"Barry Manilow, Mr Rico! Millions of him!"

[gridlore]

On occasion, I will set aside my curmudgeonly ways and put iTunes on shuffle and risk hearing music I'm not familiar with.

I know, such bravery deserves a Silver Star at least.

But recently, Kirsten added everything Barry Manilow has ever done, including Gregorian chants, the little known Manilow/Johnny Rotten sessions, and a badly dubbed tape of Barry singing "The Itsy-Bitsy Spider" when he was three, to our library. So when I refreshed the iTunes shuffle list, I was shocked and terrified by what I saw.

Manilow. Everywhere! With grim determination, I began deleting him where ever he popped up. There! Between Crossroads and Hallowed Be Thy Name! Two more at the bottom of the screen! Aiiee!!

I really can't stand his music. So of course I married a Barry fanatic. It's a fair trade off, she can't stand Bob Dylan.

She's weird.

Barry Manilow and Johnny "Oh my god my teeth are green and rotten" Lydon did studio sessions together?

What, were they doing ad-hoc interpretations of unknown Papuan love chants?
