It's never been released on VHS or DVD. I assume that securing the music rights would be quite difficult.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Happy Gordon Lightfoot's birthday everybody.

Happy Gordon Lightfoot's birthday everybody.
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like an old time movie
About ghost from a wishing well....

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I have no problem with Newsom's voice, and I really enjoyed Milk-Eyed Mender, but I'm not yet convinced by Ys. At first listen, the songs meander without really going anywhere. The arrangements are lovely, but there's not enough movement in the songs to maintain my interest.
Of course, I think Devandra is the Emporer's New Clothes.
t on edit after reading further
But Newsom has a deeper purpose here. She's told interviewers that Ys is a kind of confessional-allegorical epic, a "shadow world," whose every lyric corresponds to events in her personal life. It's startling to think that this torrent of imagery—all those swooping birds and stableboys and livestock and "felten and grey" mountains—is part of an elaborate personal mythology, and I'm sure that in the coming months and years the Internet will crackle with efforts to break the code.
See, I don't buy it. I think at best, she's embellishing her craft; at worst, she's making shit up after the fact.

Have you guys heard of Juana Molina? A friend of mine was telling me about her but I had never heard her or heard of her.

I haven't heard Ys. yet, but I'm looking forward to it.

See, I loved Cripple Crow a lot for being a lovely blend of tropicalia and American folk music.
Edit - Sumi, nope.

Nice Slate article on Joanna Newsom's new album.
It's funny you should mention it, because I just ran into a friend this afternoon who was listening to this on her iPod, and I had never heard of her.

Like Jon and a few other people here (I remember that Tina put one of her songs on a mix), I liked The Milk-Eyed Mender, too, but it took me a little while to get past that voice.
