I'm actually one of the few people who likes much of Yoko's work. However, Claire and I were watching a documentary about John and Yoko in the 70s, and after listening to him talk for about half an hour, I started to sympathize with Mark David Chapman.Rufushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762279210783841414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10166090.post-30246252051736563142007-12-27T01:00:00.000-08:002007-12-27T01:00:00.000-08:00I forgot all about that Kinks song, that's one of...I forgot all about that Kinks song, that's one of the great ones. Keith Richards did a sort of half way decent version of Run, Run, Rudolph, and probably forgot all about doing it by the next day. <BR/><BR/>That little Elvis scenario you mentioned would be all right, as long as an old Robert Goulet clip don't come on the tube. Every time he saw Goulet on tv he would shoot his set.<BR/><BR/>And damn, you know something? You're right, John really was a sanctimonious bastard, wasn't he?SecondComingOfBasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03336586430250490679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10166090.post-77273662879097852002007-12-23T16:22:00.000-08:002007-12-23T16:22:00.000-08:00It's very much alove/hate relationship.

I love all of the kitsch surrounding the holiday, while not generally liking the stress of actually celebrating the holiday.Rufushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762279210783841414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10166090.post-85469601039357397922007-12-23T12:07:00.000-08:002007-12-23T12:07:00.000-08:00Enh.

I don't really know why I love Christmas pop songs so much- likely for the kitsch factor.Rufushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762279210783841414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10166090.post-26822667883374948812007-12-23T12:00:00.000-08:002007-12-23T12:00:00.000-08:00Ironically, Eartha Kitt's Santa Baby is the ONE ho...Ironically, Eartha Kitt's Santa Baby is the ONE holiday song that I actually like. Really, just one, singular. I f'ing hate Christmas music. I even had to turn off my two favorite internet radio stations because they just couldn't stop.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10593117152792976823noreply@blogger.com
