Here's the clip of those two amazing musicians accepting their Oscar..and Jon Stewart bringing Marketa back out to say thanks since she was cut off. What a beautiful, beautiful song. If you don't tear up you ain't alive.
Watch til the end!
My friend Paul K of Random House tells me that Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings put on one of the best live show he has ever seen!
Falling Slowly! What a beautiful beatiful beautiful song!!!
I don't usually bluster about this but we had 3 new books hit the NYT list and, well, it happens often enough, but it's still cause to celebrate..and I'm on a chocolate rush. You can Browse Inside all 3: Manic, Lady Killer and Predictably Irrational all hit.
Don't miss 'em!!!! Best concert you'll ever see!!!
Been on family trip to Florida. On my mother-in-law's computer - she's very hip - and just sending along thoughts about Sirius satellite and a comedian.
My rental car has Sirius, and a channel called Classic Vinyl - is that perfect for me or what? Anyway, they do this charming thing - they play 2 seconds of that needle-hitting-the LP hiss. I'm sorry; I love that sound. It means pleasure to follow.
Marc Maron is HYSTERICAL! He takes on religion, sex and politics and he's pretty outrageous about it. No, very outrageous. Check out his CD, Tickets Still Available.
Jessica Hagy is smart and wickedly funny. I LOVE her new book, Indexed, and her blog. If you could put all aspects of life into drawings and circles, this would be it!
A wonderful entry by Nick in his blog about life in sunny Oxford, Mississippi, and more.
My boss Josh found a reference in a Harper history to a sales rep being prosecuted for selling Elinor Gyn's Three Weeks, which turns out to be the mildest of erotica, by her life is fascinating!
