I haven't been seeing Doonesbury regularly since the most recent lj feed was axed, but I just caught up a bit, and am delighted to see a sending-up of a certain annoying phenom most despicably practiced by Rod "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" "Tonight's the Night" "Hot Legs" Stewart:

I'm with you on this one. I don't know why Rod Stewart suddenly decided that he had a good voice for the old standards. Although I suppose since I haven't actually heard his record (okay, CD, whatever), I really have no right to criticize him. After all, I was told I had a really good time at one of his concerts. That has nothing to do with anything. Sorry--I'm ramblin' in yer blog.

g'head & ramble! i ramble in yours, after all. 'sides, it's all about the conversation. (and the narcissism.) (ha)

Wasn't it Rod Stewart I wanted to see & tried to get the boys to want to go to, and they were all like, no, duh, how boring, then when ---was it you or Elana? when one of you expressed an interest, they were all, "we love rod stewart!"? (or whoever it was)

I'm so old I don't even remember my youthful kvetchy give-'em-shit stories.

Ha!! Equally but alternately icky is Paul Anka's new album where he is doing his version of songs from the Rod Stewart generation and beyond. Because everyone needs to hear a lounge lizzard version of Van Halen's Jump at least once before they die.--Sarah http://anchorednomad.blogspot.com

I heard somebody on the radio joke that next David Lee Roth will cover Anka's version note-fer-note. (Perhaps you recall his cover l.p. doing Louis Prima and the Beach Boys, e.g., phrase by phrase, including improvisational twiggits, like a mimic.)
