Like Leon Redbone unique.

[GReedDiamond]

45. Todd is Godd...nt

[Clouds Passing]

48. Todd is genius!

[electric_blue68]

64. Definitely like Tom. One of my favorite free form DJ's played his song...

"Just One Victory" a song I'd never heard in Oct '92 after the 2 Raygun terms, and Ford's one term for the '92 Election.

It was so perfect for us Dems!

[Clouds Passing]

66. Just One Victory is an anthem.

[Basso8vb]

2. The Ballad of Jenny Ledge by Toy Matinee

One of my favorites and one of the songs on the playlist in my head.

[nikatnyte]

13. I love this song!

Their whole album is filled with great music.

[LSparkle]

22. I love "We Always Come Home" from that LP

I remember hearing it just as I drove up to my family’s home on Christmas Eve 1999. I was living in NYC and had flown in to California, driving a rental car and listened to the CD on the way. I think it was the last song and it ended right before I went into the house. 😊

3. "Days of the Theocracy" by Kristen Lems.

[displacedvermoter]

4. Poison Girl

Chris Whitley (from Living with the Law)

[thomski64]

and so am I...


Older than despicable dipshit Don...

[LakeArenal]

21. Ageless. ❤️

[Walleye]

27. Great song. Never gets old

[Medical_Mom]

41. My Dude wanted me to tell you that you would be wrong on this one

He said he knows every word to every song on that album and has been spinning it since it came out in the early 90's, and that's one of his very favorites on it

…and now we’re listening to it

[Kittycatkat]

5. "Cool Change" - Little River Band

[hlthe2b]

6. John Denver: Aerie (The Eagle and the Hawk)-- brings me to tears every time.

Nice Raptor footage:

10. Portishead - Glory Box (Give me a reason to love you)

[Gaytano70]

11. "Origin of Love"

From Hedwig and the Angry Itch

?si=MugajEz0ptr6fLVu

Anyone else? 😁

[Leghorn21]

40. Good pick, Gaytano!! That entire soundtrack was FAN FKN TASTIC and should have nabbed a few Grammys, FOR REAL

When Stephen Trask wasn’t even *nominated*, that’s when I was officially done with Grammys, over and OUT

“Wig In A Box”, “Wicked Little Town”, “Sugar Daddy”, “Tear Me Down”, “Origin of Love” - perfect songs, all

And dammit, a great GREAT movie that never gets talked about, you know? I do not comprehend the lack of adoration for this film, like, on an international/intergalactic level!! w e i r d

Thanks for your post, g70!!

[Gaytano70]

46. Thank you!!!

Yeah, Leg! I'm happy someone else shows some love for Miss Hedwig!
The musical is definitely a cult hit, so not surprising the mainstream does not award it. In 2000, the original Off-Broadway cast was nominated for Best Musical Theatre Album, and the Broadway revival was nominated in 2015.
The blu-ray of the movie has some cut footage of Yitzhak that is really fun. See it if you can!

[Laffy Kat]

12. NO!

Everyone will laugh at me.

[Gaytano70]

17. Naw, come on!

I posted a musical theater song, you can post yours!

[ProfessorGAC]

24. From The Early 80s

It's from the Beat album. It was the period with Adrian Belew & Tony Levin.
I'm going to see Belew, Levin, Vai, & Carey who are going to play the songs from these 3 albums.
They're doing this tour with the complete blessing of Fripp & Bruford who just can't tour anymore.
I've got VIP tickets, too.
Beautiful small venue. (1,850 seats). Have to wait until early November, though.

42. Had to Hear...

yeah, that's the name of it, by Real Estate.

[some_of_us_are_sane]

53. I Love it!

The sincereity and poignancy can't be beat. Lovely. Thank you.

[greatauntoftriplets]

54. You're welcome.

I can't remember where or when I first heard it, but there's something about the Way Huston talks the song that is very appealing. The lyrics are by Maxwell Anderson and the music Kurt Weill for a 1938 musical "Knickerbocker Holiday".
