Should I bring anything with me today?
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:17pm Sean Daily:

"Robot High School". Verah nahce.

Oh and... First comment after Stella's comment! Woo hoo!
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:17pm AnAnonymousParty:

If Kenny G ever needs a name for his show, might I suggest "Kenny G's virtual LSD experience"?
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:19pm Steve Barton:

Hard to top the previous name (and "logo") of Kenny G's show...
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:27pm Cecile:

I loved that version of Dazed and Confused!
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:27pm paulthepostman:

hi everyone in wfmuland....and yet, Kenny G's page is so, minimalist.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:30pm annie:

annonymouse, funny, that comment, i am just looking at versions of a "trip" in productions of hair..
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:31pm annie:

the tune "walking on air", all the various interpretations..
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:35pm Lloyd Fisk:

Does anyone remember this album? The lambchop song reminded me of it.

  Wed. 12/17/08 3:37pm Bruce from Capitol Hill:

And, but, and or!

Wonderful memories!!!!!!!

Thanks Irwin.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:40pm AnAnonymousParty:

Suddenly I'm 8 years old again. Hey. where's my milk and cookies?
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:40pm annie:

i loved romper room..
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:41pm annie:

and she never said my name!!! never!!
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:42pm Bruce from Capitol Hill:

I don't know nothin' about birthing babies.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:42pm AnAnonymousParty:

Yes she did. She never said MY name.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:44pm Cecile:

Yow.
I should dig out that Singing Doctors record.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:45pm sugarwolf:

They never said my name on Romper Room or Magic Garden.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:46pm Pajak:

Is it me or did he say "fulfoaling dream"?
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:47pm Cecile:

there are 3 VERSIONs of this?
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:47pm AnAnonymousParty:

This isn't going to turn into one of those marathons where you hear 47 different version of 'Louie, Louie', is it?
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:48pm Clark Barr:

Miss Janey never called my name out on Romper Room either. It left me scarred for life :-(
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:48pm Cecile:

three versions...
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:48pm Joe:

I think Irwin was just reminding us to Choose Life.


Seriously though, they should play that song in abortion clinics.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:49pm Laura L:

Got any cranioclast songs? Yeah, well, go look it up! Frank Perry was the best--he got the wiff in midwivery.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:49pm AnAnonymousParty:

I always wondered what Charlie Brown's teacher was really saying.
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:51pm Clark Barr:

Frankie says Relaz Don't Do It!
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:55pm annie:

i lost my feeling of the magic of teevee when that happened.. but captain kangaroo always loved me..
  Wed. 12/17/08 3:55pm listener:

Irwin, what's the story behind that triumvirate of midwifery songs?
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:01pm Carmichael:

I come back from a meeting to find I missed "Conjunction Junction". Next to "Kilograms", that was my favorite SR song.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:04pm Carmichael:

Windows Media Link down??
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:05pm Cecile:

My WM just died
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:05pm wha?:

I'm getting dropouts too.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:06pm annie:

cutting in and out ...aarrgghh
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:06pm Carmichael:

Great, right when Martin Newell comes on. Just take away Christmas .....
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:07pm Laura L:

Me too, on iTunes on Macintosh. Hells bells!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:09pm Carmichael:

Back on!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:09pm mourner:

Ditto WMP report/inquiry.
Gone...gone...all is deprivation..
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:10pm Cecile:

mine is back!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:10pm Steve Barton:

128k stream works now.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:13pm annie:

yup, mine as well..whew!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:14pm Steve Barton:

Remembered image that warms my cockles: Martin Newell in a funny hat. Ah, thanks Irving.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:16pm paulthepostman:

i love itunes mps 128 more and more the more I hear it more and more.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:17pm Ken:

Streams were down.. but are back up now. Sorry! It's Not My Fault!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:19pm Carmchael:

Irwin, was that your book that had the article on Martin Newell? He was staring into a broken piece of mirror. Great article.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:28pm Cecile:

I keep hearing the old Steve Miller stuff, and I wonder how the hell crap like Abracadabra and the Joker came about...
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:29pm Cecile:

wow...I forgot about the first "scratch break" on this.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:29pm Carmichael:

Don't get me started, Cecile .... >:(
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:30pm paulthepostman:

NIce funkyhappywhacky selection mr dj.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:30pm Joe Bacon:

Cecile, it's the money. Or maybe that influence from Tony Orlando and Dawn
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:31pm Carmichael:

It's a cause-and-effect association with ex-lax.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:32pm Carmichael:

Speaking of birthdays, Keith Richards turned 100 today.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:32pm Steve Barton:

Notwithstanding this show's title, I have faith that Irwin will always appreciate and share well-produced pop songs, whatever the hormonic origin. And if the singer is wearing a tall hat, that's another plus.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:33pm Joe:

I would say that everything after "Rock Love" sucks... but I kinda like "Fly like an Eagle". I am also a lame-o, however.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:33pm Carmichael:

Sorry, he's still 99 until tomorrow.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:37pm Carmichael:

Steve Barton, I bet you're hoping the Cat in the Hat puts out a solo work. By your standards, it'll go platinum.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:46pm Clark Barr:

Wow! The Cat In The Hat--Wasn't that the last thing Allan Sherman did before he OD'd on butter cookies?
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:46pm Steve Barton:

Well...that sounds great! Would you like to hear how my own collection of funny hats has shrunk over the years and none of 'em fit any more?!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:47pm Cecile:

well, fly like an Eagle is like flippin' Beethoven compared to Book of Dreams...
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:47pm Bad Ronald:

I'd get anything by Thing 1 and Thing 2!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:49pm Cecile:

I dig the Lorax. He speaks for the trees.
Much like early Devendra Barnhart. ;)
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:49pm Carmichael:

I hope they never break up.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:49pm Joe Bacon:

I got "My Thang" by James Brown! unhhhhhhhhhh!
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:53pm kathulhu:

This Jan & Lorraine is lovely! I may have to scoop this record into three red bags next time I meet her at the train station.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:53pm Bad Ronald:

I heard that the Lorax was "the 3rd Thing".
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:54pm annie:

what was that middle thing?
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:54pm Vicki:

evening
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:59pm Bad Ronald:

Yeah, "the cute one".

Hey Vicki, you and your shenanigans are creating quite a buzz, congrats! I caught the bit on Boing Boing.
  Wed. 12/17/08 4:59pm esch oder anarchie!:

Wenn Klaus Beyer, dann warum nicht Max Goldt? Also bitte Max Goldt bitte!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:00pm Clark Barr:

Was Klaus auditioning for The Gong Show?
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:03pm Bad Ronald:

Then again you voted for McCain, Irwin!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:03pm Cecile:

If you talk smack about Phil Rudd, it's war, Irwin. WAR!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:05pm Vicki:

what do you mean, Bad Ronald? I don't know about anything on Boing Boing
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:09pm Clark Barr:

Mr Letter To A Christian should have burned all his Playboys.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:09pm Cecile:

Wow, this sounds like Jack Chick sent in the words.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:09pm Sean Daily:

This is some lounge-tastic agnosticism, Irwin.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:10pm Bad Ronald:

Hmm... it may have been Neatorama...
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:11pm Carmichael:

I'm doing The Swim ....
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:12pm Vicki:

what was it about? I never search myself. So to speak.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:12pm Harvey:

Irwin, watch your mouth
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:14pm Bad Ronald:

You, FMU, PLU, Ergo and the mashes....
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:14pm Joe Bacon:

Remember that Jesus Saves but Moses Invests!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:15pm Carmichael:

Now I'm Boppin' .....
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:16pm Sean Daily:

Jesus saves...

Passes to Noah...

He shoots... HE SCORES!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:16pm Cecile:

Is this Jason Falkner the guy from the Hoodoo Gurus or am I getting something mixed up?
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:16pm Vicki:

that one passed me by, Bad Ronald. If you remember the article could you send it onto me - you can get in touch through the fmu site... thanks!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:20pm Carmichael:

That's Dave Faulkner.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:21pm Bad Ronald:

NP
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:23pm Joe:

Yup... everyone remembers the Great Depression of '95... hard times those were, indeed... indeeeeeeed.

I had to eat my shoes, I did.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:38pm Joe Bacon:

When you hear Y, he makes you cry!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:38pm Irwin:

I play this stuff to keep Laura L. sane.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:39pm Laura L:

Y. Bhekhirst! Thank you!!!!!!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:39pm Irwin:

Next one too.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:40pm Joe Bacon:

More "Y"! More "Y"!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:40pm Bad Ronald:

  Wed. 12/17/08 5:42pm Cecile:

what's to understand?
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:47pm Bad Ronald:

Cuzzbocks! Hell yes!!!!!
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:55pm Carmichael:

Thanks for the last 3 hours of music, Gentleperson.
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:55pm Sean Daily:

What's wrong with CDs? You mean you don't share the pervasive technological triumphalism of the concensus ZEIT-GEISHT, Irwin? What are you? French?
  Wed. 12/17/08 5:59pm Joe Bacon:

OK, here's #100
  Wed. 12/17/08 6:00pm daniel Gatenio:
