No theme suggestions….yet. Merely a recommendation to check out the version of “Pink Elephants” by Sun Ra and the Arkestra on Stay Awake, which is this whacked-out collection of Disney covers….Tom Waits also takes the 7 Dwarfs on a tour of Hades….

I agree with bvsc–there’s a strange appeal to Phillies Fever, especially if you were around during that era.

Hey, Jay V, I’m listening to the Free Fallin’ cover now. It’s great–much better than the Kidz!

Yeah, what’s up with those Disney animators? What’s a huffalump?

Mark, logically the next mix of the week would be next week, but we know how that works. It’s easier to do if there’s a theme (I’m open to theme suggestions).

I thought that Kidz cover of "Float On" was SO rad and I actually love it! Better than my Tom Petty cover that's for sure.

It’s interesting to watch Dumbo and Winnie-the-Pooh back to back, or at least this clip and the Heffalumps segment from W-t-P. Those Disney dudes must have been into some most excellent stuff.

Phillies Fever is so AMAZING!

R.I.P. “Veteran’s Stadium, the hippest place in town.”

Thanks Becky.

I have no idea what could have caused this post. I am just a simple man in VA visiting his mother.

I was pretty sure you were kidding, your posts have been pretty clever lately.

D’oh! Did I say “lately,” I meant always, your posts have always been clever. Especially since you’ve gotten a life.

Now seriously, how long before the next MOTW?

I’ve heard some of these so-called “Kidz Bop” things and it’s scary that these kids sing a few songs with questionable lyrics. A bit wrong.

Oooh, I started fight! Mark, of course I kid. As for fever versus phever, it depends on your interpretation of this phrase. Some say that Phillies fever is an illness that strikes every year as the Phils blow it. In this case, fever is the correct spelling. Did I buy Kidz Bob? Surely you jest. I got it from an mp3 weblog.

Also… where did you get said Kidz Bop? Did you have the disc already, or did you purchase it especially for this mix? The possibilities boggle the mind.
