fingertrouble: every nun needs a synthi (holy synth)
2009-01-13 12:50 am

Sometimes a song stops you in your tracks

Where do we turn? Where do we go?
Riddle me this!

Who's the master mind of the puppet show?
Riddle me this!

Whom do we pay, who's the croupier?
Riddle me this!

Who's the one that sweeps all the stakes away?
Riddle me this!

Love a little, sing a little,
Play the game and win a little,
Only to lose.

Listen to the money jingle,
Isn't it a funny jingle,
Ending with blues!

What is the song? What is the rhyme?
Riddle me this!

Are there any odds on the wheel of time?
Riddle me this!

Written in 1932, during the depths of the Great Depression.

By the guy who wrote Over the Rainbow (Yip Harburg) - probably never heard of that tune, no-one has ;-)

Stevie Sesame Superstition

OMG does it get any better than this? If could only watch one clip this day, week, hour, ever - it HAS TO BE THIS.



I mean Stevie Wonder doing Superstition on Sesame Street? And as a full band, live, dropping references to Sesame Street as he goes in an amazing 6 minute jam, and in the end he pretty much invents the mashup.

I love the little girl going crazy dancing...

Srsly Stevie, I am not worthy. I was doing the I'm Not Worthy dance at the end of this video. Shockingly good. And what YouTube should be for!

Anyone know what episode/year this was?

Writer's Block: Tricky Questions

[Error: unknown template qotd]

My first response is to avoid them at every opportunity. Especially bosses or non-familial people.
I actually learned NOT to do the 'Can we talk?' intro with my partner, he gets upset at that point even if it's minor...so I tend to drop stuff in casually in the conversation. It works FAR better, believe me.
