Voices Carry, Yet (Paradoxically), Our Lips Are Sealed

I think the combination of these two songs turns the lyrics to the Go Go's bouncy pop hit into the paranoid rantings of a delusional schizophrenic. Perhaps he is asking,"can you hear them?" in hopes that he is not alone in hearing them. Perhaps the voices are being carried in his head...Perhaps.

Don't cry Jesus

Here's a little something I found while playing around with Photo Booth on my computer yesterday. If I recall correctly, this is Elicious and me around a year to a year and a half ago testing how the ukulele sounded shooting video with Photo Booth.

It's short and somewhat amusing (I think) so I thought I'd share...

Dance Me to the End of the Set List

Looking for links to the set list of my imaginary musical carreer, I started with Leonard Cohen's "Dance Me to the End of Love." Apparently it's on a lot of people's set list. After 2 hours of looking at various versions I leave you with Leonard's own whacky video:

and a lovely version by Madeleine Peyroux

Next up: Van Morrison's "The Way Young Lover's Do."

I like Maria McKee's version, but I couldn't find a good link for it.

Case of the Fat Cat

I don't have any music vids to add, but I want all you cat lovers to meet the cats in my life this year. Booger and Ralphie were brothers and had lived together always. Ralphie died in November and Booger may need a puppy to keep him occupied.

Well, Damn If It Ain't a MAD WORLD

Much Nanny Was Hootened

First we got married in a fever...

Then Ericka insisted that we NOT get married...

We may just be 'Driftwood'...

But ultimately 'We Become Silhouettes'

It seems that Bobcat Goldthwait and Catherine Hepburn are touring as the band 'Bobkate Hepthwait.' They stopped by and insisted on recording their own version of 'Jackson.' I insisted on not posting it, but they pulled some of their typical 'Do-You-Know-Who-We-Are?' Star Bullshit...so here it is.
