! i'd love to have him out to WFMU
	♥ 10:36am Brian in UK: Hello Trouble. Just stay as you are a SENSATION.
	♥ 10:37am Trouble: merci @Brian!
	10:41am Emilsagroforest: I do and I will certainly relay the message... and thank you again for all you do for us every Tuesday, we love you very much and you feel like family in our little house!
	♥ 10:42am Trouble: awesome and that is so sweet to hear @emilesagroforest!
	10:47am bobdoesthings: @trouble - ever thought of switching up your birds and using a lyrebird (the bird that can mimic nearly any type of sound including chainsaws, digital sounds, ringtones, cassette sounds, camera shutter sounds etc etc - www.youtube.com... )
	♥ 10:49am listener james from westwood: 40 Bowen St., Providence, has some dirty graffiti on the street in front of it. Perhaps they were awaiting the Google Maps truck? www.google.com...
	♥ 10:50am Mick: "What Happened Miss Simone" wrecked me. Amazing. Heartbreaking, but amazing.
	10:56am emily: Good morning Trouble! and friend. Am listening live this morning! No school. Spring break!
	♥ 10:57am Brian in UK: Still getting over the shocking bombing in Brussels this morning.
	♥ 10:58am geegee vindaloo: So this morning I put on the show and your voice and the music was coming through about 85% slower and lower pitched. For about an hour I listened figuring that this was your expression of being tired from the past two weeks of fundraising. After an hour I checked to see if there was something weird with my pop up player and that was it. This is why I love FMU, a place where it seems perfectly normal to hear music and DJs at low speed.
	11:00am Van in DC: yeah, flash frequently has issues
	11:00am emily: love the art work!
	11:00am βrian: "Trouble Lentissimo"
	♥ 11:06am Trouble: that was awful to hear @ brian in UK
	11:08am Jay/London: @ Brian in the UK yes in so much shock ... what's going on !!!
	♥ 11:09am Brian in UK: This may have been posted before by FMU's Jesse Jarnow about Wayfaring Strangers. www.relix.com...
	♥ 11:11am Brian in UK: Hi Jay, just be thankful it is not here...yet. Reminds me when I was working in London when the IRA was bombing. One went off in the next street to me. SO LOUD. This is a different level.
	11:16am bpdun88: Love the artwork. Missed artist's name. Anybody?
	11:16am Parq: GeeGee V: I can't tell you how many times something like that has happened to me. Once, the Flash player was buffering weird, so that I was getting only intermittent blips of sound coming through at a slow pulse. I must have listened to it for two minutes before it occurred to me that something might be wrong. It didn't help that I had Bryce's show on at the time.
	11:16am Fred: Hell Yeah, wolves!!
	11:18am βrian: I was under the impression that all things Flash had been retired. (Out of date and insecure.)
	♥ 11:18am Jeff Golick: Via Trouble: "today's art work is by fab WFMU listener Peter Gross who has a show up in Seattle right now at Linda Hodges"
	♥ 11:23am geegee vindaloo: If today were Wednesday ( Ken ), I would expect the speed and pitch change. I went and fixed the player when I realized it was Tuesday.
	11:29am bpdun88: Thank you, Jeff.
	11:32am soup and fog: It's fun to try and hear English words in this tune
	11:37am SeanG: diggin' the new Santigold!
	11:46am βrian: Sometimes I want subtitles.
	♥ 11:48am Brian in UK: Beautifully mispronounced.
	11:49am βrian: So is that a veery in the background?
	11:49am just dc pat: I think it is Brian
	♥ 11:50am Priscilla: 2 baby eaglets! www.eagles.org...
	11:50am mink: hi all! Quick question: how often does the caveman animation get updated?
	♥ 11:53am Brian in UK: Great show, Trouble. Would love to see the total reached on Ken's show.
	♥ 11:53am Brian in UK: @mink every second millenium.
	11:56am Roger: Egg!!!
	11:56am steve portland: thanks for the eagle link. birds are our friends!
	♥ 11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Bye bye, birdies! See you next week.
	♥ 12:00pm Trouble: cheeeeerio!

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from March 22, 2016

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.
