This must have been a British hit or something. It’s completely new to me and, frankly, it’s pretty damn terrible! I’ll stick with Mary Stone…

It was the Johnny which made me use this. It went with yesterday’s post. I would have used Mary Stone, but I totally forgot about her.

Gnu,
I have a file of teenage death songs of which there are far more than you might expect though this angel is still alive, just ignoring her.

Darlene’s not going anywhere — just everywhere. I follow her on Facebook and she’s always on the go doing shows all over the world. She’ll be in your neck of the woods July 5 and 6 at The Music Tent in North Truro, MA.

I didn’t even know there was a music tent in Truro.

Kat, if CBS has a lick of sense, they’ll make sure they get Darlene booked on the Stephen Colbert show that’s replacing Letterman. Which means I’ll watch his show at least once. I personally think she’d be a better match for Jimmy Fallon. He does some *amazing* things with his music guests.
