"Killer Queen" is an invitation I can decline.

But Bob's making me tear up by playing it ultra-safe so far.

BOS2 Leo Sayer -- yeah I know I'm in the minority on this one but I find it delightful. Always have.

I think Simmons stole *his* look, actually.

The Richard Simmons pic followed by that sig quote is some major dissonance.

TANC: Listening to last weekend's Idiot's Delight from WFUV (which contains a great interview with John Wesley Harding, btw). Following that segment, Vin played a new tune by The Boy Least Likely To that contains a violin riff that duplicates the melody of an old music-hall-style hit from the 70s. He couldn't place this old song for several days and it drove him nuts until he realized it was Leo Sayer's Long Tall Glasses. So of course he played them back to back, and then played Sayer's Just a Boy.

The universe kinda scares me some times, how often things like this happen.
