“Elvis in the ground” (“Bastards of Young”, written by Paul Westerberg)

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

It’s “Elvis in the ground, waiting on me tonight,” not “Elvis in the ground, there’ll be no beer tonight”.

“Elvis in the ground, waiting on me tonight.”

“Elvis in the ground, waiting on me tonight.”

“Elvis in the ground, waiting on me tonight.”

Arnold Schoenberg, A Survivor from Warsaw, Op. 46. Performed by Erich Leinsdorf.

Tuesday, June 13th, 2006

Whatever you do, don’t fall asleep while listening to some Debussy followed by Schoenberg’s A Survivor from Warsaw. The Debussy will lull you into a peaceful, somnolent state. Then A Survivor from Warsaw will come on and it…will…scare…the…living…hell…out…of…you. (But I guess that’s sort of the point of it, isn’t it?) I learned this from personal experience.
