Oops. Must have been having a Quaker Oatmeal moment.

I don’t really know much of Hall and Oates but I do remember a sketch on Saturday Night Live where they were on opposing sides of the election and it had Will Forte and was completely hilarious.

What about Devo?! Are we not men? We are Devo!

That reminds me I left out Guided By Voices` Sandbox.One of their REM-ish albums and their best `80s album

That reminded me of a girl and her hair and what you labeled it and it made me wet my pants.

In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels

This song was pretty much the driving force behind me including this album.

SG, of course I’ve heard it! Not as great as the original but definitely a high scorer on the like-ability scale.

I knew it! I knew you were going to say that! *does a happy dance like a prospector who just struck gold but then hides it so Swearengen doesn’t sick his henchmen on me and have me killed for it. Seth Bullock, use your sexy mustache to protect me!*

Oh no, how could I have neglected to mention Psychadelic Furs?! Talk Talk Talk and Forever Now are two of my favorite albums. I’m sorry for forgetting about you. Let me make it up to you by buying you all new hats.
