	12:04pm βrian: What is it with these offices, anyway?

	12:05pm chresti: And nary an ash dropped.
	12:06pm Krys O.: Now I'm thinking it's from The Artist....

	12:13pm Phillippe: Hey Monica! Howdy everyone!
	12:15pm Handy Haversack: Ahhhhh, Dreamboat Annie!
	12:15pm still b/p: For a moment at the start of the Boz track, I thought it might be Lonnie Holley stepping into a more commercial production zone.
	12:15pm Monica: hey, phillippe and still b/p!
	12:16pm adampsyche: hi monica i'm v happy that you're on the radio today
	12:16pm Herb Stevens: The 52Hz whale could be the mascot for the radio show I do with a friend. There are certain similarities.
	12:16pm foreign_listener_k: A perfect Monica curveball
	12:16pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hello Monica! This is sounding great!
	12:17pm PMD: Can you dial a rotary phone with really long fingernails?
	12:18pm Monica: thank you, adampsyche, foreighn_listener_k, pmd, and mike from brooklyn!
	12:18pm βrian: And why is he wearing a garrison cap?
	12:18pm Krys O.: @PMD: One would use a pencil to dial in those instances.
	12:19pm HyperDose: Jammerrrrrrs!
	12:19pm Emily: I imagine, Monica, if you sang, your voice would be like Ann Wilson.
	12:21pm Kannetana ki te Raki: I'm a listening, lyrics noticing, now. Monica + kannetana
	12:21pm Monica: grazi, hyperdose! i wish, emily:) welcome, Kannetana!
	12:21pm Michael 98145: crafting - didyouknowfacts.com...
	12:21pm Krys O.: @chresti & @Brian: I missed seeing him. So much detail. Were their disco balls in the Art Deco era?
	12:23pm βrian: Hah. en.wikipedia.org...
	12:23pm PMD: @Krys, do people ever use their toes?
	12:24pm Michael 98145: I actually remember dialing i.pinimg.com...
	12:24pm Krys O.: @Brian: Thank you! Sorry for the typo. I'm all discombobulated back at work after the holiday weekend.
	12:24pm Herb Stevens: I'm into this groover.
	12:26pm Carmichael: In the white room, With white curtains, dialing numbers ... 🎶
	12:28pm PMD: @Michael 98145 Neat!
	12:29pm Krys O.: Okay, I right-clicked on the gif and got my answer. Nice one, Monica!
	12:31pm N'Lo: fun fact - the solid ball on the end of the 4-color Bic was for rotary dialing, and I suspect punching #s into calculators as well. It was changed over to lanyard compatible later on.
	12:32pm Jeff Moore: Hey, Diva! Great to hear you on these airwaves where you belong!
	12:33pm Krys O.: N'Lo, that is fascinating. Never knew that.
	12:34pm Krys O.: @PMD: Sure, I guess they would if they could.
	12:35pm Kannetana ki te Raki: Listen!
	12:37pm Morgan from Philly: it’s been a bad week for the ocean too. hi Monica, really good to hear you
	12:37pm Woo: That first Boz Scaggs LP with Loan Me a Dime. Boz should get more love.

	12:40pm Monica: yo, carmichael! Hi n'lo, Jeff Moore, Morgan f/Philly! woo,- yes, loan me a dime is great.
	12:40pm Jason from Houston: Good greeting, folks.
	12:41pm N'Lo: @Krys O & pen nerds: And I just noted they released a 2020 anniversary version, 3 color + .7mm pencil! Ordering!
	12:42pm Monica: howdy, jason!
	12:43pm ryansterlingvirtue: Outstanding song.
	12:44pm Monica: indeed, ryansterlingvirtue:)
	12:47pm Gaylord Fields: It's a farkakte world out there, but all is right and good these three hours. Luv U and all you do, Mo!
	12:47pm Carmichael: A friend confided in me that his great uncle invented the rolling ball writing pen. His last name bears that out.
	12:48pm Malcontent: Hooray! Monica is on the air!
	12:48pm Kannetana ki te Raki: Three words, 3 simple words.
	12:49pm West Coast Ken: Silk Degrees easily makes my favorite top five albums of all time list.
	12:49pm Sandy Cornerstone: I like the way you think DJ Monica. Hey there Carmichael.
	12:49pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Speaking of Roxy Music, I've been reading Eno's diary "A Year with Swollen Appendices." Really interesting stuff.
	12:50pm still b/p: Bryan Ferry could be outside the dialer's window in a dinner jacket and all would seem normal.
	12:50pm Josh_Josh_Josh: Monica I'm LOVING the show today, thank you for this great mix
	12:50pm Monica: GAYLORD:) mwah and xxoo m'dear!....hello, malcontent and West Coast Ken and Sandy and WoodsOfNH!!

	12:56pm Sarah J.: Monica, I am such a huge fan of yours. So happy I happen to be catching a fill-in show! Loving the Crow Waltz - I first heard it through you and it's become a go-to song for me when I need to slow down. Thanks for being you!
	12:57pm Herb Stevens: This is beautiful. I think I've heard you play a cut from this album before Monica.
	12:57pm Handy Haversack: Carmichael, a distinct lack of chance meetings with the president of Argentina has been holding me back from success for years!
	12:57pm N'Lo: @carmichael nice history there!
	12:58pm Josh_Josh_Josh: holy crap Monica, I'm a DJ on MakerParkRadio out of Staten Island and I use your current track, the Frankie Reyes bolero, as my background music while I'm talking just about every week!
	12:59pm Josh_Josh_Josh: (in fact, my season finale show is tonight from 10-12 at makerparkradio.nyc!)
	12:59pm Jeff g. via app: Yay, Mo! It’s such a mood, your show.

	1:00pm Roberto: This sounds like my kitty!
	1:01pm Herb Stevens: My pooch is very perturbed by this Cheetah. She can't work out where it is.
	1:02pm Booz: Was sure that cheetah was Butter for a minute there
	1:03pm chresti: At first I thought the cheetah sound was a helicopter flying over Griffith Park.
	1:03pm Josh_Josh_Josh: @blee the whole album is great, called Boleros Valses y Mas
	1:05pm Catsilk: Checking IN Hey, Monica grrrrrlll...
	1:05pm blee: @Josh_Josh_Josh, great to know. I'll check it out. Stone's Throw puts out so much strong material. Also, pleased to meet you.
	1:06pm alan the painter: Which paart a Chicago? I was there '84 - '05 and drove a car covered in springs, created first in Andersonville, then Paark de Ro_er, and finally River North on Kinzie st.
	1:06pm waters7: spectacular velvet vision
	1:06pm Josh_Josh_Josh: you too! tune in tonight from 10-12 if you can on makerparkradio.nyc for my last show there before going on hiatus
	1:07pm Catsilk: yes, agreed, @waters7 ! wow
	1:07pm oks: Monica!!!!! <3
	1:08pm waters7: sounds a little like MGMT (their first hit)
	1:08pm blee: Right on!
	1:08pm Catsilk: oks!!!
	1:08pm Sandy Cornerstone: The sun has overtaken the shady spot of the local outdoor library bench. It's more persuasive than a cop..."Move along now, don't you have some other person to be?". Thanks for the show. Ciao
	1:10pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Not that I want to drive ears away from WFMU, but in the current issue of The Wire there's a piece on stations around the world. Kind of mind-blowing how much is out there.
	1:10pm Monica: Yo, Jeff g., blee, Roberto, Booz (hah), Catsilk, alan the painter (oak park and then all over the north side), waters7, and oks!
	1:10pm Sandy Cornerstone: @alan the "5-mile per hour" bumper had nuthin' on your spring loaded ride. :)
	1:12pm oks: Love You Catsilk
	1:13pm Jeffrey from west Florida: Oh Monica one is never to young to be a hippie. Or sadly to old to be a hipster. Love Love Loving the show ! Light a candle for Florida y’all. What Elsa could possibly go wrong ? Still trying to get the Sandy outa my sandals & my soul. Stay high & stay dry y’all. ☮️🌊💨
	1:13pm Yes: Hi Monica , sounding lovely
	1:13pm Phillippe: This Akkan is spectacular. Thank you for such a great show, Monica. Not sure if I have mentioned this in the past, but when I am trying to convert the musically brain-dead to FMU listeners, I always go to the Monica archives first. Your show seems to capture so much of the goodness of many types of programs on the station -- a nice capsule version of the station.
	1:14pm Booz: M = purring heart of FMU
	1:15pm Michael 98145: Yes, thoughts to Florida. We have folks in Tampa.
	1:16pm SeanG: Yo MO!
	1:18pm p/b: Hey Monica FMU miracles - light and love from way WAY too far from BKLYN 718 please say hello to my city for me
	1:19pm Luisa24: I love dance music in the early afternoon! Thank you!
	1:20pm Monica: hey there, SeanG! And Yes! And Jeff from west FL and Luisa24! thank you, phillippe and p/b:)
	1:21pm Catsilk: Magnifique!
	1:21pm waters7: Yer killin it, Mo!
	1:22pm alan the painter: Monica, you pass, did you see the Springcar or happen into the Springman Studio, reborn here in Philli. as the Springman Gallery!
	1:26pm βrian: Now, this is dance music.
	1:26pm queems: this song haunted me for the entirety of 2012
	1:27pm Andres: Hello! Song of the summer!! Or am I late on that? Still gold.
	1:27pm foreign_listener_k: No need to check this relief pitcher's sticky fingers - she is a master of the perfect curveball
	1:27pm sweir: Dancing out here in Milford PA! Thank you.
	1:27pm mndave: Me to my dog right now: but you're a GOOD GIRLLLL
	1:27pm TVP: I hate these word crimeees....
	1:28pm I k e: Still pretty uncomfortable lyrics at best….
	1:28pm Catsilk: TVP sentence diagrams, yo
	1:29pm Handy Haversack: Remember how the video revealed that some people had boobs and other people would use boobs to get people to watch their video? Barely two and a quarter centuries into the American experiment, and we were almost unready to survive the shock.
	1:29pm joshjoshjosh: Definitely uncomfortable lyrics. Blurred lines = ignoring consent boundaries? Really sketch
	1:30pm N'Lo: The song you love to hate but also love to dance to!
	1:30pm Michael 98145: your're far from plastic
	1:30pm still b/p: Troubling but not uncommon video style with women included only as mute accessories and undressed window dressing.
	👻 1:30pm captain beef fart: now for some Winger
	1:30pm Monica: ike, tvp, mndave, sweirqueems, Andres!!!
	1:30pm Dean from Old Bridge: wtf was that...
	1:31pm Woo: Throw in a little Chopsticks. Nice.
	1:32pm steveo: Thanks for the full Sedated 🙂
	1:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think the Jetson's theme used the same keyboards for their Chopsticks bit.
	1:33pm p/b: love this I do NOT want to be any more sedated but I hear this
	1:34pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I'm not a lyrics person either.
	1:34pm steveo: I think they main problem was "you know you want it" ick
	1:34pm SeanG: great fuckin' song!
	1:34pm Roberto: Speaking of sedate Ramones, I was surprised to see that both Johnny and Dee Dee are interred at the Hollywood Forever cemetery when I toured it a couple of weeks ago.
	1:34pm chresti: Yeah I could not decipher any lyric.
	1:35pm Scott Williams: Oooh, I get to join you in the studio, Mo? Extra treat! BRT...
	1:35pm People Like Us: hello!
	1:36pm Monica: SCOTTT!!! MY SAVIOR!!!!
	1:37pm Ken From Hyde Park: He'll Scottify that EAS right up!
	1:37pm I k e: I usually don’t pay attention to lyrics either but this time I finally noticed the bit mentioning some sort of Spanish fly type of thing from Jamaica or something like that? Yiiiiiiikes.
	1:37pm Monica: VIKKI/PLU in the house!!!
	1:38pm adampsyche: the photog who abused many women (one in the blurred lines video) opened up a shop in the catskills
	1:38pm Monica: hi, steveo!
	1:39pm steveo: Hi! Great to hear you today
	1:40pm blee: was that not "All of me?"
	1:40pm Woo: Not a single luxury
	1:40pm mndave: school age blaster
	1:40pm HyperDose: This is the new Baby Shark and I love it haha
	1:41pm βrian: I'm really disappointed that The Backyardigans is not an 80s thrash band.

	1:41pm pgalub: Hi Monica and everyone! Ahoy!
	1:42pm Handy Haversack: I am alerted!
	1:42pm waters7: Yellow Bird: always a fave!
	1:42pm queems: i loooooove the mills brothers
	1:43pm Carmichael: I am a lert.
	1:43pm Gaylord Fields: @blee: Both "Heartaches" and "All of Me" made their debut in 1931, so whatever beef those respective songwriters had with each other you can probably consider squashed.
	1:45pm Monica: Gaylord ftw dropping Tin Pan Alley Science:)
	1:45pm blee: @GAylor Fields: Thank you! That makes sense. I love how the older songs, the songwriters did not care about who did what or who sang which song. more of a free for all. I was not aware of the song or similar song named "Heartaches."
	1:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: There was a good trivia question on Stork's show on Sunday: "For $100, who is the composer of 'Swanee River'?"
	1:48pm SeanG: Stephen foster?
	1:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hint: It was not Ed Norton.
	1:52pm Krys O.: "Old Folks at Home" KenfromHP?
	1:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Monica @blee: Vo-doh-de-oh-doh!

	1:58pm Monica: rich the greeb - indeed, a WFMU staple if there is such a thing:) ask GAYLORD!.... kev - yup hippies rule:)
	1:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Janis is almost pre-hippie. & yet definitive hippie...
	1:58pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): the new hippie stuff isn't as good
	1:58pm foreign_listener_k: This is the good stuff, as a select few in the 70s remembered
	2:00pm Handy Haversack: Goodness!
	2:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& yet pointing to Glam, Metal & the 70s. Cause that's how it worked...
	2:00pm Gaylord Fields: @rich the greeb: Monica speaks 100% truth about the longstanding Shop Assistants love here.
	2:00pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Fantastic show Monica. Thanks
	2:01pm βrian: Some like the smell of cordite. Me, I prefer patchouli.
	2:01pm Monica: thank you, danny!

	2:05pm mitchella: Gladys Knight
	2:05pm Mr C: Shout out to Mr. Pop! Daddy G!
	2:05pm rich the greeb: And also everyone else that was mentioned
	2:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Great answers ! Lennon, Tim Buckley yup ...you aren't gonna like this - but Jim Morrison...
	2:06pm Jackie G: Perry Como had a smooth singing voice. But Jon Anderson is my go to voice.
	2:06pm DeemerDave: I can't decide if I want the voice of Geddy Lee or Thom Yorke.
	2:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Johnny Hartman...
	2:06pm rich the greeb: Here’s an odd one too… Paul westerberg
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking Kevn Kinney or early Shane MacGowan. Though, always and of course Sandy Denny.
	2:07pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): John Lurie is coming out with a memoir!

	2:08pm Handy Haversack: If I could sing like Hoboken Jack, I'd record a soupçon of vegetarian soup songs!
	2:08pm Jackie G: The most beautiful, angelic voice belongs to Emmy Lou Harris. Her voice makes me cry.
	2:09pm Tome: ,, agrees with kev whoeheartedly ... too
	2:09pm Carmichael: No one said Tom Waits ... 😮
	2:09pm Carmichael: I dunno, maybe Morrissey.
	2:09pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Tom Waits
	2:10pm mitchella: Laura Marling has an incredible voice...
	2:10pm Jackie G: Janis Joplin makes me cry too. For completely different reasons. Thom Yorke too.
	2:11pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Gladys Knight or Ronnie Spector
	2:11pm dreamyandseedy: Celia Humphris from Trees would be my 2nd choice
	2:12pm Tome: !<>!
	2:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I reckon if Art is @ all about making you feel things - Janis gets there faster than about anybody. Darlene Love might be in that category Stillwell CI...
	2:12pm Bob from poughkeepsie: l wish l could sing like Johnny Ray, Great show Monica!!!
	2:12pm Gaylord Fields: Mr C is in the house!!!
	2:12pm Monica: hi there, tome, Jackie G, kev, captain beef fart, pgalub, DeemerDave, mitchella, and vanya moscow!
	2:13pm Handy Haversack: Tom Waits would be up there for me, Carmichael! K8 says Billie Holiday, Rihanna, PJ Harvey, and Anohni. Then we decided a limit had to be maintained!
	2:13pm Monica: Mr C in the place to B - and G!
	2:14pm Little Danny: Wow, love "White Hop."

	2:18pm mitchella: Gil Scott Heron
	2:18pm Little Danny: This too is amazing.
	2:18pm rich the greeb: And in the female dude side, vashtun Bunyan, Dinah Washington, Etta James, Irma Thomas
	2:18pm Monica: Hi Little Danny and D Rok!
	2:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Matt Warwick maybe...
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: I'll add Blossom Dearie.
	2:19pm Stillwell Coney Islander: And Sassy Sarah Vaughn. LOVE her!
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: Having recently watched Summer of Soul, I'm in a Nina Simone state of mind.
	2:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Funny - I can burn out on DinahW but not Sarah. Hm.
	2:20pm Bob from poughkeepsie: l would also like to sing like Mel Torme

	2:21pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Harry Belafonte. What a voice!

	2:22pm Jackie G: Once played Jon Anderson for someone for their first time. He said, "She has a nice voice."
	2:22pm Monica: Hi Jeff Golick and Bob from Poughkeepsie!
	2:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Krys O @1:52 - Sorry, stepped away for a bit. Stork played an excerpt from the Honeymooners "The $99,000 Answer" episode.
	2:25pm Jeff Golick: 👋
	2:27pm Jackie G: Played (the great) Erika Wennerstrom of Heartless Bastards. Someone said,"He has a good voice."
	2:28pm Gaylord Fields: I'll play too, as this is an easy choice for me: I'd like to be able to sing like David Ruffin.
	2:29pm Carmichael: Same with Boy George. A friend liked Karma Chameleon until he found out it was a guy.
	2:29pm rich the greeb: Yesssss Gaylord! Did you watch summer of soul yet??
	2:29pm ncjay: Miz Monica! had to be out and about, but just got home in time to say hi! will catch the entire show 'pon the replay!
	2:30pm Monica: ncjay!
	2:31pm ncjay: always happy to hear your voice and your music
	2:31pm Gaylord Fields: @rich the greeb: I haven't watched it yet, because I promised to see it with a friend who's out of town till next week. But to say I cannot wait is a huge understatement.
	2:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & - if I could sing like Otis Redding I reckon that'd about have it covered.
	2:33pm rich the greeb: It’s really good @gaylord
	2:34pm Gaylord Fields: @Carmichael: So your friend blew right past George's "I'm a man without conviction" line? @rich: How could it not be?
	2:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Carmichael - try Jimmie Scott on him...
	2:37pm slugluv1313: hellooooo Monica! Everyone! thanks for these cool sounds, it is HOT out there!!! got home while you were playing "Persephone" -- totally stopping me in my tracks (at first i thought Allison Russell sounded like really early Linda Ronstadt?!?) -- then had to look up the lyrics upon hearing your description . . . WOW just WOW, so incredible (even if hitting just a liiiittle too close to home) -- gotta listen to more when i have the chance . . . and honestly, i have no idea who i would want to sing like -- but if i could write songs like "Persephone," THAT would be freaking awesome 😺😺😺
	2:38pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Guitar solo is son of guitar solo from "The Cover of the Rolling Stone"
	2:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yerknow Elvis was rather great - if not as original a Singer as we perhaps thot...
	2:38pm Carmichael: Apparently he's not a lyrics guy, Gaylord ...
	2:39pm Carmichael: Dr. Hook, my 1st concert EVAH!
	2:39pm Monica: hi slugluv1313 and ncjay!!!
	2:39pm ?: @RevRab Elvis was a thot
	2:39pm p/b: omg I am 13 again w dr hook here I am dribblin
	2:39pm Phillippe: Probably not a popular choice, but I always liked Ben Folds' voice. If I was of the other gender, I'd say Angel Olson, cuz I love her.
	2:40pm Jackie G: Dance With Me was a good song. (No, it wasn't)

	2:44pm Phillippe: Oooh, why didn't I say Elvis Costello? I'd like to change my choice to Elvis Costello. Forget I said anything else.
	2:44pm slugluv1313: Sylvia's Mother was a huge hit when i was a kid -- hah! maybe Nick Cave was listening too?!?
	2:44pm Monica: hello ifeelfatnsassy, misterpickles69, prudy, and ?
	2:47pm mitchella: Thanks monica, very enjoyable show X

	2:52pm mitchella: right at this moment I would choose to sing like Diana Ross to my mum on facetime, she's lost the ability to communicate verbally but I know I'd get a beautiful smile outta of her if I sang ;-O
	2:52pm Krys O.: Your gif inspired me to seek out watching Veronika Voss. Never saw it before.

	12:15pm Handy Haversack: Ahhhhh, Dreamboat Annie!
	12:15pm still b/p: For a moment at the start of the Boz track, I thought it might be Lonnie Holley stepping into a more commercial production zone.
	12:15pm Monica: hey, phillippe and still b/p!
	12:16pm adampsyche: hi monica i'm v happy that you're on the radio today
	12:16pm Herb Stevens: The 52Hz whale could be the mascot for the radio show I do with a friend. There are certain similarities.
	12:16pm foreign_listener_k: A perfect Monica curveball
	12:16pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hello Monica! This is sounding great!
	12:17pm PMD: Can you dial a rotary phone with really long fingernails?

	12:18pm βrian: And why is he wearing a garrison cap?
	12:18pm Krys O.: @PMD: One would use a pencil to dial in those instances.
	12:19pm HyperDose: Jammerrrrrrs!
	12:19pm Emily: I imagine, Monica, if you sang, your voice would be like Ann Wilson.
	12:21pm Kannetana ki te Raki: I'm a listening, lyrics noticing, now. Monica + kannetana

	12:23pm βrian: Hah. en.wikipedia.org...
	12:23pm PMD: @Krys, do people ever use their toes?
	12:24pm Michael 98145: I actually remember dialing i.pinimg.com...
	12:24pm Krys O.: @Brian: Thank you! Sorry for the typo. I'm all discombobulated back at work after the holiday weekend.

	12:26pm Carmichael: In the white room, With white curtains, dialing numbers ... 🎶
	12:28pm PMD: @Michael 98145 Neat!
	12:29pm Krys O.: Okay, I right-clicked on the gif and got my answer. Nice one, Monica!
	12:31pm N'Lo: fun fact - the solid ball on the end of the 4-color Bic was for rotary dialing, and I suspect punching #s into calculators as well. It was changed over to lanyard compatible later on.
	12:32pm Jeff Moore: Hey, Diva! Great to hear you on these airwaves where you belong!
	12:33pm Krys O.: N'Lo, that is fascinating. Never knew that.

	12:47pm Carmichael: A friend confided in me that his great uncle invented the rolling ball writing pen. His last name bears that out.

	12:48pm Kannetana ki te Raki: Three words, 3 simple words.
	12:49pm West Coast Ken: Silk Degrees easily makes my favorite top five albums of all time list.
	12:49pm Sandy Cornerstone: I like the way you think DJ Monica. Hey there Carmichael.
	12:49pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Speaking of Roxy Music, I've been reading Eno's diary "A Year with Swollen Appendices." Really interesting stuff.
	12:50pm still b/p: Bryan Ferry could be outside the dialer's window in a dinner jacket and all would seem normal.
	12:50pm Josh_Josh_Josh: Monica I'm LOVING the show today, thank you for this great mix

	12:57pm Herb Stevens: This is beautiful. I think I've heard you play a cut from this album before Monica.
	12:57pm Handy Haversack: Carmichael, a distinct lack of chance meetings with the president of Argentina has been holding me back from success for years!
	12:57pm N'Lo: @carmichael nice history there!
	12:58pm Josh_Josh_Josh: holy crap Monica, I'm a DJ on MakerParkRadio out of Staten Island and I use your current track, the Frankie Reyes bolero, as my background music while I'm talking just about every week!

	1:08pm blee: Right on!
	1:08pm Catsilk: oks!!!
	1:08pm Sandy Cornerstone: The sun has overtaken the shady spot of the local outdoor library bench. It's more persuasive than a cop..."Move along now, don't you have some other person to be?". Thanks for the show. Ciao
	1:10pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Not that I want to drive ears away from WFMU, but in the current issue of The Wire there's a piece on stations around the world. Kind of mind-blowing how much is out there.
	1:10pm Monica: Yo, Jeff g., blee, Roberto, Booz (hah), Catsilk, alan the painter (oak park and then all over the north side), waters7, and oks!

	1:12pm oks: Love You Catsilk
	1:13pm Jeffrey from west Florida: Oh Monica one is never to young to be a hippie. Or sadly to old to be a hipster. Love Love Loving the show ! Light a candle for Florida y’all. What Elsa could possibly go wrong ? Still trying to get the Sandy outa my sandals & my soul. Stay high & stay dry y’all. ☮️🌊💨
	1:13pm Yes: Hi Monica , sounding lovely
	1:13pm Phillippe: This Akkan is spectacular. Thank you for such a great show, Monica. Not sure if I have mentioned this in the past, but when I am trying to convert the musically brain-dead to FMU listeners, I always go to the Monica archives first. Your show seems to capture so much of the goodness of many types of programs on the station -- a nice capsule version of the station.
	1:14pm Booz: M = purring heart of FMU
	1:15pm Michael 98145: Yes, thoughts to Florida. We have folks in Tampa.

	1:27pm Andres: Hello! Song of the summer!! Or am I late on that? Still gold.
	1:27pm foreign_listener_k: No need to check this relief pitcher's sticky fingers - she is a master of the perfect curveball
	1:27pm sweir: Dancing out here in Milford PA! Thank you.
	1:27pm mndave: Me to my dog right now: but you're a GOOD GIRLLLL
	1:27pm TVP: I hate these word crimeees....
	1:28pm I k e: Still pretty uncomfortable lyrics at best….
	1:28pm Catsilk: TVP sentence diagrams, yo
	1:29pm Handy Haversack: Remember how the video revealed that some people had boobs and other people would use boobs to get people to watch their video? Barely two and a quarter centuries into the American experiment, and we were almost unready to survive the shock.
	1:29pm joshjoshjosh: Definitely uncomfortable lyrics. Blurred lines = ignoring consent boundaries? Really sketch
	1:30pm N'Lo: The song you love to hate but also love to dance to!
	1:30pm Michael 98145: your're far from plastic
	1:30pm still b/p: Troubling but not uncommon video style with women included only as mute accessories and undressed window dressing.
	👻 1:30pm captain beef fart: now for some Winger
	1:30pm Monica: ike, tvp, mndave, sweirqueems, Andres!!!

	1:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think the Jetson's theme used the same keyboards for their Chopsticks bit.
	1:33pm p/b: love this I do NOT want to be any more sedated but I hear this
	1:34pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I'm not a lyrics person either.
	1:34pm steveo: I think they main problem was "you know you want it" ick
	1:34pm SeanG: great fuckin' song!
	1:34pm Roberto: Speaking of sedate Ramones, I was surprised to see that both Johnny and Dee Dee are interred at the Hollywood Forever cemetery when I toured it a couple of weeks ago.
	1:34pm chresti: Yeah I could not decipher any lyric.
	1:35pm Scott Williams: Oooh, I get to join you in the studio, Mo? Extra treat! BRT...
	1:35pm People Like Us: hello!
	1:36pm Monica: SCOTTT!!! MY SAVIOR!!!!

	1:37pm I k e: I usually don’t pay attention to lyrics either but this time I finally noticed the bit mentioning some sort of Spanish fly type of thing from Jamaica or something like that? Yiiiiiiikes.
	1:37pm Monica: VIKKI/PLU in the house!!!
	1:38pm adampsyche: the photog who abused many women (one in the blurred lines video) opened up a shop in the catskills

	1:43pm Carmichael: I am a lert.
	1:43pm Gaylord Fields: @blee: Both "Heartaches" and "All of Me" made their debut in 1931, so whatever beef those respective songwriters had with each other you can probably consider squashed.
	1:45pm Monica: Gaylord ftw dropping Tin Pan Alley Science:)
	1:45pm blee: @GAylor Fields: Thank you! That makes sense. I love how the older songs, the songwriters did not care about who did what or who sang which song. more of a free for all. I was not aware of the song or similar song named "Heartaches."
	1:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: There was a good trivia question on Stork's show on Sunday: "For $100, who is the composer of 'Swanee River'?"
	1:48pm SeanG: Stephen foster?
	1:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hint: It was not Ed Norton.
	1:52pm Krys O.: "Old Folks at Home" KenfromHP?

	1:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Janis is almost pre-hippie. & yet definitive hippie...
	1:58pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): the new hippie stuff isn't as good
	1:58pm foreign_listener_k: This is the good stuff, as a select few in the 70s remembered
	2:00pm Handy Haversack: Goodness!
	2:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& yet pointing to Glam, Metal & the 70s. Cause that's how it worked...

	2:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Great answers ! Lennon, Tim Buckley yup ...you aren't gonna like this - but Jim Morrison...
	2:06pm Jackie G: Perry Como had a smooth singing voice. But Jon Anderson is my go to voice.
	2:06pm DeemerDave: I can't decide if I want the voice of Geddy Lee or Thom Yorke.
	2:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Johnny Hartman...
	2:06pm rich the greeb: Here’s an odd one too… Paul westerberg
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking Kevn Kinney or early Shane MacGowan. Though, always and of course Sandy Denny.

	2:09pm Tome: ,, agrees with kev whoeheartedly ... too
	2:09pm Carmichael: No one said Tom Waits ... 😮
	2:09pm Carmichael: I dunno, maybe Morrissey.
	2:09pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Tom Waits
	2:10pm mitchella: Laura Marling has an incredible voice...
	2:10pm Jackie G: Janis Joplin makes me cry too. For completely different reasons. Thom Yorke too.
	2:11pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Gladys Knight or Ronnie Spector
	2:11pm dreamyandseedy: Celia Humphris from Trees would be my 2nd choice
	2:12pm Tome: !<>!
	2:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I reckon if Art is @ all about making you feel things - Janis gets there faster than about anybody. Darlene Love might be in that category Stillwell CI...
	2:12pm Bob from poughkeepsie: l wish l could sing like Johnny Ray, Great show Monica!!!
	2:12pm Gaylord Fields: Mr C is in the house!!!
	2:12pm Monica: hi there, tome, Jackie G, kev, captain beef fart, pgalub, DeemerDave, mitchella, and vanya moscow!
	2:13pm Handy Haversack: Tom Waits would be up there for me, Carmichael! K8 says Billie Holiday, Rihanna, PJ Harvey, and Anohni. Then we decided a limit had to be maintained!

	2:14pm Little Danny: Wow, love "White Hop."

	2:18pm rich the greeb: And in the female dude side, vashtun Bunyan, Dinah Washington, Etta James, Irma Thomas
	2:18pm Monica: Hi Little Danny and D Rok!
	2:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Matt Warwick maybe...
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: I'll add Blossom Dearie.
	2:19pm Stillwell Coney Islander: And Sassy Sarah Vaughn. LOVE her!
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: Having recently watched Summer of Soul, I'm in a Nina Simone state of mind.

	2:22pm Monica: Hi Jeff Golick and Bob from Poughkeepsie!
	2:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Krys O @1:52 - Sorry, stepped away for a bit. Stork played an excerpt from the Honeymooners "The $99,000 Answer" episode.
	2:25pm Jeff Golick: 👋
	2:27pm Jackie G: Played (the great) Erika Wennerstrom of Heartless Bastards. Someone said,"He has a good voice."
	2:28pm Gaylord Fields: I'll play too, as this is an easy choice for me: I'd like to be able to sing like David Ruffin.
	2:29pm Carmichael: Same with Boy George. A friend liked Karma Chameleon until he found out it was a guy.
	2:29pm rich the greeb: Yesssss Gaylord! Did you watch summer of soul yet??
	2:29pm ncjay: Miz Monica! had to be out and about, but just got home in time to say hi! will catch the entire show 'pon the replay!
	2:30pm Monica: ncjay!
	2:31pm ncjay: always happy to hear your voice and your music
	2:31pm Gaylord Fields: @rich the greeb: I haven't watched it yet, because I promised to see it with a friend who's out of town till next week. But to say I cannot wait is a huge understatement.
	2:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & - if I could sing like Otis Redding I reckon that'd about have it covered.
	2:33pm rich the greeb: It’s really good @gaylord
	2:34pm Gaylord Fields: @Carmichael: So your friend blew right past George's "I'm a man without conviction" line? @rich: How could it not be?
	2:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Carmichael - try Jimmie Scott on him...
	2:37pm slugluv1313: hellooooo Monica! Everyone! thanks for these cool sounds, it is HOT out there!!! got home while you were playing "Persephone" -- totally stopping me in my tracks (at first i thought Allison Russell sounded like really early Linda Ronstadt?!?) -- then had to look up the lyrics upon hearing your description . . . WOW just WOW, so incredible (even if hitting just a liiiittle too close to home) -- gotta listen to more when i have the chance . . . and honestly, i have no idea who i would want to sing like -- but if i could write songs like "Persephone," THAT would be freaking awesome 😺😺😺
	2:38pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Guitar solo is son of guitar solo from "The Cover of the Rolling Stone"
	2:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yerknow Elvis was rather great - if not as original a Singer as we perhaps thot...
	2:38pm Carmichael: Apparently he's not a lyrics guy, Gaylord ...
	2:39pm Carmichael: Dr. Hook, my 1st concert EVAH!
	2:39pm Monica: hi slugluv1313 and ncjay!!!
	2:39pm ?: @RevRab Elvis was a thot
	2:39pm p/b: omg I am 13 again w dr hook here I am dribblin
	2:39pm Phillippe: Probably not a popular choice, but I always liked Ben Folds' voice. If I was of the other gender, I'd say Angel Olson, cuz I love her.
	2:40pm Jackie G: Dance With Me was a good song. (No, it wasn't)
	2:40pm N'Lo: Shocked, but feeling like Nick Cave takes a lot from Dr. Hook!
	2:42pm prudy: I believe this is from summer of 1972...
	2:42pm mitchella: Rob Banks ... gotta luv a falsetto
	2:42pm rich the greeb: @phillipe : I feel you on bed folds. The ben folks fine were fantastic. Great songwriting and punk jazz energy
	2:42pm misterpickles69: That was better than I thought it was gonna be
	2:43pm ifeelfatnsassy: Wild. That song was written by Shel Silverstein and was autobiographical.
	2:43pm Jackie G: Cool times with Monica on this hot day. Thank you, Monica. Come back soon. If the spirit moves you.
	2:44pm Phillippe: Oooh, why didn't I say Elvis Costello? I'd like to change my choice to Elvis Costello. Forget I said anything else.
	2:44pm slugluv1313: Sylvia's Mother was a huge hit when i was a kid -- hah! maybe Nick Cave was listening too?!?
	2:44pm Monica: hello ifeelfatnsassy, misterpickles69, prudy, and ?
	2:47pm mitchella: Thanks monica, very enjoyable show X
	2:48pm Spankyflop: If I could sing, I'd probably choose Berlin-era Bowie as my voice.
	2:48pm Monica: greetings, Spankyflop!

	2:52pm HyperDose: This made me feel things. Thank you, Monica.
	2:52pm mitchella: right at this moment I would choose to sing like Diana Ross to my mum on facetime, she's lost the ability to communicate verbally but I know I'd get a beautiful smile outta of her if I sang ;-O
	2:52pm Krys O.: Your gif inspired me to seek out watching Veronika Voss. Never saw it before.
