Listener comments!
	♥ 7:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Song to Watch Girls Get Stabbed By?? :) (I love it.)
	♥ 7:03pm ultradamno: This does seem like music you'd want to wave a stiletto and tie around to.
	♥ 7:04pm loveless: Love this opening song. I need a drink with an umbrella in it. Where’s that pool boy when you need him? Greetings all.
	♥ 7:07pm dale: wow - i was singing music to watch girls during the last tune.
	♥ 7:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A Definitive 60s track if ever.
	7:10pm Buddha of Suburbia: Hello gang!
	♥ 7:17pm Rich in Washington: Oh yeah!
	♥ 7:18pm ultradamno: Ivers and Laurel Near singing.
	♥ 7:21pm ultradamno: I literally JUST posted that as my favorite track off Rumble: twitter.com...
	♥ 7:21pm Rich in Washington: This set reminds me of my old neighborhood video rental store and its 'Midnight Movie' section. RIP Video Connections.
	♥ 7:22pm ultradamno: The Harder They Come I always remember as a mainstay on Night Flight.
	♥ 7:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Still never seen!
	♥ 7:28pm ultradamno: Wiki says sung by Near, composed by Ivers, written by Lynch en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 7:29pm dale: nice lullaby from a horror film here.
	7:32pm Devon E. Levins: Wiki vs Discogs!! www.discogs.com...
	7:32pm Devon E. Levins: I've always been under the belief it is Ivers. I think it says it in the end credits.
	7:32pm morphe': "NO PLACE LIKE HOME" P. Henzel lost and found.... thanks for spinning...
	♥ 7:33pm dale: this ISN'T from a war picture with telly savalas and george peppard?
	7:34pm Devon E. Levins: Imdb sez: Though "Lady in the Radiator" Laurel Near was an accomplished singer who had performed folk music with her sisters Holly and Timi, when she is seen singing "In Heaven (Everything Is Fine)" she is actually lip-syncing a vocal track of musician Peter Ivers, who composed the song at David Lynch's request.
	♥ 7:34pm ultradamno: Yeah, I had always thought it was Ivers singing myself and then I started seeing conflicting things. If it is I imagine they sped up his voice or something.
	7:37pm JakeGould: “Just cut them up like regular chickens.”
	7:38pm morphe': My name is " O'Martin, Ivan O'Martin!!!!"
	♥ 7:38pm Rich in Washington: The recentish reissue of the Eraserhead soundtrack included a bonus 7" that had an unheard, unissued song by Ivers, a spooky organ instrumental.
	♥ 7:38pm ultradamno: Wiki's footnotes have more about The Pixies' cover than about the track...so I don't know where they came by it.
	♥ 7:39pm Rich in Washington: Ivers had a pretty high register voice himself, but he does sound like he's sped up somewhat there. His solo records are a hoot, by the way.
	♥ 7:43pm ultradamno: @Rich Sacred Bones put that out, as least two different pressings now. There's a book about Ivers called In Heaven Everything Is Fine and one about New Wave Theater producer/creator David Jove called Freedom Spy that make for interesting contrasting viewpoints.
	♥ 7:45pm Rich in Washington: It's a wonderful package. I've got it. Keep meaning to read the Ivers book but haven't yet. He was a fascinating figure. Seeing those Best of New Wave Theater segments on Night Flight was life changing for me.
	♥ 7:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wasn't there some kind of Doc about Ivers & his ambiguous demise ??
	♥ 7:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: NewWaveTheater of course. Had to cling to whatever we could get...stay up for up...ruin our lives & so on...He did wish us a pleasant sleepwalk...
	♥ 7:48pm ultradamno: A lot of Ivers' Hollywood friends think punks (including some serious speculation regarding Lee Ving) and a lot people think it was Jove (who evidently had a violent temper) and others a random home invader. I haven't seen a doc about him though there is a pretty good one about Jack Nance called You Don't Know Jack.
	♥ 7:48pm Rich in Washington: Not sure about a documentary, but it seems warranted.
	♥ 7:49pm Rich in Washington: I really need to see Liquid Sky again. It's been decades.
	♥ 7:49pm Rich in Washington: Recently watched Blood Simple again. The music's haunting.
	♥ 7:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: www.amazon.com...
	♥ 7:53pm Rich in Washington: This show is fantastic, Devin!
	♥ 7:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah THX !
	♥ 7:54pm ultradamno: Different cover on the book now, huh. Loved New Wave Theater. I remember the first time I saw Angry Samoans on there doing Ballad of Jerry Curlan and wondering how this could be happening with no censoring.
	7:54pm JakeGould: This sounds a bit like “Dip in the Pool.”
	♥ 7:55pm CVB from SYR: You have a glistener hooked starting now!
	♥ 7:55pm ultradamno: Barton Fink, still my favorite Coens, though Serious Man is close.
	7:56pm Devon E. Levins: Thx All! Astor Piazzolla soundtrack show next Tuesday with special guests!
	♥ 7:57pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for a fantastic show, Devin! I'm probably going to rewatch most of these films now thanks to you!
	7:59pm morphe': Thanks for the show!!!!
