Joe, I just emailed you. You might need to fish it out of your spam filter.
Spidra, I think there might be some Dresden Dolls up at Buffistarawk. I like them very much. "Coin Operated Boy" seems to be their best loved song, though I expect opinions will vary. You can hear a live version of that song at their website.
Thanks, Jon. I'd probably like them. Although I'm just stupid enough to be balky about it because of how hip they are among certain circles here. Heh.
"punk cabaret" -- They're a duo, piano and drums usually. The music is rather Brechtian. Check out the website: [link]
The Dresden Dolls are a lot of fun. I need to go pick up the new CD.
"Coin Operated Boy" seems to be their best loved song, though I expect opinions will vary.
I'm very fond of "Good Day" the lead track off the first album (with the great kiss-off line "I'd like to do more than survive, I'd like to rub it in your face!") and "Gravity", and I'd be hard pressed to come up with a scarier psycho-chick song than "Missed Me."
I really need to get around to listening to the new disc. My listening habits have gotten appalling.
I remember somebody here had an opinion about it but was too lazy to search for it.
Sure, that's what everyone tells the nitwit.

OMG. Jazz accordion.
I friggin' hate octopi. Die octopus scum.
Non-Spring! Sibling!
And on topic, anybody else heard of The Gossip? I've been seeing their video "Standing in the Way of Control" on Logo. Lead singer Beth Ditto sounds like she's trying to channel Janis Joplin, and quite successfully, too.
(Edited to correct the lead singer's name.)
So, yesterday and today, CNN.com had a pair of articles on the worst songs ever written.
Worth a nice giggle, and seeing how your opinions on the subject match up with the author and readers.
