WFMU: Therese: Playlist from January 3, 2021

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 6:03pm B R M: Fun story: the first big show I ever got to choose to see was R.E.M. in Detroit, and Camper Van Beethoven opened up. My step dad did not like them, so he went to use the bathroom. I did not see him until the end of the full show. I asked him where he was, and he said "everyone assumed I was an usher, so I just started seating people. I had fun."
	♥ 6:03pm chresti: Hi Therese and Carol and company! Happy New Year!
	🎸 ♥ 6:04pm K8: Yay Sunday! Yay Therese! Yay Miss Hannigan and Follies, and whew! This is a lot of yay-ing...
	♥ 6:04pm Therese: @BRM that is an AMAZING anecdote.
	♥ 6:05pm Therese: Hiya, Chresti and K8!
	♥ 6:06pm chresti: Haha BRM.
	🎸 ♥ 6:06pm K8: @ B R M, your stepdad sounds like a cool guy! Very happy to be here, Therese and everybody!
	6:06pm wendy del formaggio: Hello and Happy New Year, Therese!
	6:07pm Feff Cacho: I didn’t know I had a weight on my shoulders, until this song just lifted it. Thanks DJ!
	6:07pm Jett: Happy New Year @Therese Great to hear you tonight. Sad about Gerry Marsden 's death. I know your show will cheer me up.
	🎸 ♥ 6:09pm K8: @ Wendy del formaggio...hey there, my friend! Hope 2021 is treating you well so far!
	♥ 6:09pm chresti: BRM- good thing you didn't have to ask someone on stage to page him.
	6:12pm wendy del formaggio: @K8! I’m doing ok. Nice to see you here. :-)
	6:13pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Hi Therese, thanks for keeping the vibes vibing
	♥ 6:13pm Roberto: I think I answered a phone call from Paul Gemignani once when I was a kid.
	♥ 6:13pm Therese: Was he calling on behalf of the Boss, @Roberto?
	♥ 6:14pm Roberto: He was calling for my dad I guess. My 'rents are in da biz.
	6:14pm ?: Hi Therese
	🎸 ♥ 6:15pm K8: Do you have a shirt you really love?
	🎸 ♥ 6:15pm K8: Donovan is so delightfully ridiculous...
	🎸 ♥ 6:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Therese and assembly! We survived the dreaded 2020! Happy new Year!
	♥ 6:18pm chresti: I don't know of any shirts that I love, like, yes.
	♥ 6:18pm efd: Good evening Therese and therest!
	♥ 6:18pm Therese: @Roberto, ah, I see. And by the biz, you mean the industry.
	♥ 6:19pm Therese: Hey, @KenFHP and @EFD!
	♥ 6:21pm Therese: And hello @Wendy and Jett and Feff Cacho and Dave!
	♥ 6:22pm Roberto: Ja, der industrie. You know how in the '70s, when someone called your house, you didn't know who it was in advance of answering? So you took a chance and answered. Then you took a hand-written message when it wasn't for you.
	♥ 6:26pm northguineahills: Loaf, saw them many times in HS....
	♥ 6:27pm Scott67: G'day Therese & mob.
	♥ 6:28pm Franco Twinkie: Happy New Year to you!
	♥ 6:29pm medson: Smugglers Attic?
	♥ 6:29pm HyperDose: Only head shop in Jersey I've been to is Outta Control smoke shop in Keyport. Nice little place.
	♥ 6:30pm Roberto: Somehow, I never encountered patchouli until the late '80s. I seriously thought the guy wearing it had some kind of glandular condition.
	♥ 6:30pm chresti: Haha
	♥ 6:30pm WR: i wondered which business Paul Gemignani was in, Wikipedia tells me he took over as music as music director for Sondheim on Follies and was pretty much the music director for all Sondheim musicals and many many other musicals as well.
	6:31pm Doug in JC: Oh man, Rockaway Mall
	♥ 6:31pm Therese: @medson and @HyperDose- it was called A Head of our Tyme.
	♥ 6:31pm Roberto: Yeah, my dad worked with Sondheim et al in the '70s, so I'm guessing that's how he knew Paul G.
	6:31pm Doug in JC: @Hyperdose What was the punk store in Keyport?
	♥ 6:32pm Therese: The Rockaway Mall was the only mall, @Doug.
	♥ 6:32pm chresti: I have this Palo Santo essential oil that's nice.
	♥ 6:33pm Franco Twinkie: You're lucky Therese, patchouli oil was still illegal when I was in high school.
	6:34pm Jett: @Therese I'm sure you had a nice scent back then. It's always nice to reminisce about high school days. I was talking with old friend about high school this week. It's funny, this guy is a bit older than me and we found out that we both attended the same high school. The year after he graduated, I started there.
	♥ 6:34pm Scott67: Week long wear is a normal thing for me Therese. Only people who pong change daily 😉
	♥ 6:35pm HyperDose: @Doug No idea, sorry. A friend and I looked Outta Control up online and made the pilgrimage. Only place in Keyport I've ever been. That friend and the piece I bought are no longer around, but I cherish the memories.
	6:35pm Doug in JC: @therese Remember when there would be 50 kids hanging out at the back entrance? I don't think they do that anymore
	♥ 6:36pm chresti: I had strawberry oil when I was a kid, I got pretty repulsed by it after a while.
	♥ 6:36pm Therese: @Doug- did you prefer the inner or outer movie theaters?
	♥ 6:36pm adamdoesit: Happy new year, Therese!
	🎸 ♥ 6:37pm Handy Haversack: Hello, Therese and Sunday Spectaculars! Sorry I'm late! Happy New Year to those I haven't seen yet (heck, even some of those I have)!
	6:38pm Doug in JC: @therese Tough call! Maybe outer. Things were a lot more lawless over there, plus there was chinese food
	♥ 6:38pm Franco Twinkie: Handy, I'll bet you liked to oil up in High school.
	6:38pm Jason: @theresa I used to go to the same dead shop in Newton when I was in high school (High Point) to get my little vials of patchouli oil! You brought back some memories. Listening from Ottawa.
	♥ 6:38pm HyperDose: @chresti Saw strawberry scented shampoo at the store as a kid and thought it sounded cool....got eaten alive by bugs that summer. Still love strawberries!
	6:39pm Doug in JC: @Handy @K8 Happy new year!
	♥ 6:40pm Scott67: Chresti, fake strawberry scent is an instant nausea inducer for me.
	6:40pm NikiA: Hi Handy et al. Therese, great show. love it.
	♥ 6:40pm Therese: Happy new year, Scott67, Handy, Franco, Adam and Jason!
	♥ 6:40pm northguineahills: I had a dream where I found a comp called, "Loud Women score 10s! Vol 5". It had a pic of the Slits on the cover.....(I woke before I could listen to it).
	♥ 6:41pm Scott67: & a Happier New one to you too Therese. Much, much happier! ♡
	♥ 6:42pm chresti: G'day Scott67, cheers!
	🎸 ♥ 6:42pm K8: @ Doug...Hiiii! Happy 2021!
	🎸 ♥ 6:42pm Handy Haversack: Happy New Year, Doug! Scott, HyperDose, Franco, NikiA, ngh, chresti, hi! That Archers of Loaf was a blast from the past. I recognized it only from having seen them live a looooong time ago, but several times. A friend in college was super into them -- and even more into one Archer specifically. We saw them a few times in NYC. Franco, I don't think I could afford oils? At any rate, I never had any. I had enough trouble staying in Dorals and other off-brand cigarettes!
	♥ 6:43pm Scott67: Cheers chresti! 😎
	♥ 6:43pm Therese: Hello, NikiA, thanks for checking in! @NorthGuineaHills- that sounds like a great comp!
	♥ 6:43pm Scott67: Hey Handy!
	🎸 ♥ 6:44pm Handy Haversack: Yes!
	♥ 6:44pm Scott67: Cured my morning Therese, thanks!
	♥ 6:44pm Therese: Oh, and an update for those who were concerned- the Second Street Bakery's oven is fixed and they are open again!
	♥ 6:45pm chresti: Handy-Kents.
	6:45pm Doug in JC: @Therese PHEWWWW. That sounded like one of those things that could snowball for a small business
	6:47pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: How YOUNG the Cure sounded there
	🎸 ♥ 6:47pm steveo: Did anyone else do a little triplet step while dancing to boys don't cry?
	♥ 6:48pm chresti: Yes, steveo, I was stepping.
	🎸 ♥ 6:48pm Handy Haversack: OK, Therese, that news means that we'll be coming back to JC ASAP with more treats. I was driving myself crazy looking at their menu.
	🎸 ♥ 6:48pm steveo: 👍👍👍
	6:51pm Doug in JC: Handy, plan some lunch trip and let me know
	♥ 6:51pm chresti: Handy, Taste me, taste me, come on taste me. Take a puff and let me do my stuff!, popped into my head at the mention of Dorals.
	🎸 ♥ 6:51pm Handy Haversack: Will do, Doug!
	♥ 6:52pm chresti: Great set, Therese!
	6:52pm Jett: I love The Zombies, legendary band!
	♥ 6:52pm mariano: Happy 2021, Therese and everyone!
	6:53pm Frege's Nightmare: the old and the new and the eternal!!
	♥ 6:54pm chresti: Zombies, man.
	6:55pm Listener Robert: Yeah, it's not even Orthodox Christmas yet, so it couldn't be 2021 Julian.
	7:02pm Jett: I'm really enjoying your commentaries tonight @Therese
	♥ 7:02pm slugluv1313: Good Evening and Happy New Year!!! Therese, Skeletons, Everyone! WOW thanks so much for "I'm Still Here" -- not familiar with that amazing Carol Burnett version! -- but that song has been popping up, like this recurring theme past couple of weeks :) (isn't there a story about how Elaine Stritch stated that no-one under the age of 80 has any business singing that -- ?)
	♥ 7:03pm PaulRobeson1920: Happy 2021, Therese and everyone! Hoooray!
	♥ 7:04pm Therese: @slugluv1313- you might be psychic, stay tuned!
	♥ 7:06pm chresti: I think slugluv is psychic.
	♥ 7:06pm slugluv1313: awww man, i remember strawberry oil, patchouli, jasmine, etc. . . . does anybody remember Styx? "spell spinning spray," etc.
	7:06pm The Mole: Re: Jillian Anderson's affected accent, Wikipedia sex, "Born in Chicago, Anderson grew up in London and Grand Rapids, Michigan." Apparently she was mercilessly teased about her accent in Grammar School in England. or something.
	7:07pm The Mole: *sex, obvs
	7:08pm The Mole: f'n autocorrect!! SEZ!!!
	7:09pm Jett: I remember a entertainingly crappy rock band called Styx.
	♥ 7:10pm efd: proud to say I ID'd this BCR song even before the bass came in!
	7:11pm Jett: I remember The Bay City Rollers were featured on Punk Magazine, great article back in the seventies.
	♥ 7:11pm Therese: I knew you would, @efd!
	7:11pm ?: Gillian's family stayed in the north London neighborhood of Crouch End until she was 11 years old, at which point her family returned to the United States and settled in Grand Rapids, Mich. But the Anderson family kept their apartment in London, and they traveled across the ocean every year so that she, along with her sister Zoe and brother Aaron, could spend her summers there.
	♥ 7:11pm chresti: Haha Mole.
	♥ 7:12pm PaulRobeson1920: I remember @Slugluv1313 you writing that your Mother would play Paul Robeson records when you were a kid! : )
	♥ 7:12pm slugluv1313: BAY CITY ROLLERS! and yeesh, i still have that issue of PUNK
	7:12pm Jett: So do I @slugluv1313
	♥ 7:13pm slugluv1313: @Jett -- kewl :)
	♥ 7:13pm PaulRobeson1920: : )
	♥ 7:13pm slugluv1313: and yes, my Mom adored Paul Robeson
	7:14pm ?: Gillian said that she had taken on a British accent as a child to make friends in London, but then adopted an American accent when she returned to the States in order to fit in with her peers and avoid being teased by her fellow classmates. ..
	7:14pm wendy del formaggio: I would like to announce I just made an origami box for my desk, to collect pencil shavings, and I am very proud of myself. It took me two tries.
	♥ 7:15pm Therese: 2021 is your year, @Wendy!
	♥ 7:15pm bbob: Space Manatee made me think there was a Young Marble Giants recording I'd missed!
	♥ 7:15pm RobinSays: I remember the Bay City Rollers-- '70s childhood, yes yes. I wasn't all that into them but I was impressed that they were such a phenomenon. I also remember them on a particularly entertaining episode of Kids Are People Too.
	♥ 7:15pm slugluv1313: early 1970s, not sure if Styx the band was around yet? i.pinimg.com...
	🎸 ♥ 7:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Very nice, Wendy. All the cool things a person can do with cheese!
	♥ 7:16pm Doobois: LOL, KFHP!
	7:17pm wendy del formaggio: @Therese: Thanks! It’s a good way to start. A folded-paper omen.
	7:18pm wendy del formaggio: @Ken: Haha! No, I used paper. But I’d be totally impressed if someone could do origami with sliced cheese.
	♥ 7:18pm HyperDose: @slugluv1313 The one that supposedly makes men go blind sounds like a bad time
	♥ 7:19pm chresti: Congratulations, Wendy! I haven't had the nerve to try origami.
	7:19pm Jett: The first Styx album was released in 1972. I can't believe I'm talking about this band.
	♥ 7:20pm PaulRobeson1920: Origami- fold fold fold fold fold fold, Ta Dah!
	7:20pm wendy del formaggio: Thanks, @Chresti! The box was not too difficult. And it’s cute and useful!
	🎸 ♥ 7:21pm Handy Haversack: Miss Eaves! Also, hi, Wendy!
	7:21pm wendy del formaggio: @Paul Robeson: Indeed! It’s one of those things one wants to show off. :-)
	7:22pm Jett: Don't know about origami, but I found this impressive: https://youtu.be/wwachznuChM
	♥ 7:23pm slugluv1313: @HyperDose -- oh yes, the 70s! i remember these ads, TV commercials -- i know i had one of the formulas, but do not recall which (and geez, what was i, 12 or 13?!?) 4.bp.blogspot.com...
	7:23pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Handy! Happy New Year!
	7:25pm Jett: I tend to favor New York based music.
	♥ 7:25pm slugluv1313: hiya Wendy! you are inspiring me to to learn Origami again! (i did a lot when i was a kid, but that was many many yers ago)
	7:27pm Bergey: got them shoutout smiles ;)
	♥ 7:27pm HyperDose: @slugluv1313 "Pick him out of a crowd and go after him" Is this an advertisement for cheetahs? haha
	7:28pm wendy del formaggio: @Slugluv! Hello! Have fun with the origami. Let us know how it goes.
	7:28pm Jett: What's become of the baby?
	♥ 7:28pm northguineahills: Happy New Sears everyone! (wait, I'm doing wrong, ain't I?)
	7:31pm Jett: Odyssey in spanish is spelled Odisea.
	7:31pm Bergey: Hey everybody and Therese
	♥ 7:32pm Therese: Hi Bergey!
	7:35pm manana: odissea is a real 'wow' song-thanks for that one
	♥ 7:36pm Franco Twinkie: Therese, let's call it what it is - going back to bed. I did today, and I feel no shame. Naps are for week enders, I'm a full on bed addict.
	♥ 7:38pm Therese: There's science behind it, @Franco! www.npr.org...
	♥ 7:39pm WR: that Nina Simone tune is best New Year song for me now.
	7:40pm Jett: sounds more like a live version of "Life During Wartime."
	♥ 7:42pm RobinSays: @Jett -- Maybe from the Stop Making Sense Soundtrack?
	♥ 7:42pm Franco Twinkie: True enough Therese, NPR approved. But I like to do it because I AM LAZY and it feels good!
	7:43pm Polly Onymous: Byrne is agenius. all the vids from this era are worth watching
	🎸 ♥ 7:43pm steveo: LET'S GO GEORGIA
	🎸 ♥ 7:45pm Handy Haversack: Happy New Year, Wendy!
	♥ 7:49pm bbob: Elaine Stricth! My spirit animal!
	♥ 7:49pm bbob: *Stritch
	7:50pm wendy del formaggio: Elaine Stritch. ❤️
	7:50pm Jett: Loved Elaine Stitch in "Company" she's very talented.
	♥ 7:50pm slugluv1313: ELAINE!!! <3 <3 <3 thank you, Therese!
	♥ 7:50pm Therese: A national treasure, she was.
	7:51pm Jett: Stritch**
	7:51pm Jett: Correctatype changed her name.

	🎸 ♥ 6:03pm B R M: Fun story: the first big show I ever got to choose to see was R.E.M. in Detroit, and Camper Van Beethoven opened up. My step dad did not like them, so he went to use the bathroom. I did not see him until the end of the full show. I asked him where he was, and he said "everyone assumed I was an usher, so I just started seating people. I had fun."
	♥ 6:03pm chresti: Hi Therese and Carol and company! Happy New Year!
	🎸 ♥ 6:04pm K8: Yay Sunday! Yay Therese! Yay Miss Hannigan and Follies, and whew! This is a lot of yay-ing...

	6:07pm Jett: Happy New Year @Therese Great to hear you tonight. Sad about Gerry Marsden 's death. I know your show will cheer me up.
	🎸 ♥ 6:09pm K8: @ Wendy del formaggio...hey there, my friend! Hope 2021 is treating you well so far!
	♥ 6:09pm chresti: BRM- good thing you didn't have to ask someone on stage to page him.
	6:12pm wendy del formaggio: @K8! I’m doing ok. Nice to see you here. :-)
	6:13pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Hi Therese, thanks for keeping the vibes vibing
	♥ 6:13pm Roberto: I think I answered a phone call from Paul Gemignani once when I was a kid.
	♥ 6:13pm Therese: Was he calling on behalf of the Boss, @Roberto?
	♥ 6:14pm Roberto: He was calling for my dad I guess. My 'rents are in da biz.
	6:14pm ?: Hi Therese
	🎸 ♥ 6:15pm K8: Do you have a shirt you really love?
	🎸 ♥ 6:15pm K8: Donovan is so delightfully ridiculous...
	🎸 ♥ 6:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Therese and assembly! We survived the dreaded 2020! Happy new Year!
	♥ 6:18pm chresti: I don't know of any shirts that I love, like, yes.
	♥ 6:18pm efd: Good evening Therese and therest!
	♥ 6:18pm Therese: @Roberto, ah, I see. And by the biz, you mean the industry.
	♥ 6:19pm Therese: Hey, @KenFHP and @EFD!
	♥ 6:21pm Therese: And hello @Wendy and Jett and Feff Cacho and Dave!
	♥ 6:22pm Roberto: Ja, der industrie. You know how in the '70s, when someone called your house, you didn't know who it was in advance of answering? So you took a chance and answered. Then you took a hand-written message when it wasn't for you.
	♥ 6:26pm northguineahills: Loaf, saw them many times in HS....

	♥ 6:29pm HyperDose: Only head shop in Jersey I've been to is Outta Control smoke shop in Keyport. Nice little place.

	♥ 6:30pm chresti: Haha
	♥ 6:30pm WR: i wondered which business Paul Gemignani was in, Wikipedia tells me he took over as music as music director for Sondheim on Follies and was pretty much the music director for all Sondheim musicals and many many other musicals as well.
	6:31pm Doug in JC: Oh man, Rockaway Mall
	♥ 6:31pm Therese: @medson and @HyperDose- it was called A Head of our Tyme.
	♥ 6:31pm Roberto: Yeah, my dad worked with Sondheim et al in the '70s, so I'm guessing that's how he knew Paul G.
	6:31pm Doug in JC: @Hyperdose What was the punk store in Keyport?
	♥ 6:32pm Therese: The Rockaway Mall was the only mall, @Doug.
	♥ 6:32pm chresti: I have this Palo Santo essential oil that's nice.
	♥ 6:33pm Franco Twinkie: You're lucky Therese, patchouli oil was still illegal when I was in high school.
	6:34pm Jett: @Therese I'm sure you had a nice scent back then. It's always nice to reminisce about high school days. I was talking with old friend about high school this week. It's funny, this guy is a bit older than me and we found out that we both attended the same high school. The year after he graduated, I started there.
	♥ 6:34pm Scott67: Week long wear is a normal thing for me Therese. Only people who pong change daily 😉
	♥ 6:35pm HyperDose: @Doug No idea, sorry. A friend and I looked Outta Control up online and made the pilgrimage. Only place in Keyport I've ever been. That friend and the piece I bought are no longer around, but I cherish the memories.
	6:35pm Doug in JC: @therese Remember when there would be 50 kids hanging out at the back entrance? I don't think they do that anymore
	♥ 6:36pm chresti: I had strawberry oil when I was a kid, I got pretty repulsed by it after a while.
	♥ 6:36pm Therese: @Doug- did you prefer the inner or outer movie theaters?
	♥ 6:36pm adamdoesit: Happy new year, Therese!
	🎸 ♥ 6:37pm Handy Haversack: Hello, Therese and Sunday Spectaculars! Sorry I'm late! Happy New Year to those I haven't seen yet (heck, even some of those I have)!
	6:38pm Doug in JC: @therese Tough call! Maybe outer. Things were a lot more lawless over there, plus there was chinese food
	♥ 6:38pm Franco Twinkie: Handy, I'll bet you liked to oil up in High school.
	6:38pm Jason: @theresa I used to go to the same dead shop in Newton when I was in high school (High Point) to get my little vials of patchouli oil! You brought back some memories. Listening from Ottawa.
	♥ 6:38pm HyperDose: @chresti Saw strawberry scented shampoo at the store as a kid and thought it sounded cool....got eaten alive by bugs that summer. Still love strawberries!
	6:39pm Doug in JC: @Handy @K8 Happy new year!
	♥ 6:40pm Scott67: Chresti, fake strawberry scent is an instant nausea inducer for me.
	6:40pm NikiA: Hi Handy et al. Therese, great show. love it.
	♥ 6:40pm Therese: Happy new year, Scott67, Handy, Franco, Adam and Jason!
	♥ 6:40pm northguineahills: I had a dream where I found a comp called, "Loud Women score 10s! Vol 5". It had a pic of the Slits on the cover.....(I woke before I could listen to it).
	♥ 6:41pm Scott67: & a Happier New one to you too Therese. Much, much happier! ♡
	♥ 6:42pm chresti: G'day Scott67, cheers!
	🎸 ♥ 6:42pm K8: @ Doug...Hiiii! Happy 2021!
	🎸 ♥ 6:42pm Handy Haversack: Happy New Year, Doug! Scott, HyperDose, Franco, NikiA, ngh, chresti, hi! That Archers of Loaf was a blast from the past. I recognized it only from having seen them live a looooong time ago, but several times. A friend in college was super into them -- and even more into one Archer specifically. We saw them a few times in NYC. Franco, I don't think I could afford oils? At any rate, I never had any. I had enough trouble staying in Dorals and other off-brand cigarettes!
	♥ 6:43pm Scott67: Cheers chresti! 😎
	♥ 6:43pm Therese: Hello, NikiA, thanks for checking in! @NorthGuineaHills- that sounds like a great comp!
	♥ 6:43pm Scott67: Hey Handy!
	🎸 ♥ 6:44pm Handy Haversack: Yes!
	♥ 6:44pm Scott67: Cured my morning Therese, thanks!
	♥ 6:44pm Therese: Oh, and an update for those who were concerned- the Second Street Bakery's oven is fixed and they are open again!
	♥ 6:45pm chresti: Handy-Kents.
	6:45pm Doug in JC: @Therese PHEWWWW. That sounded like one of those things that could snowball for a small business
	6:47pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: How YOUNG the Cure sounded there
	🎸 ♥ 6:47pm steveo: Did anyone else do a little triplet step while dancing to boys don't cry?
	♥ 6:48pm chresti: Yes, steveo, I was stepping.
	🎸 ♥ 6:48pm Handy Haversack: OK, Therese, that news means that we'll be coming back to JC ASAP with more treats. I was driving myself crazy looking at their menu.
	🎸 ♥ 6:48pm steveo: 👍👍👍
	6:51pm Doug in JC: Handy, plan some lunch trip and let me know
	♥ 6:51pm chresti: Handy, Taste me, taste me, come on taste me. Take a puff and let me do my stuff!, popped into my head at the mention of Dorals.
	🎸 ♥ 6:51pm Handy Haversack: Will do, Doug!
	♥ 6:52pm chresti: Great set, Therese!
	6:52pm Jett: I love The Zombies, legendary band!
	♥ 6:52pm mariano: Happy 2021, Therese and everyone!
	6:53pm Frege's Nightmare: the old and the new and the eternal!!
	♥ 6:54pm chresti: Zombies, man.
	6:55pm Listener Robert: Yeah, it's not even Orthodox Christmas yet, so it couldn't be 2021 Julian.
	7:02pm Jett: I'm really enjoying your commentaries tonight @Therese
	♥ 7:02pm slugluv1313: Good Evening and Happy New Year!!! Therese, Skeletons, Everyone! WOW thanks so much for "I'm Still Here" -- not familiar with that amazing Carol Burnett version! -- but that song has been popping up, like this recurring theme past couple of weeks :) (isn't there a story about how Elaine Stritch stated that no-one under the age of 80 has any business singing that -- ?)
	♥ 7:03pm PaulRobeson1920: Happy 2021, Therese and everyone! Hoooray!
	♥ 7:04pm Therese: @slugluv1313- you might be psychic, stay tuned!
	♥ 7:06pm chresti: I think slugluv is psychic.
	♥ 7:06pm slugluv1313: awww man, i remember strawberry oil, patchouli, jasmine, etc. . . . does anybody remember Styx? "spell spinning spray," etc.
	7:06pm The Mole: Re: Jillian Anderson's affected accent, Wikipedia sex, "Born in Chicago, Anderson grew up in London and Grand Rapids, Michigan." Apparently she was mercilessly teased about her accent in Grammar School in England. or something.
	7:07pm The Mole: *sex, obvs
	7:08pm The Mole: f'n autocorrect!! SEZ!!!
	7:09pm Jett: I remember a entertainingly crappy rock band called Styx.
	♥ 7:10pm efd: proud to say I ID'd this BCR song even before the bass came in!
	7:11pm Jett: I remember The Bay City Rollers were featured on Punk Magazine, great article back in the seventies.
	♥ 7:11pm Therese: I knew you would, @efd!
	7:11pm ?: Gillian's family stayed in the north London neighborhood of Crouch End until she was 11 years old, at which point her family returned to the United States and settled in Grand Rapids, Mich. But the Anderson family kept their apartment in London, and they traveled across the ocean every year so that she, along with her sister Zoe and brother Aaron, could spend her summers there.
	♥ 7:11pm chresti: Haha Mole.
	♥ 7:12pm PaulRobeson1920: I remember @Slugluv1313 you writing that your Mother would play Paul Robeson records when you were a kid! : )
	♥ 7:12pm slugluv1313: BAY CITY ROLLERS! and yeesh, i still have that issue of PUNK
	7:12pm Jett: So do I @slugluv1313
	♥ 7:13pm slugluv1313: @Jett -- kewl :)
	♥ 7:13pm PaulRobeson1920: : )
	♥ 7:13pm slugluv1313: and yes, my Mom adored Paul Robeson
	7:14pm ?: Gillian said that she had taken on a British accent as a child to make friends in London, but then adopted an American accent when she returned to the States in order to fit in with her peers and avoid being teased by her fellow classmates. ..
	7:14pm wendy del formaggio: I would like to announce I just made an origami box for my desk, to collect pencil shavings, and I am very proud of myself. It took me two tries.
	♥ 7:15pm Therese: 2021 is your year, @Wendy!
	♥ 7:15pm bbob: Space Manatee made me think there was a Young Marble Giants recording I'd missed!
	♥ 7:15pm RobinSays: I remember the Bay City Rollers-- '70s childhood, yes yes. I wasn't all that into them but I was impressed that they were such a phenomenon. I also remember them on a particularly entertaining episode of Kids Are People Too.
	♥ 7:15pm slugluv1313: early 1970s, not sure if Styx the band was around yet? i.pinimg.com...
	🎸 ♥ 7:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Very nice, Wendy. All the cool things a person can do with cheese!
	♥ 7:16pm Doobois: LOL, KFHP!
	7:17pm wendy del formaggio: @Therese: Thanks! It’s a good way to start. A folded-paper omen.
	7:18pm wendy del formaggio: @Ken: Haha! No, I used paper. But I’d be totally impressed if someone could do origami with sliced cheese.
	♥ 7:18pm HyperDose: @slugluv1313 The one that supposedly makes men go blind sounds like a bad time
	♥ 7:19pm chresti: Congratulations, Wendy! I haven't had the nerve to try origami.
	7:19pm Jett: The first Styx album was released in 1972. I can't believe I'm talking about this band.
	♥ 7:20pm PaulRobeson1920: Origami- fold fold fold fold fold fold, Ta Dah!
	7:20pm wendy del formaggio: Thanks, @Chresti! The box was not too difficult. And it’s cute and useful!
	🎸 ♥ 7:21pm Handy Haversack: Miss Eaves! Also, hi, Wendy!
	7:21pm wendy del formaggio: @Paul Robeson: Indeed! It’s one of those things one wants to show off. :-)
	7:22pm Jett: Don't know about origami, but I found this impressive: https://youtu.be/wwachznuChM
	♥ 7:23pm slugluv1313: @HyperDose -- oh yes, the 70s! i remember these ads, TV commercials -- i know i had one of the formulas, but do not recall which (and geez, what was i, 12 or 13?!?) 4.bp.blogspot.com...
	7:23pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Handy! Happy New Year!
	7:25pm Jett: I tend to favor New York based music.
	♥ 7:25pm slugluv1313: hiya Wendy! you are inspiring me to to learn Origami again! (i did a lot when i was a kid, but that was many many yers ago)
	7:27pm Bergey: got them shoutout smiles ;)
	♥ 7:27pm HyperDose: @slugluv1313 "Pick him out of a crowd and go after him" Is this an advertisement for cheetahs? haha
	7:28pm wendy del formaggio: @Slugluv! Hello! Have fun with the origami. Let us know how it goes.
	7:28pm Jett: What's become of the baby?
	♥ 7:28pm northguineahills: Happy New Sears everyone! (wait, I'm doing wrong, ain't I?)
	7:31pm Jett: Odyssey in spanish is spelled Odisea.
	7:31pm Bergey: Hey everybody and Therese
	♥ 7:32pm Therese: Hi Bergey!
	7:35pm manana: odissea is a real 'wow' song-thanks for that one
	♥ 7:36pm Franco Twinkie: Therese, let's call it what it is - going back to bed. I did today, and I feel no shame. Naps are for week enders, I'm a full on bed addict.
	♥ 7:38pm Therese: There's science behind it, @Franco! www.npr.org...
	♥ 7:39pm WR: that Nina Simone tune is best New Year song for me now.
	7:40pm Jett: sounds more like a live version of "Life During Wartime."
	♥ 7:42pm RobinSays: @Jett -- Maybe from the Stop Making Sense Soundtrack?
	♥ 7:42pm Franco Twinkie: True enough Therese, NPR approved. But I like to do it because I AM LAZY and it feels good!
	7:43pm Polly Onymous: Byrne is agenius. all the vids from this era are worth watching
