" a new old year", sez Dave - as if we haven't visited '96 before? But we did.

Does this mean we're delaying a visit to '97 by another year?

It certainly seems that way.   :x   Meantime, I can't believe my favorite Sheryl Crow song is 10 years old.

BOS to Gin Blossoms, "Til I Hear It From You."  Perfect pop song.

Yeah, Brett Sommers rules. I used to love how she & CNR would get drunk out of those styrofoam cups up there on their "perch". Awesome.

So, Geoff- is your avatar a pic of the weird Times Square ball from the NYE celebration? I saw a closeup of it on the news and it reminded me of something Blofeld would threaten the world with.

So far in this set we've had:

My favorite Sheryl Crow song
My favorite Gin Blossoms song (yes, even better than "Hey Jealousy")
My favorite Radiohead song (VHM to "High & Dry")

Good lookin' out, Dave!

What the hell was that nonsense with the faux-Minnesotan accents?  That was hideous.  It wasn't Coneheads, was it?

HM to Jars of Clay.  The "40 days" line may have lain the Biblical imagery on a bit thick, but this is a very well conceived and well performed song.
