#1 would just be "P" as opposed to the full PMD. otherwise known as P-P in the formal sense. speaking of which, i gotta go see a man about a horse. ...whatever the hell that means. | |

"Regret" is the best song they've done since the "Technique" album. Thanks for playing it, Irwin. | |

Hi Irwin: Hey the show was sounding great to my ears till New Order- what kind of music is this- I guess this is the kind of sound that I referred to as country. So it's not country, but it's got those twangy guitars and men singing in their upper registers. Maybe I go for the Barry Whites and Isaac Hayes- no Smokey and Marvin sang in upper registers. old Ceremony- there it is again- the same kind of sound. Sorry, it's not for me. But surely, the sound will change soon. Your playlist is always eclectic. | |

Duke of Earl Grey:
I've always loved "Regret" too. Would've been a #1 hit on the same planet where so many FMU power pop faves would've been #1s. | |

I love it that Jan referred to Regret (or any New Order song as country)! That's pretty awesome. | |

Well, I'm not fully up on the nomenclature of the music genres in play today, and especially as I only listen to WFMU and not a country station. Normally I don't get to comment on country radio. Irwin, I know that you follow your musical passions and that is why I follow you. | |

Blues Project! I still listen to this now and again, and believe you me, I am not one for dwelling in the musical past of my adolescence. It's just that this music seems to have aged very well. | |

Hey, Looms... love your comment about a "mainstream show," and don't disagree, but... you created an Amanda moment! | |

jan:
Still sounds good, Irwin. I know that the comments directed at me are amusing to the listeners and me. But I figure if I comment on the show, over time the show will evolve to just the kind of music that I like. My assistant likes Amanda! I'm somewhat tired of her, but this Chaos cut is better than most. | |

I never thought I'd say this, but I think I have determined that there IS such a thing as too much Amanda after all . . . | |

Amanda's spinal tap procedure didn't go so well. She now has consistant pain in her lower back and needs opioids to releve it. | |
