	3:21pm Anonymous Coward: One of the best voices in music today...
	3:22pm mark r: Notareal, my sister worked at the public station where Mr. Rogers did his show, and she wouldn't let me make fun of him when I was a teenage smartass--she said he was the kindest, most decent man she'd ever met. She absolutely adored him.
	3:22pm Rob Kopp: A couple of years ago I bought her 4-7"-box The Singles. Think it was a French only issue
	3:24pm mark r: This version of "Moon River" could make you cry if you're not careful.
	3:24pm Michael 98145: wonderful Audrey
	3:24pm Itzall Ablurr: "Chopped LIVER, onions on the side; my social life has died from YOU..." MAD magazine song parody, circa 1973
	3:25pm fred: I actually liked this Lana Del Rey track. And I love Moon River (I blame Kid Koala's mom). Here is the right place to get rid of my noise cred
	3:26pm modchick65: Love Moon River. Sorry I mostly missed it due to dealing with clamouring.

	3:33pm modchick65: @djsheilab -- That's weird that you say you're nervous. I have an unspecified anxiety. It's weird.

	3:48pm Michael 98145: love for the sake of love -- is there any other kind ?? :)
	3:49pm mzz: i thought i's the one unique troll but there seemed many boring tho
	3:49pm Bronwyn Bishop: At first I thought Claudja was lamenting the fact that another girl had a crush on her.
	3:50pm Bronwyn Bishop: on the album cover, i mean
	3:50pm Adrian in London: By the way, has anyone heard the Continental Subway show on the Give The Drummer stream? Three hours of non-English-language music from Leipzig. Some really great tracks on that show.
	3:50pm Cecile: Claudja Barry White.
	3:51pm Michael 98145: thanks for the tip, Adrian

	3:55pm MD: OMG!!!! BOING!!!
	3:55pm Anonymous Coward: Oh. My. God. I was in Japan when this was released, and thankfully, I never heard it on the redio...
	3:55pm MD: I HAPPENED AGAIN!!!
	3:55pm Cecile: JtotheK, Duane also plays Linda Lewis a lot. She has had a wild life!
	3:56pm 67tele: sounds like they're singing in between bashing Wile E. Coyote on the head...
	3:56pm MD: LOTS OF BOING FOR THE BUCK/YEN!!!
	3:56pm Anonymous Coward: That's better...
	3:57pm djsheilab: Sometimes one must play ridiculous records with BIG BOINGS!
	3:57pm modchick65: Love this Irma Thomas song.
	3:58pm Passaic River Blues: Irma = Double Plus Good
	3:58pm still b/p: Given the group name, I think that was the sound of Presidential grabs.
	3:58pm JtotheK: @Cecile - thanks! I'll have to search Duane archives for more LL, and that reminds me...I missed his show this week, need to listen this weekend for his Junie and Clyde tributes...
	4:00pm Cecile: Poor Patsy Anne. It's not Mary's fault, you know, you are dating a real winner.
	4:00pm mark r: I'm sure you have some fun with this "Tied Up with Mary" son at your go-go gigs! Very big with the S & M crowd, right?
	4:00pm eyenoise: What a jerk. He doesn't deserve Patsy Ann.
	4:03pm Cecile: JtotheK, they were spotless, as always.
	4:04pm ilovenon: hello
	4:04pm mcginniwa in wellington, nz: Whoop whoop
	4:05pm Bronwyn Bishop: thats me I'm a maestroso :D
	4:05pm Cecile: You left me out. :(
	4:06pm Cecile: I guess I'm "the rest" on the first season of Gillian's Island.
	4:06pm Carmichael: Late to the Sonic Boom party, but hello anyway!
	4:07pm modchick65: Oh, hell YES I am going to that show at Warsaw next week.
	4:07pm modchick65: Anyone else going?
	4:07pm tidaleneigjen: It's called a high striker. en.wikipedia.org...
	4:08pm ebwally: I'm new here and I got here via Radio Garden though I'm in Brooklyn. Great show! I'm in love - everyone has told me of WFMU for a couple of decades and only now ... the universe is perfect. Hello all.
	4:08pm MD: nO a FENCE!!!
	4:08pm JakeGould: Nice fence!
	4:08pm Adrian in London: Sheila, you should definitely do a BOING compilation. I bet Ace would put it out…!
	4:08pm Cecile: OK, I'll take the shout-out.
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...for that, you really have to let your deFences down...
	4:08pm modchick65: OMG... SHEILA!! Re: the women in love with inanimate objects... in the mid-90s, there was this woman in Sweden or something named "Madame Guillotine." She had a guillotine in her house, she was in love with it, she wrote poetry to it, and she eventually married it. It was on the internet when the internet just started.
	4:09pm Cecile: there are people who are erotically attracted to buildings.
	4:10pm fred: Damn, I'll be at a show next week
	4:11pm Rob Kopp: Rotterdam Termination Source did a thing (I refuse to call it music) called Poing
	4:12pm still b/p: I have a Women of Istanbul CD of club/cabaret singers from an earlier period, also very nice.
	4:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I know you will understand...I'm in love w/ black plastic : www.youtube.com...
	4:15pm MD: I'M IN LOVE WITH WFMU!!! WE HAVE BEEN GOING STEADY SINCE 1985!!!
	4:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Science fiction story plot idea: Buildings that are erotically attracted to people. Chapter One: It was an ordinary summer's day when Billy was walking down the street past the old warehouse across from the switch yard. Then, something peculiar caught his eye ... .
	4:16pm modchick65: I'll admit it. I have a thing for fonts.
	4:17pm MD: WFMU CAN SEE OTHER PEOPLE...I AM NOT JEALOUS...THAT'S THE KINDA LOVE WE HAVE!!!
	4:18pm listener james from westwood: Motels!!
	4:18pm modchick65: Awwwww.... the Motels' "Only The Lonely." Total summer of 1982. I love 1982.
	4:19pm Bronwyn Bishop: md, how do you feel about wmfu mount hope? is it like when you're married to someone who has an identical twin?
	4:19pm NotARealDoctor: Ken, I'm pretty sure that Chuck Tingle can write that for you.
	4:19pm Carmichael: Good ol' Martha Davis.
	4:20pm Whosondephone: 91.1 sounds amazing today!
	4:20pm Adrian in London: This Motels LP cover is very 'drawn by a teenager in art class', isn't it?
	4:21pm MD: mount hope is so cool!!! some times we go on dates and I tell people mount hope is her sister and no one knows!!!! they think I am with east orange!!!
	4:21pm Carmichael: East Orange is the new Black.
	4:22pm modchick65: This Kitten On The Keys is amazing. Seriously.
	4:22pm mzz: hate cat
	4:22pm Parq: Sure, this is impressive, but can the kitten carry the organ offstage afterward?
	4:22pm JakeGould: That kitten hasn't suffered enough to create art.
	4:22pm MD: Rock Land Co...WELL THAT'S ANOTHER STORY!!! WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT HERE!!
	4:22pm listener james from westwood: @Carmichael, that would be a great FMU T-shirt slogan.
	4:23pm ncjay: My cats ears were just going crazy when that was on!
	4:23pm JtotheK: mongo, groovy!
	4:24pm Carmichael: @james, I used that slogan on a Shut Up Weirdo episode a few years back. I may have won a T-shirt.
	4:24pm modchick65: Cat mini-set! Yes!
	4:24pm mzz: from Working Stiff: The urban legend is true. “Your faithful golden retriever might sit next to your dead body for days, starving, but the tabby won’t,” she writes. “Your pet cat will eat you right away, with no qualms at all. I’ve seen the result.”
	4:25pm mzz: calling fro Drug Store Cowboyyyy.. remember?
	4:26pm doctorjazz: I thought that was what you were playing, Judy In Disguise!
	4:26pm Carmichael: John Fred! You're hitting on all cylinders today, Sheila!
	4:26pm Rob Kopp: one of those lines I always heard wrong: Judy in the sky
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <() ()> \| \|____\| \| ♫ m\|\|\|\|\|\|m
	4:27pm doctorjazz: String section and everything, what a classic!
	4:27pm alan from sacto: Playboy Band plays like playboys
	4:27pm NotARealDoctor: @Rob Kopp, I did too!
	4:27pm Bronwyn Bishop: hey, its the occasional man!
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It started as a Mondegreen actually: tweeking 'Lucy in the Sky w/ Diamonds'.
	4:28pm Will: This song would come on all the time on the oldies station in my home town of Raleigh when I was kid (it was all I listened to when I was 8), I haven't heard this song in years & until now I thought it was 'Judy in the Sky'
	4:28pm Rob Kopp: @ RRN63: How long did it take you to draw that cat?
	4:28pm doctorjazz: (probably because of Lucy in the Sky, as RRN63 beat me to post.)
	4:29pm modchick65: This "But I Don't Care" song is majestic.
	4:30pm The Contessa: @modchick Agreed!
	4:32pm Rob Kopp: About misinterpretations: It has taken me years to find an (instrumental) single by The Ventures. I thought the dj had said Rhapsody, but it turned out to be Rap City.
	4:32pm Zimple: ASCII art cat or hula girl?
	4:35pm Bronwyn Bishop: i think sophisticated boom boom is a better name for a radio show than it is for a song.
	4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hula cat keyboard robot sex monster. W/ glasses.
	4:38pm dale: afternoon sheila and boomers. been listening out in the garage where it was a balmy 74 in the hudson valley.
	4:38pm NotARealDoctor: I tried to find Knock Knock by Twice on Google Play but could only find the music video on YouTube
	4:40pm Marc15: Sometimes I feel sorry for inanimate objects
	4:41pm dale: anytime you get bongos in a song it is instantly cooler!
	4:44pm JtotheK: also fun 'work song' 45s: Trade Martin on RCA, Tito Puente on Tico, and The Deltas on Philips...
	4:44pm eyenoise: I really enjoy Nina Simone's version of "Work Song"
	4:44pm Rob Kopp: @ Shelia: your originals book says the original is by Nat Adderley. He and Oscar Brown co-wrote the song.
	4:45pm Adrian in London: Man, if the record label's called Gusto you better bring some to the track, right?
	4:47pm NotARealDoctor: @Sheila, I've always wondered what your opening track is. Care to share a title with your devoted listeners?
	4:48pm dale: i'll assume we won't hear bow wow wow's 'work' song.
	4:48pm djsheilab: @NotARealDoctor Of course! It's Petite M'Amie's "Make-Love."
	4:52pm NotARealDoctor: Lovely! I just get so happy every Friday when I hear it! :)
	4:57pm Cecile: now you have to play Kylie doing the Loco-motion.
	4:57pm mzz: but when actually you'd play BCR!?
	4:58pm listener james from westwood: Whoa! 80s singer and curve queen Sam Fox!
	4:59pm Rob Kopp: Thanks for the title and artist of the tune. I had about 2 minutes in iTunes, but now I have the full song (3:11)
	4:59pm dale: page 3 girl as well.
	4:59pm Summer and Michael: This Elizabeth City State song is wonderful, Sheila. It's just about perfect for us. Thank you. Sending love...<3
	5:02pm Will: what happened?!
	5:02pm Rob Kopp: For original lovers: So fine was done by The Sheiks in '55
	5:02pm NotARealDoctor: I think my stream was hacked by the Deep Government!
	5:03pm alan from sacto: He was so fine he sublimated the music.
	5:03pm Rob Kopp: I think my sweet lord did something
	5:04pm Adrian in London: Ah, Françoise!
	5:04pm listener james from westwood: I heard this mystic, teleport-y interlude, which I'm gonna hope I've awakened in the timeline where HRC won. ::checks Twitter: Ah, crap.
	5:05pm NotARealDoctor: @ljfw, I check that every morning... :(
	5:06pm dale: i think barry adamson sampled that sha la la la for one of his songs on oedipus schmoedipus
	5:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: EAS ... thanks for the warning. I'll pop my earbugs out for a moment.
	5:07pm alan from sacto: That emergency signal test was so fine.
	5:08pm dale: someone should sample it.
	5:09pm Michael 98145: you make me smile, Sheila
	5:09pm NotARealDoctor: It WOULD make a great Billy Jams tune...
	5:11pm dgg: only the sexiest teenage pregnancies.
	5:11pm Mister Velvet Ear: EAS has never sounded better!
	5:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ..they should standardize it & have a tape of Barry White doing the EAS : ...Nooow - babies [wakawaka] I don't wantchoo to panic...I only want...[wakawaka]...a few seconds of your time...
	5:16pm Michael 98145: Breeders !!
	5:16pm dgg: i could listen to kim deal forever
	5:17pm NotARealDoctor: Now Michael, we need them to keep the species populated.
	5:17pm ChrisB.: Hi Sheila! I too, am here. As I am every week!
	5:17pm djsheilab: @RRNov63: Love it! Why can't announcing unplanned pregnancies to parents be sexy??!!
	5:17pm Michael 98145: Does daddy have a shotgun He said he'd never need one
	5:18pm Rob Kopp: Especially to Gigantic by The Pixies
	5:19pm Carmichael: I think there was a commercial song by a famous group of the time called Chippin' and Dippin'. The T Bones, maybe?
	5:21pm Rob Kopp: Is this Peanut who also did That goodness for the rain (Katies Kissoon)
	5:25pm modchick65: Dr. Shrinker?
	5:26pm dale: shrinker man was very cool! love the van dyke on the shrink.
	5:26pm Michael 98145: "repressed hostility blues" :)
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @djsheilab: [...Barry thinks for a second...] ...ya know - Mama [wakawaka]...when your baby - has a baby [wakawaka] - that's Barry - saying 'baby' twice [wakawaka]...Sooo much - looooove [wakawaka]...
	5:30pm alan from sacto: Shrinker Man was cool. Wonder what other track "hush little sibling" is like.
	5:34pm NotARealDoctor: And Alan Parsons!
	5:36pm modchick65: I loved Disco Bee Gees (and the ensuing lunchbox), but I never really got into their earlier stuff. Everyone says it's so great, but it just seems like overly dramatic earnest men pop. Meh. Just can't go there with you guys.
	5:37pm common: happy friday
	5:37pm Rob Kopp: Almost EVERY artist that has become popular since the 70's is bad.
	5:37pm dale: i heard an andy gibb song a couple of days ago and thought of this show. play babs ' woman in love' written by barry and robin - STICK IT TO THE HALL OF FAME!!!!!
	5:38pm Rob Kopp: Loved the Bee Gees in the 60's, but not in the 70's
	5:39pm common: happy friday
	5:41pm modchick65: Omg. I'm totally traumatized by the lyric. I can't handle a song about washing feet. Feet should not be in songs unless they're dancing. OMG. STOP. [rocking back and forth]
	5:41pm NotARealDoctor: Just 20 more minutes, and then I only have 5 more hours of work before I can enjoy the weekend.
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All those reasons. The BeeGees stepped out of Rawk - were massively successful in Disco - & eclipsed their earlier stuff. The general masses do recognize them as great singers & Popsters - for their 70s stuff. I happen to be old enuff I heardz the 60s BGs on the radio & always loved it & it's evocative for me that way. Explorer's Room had a mass of it : www.wfmu.org... To hell w/ the RR Hall of Fame - generally. Except as a Museum. There's kewl stuff there.
	5:43pm modchick65: Matthew Wilder. February 1984! I was home from 7th grade for 2 weeks because of strep throat. It was all Matthew Wilder, Cyndi Lauper, and ZZ Top.
	5:44pm Michael 98145: thru the time tunnel !!
	5:45pm dale: i love that sheila is young enough to appreciate the craftsmanship and production of some of these 70s top 40 hits. when you didn't grow up hearing it all the time it's charming. and actually 40 years later it IS charming.
	5:46pm dale: break my stride was 83? swore it was much earlier.
	5:46pm Rob Kopp: World by The Bee gees became no #1 in The Netherlands in 68 when I was 14. "And now I found that the world is round and of course it rains every day". Fantastic, when you're 14
	5:49pm lawrence: Sheila B!! This is the most wonderful song!!! Well played, Madam!
	5:49pm modchick65: Break My Stride was February 1984. I used to be able to tell you the month and year of any pop record's highest chart position... but I'm slipping with that. But I remember that one because of being off school. I can also tell you what episodes of Remington Steele aired those 2 weeks.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not being over-exposed can make a huge difference. Also - no longer the context of factions? Defining yourself as much by what you don't like as do like! Modernism was more earnest? I can still have a hard time w/ that tho'...Disco, for instance - in my small town was for the jocks & straights & Rawk for - us. In the city - Disco was often for minorities & gays & hard drug users. Practically the opposite!
	5:51pm dale: my front door is open and i here PEEPERS in the field across the way. nuts!
	5:52pm JtotheK: enjoyed the show -- thanks sheilaB!
	5:53pm Adrian in London: @RobKopp How could you not like 70s BeeGees?! That's nuts!
	5:54pm listener james from westwood: LOL, came to star this Niki track and see I've already done so.
	5:54pm Adrian in London: Yes, Niki and the Dove. Only heard them since listening to your show, Sheila, and this record is great.
	5:54pm Summer and Michael: Sheila, thank you so much for the dedication! Also... we sent you something c/o the station's PO Box. Be on the lookout! With love...
	5:55pm Just Ted: Is it creepy that I'm on this comments board?
	5:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Just Ted - Not at all. Good way to get your fingers warmed up. Thanks a bunch, Sheila. Enjoy the lovely weekend.
	5:56pm Michael 98145: thank you again, DJ Sheila
	5:56pm The Contessa: PP lovely!
	5:56pm alan from sacto: Thank you so much, DJSheilab!
	5:57pm dale: BIG andrew loog oldham production! more harpsichord please.
	5:57pm NotARealDoctor: Bye Sheila! We'll miss you! See you next week!
	5:58pm The Contessa: Thanks for a wonderful show Sheila! Until next week…
	5:58pm Adrian in London: How the hell has this show whizzed by so quickly?! Can't you just do another three hours?! Thanks, that was such a great show. xx
	5:58pm frozen_peas: raspberry beret
	5:58pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Sheila!!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: '1st Cut' a SoulPop Standard - covered by many. Don't remember hearing it! Knew only in later days. Thx for the feelings & the fun & the richness & the friendliness DJ SheilaB!
	5:59pm Rob Kopp: Everyone who's 12-14 will love the music he/she is hearing at that time and probably will be following the charts. I know every song that was in the Top 40 in 1967, but I couldn't name any song that is in the Top 40 right now. Really, I can't. I can tell you every a-side and b-side of the first 10 Bee Gees singles, but didn't like their 70's stuff. Even of my all time favorites The Kinks, I didn't like Lola. And that was the only song in NL that made it to #1 twice in different versions: in '70 (studio) and in '80 (live)
	6:00pm Rob Kopp: Thanks Sheila. Lok forward to the Turkey special next week
	6:00pm Michael 98145: Do they still have Top 40 radio ?? i guess they do.
	6:00pm spodiodi: thank you
	6:01pm djsheilab: Thank you gang! See you next week + have a fabulous weekend! Xoxo
	6:02pm Mister Velvet Ear: youre good!
	1:01pm peny: love your show Sheila! It's my weekly ritual to listen on Sundays and clean my apartment :)
	3:01pm mysilentface: Hello! It's another warm winter day in Brooklyn! <3

	3:22pm mark r: Notareal, my sister worked at the public station where Mr. Rogers did his show, and she wouldn't let me make fun of him when I was a teenage smartass--she said he was the kindest, most decent man she'd ever met. She absolutely adored him.
	3:22pm Rob Kopp: A couple of years ago I bought her 4-7"-box The Singles. Think it was a French only issue

	3:50pm Adrian in London: By the way, has anyone heard the Continental Subway show on the Give The Drummer stream? Three hours of non-English-language music from Leipzig. Some really great tracks on that show.

	3:58pm Passaic River Blues: Irma = Double Plus Good
	3:58pm still b/p: Given the group name, I think that was the sound of Presidential grabs.
	3:58pm JtotheK: @Cecile - thanks! I'll have to search Duane archives for more LL, and that reminds me...I missed his show this week, need to listen this weekend for his Junie and Clyde tributes...
	4:00pm Cecile: Poor Patsy Anne. It's not Mary's fault, you know, you are dating a real winner.
	4:00pm mark r: I'm sure you have some fun with this "Tied Up with Mary" son at your go-go gigs! Very big with the S & M crowd, right?

	4:08pm modchick65: OMG... SHEILA!! Re: the women in love with inanimate objects... in the mid-90s, there was this woman in Sweden or something named "Madame Guillotine."

	4:24pm Carmichael: @james, I used that slogan on a Shut Up Weirdo episode a few years back. I may have won a T-shirt.
	4:24pm modchick65: Cat mini-set! Yes!
	4:24pm mzz: from Working Stiff: The urban legend is true. “Your faithful golden retriever might sit next to your dead body for days, starving, but the tabby won’t,” she writes. “Your pet cat will eat you right away, with no qualms at all. I’ve seen the result.”
	4:25pm mzz: calling fro Drug Store Cowboyyyy.. remember?

	4:28pm Will: This song would come on all the time on the oldies station in my home town of Raleigh when I was kid (it was all I listened to when I was 8), I haven't heard this song in years & until now I thought it was 'Judy in the Sky'
	4:28pm Rob Kopp: @ RRN63: How long did it take you to draw that cat?
	4:28pm doctorjazz: (probably because of Lucy in the Sky, as RRN63 beat me to post.)
	4:29pm modchick65: This "But I Don't Care" song is majestic.
	4:30pm The Contessa: @modchick Agreed!
	4:32pm Rob Kopp: About misinterpretations: It has taken me years to find an (instrumental) single by The Ventures. I thought the dj had said Rhapsody, but it turned out to be Rap City.
	4:32pm Zimple: ASCII art cat or hula girl?
	4:35pm Bronwyn Bishop: i think sophisticated boom boom is a better name for a radio show than it is for a song.

	4:44pm Rob Kopp: @ Shelia: your originals book says the original is by Nat Adderley. He and Oscar Brown co-wrote the song.
	4:45pm Adrian in London: Man, if the record label's called Gusto you better bring some to the track, right?
	4:47pm NotARealDoctor: @Sheila, I've always wondered what your opening track is. Care to share a title with your devoted listeners?
	4:48pm dale: i'll assume we won't hear bow wow wow's 'work' song.
	4:48pm djsheilab: @NotARealDoctor Of course! It's Petite M'Amie's "Make-Love."

	5:05pm NotARealDoctor: @ljfw, I check that every morning... :(
	5:06pm dale: i think barry adamson sampled that sha la la la for one of his songs on oedipus schmoedipus
	5:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: EAS ... thanks for the warning. I'll pop my earbugs out for a moment.
	5:07pm alan from sacto: That emergency signal test was so fine.
	5:08pm dale: someone should sample it.
	5:09pm Michael 98145: you make me smile, Sheila
	5:09pm NotARealDoctor: It WOULD make a great Billy Jams tune...
	5:11pm dgg: only the sexiest teenage pregnancies.
	5:11pm Mister Velvet Ear: EAS has never sounded better!
	5:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ..they should standardize it & have a tape of Barry White doing the EAS : ...Nooow - babies [wakawaka] I don't wantchoo to panic...I only want...[wakawaka]...a few seconds of your time...
	5:16pm Michael 98145: Breeders !!
	5:16pm dgg: i could listen to kim deal forever
	5:17pm NotARealDoctor: Now Michael, we need them to keep the species populated.
	5:17pm ChrisB.: Hi Sheila! I too, am here. As I am every week!
	5:17pm djsheilab: @RRNov63: Love it! Why can't announcing unplanned pregnancies to parents be sexy??!!
	5:17pm Michael 98145: Does daddy have a shotgun He said he'd never need one
	5:18pm Rob Kopp: Especially to Gigantic by The Pixies
	5:19pm Carmichael: I think there was a commercial song by a famous group of the time called Chippin' and Dippin'. The T Bones, maybe?
	5:21pm Rob Kopp: Is this Peanut who also did That goodness for the rain (Katies Kissoon)
	5:25pm modchick65: Dr. Shrinker?
	5:26pm dale: shrinker man was very cool! love the van dyke on the shrink.
	5:26pm Michael 98145: "repressed hostility blues" :)
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @djsheilab: [...Barry thinks for a second...] ...ya know - Mama [wakawaka]...when your baby - has a baby [wakawaka] - that's Barry - saying 'baby' twice [wakawaka]...Sooo much - looooove [wakawaka]...
	5:30pm alan from sacto: Shrinker Man was cool. Wonder what other track "hush little sibling" is like.
	5:34pm NotARealDoctor: And Alan Parsons!
	5:36pm modchick65: I loved Disco Bee Gees (and the ensuing lunchbox), but I never really got into their earlier stuff. Everyone says it's so great, but it just seems like overly dramatic earnest men pop. Meh. Just can't go there with you guys.
	5:37pm common: happy friday
	5:37pm Rob Kopp: Almost EVERY artist that has become popular since the 70's is bad.
	5:37pm dale: i heard an andy gibb song a couple of days ago and thought of this show. play babs ' woman in love' written by barry and robin - STICK IT TO THE HALL OF FAME!!!!!
	5:38pm Rob Kopp: Loved the Bee Gees in the 60's, but not in the 70's
	5:39pm common: happy friday
	5:41pm modchick65: Omg. I'm totally traumatized by the lyric. I can't handle a song about washing feet. Feet should not be in songs unless they're dancing. OMG. STOP. [rocking back and forth]
	5:41pm NotARealDoctor: Just 20 more minutes, and then I only have 5 more hours of work before I can enjoy the weekend.
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All those reasons. The BeeGees stepped out of Rawk - were massively successful in Disco - & eclipsed their earlier stuff. The general masses do recognize them as great singers & Popsters - for their 70s stuff. I happen to be old enuff I heardz the 60s BGs on the radio & always loved it & it's evocative for me that way. Explorer's Room had a mass of it : www.wfmu.org... To hell w/ the RR Hall of Fame - generally. Except as a Museum. There's kewl stuff there.
	5:43pm modchick65: Matthew Wilder. February 1984! I was home from 7th grade for 2 weeks because of strep throat. It was all Matthew Wilder, Cyndi Lauper, and ZZ Top.
	5:44pm Michael 98145: thru the time tunnel !!
	5:45pm dale: i love that sheila is young enough to appreciate the craftsmanship and production of some of these 70s top 40 hits. when you didn't grow up hearing it all the time it's charming. and actually 40 years later it IS charming.
	5:46pm dale: break my stride was 83? swore it was much earlier.
	5:46pm Rob Kopp: World by The Bee gees became no #1 in The Netherlands in 68 when I was 14. "And now I found that the world is round and of course it rains every day". Fantastic, when you're 14
	5:49pm lawrence: Sheila B!! This is the most wonderful song!!! Well played, Madam!
	5:49pm modchick65: Break My Stride was February 1984. I used to be able to tell you the month and year of any pop record's highest chart position... but I'm slipping with that. But I remember that one because of being off school. I can also tell you what episodes of Remington Steele aired those 2 weeks.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not being over-exposed can make a huge difference. Also - no longer the context of factions? Defining yourself as much by what you don't like as do like! Modernism was more earnest? I can still have a hard time w/ that tho'...Disco, for instance - in my small town was for the jocks & straights & Rawk for - us. In the city - Disco was often for minorities & gays & hard drug users. Practically the opposite!
	5:51pm dale: my front door is open and i here PEEPERS in the field across the way. nuts!
	5:52pm JtotheK: enjoyed the show -- thanks sheilaB!
	5:53pm Adrian in London: @RobKopp How could you not like 70s BeeGees?! That's nuts!
	5:54pm listener james from westwood: LOL, came to star this Niki track and see I've already done so.
	5:54pm Adrian in London: Yes, Niki and the Dove. Only heard them since listening to your show, Sheila, and this record is great.
	5:54pm Summer and Michael: Sheila, thank you so much for the dedication! Also... we sent you something c/o the station's PO Box. Be on the lookout! With love...
	5:55pm Just Ted: Is it creepy that I'm on this comments board?

	5:58pm frozen_peas: raspberry beret
	5:58pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Sheila!!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: '1st Cut' a SoulPop Standard - covered by many. Don't remember hearing it! Knew only in later days. Thx for the feelings & the fun & the richness & the friendliness DJ SheilaB!
	5:59pm Rob Kopp: Everyone who's 12-14 will love the music he/she is hearing at that time and probably will be following the charts. I know every song that was in the Top 40 in 1967, but I couldn't name any song that is in the Top 40 right now. Really, I can't. I can tell you every a-side and b-side of the first 10 Bee Gees singles, but didn't like their 70's stuff. Even of my all time favorites The Kinks, I didn't like Lola. And that was the only song in NL that made it to #1 twice in different versions: in '70 (studio) and in '80 (live)
	6:00pm Rob Kopp: Thanks Sheila. Lok forward to the Turkey special next week
	6:00pm Michael 98145: Do they still have Top 40 radio ?? i guess they do.
	6:00pm spodiodi: thank you
	6:01pm djsheilab: Thank you gang! See you next week + have a fabulous weekend! Xoxo
	6:02pm Mister Velvet Ear: youre good!
	1:01pm peny: love your show Sheila! It's my weekly ritual to listen on Sundays and clean my apartment :)
	3:01pm mysilentface: Hello! It's another warm winter day in Brooklyn! <3
