Singing Credits

One of the oddball phrases you hear a lot is that someone is so great that you'd listen to them read the phone book.

Well, it used to be a phrase you'd hear a lot back before the internet when people had and used phone books. (Kids, ask your parents what this means.)

But Harry Nilsson really did have a voice that was so beautiful that it would be cool to hear him sing the phone book.

As far as I know he never did that (or at least never recorded it), but here's the next best thing: Nilsson sings the credits to the Otto Preminger movie Skidoo.

I don't see it, but okay.

I Wonder What It Cost Me

I loved the original version of this by Robyn Hitchcock and never knew this version existed until the YouTube Rabbit Hole served it up for me just now.

Oddly appropriate since I haven't posted in forever and the last post was another Neko Case song.
