Musically, vocally and lyrically this was probably Elton & Bernie's most down and dirty song.
One of my very favorite of theirs musically, with Tower of Power on horns...and lyrically, well...it does go perfectly with this music...but Bernie's writing in the '70s covered the entire spectrum, and this time he really got down in the mud.
Better believe it I'm a stinker
Burnin' vermin stink

A mix of quiet pieces from computer games—my de facto 'muzak' when I want to read or do intellectual work. The Ether One soundtrack is amazing.
Btw...
Brian64: Good one...When I was a student at U of MD, my friends and I saw Stop Making Sense at the student union's movie theater. The two things I remember from it are Tina Wymouth singing on Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love" and David Byrne on "Once In a Lifetime". Wow it's been about 35 years, I'm surprised I pulled that much from the cluttered attic upstairs.
Lasttango...I really dig the heavy fuzz electronica vibe they have. Thanks for turning me on to them.
Currently listening to The Handsome Family.
Phenomenal, amazing, goth/Americana/folk band. Off the chain in the best possible way.
