Which reminds me: I'm not sure if I'm damaging the psyche of my 8-month-old
daughter or broadening her musical horizons, but her bedtime music for the
last several days has been "Stay Awake: Interpretations of Vintage Disney
Films." It's one of those albums I hadn't listened to in years, but I broke
it out for her, and, man, it's even better than I remembered it. The
Replacements doing "Cruella DeVille," Sinead O'Connor singing "Someday My
Prince Will Come" over a plucked acoustic guitar, Bonnie Raitt and Was (Not
Was) doing a sweet, soulful version of "Baby Mine," and a version of the
closing theme to "The Mickey Mouse Club" by Aaron Neville which...and this I
swear...will someday close a SOTT entry of mine.
Latah,
