Valentine's Monday 2/14/05 -- Love songs, nothing but...

The Fogheads have spoken.  Have I told you lately how I feel about Fogheads?

Dave's already confirmed Marc Coen and Peter Gabriel will appear. Hope Irish Greg talks him into "God Only Knows", at least.

I wanted to call in & request that under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should he play "Wonderful Tonight", but I have a feeling it's a foregone conclusion & thus just a waste of my time.

EEEEEeeeewwwww. I consider myself a Peter Gabriel fan, and even I am cringing at the thought of what can only be In Your Eyes.

C'mon, Irish Greg....

I am SO sick of Clapton. 'Clapton' this and 'Clapton' that. The Foghead who won Request-O-Rama is all "Uh, anything by CLAPTON!" like he doesn't get to hear Clapton Every. Fucking . Day. of. His. Life.

Sorry- I'm not feeling well today.

[RGMike]

the thought of what can only be In Your Eyes.

you are correct, sir!

[RGMike]

Thank GOD for Etta James. Immediate BOS, it may not get any better than this.

if for some miraculous reason Dave plays the 11 minute live version of of New World, that would be cool.  It's a much more African song & not nearly as schmaltzy, great percussion, too.

Surprisingly not sucking after the first two.  "Look What You've Done For Me" is my favorite Al Green song, and I like Al Green.  The horn chords have an edge to 'em, doncha think?

indeed this has gotten off to a good start with a one-two punch.
But then I don't consider the Etta James "schmaltz".

Absolutely. But I think that's Willie Mitchell's doing as much as the Reverend's. Ditto for the strings, which I also dig muchly.

[mshray]

you know a lot of people back in the neighborhood just call my dad 'The Reverend' and sometimes when the see me they say, "Oh, you're the Reverend's son, aren't you?"

And occasionally I flash on Al Green when they say that.

[RGMike]

God Only Knows Dave listens to Irish Greg...

[Gazoo]

Universal BOS: "God Only Knows."

I'm taking all your votes and casting them this way because You Know It's Right.

"God Only Knows" is a great song, but we just watched Love Actually on cable this weekend & it's use over the denouement & credits was just a BIT too much.

Well, we were batting .750 for a few blissful minutes, then along came Peter. Now it's .600--if we can maintain that average for the rest of the set I will be relieved.
