― Charles McCain (Charles McCain), Saturday, 26 April 2003 16:34 (twenty-two years ago)

ILM - "I Love Music" (actually I'm listening to that right now -- a knockoff fly-by-night "cover" version on a 1976 T.E.J. Records release called Hustle 76 which on certain days is my FAVORITE ALBUM EVER) (the "Evil Woman" cover is hysterical)

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Saturday, 26 April 2003 16:42 (twenty-two years ago)

you all can eat my fuck

i dreamt a popular music band talked about ILM in one of their new songs last night

― jess (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 26 April 2003 16:43 (twenty-two years ago)

a "popular music band"? who are you, mr. burns?

obv i set myself up for that

― jess (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 26 April 2003 16:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh damn Tad, so close -- I figured myself as a "Mutherfuker" type.

Matos = every bootleg ever (well, at least the good ones that involve house-esque pop)

― Nate Patrin (Nate Patrin), Saturday, 26 April 2003 16:53 (twenty-two years ago)

WHOA, I am totally honored that a Starship song reminds RJG of me! and Jerry, too!

― Mandee, Thursday, 1 May 2003 18:32 (twenty-two years ago)

I was listening to Billy Ward And The Dominoes' 'Sixty Minute Man' the other day. "Sixty minute man / They call me lovin' Dan / I rock 'em, roll 'em all night long / I'm a sixty minute man."

Didn't remind me of anyone, of course.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 2 May 2003 16:44 (twenty-two years ago)

I was listening to Loveage yesterday on the highway and singing along with "Book of the Month" - doing the Mike Patton part - and thought "wow, it would be cool if Luna was here to sing the Jennifer Charles part".

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 2 May 2003 16:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Martin, you gotta hear Rufus Thomas's 8 minute version of "Sixty Minute Man."

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 2 May 2003 17:02 (twenty-two years ago)

I would, too, nick, but are we doing the moaning part in the middle, too?

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 2 May 2003 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

*blushes*

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 2 May 2003 17:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Ok, that's a yes.

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 2 May 2003 18:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh my god like there was any question!

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 2 May 2003 18:44 (twenty-two years ago)

that's the only song on that record worth a shit, too. From now on whenever I hear Mike Patton's voice I'm going to think of nickalicious. God dammit.

― Millar (Millar), Friday, 2 May 2003 20:37 (twenty-two years ago)

what about stroker ace?

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 2 May 2003 20:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Horace, I do have that version. And good ones by the Trammps and Jerry Lee Lewis too - but I still like the Dominoes' original best, even though it's not their finest moment. Everyone should hear their 'The Bells', the most overemotional record ever made.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 2 May 2003 20:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Ally reminds me of "O Meri Jaan Main Ne Kaha" by Asha Bhosle, R.D. Burman, and some coke-out Muppets.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 2 May 2003 23:43 (twenty-two years ago)

"Wishing Well" by TTD and Johnny Gill's "Rub You The Right Way" remind me of Dan Perry. I've said it before, but I think Dan Perry IS Terence Trent D'Arby.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Friday, 2 May 2003 23:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I think Dan Perry IS Terence Trent D'Arby

If only Terence had had songs about fucking people in the ass, he would have stayed on top. That's the crucial difference, my friend.

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 2 May 2003 23:59 (twenty-two years ago)

assfucking images float through my head...

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Saturday, 3 May 2003 00:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Are those anything like sugarplums?

― luna (luna.c), Saturday, 3 May 2003 00:06 (twenty-two years ago)

let's hope not

― Matt (Matt), Saturday, 3 May 2003 00:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Jess - "I Am Evil Homer" (gabber remix)

nick, I have mad respect for you, but if you have evidence that this actually exists and point out a link to where I can hear it then I will actually move to wherever you live and become your super deadly ninja bodyguard and throw bicycles at all who threaten you. Also I will give them the Shining Wizard.

― Nate Patrin (Nate Patrin), Saturday, 3 May 2003 01:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't care if they're big Dr. Death Steve Williams-looking motherfuckers either.

― Nate Patrin (Nate Patrin), Saturday, 3 May 2003 01:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Ally reminds me of "O Meri Jaan Main Ne Kaha" by Asha Bhosle, R.D. Burman, and some coke-out Muppets.

THAT'S EVEN BETTER THAN "THESE BOOTS..."!!!! Oh, I am so chuffed.

Ok, strange confession: LL Cool J's "Going Back To Cali" made me think of Ned Raggett today.

― Ally (mlescaut), Saturday, 3 May 2003 01:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Really, I don't necessarily have rational reasons for any of these, though some I might:

Tep: Third Eye Blind 1000 Julys
That Girl: David Bowie Rebel, Rebel
Nickalicious: The Stems At First Sight
Millar: Captain Sensible Wot
Chris V.: Marvin Gaye Come Get to This
Ally: Nelly Pimp Juice
buttch: Bob Marley Three Little Birds

― luna (luna.c), Tuesday, 6 May 2003 22:48 (twenty-two years ago)

LL Cool J's "Going Back To Cali" made me think of Ned Raggett today.

Hey, thanks -- since the soundtrack to Less Than Zero was the first CD I ever bought, this is perfectly appropriate! :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 00:11 (twenty-two years ago)

that is such a great soundtrack

― James Blount (James Blount), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 01:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Mm, yes. Rubin had something right there, he did (though it got a bit mush towards the end until the Bangles saved the day).

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 01:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Miss Dynamite - "Dynami-tee" ——> Tom Ewing.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 03:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Ned, music god, how could LTZ be the first CD you ever bought? Please say you got some as gifts before then.

― That Girl (thatgirl), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 03:23 (twenty-two years ago)

I think I sold my LTZ:( But what I really want now is Vision Quest.

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 04:07 (twenty-two years ago)

gee, I wonder why?

― James Blount (James Blount), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 05:23 (twenty-two years ago)

actually, the first CD is bought was elvis costello's my aim is true (wherein resides "less than zero"). still have it, in fact.

― Tad (llamasfur), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 05:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Ned, music god, how could LTZ be the first CD you ever bought?

I didn't say first album I ever bought, did I? ;-) First CD because that was the first time the family had a CD player (and my parents still have it, a fine ol' Sony model from 1987 or so). First album I ever bought -- well, that was a batch of things from the RCA Record Club back in 1983 or so, I'm pretty sure, and that included Rio and Pyromania, so hey.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 06:25 (twenty-two years ago)

ahh, I got you. Evidence that CD has so fully entered out vocabulary to mean "group of songs released by an artist."

― That Girl (thatgirl), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 12:35 (twenty-two years ago)

For Nate - http://www.mp3.sakha.net/?file=3425

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 12:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Andrew Farrell = "Sabotage", Beastie Boys

JBR = that Milli Vanilli song from Ruby's jukebox

― Millar (Millar), Friday, 18 July 2003 19:50 (twenty-two years ago)

But it needs the interjection from the one guy in Ruby's to make it priceless.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 18 July 2003 19:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Is it just me, or is jewelly obsessed with Ally's ass?

I heard "Control I'm Here" the other day, and for some reason it reminded me of Alex in NYC.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 18 July 2003 19:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, Tep, thanks for e-mailing those lovely pictures of your penis, but I'm perfectly content being obsessed with Ally's ass, k?

― jewelly (jewelly), Friday, 18 July 2003 21:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Who wouldn't be content with that?!

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 18 July 2003 21:48 (twenty-two years ago)

For future reference, then, in no way should my penis be used or construed as a substitute for Ally's ass. Noted, with ambivalence.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 18 July 2003 21:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Goddammit, Tep -- that WASN'T an invitation to send me pictures of your ASS! Eww, it's all hairy and stained.

― jewelly (jewelly), Friday, 18 July 2003 21:54 (twenty-two years ago)

That's my cat, dammit!

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 18 July 2003 21:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Your cat is taking pictures of your ass and e-mailing them to me? What a strange cat.

― jewelly (jewelly), Friday, 18 July 2003 21:57 (twenty-two years ago)

for me "Here Comes The Night" belongs to dave q, somebody linked to his blog one day and was talkin about it, gushing really, as the song rightly deserves

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 18 July 2003 22:00 (twenty-two years ago)

I heard "Control I'm Here" the other day, and for some reason it reminded me of Alex in NYC.

Ah Nitzer Ebb's finest moment. I can totally live with that.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 18 July 2003 23:28 (twenty-two years ago)

You must've mentioned it on some thread somewhere (it was the first time I'd heard it since ILXing, I'm pretty sure, so that's gotta be it).

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 18 July 2003 23:31 (twenty-two years ago)
