Thanks Susan – I don’t have a personal tie to ETBG like you do, but I like their sound, and this is probably the most cool-lounge edition of T-dome thus far.

I may just have permanent Neil-Young-in-the-head, but I’ve got to point out one of these songs shares its title with a Neil song, and another shares its title with the album on which that song appears. Supergenius, indeed.

Greg, Supergenius has a plan for you. Accept his plan and you will find peace.

I didn’t vote in this poll, well, because i forgot. But I would have voted for Frou Frou (and Everthing But The Girl still would have won).
