Nancy Tucker "Everything Reminds Me of My Therapist" (Lol).

OK, I've never heard that song, or even heard *of* it -- is it new? if it's older, did any station in SF ever play it?  Just curious.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjnrgmVCieU&feature=related

A caller was trying to figure out what a song about being reminded of their therapist was & rattled off a few lyrics.  Then another caller called in and said it was Nancy Tucker.  It's from a Dr. Demento CD.  KFOG somehow procured a copy of the CD & played the entire 3:16 (I thought they were going to just play a clip.)

ah, OK. That makes more sense.  Altho' it made me wonder if KFOG might dredge up that "David Duchovny, Why Won't You Love me" song. ;)

Bree Sharp!!!  I love that song.  Hits 106 had it in regular rotation back in the day.

Is there a bit of tweaking going on? '60s cuts have been few & far between these last 6 weeks, but according to FB, not only did AL play the Beach Boys "Wouldn't it Be Nice?" as her 33-1/3 vinyl cut today, she also played the Beatles' "Two of Us" -- making 2 Fab Four songs in one day, counting "Hey Jude" on 10@10.

Meanwhile, I just heard Fleet Foxes' "Helplessness Blues" which is very S&G to my ears. Me likey.

once upon a time, radio stations had continuity people to monitor commercials so that competing businesses' spots didn't air adjacent to each other. This morning I heard Geico back-2-back with State Farm. Ooops.

today's 9 'oclock pop quiz was a 'My Three Songs.'  I turned it on just as Roxy Music's Dance Away was ending and the third song, Don Henley's All She Wants To Do Is Dance started.  Talk about bad timing.

yes, the person did guess correctly.  But that didn't ease my pain of hearing that DH song.. ;)

WTF? I thought "Killer Queen" had been banished to the far end of the universe, along with "Rocket Man" and "Sweet Home Alabummer". Yet there it was around 6:15 this morning. Some "adjustments" are clearly taking place.

Nice that Rosalie is still doing her Acoustic thing on Sundays and is still allowed to play older stuff. Just heard L&M's "To Be Free".

I've been corresponding with someone who was interested in joining, but for the moment is holding off, trying not to get sucked into the time sink our club can be!  He sent along this link, and I feel I've read this article before.  I'm sure someone smarter than me will find it right away:

maybe he's looking for the "regular" sfgate article?  That one listed is the version created to maximize SEO, and what you typically find via a google search.

Sorry, I wasn't getting good results on a search.  Sorry to waste space.  Maybe someday we'll get another member.
