Oh, hi. I almost didn't see you sitting there and how could I have missed you? Before you take all my breath away, why don't you slip away with me? What are we going to do? Well... I don't wanna spoil it for you but I can see us singing some songs, maybe take in a film or a show? Let's see where the evening takes us. I see us slow dancing under the moonlight lost in each other's eyes. Do you like to laugh? Of course you do. Will you laugh for me? Maybe just a little lau-- Wait, is that your laugh? It is? No-- Please don't do that again. Just take my hand and remember this magic is only for tonight. Join me in our One Night Stand.

↳ Aitch @11:01
ha totally
  11:09pm
Androu B.:

Yeah, Russell's schtick is to just sit at the keyboard and play straight man, no acting up, just keeps his mind and eyes focused on the keyboard.

My first time hearing Sparks was when "Angst In My Pants" came out and the first videos from that album showed up on MTV, while the album got occasional rotation on college & alternative stations. Only after that did I learn about their discography up until then.

This Town Aint Big enough I heard a kid, but then a bit later #1 Song was used as backing music for the dancers on Kenny Everett video show. Always stuck in my mind.

On the video for "Cool Places", Russell did this "pogo dance" where he just hops up on one leg for two beats, then switches legs on the next two.

Bob, your description of what a special night it was reminds me of when i saw Danny Elfman performing/singing the score to "Nightmare Before Christmas" along with the film, and he invited Tim Burton out onto the stage. Burton looked out and marveled: "The Hollywood Bowl..." then pointed at Elfman: "I remember when you guys used to play at the Toilet Bowl"!
