Both of mine are from the same band and album:

"If happiness is warm, I'll take the fur." -- from "Rifle Called Goodbye" by The Minus 5

"I had six White Russians tonight, and two of them were people" -- from "Out There on the Maroon" by The Minus 5

I like that line from Willie Nile's "Cell Phones Ringing (in the Pockets of the Dead)":

The Ayatollah swears he is not a pedophile.

Jury is still out. I thought Down with Wilco was extremely boring after 5 listens or so.

After one listen, I like it better than DwW FWIW.

Who's singing lead vocals on track 6 btw? Sounds extremely familiar.

Colin Meloy of The Decemberists. It's hard to tell it's him, because he's not singing about pirates moonlighting as chimney sweeps.

Lead lyric on the first song from Eef Barzelay's album:
"That was my ass you saw bouncin' next to Ludacris."

Also in same song:
"All those hoochie skanks ain't gotten shit on me/ And one of Nelly's bodyguards he totally agreed"

It's actually from last year but I like the opening lines of a King Creosote track

"You're growing old, you're growing tits..."

Nah, I'm a softie most of the time. I get choked up when I see puppies.

Hey, what did you think of the B&S show? I'm not sure I ever saw a review from you.
