	9:07am adrian in mpls: Slits Typical Girls somewhere in this set?
	♥ 9:07am Phillippe Bastille: Hey Joe, I heard your "Treehorn" read Saturday morning. Excellent. It's not a tale about a young Jackie Treehorn, is it?
	9:07am Creature Boy: That's Tom Petty of course on backing vocals. Nice to hear the 45! Gots to get me a copy
	♥ 9:08am Joe McG: Take a glance at Sophisticated Boom Boom's playlist from Friday to get the idea: wfmu.org...
	♥ 9:09am Matt Fiveash: Now play the fast version!
	♥ 9:09am The Oscar: This Coasters tune is a distorted guitar away from being a Nobunny song.
	9:10am Booz: Love the call and response between the shows. Will we be naming names with name songs today?
	9:11am Creature Boy: The Know!
	♥ 9:11am tadpoles: Excellent Joe...a neat companion piece....looking forward to them all.
	♥ 9:12am Cmurtha: Good morning on this set of "girl centric goodness" if I may steal Sheila's tagline.
	9:12am John in Bklyn: G'morning Joe and Noisers! That Twilley song reminded me of early MTV.
	♥ 9:13am The Oscar: Real Kids!!
	♥ 9:13am Joe McG: @Cmurtha: Yes, a different spin on "girlcentric goodness" for sure! @tadpoles: Sheila proposed it and I couldn't resist.
	♥ 9:14am Joe McG: @MattF: I wish I had the 45!
	♥ 9:14am Sem: So, THIS is where the girls are. Greets, Joe, McGaskos, the delighted just-stumbled-upon-this-show.
	9:16am medson: Rocking Start. Thanks Joe. Have a good show.
	♥ 9:20am Cmurtha: what
	♥ 9:20am pantz: Sounds like Jackie took the Hepburn Elocution Lessons
	♥ 9:21am Ken From Hyde Park: Very nice. This was just from your own creativity, Joe, or an FCC-mandated equal time regulatory mandate?
	♥ 9:21am Cmurtha: Jackie you all over the damn place on this one
	9:21am Andrea in Jersey City: This is incredible
	9:21am Andrea in Jersey City: Thank you
	♥ 9:21am The Oscar: Little girls LOVE cans of water!
	♥ 9:21am Mick: Oh, Jackie...

	9:21am John in Bklyn: Wha... is this Jackie on the wrong speed? 4 colors. Oh dear.
	9:21am karen eliot: snort!
	9:22am Jeff g.: This is problematic.
	9:22am Creature Boy: oh Jackie
	♥ 9:22am The Oscar: Suh-LOW-mee.
	9:22am queems: this fucking guy
	9:22am sugarwolf: Is this about daughters or girlfriends?

	♥ 9:23am adampsyche: that was some creepy shit
	9:23am davefromtoronto: now where's my martini!!!

	♥ 9:23am Ken From Hyde Park: How sweet it is!
	9:24am Creature Boy: oops u beat me to it , Mick.
	♥ 9:25am Krys O.: Tom Edwards had 45s of What is a Teenage Girl? and What is a Teenage Boy?
	♥ 9:25am The Oscar: My favorite is the answer song to "The Lion Sleeps Tonight," called "Please Help." The entire song is begging the singer from the Tokens to keep his voice down because he'll awaken the lion.
	♥ 9:25am steveo: Good Morning! I'd even give up a month's supply of chewin' tobacky Just to be known as Mrs. Neil Sedaky

	9:31am davefromtoronto: should've been called "oh Karl"
	♥ 9:32am Joe McG: @adam: No, I found another one! @karen: I hope so! It's dangerous to compare one's self to Sheila B.
	♥ 9:35am Mick: Nice nod to Sheila B! i thought you might go with Buddy Holly's Sheila song
	♥ 9:35am adampsyche: love this set!
	9:36am karen eliot: No comparisons. I’m liking the conversation/interaction between the two. Brilliant.
	♥ 9:39am Joe McG: @Mick: There are a lot of Sheila songs, surprisingly! Are you thinking of Tommy Roe?
	9:41am John in Bklyn: Sheila Take a Bow!
	9:41am Roberto: Clearly this song was written about my wife.
	9:42am old ERIC thee hat: Any Elenore in our futures?
	♥ 9:42am Cmurtha: What show is hosted by a Laura? My schedule in turkey means I am missing a lot of night shows, and also I know a few djs by pseudonyms like, Trouble.
	♥ 9:42am Joe McG: @old ERIC: Possible! I have it with me.
	9:42am old ERIC thee hat: Also. Good morrow Joe and friends. Where are my manners?
	♥ 9:42am The Oscar: Saw the album title before the artist on this one and did a double take.
	♥ 9:43am Joe McG: @Cmurtha: One of my all-time faves is Laura Cantrell, hostess for many years of the Radio Thrift Shop. Just a nod.
	9:43am old ERIC thee hat: I guess there’d need to be an Elenore at FMU. smh
	9:45am John in Bklyn: WFMU's Michelle will always be the late great Michelle Boule from Incorrect Music to me.
	♥ 9:46am Joe McG: I should say that some DJs were very hard to find, so I cheated a bit. You'll see.
	♥ 9:47am Cmurtha: @joe Interesting, I thought it would have been easy to find songs with the name mentions, but also specifically named after the woman in question just because of HOW MANY songs follow that naming convention.
	♥ 9:49am Mick: @Joe, yes that's who i was thinking of - yipes!
	♥ 9:52am tadpoles: Nils Lofgren has a song called "Trouble's Back"...sort of fits??
	♥ 9:52am steveo: no way, I ALSO tie my hair with golden daffodils!
	♥ 9:53am Joe McG: @steveo: ha ha ha! @tadpoles: Good one, but I brought another!
	♥ 9:54am Cmurtha: I was ready for this to turn into a murder ballad or the classic "Whoops my lover died, let me sing about that" glad its just a SADBOIS song
	9:55am John in Bklyn: The Cufflinks! Now there's a band name.
	9:55am jt: What about Debbie? Did I miss that one?
	♥ 9:56am MikeG: Hehe ... nice one
	♥ 9:56am Joe McG: @jt: Forgot Debbie! You have a good suggestion?
	9:57am old ERIC thee hat: Also was reminded of SYs Little Trouble Girl...
	♥ 9:57am steveo: nice Trouble song. ... I also heard Michael Shelley play Trouble Is My Middle Name this weekend :)
	9:58am old ERIC thee hat: Deborah? T Rex?
	♥ 9:59am mcgreivey: Outrageous Cherry: i love them, but I haven't listened to them in ages. I need to.
	♥ 10:00am Joe McG: @steveo: That's HER first name! :) @old Eric: Well, I have a Deborah. I guess I'll use that one!
	10:00am John in Bklyn: There's a Beck tune called Debra.?
	10:00am Joe: This is a much better version. Thanks Joe for thinking of me and the serious issue of not enough Kim songs in the world! This is a great show!
	10:00am old ERIC thee hat: Ugh... Debora
	♥ 10:01am Mick: B-52s have a Debbie song I think
	10:01am Kim: Why did I type in Joe?? Its Kimzilla!
	♥ 10:02am Joe McG: @John: I have that with me. Also Dave Edmunds. No "Debbie" songs? @Kim: Ha ha ha! I can't believe you heard this song from wherever you are!
	♥ 10:03am Joe McG: This is a lot of fun for me, btw!
	♥ 10:03am J: And I've never heard a Get Hip record that wasn't garage rock, or some other rock'n'roll noise (not that there's anything wrong with that). This Green Pajamas pops.
	10:04am old ERIC thee hat: Cheating perhaps. But first hit for songs about Debbie was... https://youtu.be/p0mkH1y30-E
	♥ 10:09am Ike: In Philadelphia eating excellent Cambodian food, that's where!
	♥ 10:10am The Oscar: That kazoo!!
	10:11am John in Bklyn: This song perfectly captures my feelings for Diane Lane.
	10:12am jt: THE ONLY Debbie song: Bruce Pavitt look it up : funny, heartfelt autobiographical.
	♥ 10:12am Joe McG: @John: ha ha ha
	♥ 10:13am Krys O.: This is wonderful, Joe!
	10:13am V Priceless: Great stuff !
	10:13am jt: The Dion song "Little Diane" is excellent , I mean, it has a Kazoo? Is that a kazoo? did I spell that right?
	♥ 10:14am The Oscar: My favorite Debbie song is "Little Debbie, Burn in Hell" by Deadbolt, which has the immortal couplet "Cakes and pies / Deception and lies!"
	10:14am djsheilab: OH MY GOD! Just tuning in. You did it Joe! Haha! LOVE it!!!!
	♥ 10:15am Joe McG: Thanks, Krys! Very fun. Weirdly difficult to find a good Becky/Rebecca song.
	♥ 10:16am Joe McG: @Sheila B: HAD TO DO IT! :)
	10:16am V Priceless: Flo and Eddie have a Rebecca tune I think
	10:17am John in Bklyn: jt: That was the first time I ever heard kazoo played with seemingly serious intent.
	10:17am egould310: Debbie & Kim by Redd Kross
	10:17am jt: 1:40... on second thought it might not be radio friendly /proper.. Haven't heart it since 1987...just re-listened.
	♥ 10:17am Joe McG: @VP: Oh no, I don't know it.
	♥ 10:18am Joe McG: @egould: (hitting head) ugh, forgot that one!
	♥ 10:20am The Oscar: @VP I only know that one from the time I tried making a playlist based on the chronological filmography of Alfred Hitchcock. It came out surprisingly listenable!
	10:22am djsheilab: Oh man....this is too much fun!
	♥ 10:23am Joe McG: You were right, Sheila, this is so much fun!!
	♥ 10:23am Scott Williams: I confess, I was hoping for Mel Tillis doing "Who's Julie?"
	10:24am John in Bklyn: @Joe: I bet Stanky and the Coal Miners have a song called Stashu! Na Zdrowie!
	♥ 10:24am The Oscar: Things don't bode well for any woman who finds her name in a Porter Wagoner song.
	♥ 10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all I wanted was a piece o' hay ta chaw ons ...an' y'all woodn't give tuh me...
	10:25am Listener Scott: Just tuning in and after a few numbers thought, huh, I wonder if Joe is doing a response show to Sheila B's show from Friday and sure enough! So cool that Sheila B tuned in too.
	10:25am queems: literally the only francine song that exists and it’s creepy as hell
	♥ 10:26am Joe McG: @John: I only have one album by them - that Stashu gave me for my birthday - but there's no Stashu song on it, alas!
	10:26am queems: it’s like going to disney world and not finding your name on a keychain for your whole life
	♥ 10:27am Joe McG: @queems: That's so sad! I've had three lovely Francines in my life, so it's a name I'm fond of!
	♥ 10:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you say I'm crazy ...when I went to y'alls' GranOlOpree...
	♥ 10:27am tadpoles: Girls singing about boys and now boys singing about girls....what could be better. Really love both shows and appreciate the time and homework our DJs put in for us. Cheers.
	10:27am melinda: Loved the backup vocals on the Porter Wagoner
	10:28am queems: @joe i’d like to meet as many other francines as possible- i’ve only met one or two. i’m glad you’ve known some good ones!!!
	♥ 10:30am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Sliding in at the halfway point… Hi, everyone!
	10:32am Listener Scott: Might be outside the theme but it'd be pretty meta to play Roxanne Shanté and The Real Roxanne; answer songs on an answer show.
	10:34am John in Bklyn: @Scott: Yes! From the days when hip hop beefs were settled on vinyl.
	10:36am John in Bklyn: Four Leaves had very Mamas Papas harmonies.
	♥ 10:41am Krys O.: The Polonairs of Omaha: Come Back, My Stasiu: youtu.be...
	♥ 10:41am Krys O.: FYI--Stasiu is the Polish spelling.
	♥ 10:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sounds like a GeneVincent tune - not relates to Eddie ...& played w/ the NOTORIOUS SpadeCooley... en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 10:42am Joe McG: You did it, Krys! I'll have to play that one later!
	♥ 10:42am briania: I love Emma. The song, I mean.
	10:42am prudy: God, what a great throwback!
	♥ 10:43am Asheville Jon: any songs with Cora in the title?
	♥ 10:44am Krys O.: @Asheville Jon: Probably from the early days of wax cylinders.
	♥ 10:45am Ken From Hyde Park: scans playlist Need a Meghan. Might have to search Welsh sites for a Keilidh.
	♥ 10:45am Hughie Considine: The rhyme scheme in Lalena is kinda funny... Donovan felt stuff deeply.
	♥ 10:47am Joe McG: @Ken: I couldn't find a Keili, a Meghan, or a Mayuko!
	♥ 10:47am Asheville Jon: i can't find my freakin' glasses!
	♥ 10:47am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): My actual name is probably in songs or chants from India, though Buffy Sainte-Marie did get close to name dropping it in "Universal Soldier" with the words "a Jain." (My name is Jaina—hippie parents)
	♥ 10:48am Ken From Hyde Park: ^^Opportunities for songwriters!
	10:48am βrian: Always check your nose first.
	♥ 10:48am Asheville Jon: i am not wearing them, and they are not on top of my head. they are someplace "safe" where i won't sit or step on them. ugh
	10:48am John in Bklyn: @Krys O.: Na Zdrowie to you, too!
	♥ 10:49am The Oscar: Ha, this one's great!
	♥ 10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Donovan ftw. Is it me or is this much like 'World Shut Yer Mouth' by me beloved Julian Cope...
	♥ 10:50am Hughie Considine: The other great single by Icicle Works (imho) is also a name song: "Understanding Jane." (It's actually even better.)
	♥ 10:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Self-described Cope: 'Two-Car Garage Band'...
	♥ 10:51am Hughie Considine: @Revolution -- totally. And this came out around the same time as Cope's most commercial era.
	10:51am Roberto: Try her on, she fits like a glove.
	♥ 10:51am Booz: There's a song called Mayuko by Veins www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sounds even more like ScottWalker than Cope...& that's something...
	10:52am queems: aw my mom’s name is sandra and she used to play this version all the time
	♥ 10:52am Joe McG: Wow, Booz, I'll check it out!
	10:52am John in Bklyn: Icicle Works had a tune From a Whisper to a Scream. The DBs had a tune From a Window to a Screen!
	♥ 10:53am Joe McG: Ooh, I don't know if I like that one that much, Booz! But good hunting!
	10:53am prudy: Wow, I never knew the Hollies sang this tune. So whose is the cover?
	♥ 10:54am Krys O.: My ex wrote some songs about me and one has my name in the title: rsteviemoore.bandcamp.com...
	10:54am queems: this one
	♥ 10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Whisper...' by Icicles has always been a just below the surface earworm...
	10:54am Roberto: If the waitress he was seeing was named Kim, the circle would be complete.
	♥ 10:55am Krys O.: Prudy, Springsteen wrote it and The Hollies covered it.
	10:55am prudy: thanks Queems.
	♥ 10:56am Booz: Yeah, agreed about the Veins song. There's no point in forcing it.
	10:56am prudy: rally hate Starship. Why did then even bother?
	♥ 10:56am Joe McG: This one goes out to John Allen.
	10:56am queems: no prob :)
	♥ 10:56am Hughie Considine: And all of a sudden we're knee-deep in the hoopla...
	♥ 10:56am Joe McG: @prudy: But, prudy, that reggae bridge!
	♥ 10:57am Krys O.: Ah, Starship did Sara.
	♥ 10:57am crateslinger: a candidate for the Monday 11 am slot to challenge Tuesday's?
	10:57am queems: this one reminds me of sitting on a boat as a kid with bad hudson valley classic rock radio playing
	♥ 10:57am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): I still need revenge on John Allen for getting "Miracles" stuck in my head for nearly a month.
	10:57am John in Bklyn: Joe, if you play this you have to play Donnie Iris Ah Leah!
	♥ 10:58am crateslinger: wow - I always thought this was Foreigner...
	♥ 10:58am Hughie Considine: There's some beautiful stuff on Blows Against the Empire, the first real Starship LP. They just accrued cheese as they went along.
	♥ 10:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a couple Starship tunes...some people survived the 70s to lose the plot on MTV...
	♥ 10:58am Joe McG: @John: I have it with me!
	10:58am prudy: ok Joe, the bridge is the only tolerable thing in the song. The song just makes me think of the bros in Spinal Tap for some reason..
	♥ 10:58am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): crateslinger: ha! YES!
	♥ 10:59am Hughie Considine: I'm holding out for "Ariel" by Dean Friedman.
	10:59am queems: also i never knew this guy was saying “jane”
	♥ 11:00am Krys O.: Mickey Thomas was a pioneer of bombastic singing. Think Elvin Bishop's Fooled Around and Fell in Love.
	♥ 11:01am Booz: OK, so next week the Listener Names Show? Granny (Cat Stevens), Dear Prudy (Fab 4), Kings & Queems (Renaissance). . .
	11:02am Bill W: Most psych Berry cover ever?
	♥ 11:02am Joe McG: @Booz: ha ha ha, great idea!
	11:03am P-90: This show is ingenious, entertaining, and occasionally hilarious
	11:04am queems: @booz lolol i love it
	♥ 11:04am The Oscar: Every time I hear "Valleri" I go crazy trying to remember which Fall song cops its riff, and every time I hear the Fall song I go crazy trying to remember the name of "Valleri."
	♥ 11:04am Joe McG: P-90: Sheila B.'s inspiration!
	11:06am Listener Alexandra: I'm not going to ask if "Alexandra Leaving" is in this set. Leonard Cohen and I have a way of harshing vibes.
	♥ 11:06am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Booz: is there a song about fleep?
	11:06am eric in sodak: Which Monkee was doing that insane guitar break?
	11:06am prudy: Krys O: funny I like that Ellvin Bishop song, but it's due the the guitar riffs, not the vocals.
	11:07am Rory: I’ve been waiting for someone to play Rory Rides Me Raw by The Vaselines
	♥ 11:07am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, just tuned in. Does Lalena rhyme with I don't blame yer. Not heard this song for forty plus years.
	♥ 11:07am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): There are SO MANY songs about Granny. I think there was a whole set on GTDS once.
	♥ 11:09am Hughie Considine: It's a beauty, @Rory
	♥ 11:09am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): I did a whole mixtape of songs with gal names in the titles, and there is no lack of songs about Julia.
	♥ 11:09am Booz: P-30, P-60, P-90 Go!; The Oscar for Treadwell (Bird & Diz); Asheville Skyline Rag (Dylan). . .
	♥ 11:10am Hughie Considine: Jennifer Juniper!
	♥ 11:10am Hughie Considine: "I'm just mad about 14..." He wasn't talking about the number.
	♥ 11:10am Ken From Hyde Park: Anyone finding any Bronwyn songs?
	♥ 11:10am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Donovan told every bird he met that he'd do a song for her, so…
	♥ 11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Valeri Gittar - Louis Shelton: en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 11:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Juniper for Jenny Boyd - Pattie's sister. Think she wasn't seduced...
	♥ 11:14am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Hughie Considine: on his live album he makes that clear. EW.
	♥ 11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Jenny & Donny : www.famousfix.com...
	♥ 11:16am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): And of course, Uncle Shelby wrote Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout, which isn't exactly a song, but could be.
	♥ 11:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Donovan would've been barely into his 20s mid1960s...fwiw (or isn't)...
	♥ 11:18am Mike Sin: "Elenore" never gets old in my book. Such great style over substance -- the vocal delivery and arrangement really elevate a pretty run-of-the-mill song.
	♥ 11:18am Hughie Considine: Wow @Granny. Haven't had the displeasure of hearing that. He also sang about "14" on "Superlungs My Supergirl" ("She's only 14 but she knows how to draw ...") The dude was pretty shameless, even in an era where lusting over young teens was common in pop songs.
	♥ 11:19am Joe McG: Hey Mike! I forget my Turtle history a bit, but didn't they write it as a joke to appease the record company asking for another "Happy Together"?
	♥ 11:19am Hughie Considine: @Mike, I think they wrote it as a cliche pop song to make the record company happy, but wow, what a thing they tossed off!
	♥ 11:19am The Oscar: Somewhere Mandy is waiting for her sailor to return.
	♥ 11:19am Hughie Considine: sorry, @joe. gonna let you do your show now
	♥ 11:20am Krys O.: WOW! Scott English wrote Bend Me, Shape Me AND Hi Ho Silver Lining besides Brandy. Amazing....
	♥ 11:20am Joe McG: Thanks for helping me out, Hughie!
	11:20am John in Bklyn: Brandy... wha?? Isn't this a Manilow tune? I thought Brandy was a fine girl.
	♥ 11:20am Mike Sin: @JoeMcG and @Hughie -- Right on.
	♥ 11:20am Booz: Nice way get Mandy and Brandy at a swoop.
	11:21am queems: get you a brandy who can do both
	11:22am eric in sodak: Oh Margie, You kissed me and found me a turkey On my vacation away from workie
	♥ 11:22am Krys O.: I'm with you, Mike Sin. Howard Kaylan sings his tuchas off.
	♥ 11:22am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Hughie Considine: that would be a fun theme: songs that were tossed off as a joke or composed/recorded on the spot and became unexpected hits. "A Boy Named Sue" (!), "Boris the Spider," what else?
	♥ 11:23am Krys O.: The Brandy name was changed to Mandy by Manilow to avoid confusion.
	♥ 11:24am Krys O.: Elenore is the opposite or converse musically of Happy Together. Not sure what the correct musical term is.
	11:24am Matt: this is a great cover
	11:24am P-90: The Jerry Garcia Band used to do a killer live version of Dear Prudence
	11:24am Rory: Black Sally-Hunan Instinct
	♥ 11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Gotta loves Flo & Eddie.
	11:24am roger: another damn fine show, Mr McG
	♥ 11:25am The Oscar: @GST "Roller Show" by Nick Lowe comes to mind...
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: Heya, Roger! Thanks for the Treehorn love on Saturday! If that's you, Roger! :)
	♥ 11:27am tadpoles: #Rory...Human Instinct...great Kiwi band.
	11:27am Rory: Damn fine bass playin!
	11:28am John in Bklyn: All Rod Stewart songs should be covered by Simtec and Wylie and the Stewart master tapes disposed of properly.
	♥ 11:28am Hughie Considine: @Granny, that would require some research. Were there that many?
	♥ 11:29am Hughie Considine: @P-90 They did. I'm pretty sure I've never heard a bad cover of "Dear Prudence." Gabor Szabo does a sublime version that I came across fairly recently.
	♥ 11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fact is - Rod's a good Soul Singer - if he finds the good taste to be...
	♥ 11:29am CHUCK ROAST: Been riding around doing errands all over Baltimore today, but loving this show while I was in the car. The kazoo solo on Little Diane was a riot!
	♥ 11:29am Booz: This Maggie May hath burnt my barn.
	11:30am Andrea in Jersey City: Great show thx!
	11:30am prudy: love Rod Stewart circa Gasoline Alley and the Small Faces.
	11:31am prudy: Amoreena!
	♥ 11:31am Sem: Love this one, Joe.
	11:31am βrian: Beat the cheese out of those drums!
	11:31am Peter in tappan: this is my only Elton song
	11:31am Fernando P: WFMU schedules come and go, but Surface Noise still one of the finest 3 hours of music available here or anywhere. Amazing show today. Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:31am Hughie Considine: Aw, man, the sweetest Elton John song of all time...and the soundtrack to the opening of "Dog Day Afternoon."
	11:32am melinda: I knew an Amoreena in grade school, didn’t know until now it was an Elton song.
	♥ 11:32am Ken From Hyde Park: It has come to my attention that the Smashing Pumpkins did a song about Glynis
	♥ 11:32am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying it, Chuck and Andrea! (Sorry for not playing the Sunrays for you, Andrea!) @Alex: I don't know that Leo Cohen song!
	11:32am eric in sodak: The entire soundtrack to "Dog Day Afternoon"
	11:32am John in Bklyn: How did add all those extra syllables to 'lady'? LAY-deee-uh-yah
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: @John: ha ha ha, I was just thinking the same thing! "lay-uh-dee"
	11:33am Andrea in Jersey City: :) so happy to be listening to the show. What a gift!!
	♥ 11:33am steveo: heard an elton john song this weekend on wxpn on the nj turnpike this weekend also. could be a trend.
	♥ 11:33am Hughie Considine: "...like a puppy child"
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: @Hughie: That's how I'm doing today's show, like a puppy child.
	♥ 11:34am steveo: (where's my editor?)
	11:35am emily: my favorite elton john song thanks for being you, joe!
	♥ 11:36am Joe McG: @emily: Aw, shucks, thanks! :)
	11:36am Dano59: Oh, Joe! "Annie" !! ♥♥♥♥♥
	♥ 11:36am tim from champaign: Hi Joe and everybody! Excellent companion to Sheila's Friday show, Joe!
	11:36am prudy: really sweet version of "Annie"...
	♥ 11:37am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): steveo: i think we're all about to experience a tsunami of Elton songs…
	11:37am Dano59: this is the one on Rough Mix, I think.
	♥ 11:37am Hughie Considine: It suits you, @Joe
	11:38am Andrea in Jersey City: I’m thinking of all the other listeners around the land listening the same wavelengths as me right now.
	♥ 11:38am tim from champaign: A little late on the Rod Stewart conversation but my theory regarding early Rod and the Faces era is that Rod wants to sound like Tina Turner with Same Cooke's swing.
	♥ 11:39am G: @GST: That Rocketman film that I've seen the trailer for a zillion times is finally out. I know two people who saw it yesterday.
	♥ 11:39am tim from champaign: Similarly, I think Mick Jagger wants to be Tina Turner.
	♥ 11:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nat Trio it's own magnificent thang of course.
	♥ 11:41am G: @tim: Like Robert Plant wanted to be Roky haha
	♥ 11:42am tim from champaign: @G - I never thought of that!
	♥ 11:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think Plant & Tyler wanted to be Janis... Roky obviously practiced his AfricanAmerican influences strenuously - but I wonder what his relation to Van was...I think there's some comparison - but I haven't seen it mentioned!
	♥ 11:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Roky & Janis were pals in Texas...
	11:44am βrian: Hah. Charcoal burner. I'd never heard that!
	11:44am emily: a very sweet sinatra song that we sang to our (now deceased) cat . she didn't wear boots but she was a fetching calico
	♥ 11:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& NoddyHolder in the Janis camp...
	♥ 11:45am ChrisB.: Lyrics for Nancy provided by comedian Phil Silvers.
	♥ 11:45am tim from champaign: OK, I got another one but this one's pretty obvious. David Lee Roth REALLY wanted to be Louis Prima.
	11:45am prudy: great song by Prima
	11:45am melinda: @emily that’s sweet. I used to have a fetching calico too.
	♥ 11:45am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...still picking up how important Prima was: BennyGoodman got 'SingSingSing' from him - apparently...
	♥ 11:47am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): @G: i saw "Rocket Man" on Friday, at the Castro in SF. The place was packed with white, middle-aged gay men, some with their mothers. Not a dry eye in the house.
	♥ 11:48am Brian in UK: Joe, does Arthur Lee's 'Andmoreagain' qualify. It might also fit into the misheard lyrics section as Anne Morgan.
	11:48am Linda Lee: i'm not sure that sounds very pleasant, Granny! :-D
	♥ 11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if you have Humor - you always risk people under-crediting yer Skill...
	♥ 11:50am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha
	11:50am Linda Lee: almost noon & no "america"! will we wait 'til this evening?
	11:50am Andrea in Jersey City: I love BillBragg ty!!
	♥ 11:50am pantz: Love this Billy Bragg. Really takes me back.
	♥ 11:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Me too. Don't know this Band version!...
	♥ 11:50am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Linda Lee: just between you and me (hee hee) i was a bit underwhelmed. With all due respect. I thought the film was too cheesy, even for ME.
	11:51am melinda: @Granny did you like it?
	♥ 11:51am Phillippe Bastille: Great show, Joe! Thank you!
	♥ 11:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No Kristy MacColl :( ...
	11:53am Linda Lee: ooh. that's not good.
	♥ 11:53am Joe McG: @RR: Can't! Has to be a male singer this show. @Phillippe: Thanks much!
	♥ 11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: For Caroline Munro: my Forever Brunette :))) ...
	11:53am Dano59: Joe Cocker wanted to be Ray Charles, Macca wanted to be Little Richard, most of the girls like to dance but only some of the boys do ..
	11:54am Linda Lee: not more vice-washing, i hope.
	♥ 11:54am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): melinda: there were parts i thought were totally fun and entertaining, but i won't be shoving folx out of the way to see it again. I think it's doomed for an eternity of singalong double features with "Boho Rhap" every Pride Month.
	♥ 11:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I mean - Kristy on 'Greetings to New Brunette' - as 'Shirley' was earlier...
	11:54am Dano59: if girls on girls were allowed, we'd have Norah Jones' Miriam.
	11:54am emily: I've been mainlining "Colin Blunstone" because of you, Joe. You played a couple songs a couple weeks ago. I'm hooked. Wonder why his songs didn't make it to the "Virgin Suicides" soundtrack.
	♥ 11:55am 12539: Fantastic show, Joe! Thanks!
	♥ 11:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: LittleRichard: ...'all the womens go WOO! ...all the MenFolk go UHH!'... ;p
	♥ 11:55am J: Shirley: I love this song. Well, I've loved the whole show. I need to pull out my Billy Bragg and Outrageous Cherry records, and the Texas Twisted comp with Southwest FOB and and 10 Thirteenth Floor Elevators tracks. So many records; so little time.
	11:55am Linda Lee: i was a new brunette once. more than once! :-D
	♥ 11:56am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Linda Lee: it's totally focused on Elton's rise to fame and descent into addiction and self-destruction, so not as scrubbed as "Boho" but it ignores AIDS completely.
	11:56am Linda Lee: (strongly restraining a pithy girls-on-girls comment.)
	11:56am Dano59: my work here is done
	11:57am Linda Lee: wow..
	♥ 11:57am Kat in Chicago: I forgot how gorgeous that Colin Blunstone track is.
	♥ 11:57am Krys O.: Thanks, Mr. McGasko! Excellent show!
	11:57am Linda Lee: so then, a 2 hour DARE commercial with sequins?
	♥ 11:58am tadpoles: Funny...Amen Corner have a song called "Hello Susie".
	♥ 11:58am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! See you again next week with some new music! :)
	11:58am Linda Lee: that sounds underwhelming indeed.
	♥ 11:58am Mick: Superfun show! Thanks!
	♥ 11:58am Sem: Merci!
	♥ 11:58am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): I think "Rocketman" is simply supposed to be a feel-good fantasy about redemption, with Elton's myth as the story.
	11:58am Linda Lee: much better late than never! thanks Joe!
	11:58am Andrea in Jersey City: Standing ovation Joe! Even my cat is clapping.
	11:59am Linda Lee: zzzzzzz
	♥ 11:59am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): I can't resist Colin Blunstone. Phenomenal theme mastery, Joe! Thanks! Another radio masterpiece.
	11:59am John in Bklyn: Great show, Joe! Have a good one Noisers!
	12:00pm Andrea in Jersey City: Bye John!
	♥ 12:00pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Linda Lee: just caught your 11:57 comment. HA!!!!
	12:00pm Linda Lee: if the darkness is semi-dark, salvation is semi-light! :-D
	♥ 12:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Zombies had damn great Quality Control...
	♥ 12:00pm Krys O.: The Amen Corner covered the Move's Hello Susie.
	12:01pm Linda Lee: it's grey tapioca!
	♥ 12:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx JoeM !

	♥ 9:25am The Oscar: My favorite is the answer song to "The Lion Sleeps Tonight," called "Please Help." The entire song is begging the singer from the Tokens to keep his voice down because he'll awaken the lion.

	♥ 9:35am adampsyche: love this set!
	9:36am karen eliot: No comparisons. I’m liking the conversation/interaction between the two. Brilliant.
	♥ 9:39am Joe McG: @Mick: There are a lot of Sheila songs, surprisingly! Are you thinking of Tommy Roe?
	9:41am John in Bklyn: Sheila Take a Bow!
	9:41am Roberto: Clearly this song was written about my wife.
	9:42am old ERIC thee hat: Any Elenore in our futures?
	♥ 9:42am Cmurtha: What show is hosted by a Laura? My schedule in turkey means I am missing a lot of night shows, and also I know a few djs by pseudonyms like, Trouble.

	9:45am John in Bklyn: WFMU's Michelle will always be the late great Michelle Boule from Incorrect Music to me.
	♥ 9:46am Joe McG: I should say that some DJs were very hard to find, so I cheated a bit. You'll see.
	♥ 9:47am Cmurtha: @joe Interesting, I thought it would have been easy to find songs with the name mentions, but also specifically named after the woman in question just because of HOW MANY songs follow that naming convention.
	♥ 9:49am Mick: @Joe, yes that's who i was thinking of - yipes!
	♥ 9:52am tadpoles: Nils Lofgren has a song called "Trouble's Back"...sort of fits??
	♥ 9:52am steveo: no way, I ALSO tie my hair with golden daffodils!
	♥ 9:53am Joe McG: @steveo: ha ha ha! @tadpoles: Good one, but I brought another!
	♥ 9:54am Cmurtha: I was ready for this to turn into a murder ballad or the classic "Whoops my lover died, let me sing about that" glad its just a SADBOIS song
	9:55am John in Bklyn: The Cufflinks! Now there's a band name.
	9:55am jt: What about Debbie? Did I miss that one?
	♥ 9:56am MikeG: Hehe ... nice one
	♥ 9:56am Joe McG: @jt: Forgot Debbie! You have a good suggestion?

	9:58am old ERIC thee hat: Deborah? T Rex?
	♥ 9:59am mcgreivey: Outrageous Cherry: i love them, but I haven't listened to them in ages. I need to.

	10:00am John in Bklyn: There's a Beck tune called Debra.?
	10:00am Joe: This is a much better version. Thanks Joe for thinking of me and the serious issue of not enough Kim songs in the world! This is a great show!
	10:00am old ERIC thee hat: Ugh... Debora
	♥ 10:01am Mick: B-52s have a Debbie song I think
	10:01am Kim: Why did I type in Joe?? Its Kimzilla!
	♥ 10:02am Joe McG: @John: I have that with me. Also Dave Edmunds. No "Debbie" songs? @Kim: Ha ha ha! I can't believe you heard this song from wherever you are!
	♥ 10:03am Joe McG: This is a lot of fun for me, btw!
	♥ 10:03am J: And I've never heard a Get Hip record that wasn't garage rock, or some other rock'n'roll noise (not that there's anything wrong with that). This Green Pajamas pops.
	10:04am old ERIC thee hat: Cheating perhaps. But first hit for songs about Debbie was... https://youtu.be/p0mkH1y30-E
	♥ 10:09am Ike: In Philadelphia eating excellent Cambodian food, that's where!
	♥ 10:10am The Oscar: That kazoo!!
	10:11am John in Bklyn: This song perfectly captures my feelings for Diane Lane.
	10:12am jt: THE ONLY Debbie song: Bruce Pavitt look it up : funny, heartfelt autobiographical.
	♥ 10:12am Joe McG: @John: ha ha ha
	♥ 10:13am Krys O.: This is wonderful, Joe!
	10:13am V Priceless: Great stuff !
	10:13am jt: The Dion song "Little Diane" is excellent , I mean, it has a Kazoo? Is that a kazoo? did I spell that right?
	♥ 10:14am The Oscar: My favorite Debbie song is "Little Debbie, Burn in Hell" by Deadbolt, which has the immortal couplet "Cakes and pies / Deception and lies!"
	10:14am djsheilab: OH MY GOD! Just tuning in. You did it Joe! Haha! LOVE it!!!!
	♥ 10:15am Joe McG: Thanks, Krys! Very fun. Weirdly difficult to find a good Becky/Rebecca song.
	♥ 10:16am Joe McG: @Sheila B: HAD TO DO IT! :)
	10:16am V Priceless: Flo and Eddie have a Rebecca tune I think
	10:17am John in Bklyn: jt: That was the first time I ever heard kazoo played with seemingly serious intent.
	10:17am egould310: Debbie & Kim by Redd Kross
	10:17am jt: 1:40... on second thought it might not be radio friendly /proper.. Haven't heart it since 1987...just re-listened.
	♥ 10:17am Joe McG: @VP: Oh no, I don't know it.
	♥ 10:18am Joe McG: @egould: (hitting head) ugh, forgot that one!
	♥ 10:20am The Oscar: @VP I only know that one from the time I tried making a playlist based on the chronological filmography of Alfred Hitchcock. It came out surprisingly listenable!
	10:22am djsheilab: Oh man....this is too much fun!
	♥ 10:23am Joe McG: You were right, Sheila, this is so much fun!!
	♥ 10:23am Scott Williams: I confess, I was hoping for Mel Tillis doing "Who's Julie?"
	10:24am John in Bklyn: @Joe: I bet Stanky and the Coal Miners have a song called Stashu! Na Zdrowie!
	♥ 10:24am The Oscar: Things don't bode well for any woman who finds her name in a Porter Wagoner song.
	♥ 10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all I wanted was a piece o' hay ta chaw ons ...an' y'all woodn't give tuh me...
	10:25am Listener Scott: Just tuning in and after a few numbers thought, huh, I wonder if Joe is doing a response show to Sheila B's show from Friday and sure enough! So cool that Sheila B tuned in too.
	10:25am queems: literally the only francine song that exists and it’s creepy as hell
	♥ 10:26am Joe McG: @John: I only have one album by them - that Stashu gave me for my birthday - but there's no Stashu song on it, alas!
	10:26am queems: it’s like going to disney world and not finding your name on a keychain for your whole life
	♥ 10:27am Joe McG: @queems: That's so sad! I've had three lovely Francines in my life, so it's a name I'm fond of!
	♥ 10:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you say I'm crazy ...when I went to y'alls' GranOlOpree...
	♥ 10:27am tadpoles: Girls singing about boys and now boys singing about girls....what could be better. Really love both shows and appreciate the time and homework our DJs put in for us. Cheers.
	10:27am melinda: Loved the backup vocals on the Porter Wagoner
	10:28am queems: @joe i’d like to meet as many other francines as possible- i’ve only met one or two. i’m glad you’ve known some good ones!!!
	♥ 10:30am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Sliding in at the halfway point… Hi, everyone!
	10:32am Listener Scott: Might be outside the theme but it'd be pretty meta to play Roxanne Shanté and The Real Roxanne; answer songs on an answer show.
	10:34am John in Bklyn: @Scott: Yes! From the days when hip hop beefs were settled on vinyl.
	10:36am John in Bklyn: Four Leaves had very Mamas Papas harmonies.
	♥ 10:41am Krys O.: The Polonairs of Omaha: Come Back, My Stasiu: youtu.be...
	♥ 10:41am Krys O.: FYI--Stasiu is the Polish spelling.
	♥ 10:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sounds like a GeneVincent tune - not relates to Eddie ...& played w/ the NOTORIOUS SpadeCooley... en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 10:42am Joe McG: You did it, Krys! I'll have to play that one later!
	♥ 10:42am briania: I love Emma. The song, I mean.
	10:42am prudy: God, what a great throwback!
	♥ 10:43am Asheville Jon: any songs with Cora in the title?
	♥ 10:44am Krys O.: @Asheville Jon: Probably from the early days of wax cylinders.
	♥ 10:45am Ken From Hyde Park: scans playlist Need a Meghan. Might have to search Welsh sites for a Keilidh.
	♥ 10:45am Hughie Considine: The rhyme scheme in Lalena is kinda funny... Donovan felt stuff deeply.
	♥ 10:47am Joe McG: @Ken: I couldn't find a Keili, a Meghan, or a Mayuko!
	♥ 10:47am Asheville Jon: i can't find my freakin' glasses!
	♥ 10:47am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): My actual name is probably in songs or chants from India, though Buffy Sainte-Marie did get close to name dropping it in "Universal Soldier" with the words "a Jain." (My name is Jaina—hippie parents)
	♥ 10:48am Ken From Hyde Park: ^^Opportunities for songwriters!
	10:48am βrian: Always check your nose first.
	♥ 10:48am Asheville Jon: i am not wearing them, and they are not on top of my head. they are someplace "safe" where i won't sit or step on them. ugh
	10:48am John in Bklyn: @Krys O.: Na Zdrowie to you, too!
	♥ 10:49am The Oscar: Ha, this one's great!
	♥ 10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Donovan ftw. Is it me or is this much like 'World Shut Yer Mouth' by me beloved Julian Cope...
	♥ 10:50am Hughie Considine: The other great single by Icicle Works (imho) is also a name song: "Understanding Jane." (It's actually even better.)
	♥ 10:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Self-described Cope: 'Two-Car Garage Band'...
	♥ 10:51am Hughie Considine: @Revolution -- totally. And this came out around the same time as Cope's most commercial era.
	10:51am Roberto: Try her on, she fits like a glove.
	♥ 10:51am Booz: There's a song called Mayuko by Veins www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sounds even more like ScottWalker than Cope...& that's something...
	10:52am queems: aw my mom’s name is sandra and she used to play this version all the time
	♥ 10:52am Joe McG: Wow, Booz, I'll check it out!
	10:52am John in Bklyn: Icicle Works had a tune From a Whisper to a Scream. The DBs had a tune From a Window to a Screen!
	♥ 10:53am Joe McG: Ooh, I don't know if I like that one that much, Booz! But good hunting!
	10:53am prudy: Wow, I never knew the Hollies sang this tune. So whose is the cover?
	♥ 10:54am Krys O.: My ex wrote some songs about me and one has my name in the title: rsteviemoore.bandcamp.com...
	10:54am queems: this one
	♥ 10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Whisper...' by Icicles has always been a just below the surface earworm...
	10:54am Roberto: If the waitress he was seeing was named Kim, the circle would be complete.
	♥ 10:55am Krys O.: Prudy, Springsteen wrote it and The Hollies covered it.
	10:55am prudy: thanks Queems.
	♥ 10:56am Booz: Yeah, agreed about the Veins song. There's no point in forcing it.
	10:56am prudy: rally hate Starship. Why did then even bother?
	♥ 10:56am Joe McG: This one goes out to John Allen.
	10:56am queems: no prob :)
	♥ 10:56am Hughie Considine: And all of a sudden we're knee-deep in the hoopla...
	♥ 10:56am Joe McG: @prudy: But, prudy, that reggae bridge!
	♥ 10:57am Krys O.: Ah, Starship did Sara.
	♥ 10:57am crateslinger: a candidate for the Monday 11 am slot to challenge Tuesday's?
	10:57am queems: this one reminds me of sitting on a boat as a kid with bad hudson valley classic rock radio playing
	♥ 10:57am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): I still need revenge on John Allen for getting "Miracles" stuck in my head for nearly a month.
	10:57am John in Bklyn: Joe, if you play this you have to play Donnie Iris Ah Leah!
	♥ 10:58am crateslinger: wow - I always thought this was Foreigner...
	♥ 10:58am Hughie Considine: There's some beautiful stuff on Blows Against the Empire, the first real Starship LP. They just accrued cheese as they went along.
	♥ 10:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a couple Starship tunes...some people survived the 70s to lose the plot on MTV...
	♥ 10:58am Joe McG: @John: I have it with me!
	10:58am prudy: ok Joe, the bridge is the only tolerable thing in the song. The song just makes me think of the bros in Spinal Tap for some reason..
	♥ 10:58am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): crateslinger: ha! YES!
	♥ 10:59am Hughie Considine: I'm holding out for "Ariel" by Dean Friedman.
	10:59am queems: also i never knew this guy was saying “jane”
	♥ 11:00am Krys O.: Mickey Thomas was a pioneer of bombastic singing. Think Elvin Bishop's Fooled Around and Fell in Love.
	♥ 11:01am Booz: OK, so next week the Listener Names Show? Granny (Cat Stevens), Dear Prudy (Fab 4), Kings & Queems (Renaissance). . .
	11:02am Bill W: Most psych Berry cover ever?
	♥ 11:02am Joe McG: @Booz: ha ha ha, great idea!
	11:03am P-90: This show is ingenious, entertaining, and occasionally hilarious
	11:04am queems: @booz lolol i love it
	♥ 11:04am The Oscar: Every time I hear "Valleri" I go crazy trying to remember which Fall song cops its riff, and every time I hear the Fall song I go crazy trying to remember the name of "Valleri."
	♥ 11:04am Joe McG: P-90: Sheila B.'s inspiration!
	11:06am Listener Alexandra: I'm not going to ask if "Alexandra Leaving" is in this set. Leonard Cohen and I have a way of harshing vibes.
	♥ 11:06am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Booz: is there a song about fleep?
	11:06am eric in sodak: Which Monkee was doing that insane guitar break?
	11:06am prudy: Krys O: funny I like that Ellvin Bishop song, but it's due the the guitar riffs, not the vocals.
	11:07am Rory: I’ve been waiting for someone to play Rory Rides Me Raw by The Vaselines
	♥ 11:07am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, just tuned in. Does Lalena rhyme with I don't blame yer. Not heard this song for forty plus years.
	♥ 11:07am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): There are SO MANY songs about Granny. I think there was a whole set on GTDS once.
	♥ 11:09am Hughie Considine: It's a beauty, @Rory
	♥ 11:09am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): I did a whole mixtape of songs with gal names in the titles, and there is no lack of songs about Julia.
	♥ 11:09am Booz: P-30, P-60, P-90 Go!; The Oscar for Treadwell (Bird & Diz); Asheville Skyline Rag (Dylan). . .
	♥ 11:10am Hughie Considine: Jennifer Juniper!
	♥ 11:10am Hughie Considine: "I'm just mad about 14..." He wasn't talking about the number.
	♥ 11:10am Ken From Hyde Park: Anyone finding any Bronwyn songs?
	♥ 11:10am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Donovan told every bird he met that he'd do a song for her, so…
	♥ 11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Valeri Gittar - Louis Shelton: en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 11:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Juniper for Jenny Boyd - Pattie's sister. Think she wasn't seduced...
	♥ 11:14am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Hughie Considine: on his live album he makes that clear. EW.
	♥ 11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Jenny & Donny : www.famousfix.com...
	♥ 11:16am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): And of course, Uncle Shelby wrote Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout, which isn't exactly a song, but could be.
	♥ 11:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Donovan would've been barely into his 20s mid1960s...fwiw (or isn't)...
	♥ 11:18am Mike Sin: "Elenore" never gets old in my book. Such great style over substance -- the vocal delivery and arrangement really elevate a pretty run-of-the-mill song.
	♥ 11:18am Hughie Considine: Wow @Granny. Haven't had the displeasure of hearing that. He also sang about "14" on "Superlungs My Supergirl" ("She's only 14 but she knows how to draw ...") The dude was pretty shameless, even in an era where lusting over young teens was common in pop songs.
	♥ 11:19am Joe McG: Hey Mike! I forget my Turtle history a bit, but didn't they write it as a joke to appease the record company asking for another "Happy Together"?
	♥ 11:19am Hughie Considine: @Mike, I think they wrote it as a cliche pop song to make the record company happy, but wow, what a thing they tossed off!
	♥ 11:19am The Oscar: Somewhere Mandy is waiting for her sailor to return.
	♥ 11:19am Hughie Considine: sorry, @joe. gonna let you do your show now
	♥ 11:20am Krys O.: WOW! Scott English wrote Bend Me, Shape Me AND Hi Ho Silver Lining besides Brandy. Amazing....
	♥ 11:20am Joe McG: Thanks for helping me out, Hughie!
	11:20am John in Bklyn: Brandy... wha?? Isn't this a Manilow tune? I thought Brandy was a fine girl.
	♥ 11:20am Mike Sin: @JoeMcG and @Hughie -- Right on.
	♥ 11:20am Booz: Nice way get Mandy and Brandy at a swoop.
	11:21am queems: get you a brandy who can do both
	11:22am eric in sodak: Oh Margie, You kissed me and found me a turkey On my vacation away from workie
	♥ 11:22am Krys O.: I'm with you, Mike Sin. Howard Kaylan sings his tuchas off.
	♥ 11:22am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Hughie Considine: that would be a fun theme: songs that were tossed off as a joke or composed/recorded on the spot and became unexpected hits. "A Boy Named Sue" (!), "Boris the Spider," what else?
	♥ 11:23am Krys O.: The Brandy name was changed to Mandy by Manilow to avoid confusion.
	♥ 11:24am Krys O.: Elenore is the opposite or converse musically of Happy Together. Not sure what the correct musical term is.
	11:24am Matt: this is a great cover
	11:24am P-90: The Jerry Garcia Band used to do a killer live version of Dear Prudence
	11:24am Rory: Black Sally-Hunan Instinct
	♥ 11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Gotta loves Flo & Eddie.
	11:24am roger: another damn fine show, Mr McG
	♥ 11:25am The Oscar: @GST "Roller Show" by Nick Lowe comes to mind...
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: Heya, Roger! Thanks for the Treehorn love on Saturday! If that's you, Roger! :)
	♥ 11:27am tadpoles: #Rory...Human Instinct...great Kiwi band.
	11:27am Rory: Damn fine bass playin!
	11:28am John in Bklyn: All Rod Stewart songs should be covered by Simtec and Wylie and the Stewart master tapes disposed of properly.
	♥ 11:28am Hughie Considine: @Granny, that would require some research. Were there that many?
	♥ 11:29am Hughie Considine: @P-90 They did. I'm pretty sure I've never heard a bad cover of "Dear Prudence." Gabor Szabo does a sublime version that I came across fairly recently.
	♥ 11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fact is - Rod's a good Soul Singer - if he finds the good taste to be...
	♥ 11:29am CHUCK ROAST: Been riding around doing errands all over Baltimore today, but loving this show while I was in the car. The kazoo solo on Little Diane was a riot!
	♥ 11:29am Booz: This Maggie May hath burnt my barn.
	11:30am Andrea in Jersey City: Great show thx!
	11:30am prudy: love Rod Stewart circa Gasoline Alley and the Small Faces.
	11:31am prudy: Amoreena!
	♥ 11:31am Sem: Love this one, Joe.
	11:31am βrian: Beat the cheese out of those drums!
	11:31am Peter in tappan: this is my only Elton song
	11:31am Fernando P: WFMU schedules come and go, but Surface Noise still one of the finest 3 hours of music available here or anywhere. Amazing show today. Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:31am Hughie Considine: Aw, man, the sweetest Elton John song of all time...and the soundtrack to the opening of "Dog Day Afternoon."
	11:32am melinda: I knew an Amoreena in grade school, didn’t know until now it was an Elton song.
	♥ 11:32am Ken From Hyde Park: It has come to my attention that the Smashing Pumpkins did a song about Glynis
	♥ 11:32am Joe McG: Glad you're enjoying it, Chuck and Andrea! (Sorry for not playing the Sunrays for you, Andrea!) @Alex: I don't know that Leo Cohen song!
	11:32am eric in sodak: The entire soundtrack to "Dog Day Afternoon"
	11:32am John in Bklyn: How did add all those extra syllables to 'lady'? LAY-deee-uh-yah
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: @John: ha ha ha, I was just thinking the same thing! "lay-uh-dee"
	11:33am Andrea in Jersey City: :) so happy to be listening to the show. What a gift!!
	♥ 11:33am steveo: heard an elton john song this weekend on wxpn on the nj turnpike this weekend also. could be a trend.
	♥ 11:33am Hughie Considine: "...like a puppy child"
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: @Hughie: That's how I'm doing today's show, like a puppy child.
	♥ 11:34am steveo: (where's my editor?)
	11:35am emily: my favorite elton john song thanks for being you, joe!
	♥ 11:36am Joe McG: @emily: Aw, shucks, thanks! :)
	11:36am Dano59: Oh, Joe! "Annie" !! ♥♥♥♥♥
	♥ 11:36am tim from champaign: Hi Joe and everybody! Excellent companion to Sheila's Friday show, Joe!
	11:36am prudy: really sweet version of "Annie"...
	♥ 11:37am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): steveo: i think we're all about to experience a tsunami of Elton songs…
	11:37am Dano59: this is the one on Rough Mix, I think.
	♥ 11:37am Hughie Considine: It suits you, @Joe
	11:38am Andrea in Jersey City: I’m thinking of all the other listeners around the land listening the same wavelengths as me right now.
	♥ 11:38am tim from champaign: A little late on the Rod Stewart conversation but my theory regarding early Rod and the Faces era is that Rod wants to sound like Tina Turner with Same Cooke's swing.
	♥ 11:39am G: @GST: That Rocketman film that I've seen the trailer for a zillion times is finally out. I know two people who saw it yesterday.
	♥ 11:39am tim from champaign: Similarly, I think Mick Jagger wants to be Tina Turner.
	♥ 11:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nat Trio it's own magnificent thang of course.
	♥ 11:41am G: @tim: Like Robert Plant wanted to be Roky haha
	♥ 11:42am tim from champaign: @G - I never thought of that!
	♥ 11:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think Plant & Tyler wanted to be Janis... Roky obviously practiced his AfricanAmerican influences strenuously - but I wonder what his relation to Van was...I think there's some comparison - but I haven't seen it mentioned!
	♥ 11:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Roky & Janis were pals in Texas...
	11:44am βrian: Hah. Charcoal burner. I'd never heard that!
	11:44am emily: a very sweet sinatra song that we sang to our (now deceased) cat . she didn't wear boots but she was a fetching calico
	♥ 11:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& NoddyHolder in the Janis camp...
	♥ 11:45am ChrisB.: Lyrics for Nancy provided by comedian Phil Silvers.
	♥ 11:45am tim from champaign: OK, I got another one but this one's pretty obvious. David Lee Roth REALLY wanted to be Louis Prima.
	11:45am prudy: great song by Prima
	11:45am melinda: @emily that’s sweet. I used to have a fetching calico too.
	♥ 11:45am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...still picking up how important Prima was: BennyGoodman got 'SingSingSing' from him - apparently...
	♥ 11:47am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): @G: i saw "Rocket Man" on Friday, at the Castro in SF. The place was packed with white, middle-aged gay men, some with their mothers. Not a dry eye in the house.
	♥ 11:48am Brian in UK: Joe, does Arthur Lee's 'Andmoreagain' qualify. It might also fit into the misheard lyrics section as Anne Morgan.
	11:48am Linda Lee: i'm not sure that sounds very pleasant, Granny! :-D
	♥ 11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if you have Humor - you always risk people under-crediting yer Skill...
	♥ 11:50am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha
	11:50am Linda Lee: almost noon & no "america"! will we wait 'til this evening?
	11:50am Andrea in Jersey City: I love BillBragg ty!!
	♥ 11:50am pantz: Love this Billy Bragg. Really takes me back.
	♥ 11:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Me too. Don't know this Band version!...
	♥ 11:50am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Linda Lee: just between you and me (hee hee) i was a bit underwhelmed. With all due respect. I thought the film was too cheesy, even for ME.
	11:51am melinda: @Granny did you like it?
	♥ 11:51am Phillippe Bastille: Great show, Joe! Thank you!
	♥ 11:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No Kristy MacColl :( ...
	11:53am Linda Lee: ooh. that's not good.
	♥ 11:53am Joe McG: @RR: Can't! Has to be a male singer this show. @Phillippe: Thanks much!
	♥ 11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: For Caroline Munro: my Forever Brunette :))) ...
	11:53am Dano59: Joe Cocker wanted to be Ray Charles, Macca wanted to be Little Richard, most of the girls like to dance but only some of the boys do ..
	11:54am Linda Lee: not more vice-washing, i hope.
	♥ 11:54am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): melinda: there were parts i thought were totally fun and entertaining, but i won't be shoving folx out of the way to see it again. I think it's doomed for an eternity of singalong double features with "Boho Rhap" every Pride Month.
	♥ 11:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I mean - Kristy on 'Greetings to New Brunette' - as 'Shirley' was earlier...
	11:54am Dano59: if girls on girls were allowed, we'd have Norah Jones' Miriam.
	11:54am emily: I've been mainlining "Colin Blunstone" because of you, Joe. You played a couple songs a couple weeks ago. I'm hooked. Wonder why his songs didn't make it to the "Virgin Suicides" soundtrack.
	♥ 11:55am 12539: Fantastic show, Joe! Thanks!
	♥ 11:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: LittleRichard: ...'all the womens go WOO! ...all the MenFolk go UHH!'... ;p
	♥ 11:55am J: Shirley: I love this song. Well, I've loved the whole show. I need to pull out my Billy Bragg and Outrageous Cherry records, and the Texas Twisted comp with Southwest FOB and and 10 Thirteenth Floor Elevators tracks. So many records; so little time.
	11:55am Linda Lee: i was a new brunette once. more than once! :-D
	♥ 11:56am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): Linda Lee: it's totally focused on Elton's rise to fame and descent into addiction and self-destruction, so not as scrubbed as "Boho" but it ignores AIDS completely.
	11:56am Linda Lee: (strongly restraining a pithy girls-on-girls comment.)
	11:56am Dano59: my work here is done
	11:57am Linda Lee: wow..
	♥ 11:57am Kat in Chicago: I forgot how gorgeous that Colin Blunstone track is.
	♥ 11:57am Krys O.: Thanks, Mr. McGasko! Excellent show!
	11:57am Linda Lee: so then, a 2 hour DARE commercial with sequins?
	♥ 11:58am tadpoles: Funny...Amen Corner have a song called "Hello Susie".
	♥ 11:58am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! See you again next week with some new music! :)
	11:58am Linda Lee: that sounds underwhelming indeed.
	♥ 11:58am Mick: Superfun show! Thanks!
	♥ 11:58am Sem: Merci!
	♥ 11:58am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): I think "Rocketman" is simply supposed to be a feel-good fantasy about redemption, with Elton's myth as the story.
	11:58am Linda Lee: much better late than never! thanks Joe!
