	3:19pm Stephanie: Keep em comin! Colette Magny's vibrato reminds me of Benjamin Clementine. Did everyone check out the new Gorillaz song Hallelujah Money?
	♥ 3:19pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Sheila!
	3:19pm quietlyartistic: @claw! I was thinking that hugging is in order. Take us away Sheila B! #shoopshoopdedoopramalamadingdongyeahyeahyeah
	3:20pm Claw!: [group hug]
	3:21pm djsheilab: The world's going to hell so let's all just retreat into our bedrooms with champagne +a lover! Haha!
	♥ 3:22pm dgg: this is extremely nice Sheila
	3:23pm Evan From Seattle: @djsheilab I agree with your views and wish to subscribe to your newsletter haha
	3:26pm Claw!: this here is a nice music
	♥ 3:27pm Adrian in London: @DJSheilaB Ha, that's funny. Only this evening I'd liked something on Twiitter about Cherry Glazerr to tell you about her cos she sounded right up your street.
	3:29pm acid casualty: Was that swans or songs swimming in the bathtub?
	3:30pm east hollywood: Hello community! I concur with all on this board. Thank you Sheila! You make America Great!
	3:31pm Marching in Washington: Thanks for the music to get us in a good mood for the Women's March on Washington tomorrow!
	3:32pm Cliff in Prague: The SUW scream. Yeah I'll never forget that
	♥ 3:32pm Guido from Cologne: Don't you appreciate philosophic speeches?
	♥ 3:34pm listener james from westwood: I missed the proceedings, even opted out of my beloved GTDR programming to dodge reality. Will revisit the latter in archives. But had to get my ass in here where the disco ball never stops.
	3:36pm Cliff in Prague: I was wondering about Mari Mizutani, it says 1968 on the playlist but I clicked on the album cover and said, this looks 80's to me!
	♥ 3:38pm Guido from Cologne: @Cliff you're richt Mari Mizutani, born 1971.
	3:38pm Listener Robert: Who's WNSH-FM?
	3:40pm The Contessa: Nice!
	3:41pm Cliff in Prague: It was the hat Guido. I remember girls in school wearing hats like that in 1986.
	♥ 3:41pm Uncle Michael: Moon Bird sounds a bit like Midnight Cowboy.
	♥ 3:42pm Uncle Michael: Or was that the preceding bed music?
	3:42pm JakeGould: I think I'll just listen to "Killing Joke" until 2020.
	3:42pm djsheilab: @Cliff in Prague My mistake! Switched it to 1986. Frazzzzzzzled today!
	3:43pm Cliff in Prague: Totally understandable Sheila!
	3:43pm Claw!: i never really cared much for Pet Shop Boys, but this song could get it
	3:45pm TehBadDr: Boom boom she boom boom. Hello Sheila B and boomboomers!
	3:46pm Ahtie Spheahz: I've always been rather fond of Pet Shop Boys, but this song, right now is PERFECT. Thank you SheelarBee!
	3:47pm TehBadDr: @JakeGould don't let our fascist elect get you down!
	♥ 3:49pm Bend Sinister: You can't beat rain effects!
	♥ 3:49pm NotARealDoctor: This playlist is just the best for today. Thanks, Sheila B!
	3:49pm BennettCap: Aww. It's raining in my heart.
	♥ 3:50pm doctorjazz: Love this Rhythm of the Rain (couldn't have told you it was the Cascades even with a gun to my head, though).
	3:50pm Polycarp55: Maybe the Pet Shop Boys. Remind me of a time in bullet and riot infested Jerusalem, where it was 3 am. I was returning from a night out at the Arizona Bar. And another dance club, next to that Sapporo Pizza (the one was bombed by terrorists well after our visit.) I was making global plans with four other guys. One from England, One From Australia, and one from the Netherlands. Even though there was tension in the air, from social unrest, you could also feel the sparks of a creative revolution.
	3:50pm Claw!: this song always plays in my head when it rains
	♥ 3:50pm doctorjazz: actually, was that the original version of Rhythm of the Rain?
	♥ 3:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think I'll add a syrupy "Make America great again" when I answer the phone. This will assuredly lead to fewer phone calls.
	3:52pm Bronwyn Bishop: hi sheila and everyone!
	♥ 3:52pm listener james from westwood: Bronwyn B!
	3:53pm TehBadDr: I like this old timey stiff, makes you think about trend and appreciation of music.
	3:53pm Polycarp55: Wow! This playlist rocks. We have Rihanna Featuring Jay Z with Umbrella, and then now with Ella Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall. Awesome mix. Thanks. BTW it is sunny here in Florida.
	3:53pm Bronwyn Bishop: Hi James! :D
	3:53pm JakeGould: So good! Inkspots! Speak bad now. Type weird.
	♥ 3:55pm cosmic matrix: Hahah I figured it was raining in the tri-state area when I noticed a few rain songs in a row. And it is!
	3:55pm TehBadDr: Strange pop, why not in these strange times.
	3:57pm Claw!: this makes me feel like I'm in a Forever 21
	3:57pm steve: rain just started mins ago in Greenpoint
	3:58pm steve: Sheila i LOVE this new pop stuff you find
	3:59pm djsheilab: Thanks @Steve! And agreed @TehBadDr Something most peculiar about the vocal in that MUNA track. But I love it nonetheless.
	♥ 4:01pm Adrian in London: Me pre Sheila: I will listen only to this moody droney experimental ambient music Me post Sheila: Woohoo!!! The Weather Girls!!!
	4:02pm TehBadDr: @Claw! Forever 21 is for the millennials. Forever 49 is for us folks who have lived it all before, still searching for another kick!
	4:03pm Claw!: @ TehBadDr - I need to find me one of those
	4:03pm steve: omg yes i agree about vocal affect
	4:04pm βrian: "But autotune is me," they proclaim. Eh ... no.
	4:04pm Cliff in Prague: Sheila are you talking about the Millenial Whoop? qz.com...
	♥ 4:04pm cosmic matrix: The Munu song sounded like 80's-inspired electronic pop with modern vocal style to me
	♥ 4:04pm cosmic matrix: I liked the music better than the vocals
	4:06pm Dean: Shame both that listener and the DJ disliked that pop song so much. I never here people complaining about Dylan or Lou Reed's obviously affected voice. I like the MUNA song! And this is not my type of music..made me feel a little better on an awful day in America.
	4:06pm βrian: The Ink Spots were too polite to say "shitstorm."
	4:07pm Rob Kopp: @Holly from NZL (if you're listening): Thanks for your recommendation of Snapper. Gently hours (b-side of Vader) is a great and I've put it on my wantlist. BTW: The cover by The Clean is even better.
	4:08pm TehBadDr: @Claw!: Another Kick, or a mixed up millenial?
	4:09pm βrian: I always liked the vocal affectation of Cousin It.
	4:09pm LPCOVERLOVER: oh I love this sweet soul one. good good lovin' thanks Sheila!
	4:11pm JakeGould: @Dean: Ummm, Sheila is talking about affectation. Lou Reed and Bob Dylan had personal styles. Big diff.
	♥ 4:12pm Adrian in London: That Dolly Mixture cover artwork is great
	4:13pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: Yeah, but the one with the orange hair looks a bit like ... Trump?
	4:14pm TehBadDr: Love the always changing and surprising mix. Damn I want to met a girl in a soda shop!
	4:14pm Dean: "Weap-on. Nobody talks like that". I believe was the quote. Nobody talks like they sing, but I just jumped on to say I liked a song, not to argue.
	♥ 4:16pm listener james from westwood: I adore that Dolly Mixture cover.
	4:16pm Rob Gee: Great tunes!
	4:16pm TehBadDr: ZOMG it's the 80's again! I don't know how I feel about this....
	4:17pm djsheilab: @Dean I love that song, which is why I played it. But vocal affectations in both women + men bother me. Hence my bringing it up. I've been publicly critical of people fawning over Dylan + Jagger's voices and criticizing voices like Brigitte Bardot's, FYI.
	4:17pm JakeGould: I like Deniece Williams.
	♥ 4:18pm Michael 98145: yes, nice to hear this again
	4:18pm Rob Gee: 4 am here in Hanoi and the music is awesome
	♥ 4:18pm Adrian in London: @Rob Kopp No. Not at all. And please don't use that name on this board. This is a refuge, a sanctuary. ;-)
	4:18pm Claw!: @TehBadDr - a Forever 49 I've had enough mixed-up Millenials, believe me... I'm one of them, technically. But at 32, I identify more with Xers, seeing as how I remember the world before internet and cellphones...
	♥ 4:18pm Michael 98145: what does tomorrow look like ??
	♥ 4:18pm doctorjazz: Deneice Williams, so let's hear it!
	4:19pm Claw!: Dylan and Jagger piss me off
	4:19pm JasonInBoston: Sheila, Check out some early Niecy like "Free" and her recordings as Denise Chandler on Lock and Toddlin' Town. Good stuff.
	4:19pm JakeGould: Is this Trump election what it feels like to be adopted or abandoned.
	♥ 4:19pm Adrian in London: @Sheila This is such a lovely comforting set
	♥ 4:20pm Mike Sin: re: Mally Page. Nice! Never heard that b-side!
	4:20pm The Contessa: @Rob Gee, 4am!!
	♥ 4:20pm Joe McG: Oh, Sheila, thanks! LOVE this O'Jays song.
	4:20pm TehBadDr: @ 4:18 Michael 98145 www.alewebsite.net...
	♥ 4:21pm Michael 98145: * yikes *
	4:23pm TehBadDr: Well, that's tomorrow in the vernacular and long term, maybe short term run.
	♥ 4:23pm listener james from westwood: I ... I did not know the Heavy D cover of this was, actually a cover! What a smooth track this started out as! (And I dig the hell out of D's version too!)
	♥ 4:24pm listener james from westwood: Aaaahhhh, you rock!! Said Heavy version!!
	4:24pm AZ: Do yourself a favor and catch Third World's version of Now That We Found Love. Takes me back to 1979-80 Jamaica.
	4:25pm JasonInBoston: and don't forget about the AMAZING cover of Now That We Found Love by Third World that came out before the Heavy D version.
	4:25pm Stephanie: Yessss. Can't help but be happy listening to thisss
	4:27pm AZ: Sorry for abbreviating my name. Why are the math questions so hard? -- AZDave
	4:28pm Old Dave: I loved the Third World before realizing I lived in the Fourth World. Still do, just a different reality.
	4:30pm Cliff in Prague: I thought Capsule was Pizzicato Five at first...
	♥ 4:31pm Michael 98145: bouncy capsule !
	♥ 4:33pm listener james from westwood: Heavy D got me up off my ass to do some cleaning amid otherwise sedentary proofreading, so hell yeah to that!
	4:35pm JakeGould: You went on a bender, Sheila. A bender.
	4:36pm Cliff in Prague: And the airplane in "Airplane!" went through that disco station's transmitter
	4:37pm djsheilab: @JackGould A bender! Yes! Thank you!
	4:39pm TehBadDr: I stink of, and might be getting off on BioFreeze
	4:39pm djsheilab: I love you Barry Gibb + the Bee Gees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	4:39pm Rob Kopp: I only have 2 female Bee Gees covers in iTunes: Un giorno come un altro (=First of May) by Lillian and Run to me by Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs
	4:39pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and Boomers. It's been 4 hours and we haven't dropped a bomb on anyone yet. I guess that's a good thing.
	4:40pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp I haven't heard that version of "Run To Me." WOW! Must investigate!
	4:40pm BennettCap: I could listen to Streisand sing "Woman in Love" over and over, belting it out with her over and over, and still go back for more.
	4:41pm Old Dave: We mostly voted Dem, to answer your question,Sheila. At least the friends I made on college radio as a 4AM DJ. There was a thing called Punk that spoke to those of us cleaning toilets to get through school at the time.
	♥ 4:42pm Adrian in London: Diana's hair is magnificent on that cover. And the tiger with the pearls in its teeth, haha!
	4:43pm Stephanie: Thanks for the shout out sheila b! Thumbs up for the Bee Gees too! So much happiness.
	♥ 4:43pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, this "Fool" brings me back. Rolling up endless numbers of D&D characters during middle school and tracks like this one in the background.
	♥ 4:45pm dale: need a little 70s soft rock after watching the tube today.
	4:45pm Slick Goldtooth: Good stuff, loving it. @djsheilab, I'm learning the tough endless struggle you had of trying to find Jacqueline Taieb's "7 Heures Du Matin", thought I found gold at a record swap I recently went to but it was just an empty somewhat scruffy looking sleeve the owner wanted $45 bucks for :/
	4:46pm Cheyenne: Thanks for the tunes, Sheila B. Music may not change the world but it definitely makes the place more bearable!
	♥ 4:46pm listener james from westwood: Whole lotta Gibbs goin' on in this set—yes!
	♥ 4:46pm Adrian in London: Hey @SHeilaB what's your Single of the Week this week? ;-)
	4:46pm The Contessa: Got a soft spot for all this falsetto business…
	4:47pm Rob Kopp: That Sweet & Hoffs cover of Run to me is on their first CD in the Under the covers-series (1 60's, 2 70's, 3 80's) and I love all of their covers of 60's songs.
	♥ 4:48pm Michael 98145: ( always thought "fanny pack" was a bit of a chortle :)
	4:48pm Keith from Oregon: Fanny was a great band!
	♥ 4:50pm Ken From Hyde Park: How to feel better about yourself: Step 1: Know that you are smarter than the president of the United States of America.
	4:50pm Old Dave: @dale- was the National Anthem a little forced, or are my ears betraying me?
	♥ 4:50pm A lump of mud: Thanks Ken!
	♥ 4:52pm Adrian in London: I bought this LP, in mint condition, for two pounds from a charity shop in East Grinstead last year, after Sheila played a track from it.
	♥ 4:55pm Michael 98145: * nice cover of this song *
	4:55pm chalmers: @Ken From Hyde Park: 1. Smarter. 2. Better read. 3. Have actual friends. 4. Laugh at least occasionally 5. Can let minor slights go.
	4:56pm JakeGould: Also folks, remember: Grizzly bears in the classroom.
	♥ 4:57pm Michael 98145: these are trying times .
	4:57pm jiepar: grease is the worrrrrrd
	♥ 4:57pm listener james from westwood: Holy damn, that "Deep" cover and this "Grease" one!
	♥ 4:58pm Michael 98145: grease is the way we are feeling .
	4:59pm Rob Kopp: @Slick Goldtooth: A couple of years ago there was a reissue with 7 heures du matin (French version) on the a-side and 7 AM (the English version) on the b-side. And 10 years ago she made an EP with Amsterdam Beatclub with 2 new versions: 7h du soir (French) and 7 PM (English)
	4:59pm Slick Goldtooth: If you need a chuckle, the midday BBC news radio report on today's event was pretty great. Especially when the Canadian defense minister got asked on what he thinks Trump would think on Trudeau and he kinda gives a cop out answer because it's too obvious how he really felt and wanted to say.
	5:00pm JasonInBoston: I really like this version of Grease and how it gives a nod to I Can't Stand the Rain with the little popping sounds in the background.
	5:00pm Slick Goldtooth: @Rob Oh snap, I had no idea. I'll definitely have to keep my eyes peeled.
	5:01pm Undead83: Wow, great show ^^
	5:04pm Cliff in Prague: Thanks for spoiling us Sheila! Off to bed now
	5:04pm Old Dave: Slick- I really like that Sikh Defense Minister guy. He is doing actual public service. The cabinet in Canada is 50 percent women. Hence, the whole country has escaped Trump's notice!
	♥ 5:05pm Michael 98145: Almost forgot -- Happy Birthday to David Lynch .
	♥ 5:06pm Adrian in London: Slick Goldsmith BBC World News accidentally put subtitles from a kids's show over the Trump inauguration speech and the results are marvellous twitter.com...
	♥ 5:07pm Michael 98145: The ACA has also benefited people relying on Medicaid
	5:07pm Carmichael: @Michael98145: How ironic is that? He couldn't have directed this day any better!
	5:08pm djsheilab: Here's a link to the Atul Gawande piece. It's SO great! www.newyorker.com...
	5:09pm Fox (Rā-chul): I recently read an article by a Lyme Disease doctor, and she said persistent Lyme Disease is disbelieved by many doctors and the people in patients' lives, who doubt the severity of the illness. She's seen many marriages dissolve over the issue, and many patients in a state of PTSD over trying to prove to others that they are ill. Just having someone BELIEVE that you are sick is a huge deal.
	5:10pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian. I guess Theresa May has to apologize to ... somebody
	5:11pm djsheilab: @Fox COMPLETELY! That's what struck me so much about this article. These people really care + are willing to put in the time with their patients, and it pays off!
	♥ 5:11pm dale: old dave - yeah, military chorus and musicians. i wish the armed forces didn't play so heavily into the pomp of it all. and there was no kenny goldsmith reading traffic reports so it was kind of a bust
	♥ 5:11pm Michael 98145: i'm a sucker for this habibi music
	5:11pm andrewb: I never war a disco sucks t-shirt but consider that disco came out along with punk. Punk to us kids felt raw and real as opposed to disco which always felt manufactured for a demanding market. Consider "Grease" added to the movie version. Pure post saturday night fever money grab and totally wrong for a period musical.
	5:12pm andrewb: wore
	5:12pm quietlyartistic: Wha? Sampling Jesus Christ Superstar? Far out!
	♥ 5:12pm dale: did ofra haza ever have a hit besides im nin alu?
	5:13pm slugluv1313: "I'm Barry-effin'-GIBB! :) ahhh and now, Nancy Ajram! THANK YOU, Sheila, for helping to heal a really crappy day in human history!
	♥ 5:13pm JtotheK: hi sheilaB, hi boom-boomers. enjoying the program today.
	5:14pm Slick Goldtooth: @Fox, I know Kathleen Henna of Bikini Kill fame was diagnosed super late with late stage Lyme's Disease because a lot of doctors were unsure exactly what was wrong with her until well after the fact when a lot of damage was done. I know she's recovered now but it's pretty terrifying going so long with not knowing what is causing you a lot of pain.
	5:15pm Griff: Love Grazia.
	5:15pm JakeGould: Hey everybody! Deep breathing exercises help! Srsly!
	♥ 5:15pm dale: i only recently discovered the shangri-las song 'sophisticated boom boom' - i never knew
	♥ 5:18pm frozen_peas: security!! yay. :)
	5:18pm Carmichael: That Shapiro track sounded a bit slowed down. Her voice seemed lower than normal, even ...
	♥ 5:19pm doctorjazz: Mavis, great!
	5:20pm JasonInBoston: The Helen Shapiro is a cover of the awesome Millie Foster on TCF.
	♥ 5:21pm listener james from westwood: Lovely stuff. this COTE. And I'm still not used to seeing 2017 as the date on a record! I just assume you've got a time machine.
	5:23pm djsheilab: @Carmichael Hmmmm....I wonder if it's the turntable, this is sounding sloooooow too.
	5:23pm Fox (Rā-chul): @Slick - Even if you DO know you've got Lyme it's a rough time. I've got some genetic health issues, and got Lyme Disease on top of that. I caught it within a few months, but I've got chronic migraines now, cognitive decline, and body pains. Seven years later I am still on anti-biotics, because without them, I get one long unrelenting headache. The moral of the story is: Don't go outside. Not ever.
	5:25pm Rob Kopp: J'ain rendez-vous of that EP is fantastic
	5:25pm nightjeans: ok this one's my favorite of the week. you're rad sheila b
	♥ 5:26pm common: hey sheiila b. all. thanks for making this day bearable.
	5:26pm Carmichael: Sheila, is that turntable 2? Unless Ken recently replaced it, it has had issues for a long time.
	5:29pm Rob Kopp: The box Scream Loud - The Fenton story has another version by Lyn & The Invaders
	5:29pm Carmichael: Looks like Ashton Kutcher on the Delizia cover.
	♥ 5:30pm dale: can i get a little womb service around here?
	5:30pm BennettCap: Totally wombin' right now!
	♥ 5:30pm dgg: warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb warm womb
	5:30pm Slick Goldtooth: @Fox , true true, either way it's no picnic. Guy I used to work with gets nerve pains and has really poor vision in one eye due to it.
	♥ 5:31pm dgg: sophisticated warm womb
	5:31pm slocker: Sheila B giving me some needed sunshine today. <3
	5:31pm Fox (Rā-chul): @Slick - YIKES!
	5:33pm ans: habibi means darling / sweetheart
	5:33pm Slick Goldtooth: Habibi is an endearing term like love, friend, babe, things in that realm
	♥ 5:34pm dale: i'm pretty sure i've amassed 4 copies of the smothers brothers live at the green onion. how many copies of the button down mind i have are anyone's guess.
	5:44pm Rob Kopp: I guess in 2004 or 2005, while on holiday in Turkey, there was a beach tent that played this fantastic cover of Dylan's One more cup of coffee by Turkish singer Sertab every day. You can find it on the compilation Masked & Anonymous, and here www.youtube.com...
	♥ 5:45pm dale: god, they knew how to produce a rekkid in 1963.
	♥ 5:46pm Michael 98145: on magnetic tape, no less ...
	♥ 5:47pm Walt: Dale I think that's the Purple Onion ... just for the record :)
	5:47pm JakeGould: A womb of my own... That was my mom!
	5:47pm Rob Kopp: Wow, what a sleeve. Where's that one from?
	5:48pm DV: Thanx for the groovy tunes...helped pass our first fascist friday together... you spun music and I made collages all afternoon... and I usually loath pop.
	♥ 5:49pm dale: d'oh! got confused with booker t!
	5:49pm djsheilab: @DV First fascist Friday! Haha! That is great. Glad you've dug the show :)
	5:49pm Rob Kopp: I see it on Discogs; just the American one. Didn't know it had a sleeve.
	♥ 5:51pm Michael 98145: * to hell with hate *
	5:52pm The Contessa: I love Chairman of the Board!
	♥ 5:53pm Michael 98145: thank you again, wonderful DJ Sheila. www.instagram.com...
	♥ 5:54pm ChrisB.: Here I am, chiming in at the last few, but what a great show!

	3:26pm Claw!: this here is a nice music
	♥ 3:27pm Adrian in London: @DJSheilaB Ha, that's funny. Only this evening I'd liked something on Twiitter about Cherry Glazerr to tell you about her cos she sounded right up your street.

	3:32pm Cliff in Prague: The SUW scream. Yeah I'll never forget that
	♥ 3:32pm Guido from Cologne: Don't you appreciate philosophic speeches?
	♥ 3:34pm listener james from westwood: I missed the proceedings, even opted out of my beloved GTDR programming to dodge reality. Will revisit the latter in archives. But had to get my ass in here where the disco ball never stops.
	3:36pm Cliff in Prague: I was wondering about Mari Mizutani, it says 1968 on the playlist but I clicked on the album cover and said, this looks 80's to me!
	♥ 3:38pm Guido from Cologne: @Cliff you're richt Mari Mizutani, born 1971.
	3:38pm Listener Robert: Who's WNSH-FM?
	3:40pm The Contessa: Nice!
	3:41pm Cliff in Prague: It was the hat Guido. I remember girls in school wearing hats like that in 1986.
	♥ 3:41pm Uncle Michael: Moon Bird sounds a bit like Midnight Cowboy.
	♥ 3:42pm Uncle Michael: Or was that the preceding bed music?
	3:42pm JakeGould: I think I'll just listen to "Killing Joke" until 2020.
	3:42pm djsheilab: @Cliff in Prague My mistake! Switched it to 1986. Frazzzzzzzled today!
	3:43pm Cliff in Prague: Totally understandable Sheila!
	3:43pm Claw!: i never really cared much for Pet Shop Boys, but this song could get it
	3:45pm TehBadDr: Boom boom she boom boom. Hello Sheila B and boomboomers!
	3:46pm Ahtie Spheahz: I've always been rather fond of Pet Shop Boys, but this song, right now is PERFECT. Thank you SheelarBee!
	3:47pm TehBadDr: @JakeGould don't let our fascist elect get you down!
	♥ 3:49pm Bend Sinister: You can't beat rain effects!
	♥ 3:49pm NotARealDoctor: This playlist is just the best for today. Thanks, Sheila B!
	3:49pm BennettCap: Aww. It's raining in my heart.
	♥ 3:50pm doctorjazz: Love this Rhythm of the Rain (couldn't have told you it was the Cascades even with a gun to my head, though).
	3:50pm Polycarp55: Maybe the Pet Shop Boys. Remind me of a time in bullet and riot infested Jerusalem, where it was 3 am. I was returning from a night out at the Arizona Bar. And another dance club, next to that Sapporo Pizza (the one was bombed by terrorists well after our visit.) I was making global plans with four other guys. One from England, One From Australia, and one from the Netherlands. Even though there was tension in the air, from social unrest, you could also feel the sparks of a creative revolution.
	3:50pm Claw!: this song always plays in my head when it rains
	♥ 3:50pm doctorjazz: actually, was that the original version of Rhythm of the Rain?
	♥ 3:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think I'll add a syrupy "Make America great again" when I answer the phone. This will assuredly lead to fewer phone calls.
	3:52pm Bronwyn Bishop: hi sheila and everyone!
	♥ 3:52pm listener james from westwood: Bronwyn B!
	3:53pm TehBadDr: I like this old timey stiff, makes you think about trend and appreciation of music.
	3:53pm Polycarp55: Wow! This playlist rocks. We have Rihanna Featuring Jay Z with Umbrella, and then now with Ella Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall. Awesome mix. Thanks. BTW it is sunny here in Florida.
	3:53pm Bronwyn Bishop: Hi James! :D
	3:53pm JakeGould: So good! Inkspots! Speak bad now. Type weird.
	♥ 3:55pm cosmic matrix: Hahah I figured it was raining in the tri-state area when I noticed a few rain songs in a row. And it is!
	3:55pm TehBadDr: Strange pop, why not in these strange times.
	3:57pm Claw!: this makes me feel like I'm in a Forever 21
	3:57pm steve: rain just started mins ago in Greenpoint
	3:58pm steve: Sheila i LOVE this new pop stuff you find
	3:59pm djsheilab: Thanks @Steve! And agreed @TehBadDr Something most peculiar about the vocal in that MUNA track. But I love it nonetheless.
	♥ 4:01pm Adrian in London: Me pre Sheila: I will listen only to this moody droney experimental ambient music Me post Sheila: Woohoo!!! The Weather Girls!!!
	4:02pm TehBadDr: @Claw! Forever 21 is for the millennials. Forever 49 is for us folks who have lived it all before, still searching for another kick!
	4:03pm Claw!: @ TehBadDr - I need to find me one of those
	4:03pm steve: omg yes i agree about vocal affect
	4:04pm βrian: "But autotune is me," they proclaim. Eh ... no.
	4:04pm Cliff in Prague: Sheila are you talking about the Millenial Whoop? qz.com...
	♥ 4:04pm cosmic matrix: The Munu song sounded like 80's-inspired electronic pop with modern vocal style to me
	♥ 4:04pm cosmic matrix: I liked the music better than the vocals
	4:06pm Dean: Shame both that listener and the DJ disliked that pop song so much. I never here people complaining about Dylan or Lou Reed's obviously affected voice. I like the MUNA song! And this is not my type of music..made me feel a little better on an awful day in America.
	4:06pm βrian: The Ink Spots were too polite to say "shitstorm."
	4:07pm Rob Kopp: @Holly from NZL (if you're listening): Thanks for your recommendation of Snapper. Gently hours (b-side of Vader) is a great and I've put it on my wantlist. BTW: The cover by The Clean is even better.
	4:08pm TehBadDr: @Claw!: Another Kick, or a mixed up millenial?
	4:09pm βrian: I always liked the vocal affectation of Cousin It.
	4:09pm LPCOVERLOVER: oh I love this sweet soul one. good good lovin' thanks Sheila!
	4:11pm JakeGould: @Dean: Ummm, Sheila is talking about affectation. Lou Reed and Bob Dylan had personal styles. Big diff.
	♥ 4:12pm Adrian in London: That Dolly Mixture cover artwork is great
	4:13pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: Yeah, but the one with the orange hair looks a bit like ... Trump?
	4:14pm TehBadDr: Love the always changing and surprising mix. Damn I want to met a girl in a soda shop!
	4:14pm Dean: "Weap-on. Nobody talks like that". I believe was the quote. Nobody talks like they sing, but I just jumped on to say I liked a song, not to argue.
	♥ 4:16pm listener james from westwood: I adore that Dolly Mixture cover.
	4:16pm Rob Gee: Great tunes!
	4:16pm TehBadDr: ZOMG it's the 80's again! I don't know how I feel about this....
	4:17pm djsheilab: @Dean I love that song, which is why I played it. But vocal affectations in both women + men bother me. Hence my bringing it up. I've been publicly critical of people fawning over Dylan + Jagger's voices and criticizing voices like Brigitte Bardot's, FYI.
	4:17pm JakeGould: I like Deniece Williams.
	♥ 4:18pm Michael 98145: yes, nice to hear this again
	4:18pm Rob Gee: 4 am here in Hanoi and the music is awesome
	♥ 4:18pm Adrian in London: @Rob Kopp No. Not at all. And please don't use that name on this board. This is a refuge, a sanctuary. ;-)
	4:18pm Claw!: @TehBadDr - a Forever 49 I've had enough mixed-up Millenials, believe me... I'm one of them, technically. But at 32, I identify more with Xers, seeing as how I remember the world before internet and cellphones...
	♥ 4:18pm Michael 98145: what does tomorrow look like ??
	♥ 4:18pm doctorjazz: Deneice Williams, so let's hear it!
	4:19pm Claw!: Dylan and Jagger piss me off
	4:19pm JasonInBoston: Sheila, Check out some early Niecy like "Free" and her recordings as Denise Chandler on Lock and Toddlin' Town. Good stuff.
	4:19pm JakeGould: Is this Trump election what it feels like to be adopted or abandoned.
	♥ 4:19pm Adrian in London: @Sheila This is such a lovely comforting set
	♥ 4:20pm Mike Sin: re: Mally Page. Nice! Never heard that b-side!
	4:20pm The Contessa: @Rob Gee, 4am!!
	♥ 4:20pm Joe McG: Oh, Sheila, thanks! LOVE this O'Jays song.
	4:20pm TehBadDr: @ 4:18 Michael 98145 www.alewebsite.net...
	♥ 4:21pm Michael 98145: * yikes *
	4:23pm TehBadDr: Well, that's tomorrow in the vernacular and long term, maybe short term run.
	♥ 4:23pm listener james from westwood: I ... I did not know the Heavy D cover of this was, actually a cover! What a smooth track this started out as! (And I dig the hell out of D's version too!)
	♥ 4:24pm listener james from westwood: Aaaahhhh, you rock!! Said Heavy version!!
	4:24pm AZ: Do yourself a favor and catch Third World's version of Now That We Found Love. Takes me back to 1979-80 Jamaica.
	4:25pm JasonInBoston: and don't forget about the AMAZING cover of Now That We Found Love by Third World that came out before the Heavy D version.
	4:25pm Stephanie: Yessss. Can't help but be happy listening to thisss
	4:27pm AZ: Sorry for abbreviating my name. Why are the math questions so hard? -- AZDave
	4:28pm Old Dave: I loved the Third World before realizing I lived in the Fourth World. Still do, just a different reality.
	4:30pm Cliff in Prague: I thought Capsule was Pizzicato Five at first...
	♥ 4:31pm Michael 98145: bouncy capsule !
	♥ 4:33pm listener james from westwood: Heavy D got me up off my ass to do some cleaning amid otherwise sedentary proofreading, so hell yeah to that!
	4:35pm JakeGould: You went on a bender, Sheila. A bender.
	4:36pm Cliff in Prague: And the airplane in "Airplane!" went through that disco station's transmitter
	4:37pm djsheilab: @JackGould A bender! Yes! Thank you!
	4:39pm TehBadDr: I stink of, and might be getting off on BioFreeze
	4:39pm djsheilab: I love you Barry Gibb + the Bee Gees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	4:39pm Rob Kopp: I only have 2 female Bee Gees covers in iTunes: Un giorno come un altro (=First of May) by Lillian and Run to me by Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs
	4:39pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and Boomers. It's been 4 hours and we haven't dropped a bomb on anyone yet. I guess that's a good thing.
	4:40pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp I haven't heard that version of "Run To Me." WOW! Must investigate!
	4:40pm BennettCap: I could listen to Streisand sing "Woman in Love" over and over, belting it out with her over and over, and still go back for more.
	4:41pm Old Dave: We mostly voted Dem, to answer your question,Sheila. At least the friends I made on college radio as a 4AM DJ. There was a thing called Punk that spoke to those of us cleaning toilets to get through school at the time.
	♥ 4:42pm Adrian in London: Diana's hair is magnificent on that cover. And the tiger with the pearls in its teeth, haha!
	4:43pm Stephanie: Thanks for the shout out sheila b! Thumbs up for the Bee Gees too! So much happiness.
	♥ 4:43pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, this "Fool" brings me back. Rolling up endless numbers of D&D characters during middle school and tracks like this one in the background.
	♥ 4:45pm dale: need a little 70s soft rock after watching the tube today.
	4:45pm Slick Goldtooth: Good stuff, loving it. @djsheilab, I'm learning the tough endless struggle you had of trying to find Jacqueline Taieb's "7 Heures Du Matin", thought I found gold at a record swap I recently went to but it was just an empty somewhat scruffy looking sleeve the owner wanted $45 bucks for :/
	4:46pm Cheyenne: Thanks for the tunes, Sheila B. Music may not change the world but it definitely makes the place more bearable!
	♥ 4:46pm listener james from westwood: Whole lotta Gibbs goin' on in this set—yes!
	♥ 4:46pm Adrian in London: Hey @SHeilaB what's your Single of the Week this week? ;-)
	4:46pm The Contessa: Got a soft spot for all this falsetto business…
	4:47pm Rob Kopp: That Sweet & Hoffs cover of Run to me is on their first CD in the Under the covers-series (1 60's, 2 70's, 3 80's) and I love all of their covers of 60's songs.
	♥ 4:48pm Michael 98145: ( always thought "fanny pack" was a bit of a chortle :)
	4:48pm Keith from Oregon: Fanny was a great band!
	♥ 4:50pm Ken From Hyde Park: How to feel better about yourself: Step 1: Know that you are smarter than the president of the United States of America.
	4:50pm Old Dave: @dale- was the National Anthem a little forced, or are my ears betraying me?
	♥ 4:50pm A lump of mud: Thanks Ken!
	♥ 4:52pm Adrian in London: I bought this LP, in mint condition, for two pounds from a charity shop in East Grinstead last year, after Sheila played a track from it.
	♥ 4:55pm Michael 98145: * nice cover of this song *
	4:55pm chalmers: @Ken From Hyde Park: 1. Smarter. 2. Better read. 3. Have actual friends. 4. Laugh at least occasionally 5. Can let minor slights go.
	4:56pm JakeGould: Also folks, remember: Grizzly bears in the classroom.
	♥ 4:57pm Michael 98145: these are trying times .
	4:57pm jiepar: grease is the worrrrrrd
	♥ 4:57pm listener james from westwood: Holy damn, that "Deep" cover and this "Grease" one!
	♥ 4:58pm Michael 98145: grease is the way we are feeling .
	4:59pm Rob Kopp: @Slick Goldtooth: A couple of years ago there was a reissue with 7 heures du matin (French version) on the a-side and 7 AM (the English version) on the b-side. And 10 years ago she made an EP with Amsterdam Beatclub with 2 new versions: 7h du soir (French) and 7 PM (English)
	4:59pm Slick Goldtooth: If you need a chuckle, the midday BBC news radio report on today's event was pretty great. Especially when the Canadian defense minister got asked on what he thinks Trump would think on Trudeau and he kinda gives a cop out answer because it's too obvious how he really felt and wanted to say.
	5:00pm JasonInBoston: I really like this version of Grease and how it gives a nod to I Can't Stand the Rain with the little popping sounds in the background.
	5:00pm Slick Goldtooth: @Rob Oh snap, I had no idea. I'll definitely have to keep my eyes peeled.
	5:01pm Undead83: Wow, great show ^^
	5:04pm Cliff in Prague: Thanks for spoiling us Sheila! Off to bed now
	5:04pm Old Dave: Slick- I really like that Sikh Defense Minister guy. He is doing actual public service. The cabinet in Canada is 50 percent women. Hence, the whole country has escaped Trump's notice!
	♥ 5:05pm Michael 98145: Almost forgot -- Happy Birthday to David Lynch .
	♥ 5:06pm Adrian in London: Slick Goldsmith BBC World News accidentally put subtitles from a kids's show over the Trump inauguration speech and the results are marvellous twitter.com...
	♥ 5:07pm Michael 98145: The ACA has also benefited people relying on Medicaid
	5:07pm Carmichael: @Michael98145: How ironic is that? He couldn't have directed this day any better!
	5:08pm djsheilab: Here's a link to the Atul Gawande piece. It's SO great! www.newyorker.com...
	5:09pm Fox (Rā-chul): I recently read an article by a Lyme Disease doctor, and she said persistent Lyme Disease is disbelieved by many doctors and the people in patients' lives, who doubt the severity of the illness. She's seen many marriages dissolve over the issue, and many patients in a state of PTSD over trying to prove to others that they are ill. Just having someone BELIEVE that you are sick is a huge deal.
	5:10pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian. I guess Theresa May has to apologize to ... somebody
	5:11pm djsheilab: @Fox COMPLETELY! That's what struck me so much about this article. These people really care + are willing to put in the time with their patients, and it pays off!
	♥ 5:11pm dale: old dave - yeah, military chorus and musicians. i wish the armed forces didn't play so heavily into the pomp of it all. and there was no kenny goldsmith reading traffic reports so it was kind of a bust
	♥ 5:11pm Michael 98145: i'm a sucker for this habibi music
	5:11pm andrewb: I never war a disco sucks t-shirt but consider that disco came out along with punk. Punk to us kids felt raw and real as opposed to disco which always felt manufactured for a demanding market. Consider "Grease" added to the movie version. Pure post saturday night fever money grab and totally wrong for a period musical.
	5:12pm andrewb: wore
	5:12pm quietlyartistic: Wha? Sampling Jesus Christ Superstar? Far out!
	♥ 5:12pm dale: did ofra haza ever have a hit besides im nin alu?

	♥ 5:13pm JtotheK: hi sheilaB, hi boom-boomers. enjoying the program today.
	5:14pm Slick Goldtooth: @Fox, I know Kathleen Henna of Bikini Kill fame was diagnosed super late with late stage Lyme's Disease because a lot of doctors were unsure exactly what was wrong with her until well after the fact when a lot of damage was done. I know she's recovered now but it's pretty terrifying going so long with not knowing what is causing you a lot of pain.
	5:15pm Griff: Love Grazia.
	5:15pm JakeGould: Hey everybody! Deep breathing exercises help! Srsly!
	♥ 5:15pm dale: i only recently discovered the shangri-las song 'sophisticated boom boom' - i never knew

	♥ 5:19pm doctorjazz: Mavis, great!

	♥ 5:21pm listener james from westwood: Lovely stuff. this COTE. And I'm still not used to seeing 2017 as the date on a record! I just assume you've got a time machine.
	5:23pm djsheilab: @Carmichael Hmmmm....I wonder if it's the turntable, this is sounding sloooooow too.
	5:23pm Fox (Rā-chul): @Slick - Even if you DO know you've got Lyme it's a rough time. I've got some genetic health issues, and got Lyme Disease on top of that. I caught it within a few months, but I've got chronic migraines now, cognitive decline, and body pains. Seven years later I am still on anti-biotics, because without them, I get one long unrelenting headache. The moral of the story is: Don't go outside. Not ever.
	5:25pm Rob Kopp: J'ain rendez-vous of that EP is fantastic
