SPARKS

This song has become an earworm. I like it a lot. Does anyone have any thoughts about the meaning of this line:

Someone in Hell?"

Is that an expression that I don't ...

What's your source for this? I can't find anything about it anywhere but here!

Only listened to the album once so far, but the chorus of (I Got a Lot in Common with) Dostoevsky has been bouncing around in my head and my wife has been singing it to our cat since we heard it over ...

Just been listening to a few tracks, I wouldn’t mind buying a hard copy if it’s available.

Thanks, that's good to know! I've been thinking about seeing if any labels would want to do a physical rel ...

I checked out the Bandcamp link, you're from Cleveland Heights? Hello neighbor! Any upcoming shows in the area? (Akron, hint, hint)

Well hey! I haven't spent much time in this part of the forum an ...

Hey, *I'm* an Other Artist!

I just put out an album that would probably(?) appeal to some Sparks fans. I wouldn't necessarily say it sounds like Sparks (apart from a couple spots that were directly ...

Annette has arrived and it got its first serious listen today. I love it. Completely. The "new" songs are addictive, especially Girls Love a Man Who Makes Them Laugh and (I Got a Lot in Comm ...

It's pretty great!

Ron and Russell have also mentioned another John Adams opera, The Death of Kinghoffer, as being an influence on them.

An album of one of his more recent operas, Girls of the Golden West, has just ...

Thanks! Don't think I'll order it now, but maybe if I'm in need of something to read in the future...

Didn't know there was a Divine Comedy book! How is it?

Really hope to hear those other three Urban Renewal Project songs one day!

Think that's gotta be Ron

Great read! Thanks for posting.

I always thought they were crazy for not playing that song during the Hippo tour. Just seemed like it would come off amazingly well live. Not holding my breath for it in DC, but fingers crossed!

We ended up seeing the band in Knoxville so we're going to skip the MI show. It's this Friday, April 1. Let me know and I can give you a good price!

YES! That hadn't occurred to me, but I'd be surprised if they weren't planning something like that. I saw Terry Riley play that organ back in 2009. Wish I still lived in LA.
