Needs to be #1

That sure is a young Rufus.

In retrospect, Rufus T. Firefly seems like a decent head of state.

I recently fell in love with Andrew Bird's 2001 'The Swimming Hour'. It is an eclectic blend of musical traditions, but put together in a way that feels special. It is intimate, passionate, dynamic and features some great playing. I think they recorded the performances live because you can feel the musicians vibing off of each other, (and also because there is one rhythmic flub in the second tune that suggests they tuned weren't tracked with a click). I also love that it is an 'album' and not just a collection of songs. There is flow and purpose from start to finish. The instrumentation is also very eclectic. It reminds me a bit of 'Poses' by Rufus Wainwright. Here are a couple tracks....

I had a dream about this movie once...

Oceanic Flight 815, en route to Earth 2, crash lands on a desert planet infested with giant sand worms and zombies. In an attempt to get home, the survivors encounter Jeffrey Sinclair on board a space station caught in a time rift, who reveals that he has been chasing Q who is commanding an army of half-Scarran, half-Sylons with Goa'uld symbiotes to conquer a magical island in Neverland. And the only one who can save the universe is Jim Raynor, captain of a stolen Firefly, and his life partner, a half Wookie, half Time Lord who has sworn a life debt to the captain. They have a depressed robot sex slave who isn't attracted to them and each of them owns a power ring, bestowed to them by the Guardians of the Universe (who are all dwarves, except for one of them who is Tom Waits).

You don't even want to know who the crew of the Firefly is. It will blow your fucking mind. Ok, I'll tell you: Napoleon, Socrates, Sigmund Fruuud, Billy the Kid, Genghis Kahn, and Ludwig Van; then for some reason Whoopie Goldberg is there with William Shatner, Patrick Stewart, and Malcolm McDowell, who can't stop pining over Beethoven. At the end of the movie, the crew is clean cut, the robots are all shiny, and the ghosts of Bill Hicks, Rufus, Obi-wan, Pizza the Hut, Dr. Frankenfurter, and Alf are all sitting around waiting for you to wake up -- but, when you wake up -- you're Homer Simpson! OMG don't tell ANYONE about the twist ending or the sequel where he meets Hank Hill who gets abducted by aliens and meets spooky Fox Mulder and that sexy redhead Leeloo.

My mind is exploding! There may be another me who isn't as awesome as the real me and enjoyed the movie The Notebook... Pshhhhhh -- Frell the frack off. Every alternate reality of me smokes pot and makes or plays video games. Stop trying to change me, universe!

Great sound to this song, I like her moves.


Likewise. Glad you like it.

She did have a way about her. She also cowrote the song.

Chaka Khan still sounds good, not as much fun to look at though.

"I got something that'll sho nuff set your stuff on fire."


I saw that. I rather wish I didn't. Don't quite know what else to say.(Shaking head)

I prefer it when Jimmy's a bit more prepared. Or at least has a bit more time to think about a joke (e.g. the hooker joke).

At least he's a lot funnier than that Rufus guy.

Glad you like it. Just quietly, I have a few Teddy Thompson tunes in my pq, one of which is another Leonard Cohen song, and another is a duet with Rufus Wainwright.

Teddy and Rufus are good mates.

Surely the world's greatest ever song writer. He's a living legend, but I prefer this version more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy0Bl18qLvw


Sheeeit, so do I, now! Thanks for that! He sounds very slightly like Rufus Wainwright.

This would have been much better without Moby and Sean Lennon - talentless out of tune bastards. Upvote for Rufus, who is awesome.

Rufus sure has gotten long hair.

This beautiful collaboration has been sitting on 9 for too long:
