Thank fuck for that! It's all over for another year, bar the screaming.
Time to put Mariah-fucking-Carey, Slade, Shakin' Stevens, Cliff-fucking-Richard, Paul McCartney, The Waitresses, Brenda Lee, Wizzard, Boney M, Johnny Mathis, Bing Crosby, Jona Lewie, Wham!, Michael Bublé, Chris de Burgh, Darlene Love, Greg Lake and all the rest of those tinsel-clad bastards back in their box...
...and get on with some proper music! Who better to provide it than our "house band" here at Dolores Delargo Towers - with a favourite, a true diva on board - and a remarkably apposite message?
Wow!
That certainly helps with the hangover...
Oh god how I love Sarah Potenza. Have been listening to her a lot lately. And, come to think of it, I haven't played ANY Christmas music.
ReplyDeleteAvoiding Xmas music is impossible if you listen to BBC (or any) radio as much as we do - so well done you, for avoiding it all! Miss Potenza is utterly remarkable, isn't she? Jx
DeletePreach, sister!
ReplyDeleteHallelujah! Jx
DeleteJ'adore Tallulah Bankhead 'le honey-lamb from Alabam',
ReplyDeleteelle pouvait boire l'importe qui sous la table :)
Mdm Potenza l'oiseau chanteur exceptionnel du Rhode Island.
Deux dames formidables.
*d'Anjou
Formidable, indeed! Jx
DeleteWhat about Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders dressed in sally army drag singing 2000 Miles?
ReplyDeleteI had a tryst on holiday with a young Nick Lowe lookalike, unfortunately he had the mannerisms and the talking voice of Tom Read Wilson can you imagine that?
How very off-putting... Jx
DeleteMade me feel like a fishwife.
DeleteI say nothing. Jx
DeleteWell that blew out the cobwebs! DANG
ReplyDeleteThought you'd like her! Jx
DeleteLovely. I heard almost no Christmas music. I turned on music for the dogs when I left the house for more than 30 minutes, so I heard the beginning of whatever they listened to and that was it.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
You've probably traumatised those dogs for life, leaving them in the house with Mariah-fucking-Carey caterwauling! Jx
DeleteThey didn't complain at all.
DeleteI would. Jx
DeleteHappy holidays, dear. Raise one in honor of the season. More to come... another year. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteWe're always glad to get rid of one year and replace it with a new one! Cheers! Jx
DeleteWhoa Mama !
ReplyDeleteFab U Lous !
She's fast becoming one of our favourite divas! Jx
DeleteI managed to avoid it , too. Didn't even see any ghastly littlies doing the carols thing. Here's to a better year ahead for everyone. (anyone got some left-over mistletoe? No? Oh well...cheers)
ReplyDeleteWe had no ankle-biters doing carolling round our way, either. Thank goodness! Jx
DeleteTallulah was once asked about a married couple she was seen with,
ReplyDeleteher reply - " Ooohhh dddarling, I did them both ! " :-)
The quote ends with "...and they were both terrible!" This may or may not have been one of the anecdotes Bea Arthur related in her one-woman show we went to see way back in - gulp - 2003! Jx
