Damn now I want to go shopping!

♥ 4:03pm Michael 98145:

4:04pm Cecile:

I have no problem if she chooses to identify herself as a male telephone, but it didn't really scan with the rest of the song.

♥ 4:07pm fleep:

Outside absorbing some ray, heard the bed music and thought, goshies, it's a Monica sub. Much wow.

4:09pm Cecile:

I only karaoke to Trio, Kraftwerk, Verka Seduchka, and Sabotage by the Beastie Boys

♥ 4:10pm listener james from westwood:

Well now I know partly why I dug Electribe so much, other than its being house: Billie Ray Martin!

♥ 4:11pm ncjay:

@Cecile, IIRC the 12" cover has the title rendered as Call Me 'Mr.' Telephone - which changes the meaning a bit!

4:12pm Monica:

yo there, fleep! ha, get in line, michael....yes, ljfw...

4:12pm TehBadDr:

Satchmo!

♥ 4:14pm ncjay:

4:31pm Thee BDub:

Hey Sheila, nice set! The last one reminded me of a band I saw once at Irving plaza from Barcelona- Ojos de Brujos look em up if you've never heard. Think they broke up long time ago unfortunately... Gypsy funk!

@BC: Cool, seemed unlikely, but ...

5:05pm Brian Cat:

It's part of my last name, which is named after a city in Italy.

5:05pm Mark R:
