The et cetera

Heard on the radio that Korn is going to do a cover of Pink Floyd's Another Brick in the Wall parts 1, 2, and 3 on their greatest hits CD later this year. Gave me a 'squee' moment, because even if they fsck it up, it'll be a Pink Floyd cover and I'll like it anyway. I mean *Pink Floyd*. Will always, always be a fangirl. They caught me in '91 during that upsurge in popularity when they did the Wall concert after the dismantling of the Berlin Wall, and I've been nuts on 'em ever since.

Was quite the coincidence that I then caught ABitW part 3 starting when I flipped past the classic rock station. Found my car's top volume again.

Gorgeous day out again--high of 68, somewhere around 59 now. Will be another day where it's hard to work, because I want to be out in it. Though, even if cataloging stuff is light, I have plenty to do with serials, gov.doc. maps, and the panel display I should have put up eleven days ago, but haven't even started to find bookcovers for.

Had the Bangles' version of Hazy Shade of Winter stuck in my head when I woke up. Weird. And for babbles' sake, the CDs I wish I had with me but naturally don't are: Matchbox 20's Mad Season, The Living Sea soundtrack (instrumentals and Sting music, including Mad About You, which I've been craving for two days now), Sarah McLachlan's Fumbling Towards Ecstacy, and Pink Floyd's The Wall. Somehow figures that I can have a 5 gig mp3 player, but what I want isn't on it.

And now I kinda wish I had my GW 4th OST, the vocals one, because I have a craving for Trowa's Ai no Ryuusei song. That bit where he sings 'lonely...' sticks in my head during some moods. 'Dakara...'

You shold listen to Scissor Sisters' cover of Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb, it's really good imo. So is the rest of the CD actually.

Wow, thanks tons for letting me know about that--hadn't heard of it. And Comfortably Numb is...probably the closest I can call to my favorite Floyd song, if I had to narrow it down (which'd be hard ^^; ) But I'll definitely look for it :D

I'll try to burn it later tonight for you, since I have the CD.

wow, seriously? that's really awesome of you--i don't mean to make you go to the effort, but that's just cool. :) I wonder if I'd have anything I could do for you in trade *scratches head, ponders* But nifty... :)

I guess I'll have to wait until tonight to do it, since we don't have an enclosure for our puppy yet...so I haven't had a moment to do anything ^^;
