Ooh, smooth soul.  Big BOS vote to "Can I Change My Mind."  Hello in my head to a guy named Gil I think of every time I hear this song.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Quote from: "RGMike"
"Someday a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the streets..."

(I'm sure you don't recognize that movie quote either  :wink:  )

VHM Jack Klugman, BOS # whatever to "The Boxer" for the second time in 2 days.


That was from "Goodbye Columbus", right?  And he was talking to Richard Benjamin's character, whose name was Neil Klugman.

ETA: I meant the quote in the set, not the one in Mike's post.
"Music is the Earth, People are the Flowers, and I am the Hose."

--Carlos Santana, 2010

Joni at her most twee.  Not one of my faves, I confess.


I could dignify that with a dissertation ("twee"???) but I'm too busy.


Sorry, just me at my more cynical.

Music is good. Thanks for the positive thoughts.

Now Joni's got me wishing I were still in Chelsea.


No you don't.  It rained like a mother the last two nights, and may well again today.

Is that Taxi Driver?  Had you not ID'd it as a film quote, I'd have thought it was a line from Son of Sam's missive.  See, the time I don't make for movies, I DO make for serial killers.  Or something like that.


Yup, TD.  TANC: looking forward to the ESPN miniseries about the summer of '77 (The Bronx is Burning), John Turturro's hilariously fake ears (he plays Billy Martin) notwithstanding.

Peoples let me tell y'all -- BOS Tyrone D as set-closer.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Hey, where to for listening this afternoon?  I have a rare Friday off (tradeoff for working July 4) so I'll have i-radio on while I do some housework.

It think it's Joni at her most "poetic" -- what Christgau once called "writing like an English lit major" (he said it about Paul Simon, but it applies here too).
