Listener comments!
	🛎 12:00pm βrian: Slipped in through the milk door.
	12:01pm Sem: Came in through the bathroom window. Hello, Mary, βrian, whoever, wherever.
	12:04pm Mary Wing: Hi there Brian and Sem! I check Ken's playlist every week now, since I seem to subconsciously be on the same wavelenth as him in terms of musical selections, and sure enough, he played an artist that I was planning on playing! Sheeesh! Now I just have to hope that I don't copy Duane either, heh.
	🛎 12:08pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Mary and people where it's sno-wing! You could fix that by moving to Tuesdays, but then risk doubling up on Garbage Time artists.
	12:10pm coelacanth∅: greetings Mary and all
	12:11pm Mary Wing: Hey there Ken and coelacanth! I can't move to Tuesdays, there's no room for me there!
	🛎 12:13pm βrian: Mondays are wide open, though.
	12:13pm coelacanth∅: wednesday's the perfect place for you.
	12:17pm Mary Wing: I'd like to think so!
	🛎 12:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: Whatever Tuesday? Whatever Thursday? No, just lacks the pleasant rhythm of Whatever Wednesday.
	12:24pm coelacanth∅: speaking for myself but i'm sure some others, i can say there's little conflict in choosing which wfmu to listen to on wednesday. if i'm in the mood for Duane's show i'm probably not in the mood for Mary's, and vice-versa. wed night is another story. 2 great shows on the main,drummer & ichiban streams.
	🛎 12:26pm βrian: I find that I wander on Monday afternoons.
	12:27pm coelacanth∅: ...that is to say - 2 very different shows, usually. like on friday i have to choose between 2 shows i like both, but i'm either in the mood for Bryce or in the mood for Uncle Michael. not likely both. -not a conflict.
	12:27pm Mary Wing: You moody fellow, coela. :-)
	12:28pm coelacanth∅: hmm
	🛎 12:28pm βrian: Bryce can be a bit of a sadist. But when he's good, he's so very good.
	12:30pm Tiago from Portugal: Hi Mary and all.
	12:32pm coelacanth∅: Bryce rarely plays something i don't like, but sometimes it's just not where i'm at. just me. i also am repulsed by certain artists that are very popular on wfmu. ...if i ever like all music, please kill me.
	12:35pm Mary Wing: Greetings Tiago, thanks for joining us today!
	🛎 12:35pm βrian: The cat just went airborne.
	12:44pm northguineahills: Ladytron? Yes it is!
	12:47pm Mary Wing: Hi NGH! Always a good time for Ladytron in my book.
	12:52pm Mary Wing: Please help me figure out what other song this sounds like. It's killing me!
	12:52pm rbrt: lol! I was trying to figure this out too, I feel like I've heard something similar to this
	12:56pm Mary Wing: Howdy rbrt, it's so annoying!
	12:56pm fleep: My Figurator is in the shop, can't help ya.
	12:57pm rbrt: howdy!
	1:03pm maestroso: From LastFM: Tartu Popi ja Roki Instituut is an indie-pop band from Estonia. They play 60s and 70s melodies. that's a clue. I know that melody too.
	1:04pm coelacanth∅: play it again i was in conversation for the whole song. (i probably don't know anyway)
	1:06pm coelacanth∅: at the zoo, maybe?
	1:06pm northguineahills: Hey, in Newfoundland, India, Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, Myanmar, Cocos Islands, French Polynesia, Marques Islands, and parts of Australia, it's not at the top of the hour (the aforementioned are either 30 or 45 minutes of from the UTC whole hour)
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: (i just remembered i'm using realplayer, so i could back up and listen to it)
	1:12pm coelacanth∅: "swlabr" by cream -there's one
	1:12pm fleep: Assumes the New Age Music Position
	1:13pm coelacanth∅: (Enya, originally spelled "Aine" and pronounced "ahn-ya")
	1:14pm northguineahills: Who knew a song about a river in Venezuela would become so popular???
	1:16pm Mary Wing: Hi fleep and maestroso! Yes, maybe it is "At The Zoo," coela! Will listen later to check.
	1:16pm fleep: The overdubs still give me shivers, it's such a angelic sound.
	1:17pm coelacanth∅: if i make a song about the wallkill river, near me, and how if someone with dreads, and her dog, swim in it you no longer want them in your bed with you? will that be a hit?
	1:18pm doctorjazz: Hi all, listening, too busy to post, enjoying the sounds!
	1:18pm coelacanth∅: (because of the smell)
	1:20pm Mary Wing: Hey there, doctorjazz! Remember: I need songs with spelling in them, all suggestions gladly accepted!
	1:21pm Dean: Spelling, as in C-A-T, or spelling, as in, "Double, double, toil and trouble"?
	1:22pm coelacanth∅: so, (i'm sorry but i only caught the end of your request) you want acronyms, or abbreviations?
	1:22pm fleep: Bo Diddley - I'm a man, has spelling in it
	1:22pm KevinfromBayRidge: Howdy Whatevers. Mary, now that you've commenced this wonderful "3oaK", I can't leave earshot range of my radio!
	1:23pm Mary Wing: Spelling as in G-L-O-R-I-A, not witchcraft, heh.
	1:23pm david w: Everybody is buzzing today, nice to see!
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: h-a-t-r-e-d by Tonio K
	1:23pm Mary Wing: As long as it's spelled out, acronyms and abbreviations are okay.
	1:24pm fleep: Not sure about this tinkertoy version, the Libera was decent
	1:24pm Mary Wing: Hi Dean, Kevin, and David! Welcome to Wednesday Whatever in all it's weirdness!
	1:26pm coelacanth∅: Mary on the www. (the weird wednesday whatever)
	🛎 1:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Does "ABC" from The Jackson 5 qualify?
	1:27pm Dean: Country Joe & the Fish, naturally.
	1:29pm Dean: For minimalism, there's Van der Graaf Generator's "W." A pun, but still.
	1:29pm coelacanth∅: shangri-las give him a great big kiss
	1:30pm Dean: And New York Dolls' "Looking for a Kiss," copping the Shangri-La's.
	1:31pm Roberto: Oh my. This...
	1:31pm fleep: Yeah.
	1:32pm rbrt: Was not expecting this one lol
	1:32pm Mary Wing: Yeah.
	1:32pm coelacanth∅: hahaha who wulda thunk!
	1:32pm Roberto: I'm torn between running away screaming and clicking the star.
	1:32pm northguineahills: well, it's a creative take on the original....
	1:33pm KevinfromBayRidge: This Orinoco is flowing in a whole different direction!
	1:33pm rbrt: haha Roberto...I'm clicking
	1:33pm Roberto: Star it is.
	1:34pm Dean: Hmmm, if the lyrics refer to "D.J.," is that spelling?
	1:34pm Mary Wing: 6 stars, I cannae believe it!!
	1:35pm northguineahills: Man, Von Sudenfeld seems so recent. RIP MES!
	1:36pm steveo: M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
	1:36pm Tiago from Portugal: @KevinfromBayRidge: I think it was overflowing
	1:37pm steveo: was hoping this was somehow an enya cover
	1:39pm Dean: Sex Pistols, "EMI."
	1:39pm Mary Wing: Hi there, Dean and steveo!
	🛎 1:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Give me a few minutes to see if KMFDM has anything in their discography.
	1:41pm coelacanth∅: (didn't d.o.a. do a song called "d.o.a."?)
	1:42pm steveo: HI!
	1:43pm coelacanth∅: ...and obviously the divorce song by Dolly Parton; but you could use the circle jerks' "golden shower hit" instead, which has that spelling out within it.
	1:46pm Mary Wing: Love the Golden Shower Of Hits song, I bought the 7" when it came out!
	1:49pm northguineahills: I believe they did, coel.
	1:49pm coelacanth∅: it's hilarious! first heard it on Paul Cavenaugh's show, wfmu c.1984. still have the cassette recording off the radio.
	1:50pm coelacanth∅: (Paul Cavenaugh, rest in peace)
	🛎 1:52pm Ken From Hyde Park: KMFDM's "D.I.Y."
	1:54pm coelacanth∅: oh yeah - Peter Gabriel also has a "diy".
	1:57pm Mary Wing: Acronyms are fine, but how about some actual words spelled out?
	1:58pm Dean: Wire's "12xu." I know, not an actual word.
	2:00pm steveo: hollaback girl Let me hear you say, this shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! This shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! Again this shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! This shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S!
	2:01pm Mary Wing: Nice one, steveo!
	2:01pm Dean: Lord, yes, @steveo! That's a great example, and a great song, too.
	2:02pm fleep: Um www.songfacts.com...
	2:03pm steveo: i woke up on Monday morning with this bed track stuck in my head!
	2:04pm Mary Wing: That's cool, coela, but as I have found, many of songs like those don't actually spell out anything in the song.
	2:04pm steveo: that's no fish -- I spy a blowhole!
	2:05pm steveo: oh was looking at fleep haha
	2:06pm fleep: The important thing is trying. And googling.
	2:07pm Dean: Another not-quite-a-word, "TVC15."
	2:08pm northguineahills: I've found many records in the trash.
	🛎 2:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: I recall having an ocorina when I was small. It may have been a Cracker Jack prize.
	2:12pm βrian: Are these long lists a requirement?
	🛎 2:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Zats ... ocarina, I meant.
	2:14pm Ike: Rancho Thatchmo is a good show, like this show! Well, actually not much like this show... in terms of material. I mean, similarly good quality, dammit!
	2:16pm Mary Wing: Ike! Glad you're here for the last hour, which could go anywhere, frankly.
	2:16pm Dean: Modern Lovers, "Girlfriend": g-i-r-l-f-r-e-n
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: That's the best one, @Dean. Hi, Mary, and Whateverines.
	2:21pm Mary Wing: Hey there, Jeff!
	2:29pm Jeff Golick: There's a girl group answer song to "Gloria" out there, where they spell out his name. Can't remember what it is, though. "Sheldon?" Also: Janet's "Miss You Much"; "Word Up" ...
	2:30pm Mary Wing: Heh, I think the name was Melvin.
	2:30pm Parq: Yes, Melvin. One of my favorite off-mainstream records.
	2:31pm Dean: The "lyrics" for Cage's "Four2" consist exclusively of the letters comprising the word "Oregon," though I don't think they are ever recited in order.
	2:31pm Jeff Golick: Oh, yeah. Melvin! "Cheese and Onions." Pardon me if you've covered all of these already; I joined while the show was already underway...
	2:32pm Mary Wing: Hiya Parq! I need a clean-sounding recording of Cheese and Onions, actually...
	2:32pm Dean: Even better, @Jeff G.!
	2:34pm Jeff Golick: A 45 of "Melvin" went for $500 a little while ago, it seems: www.popsike.com...
	2:34pm Mary Wing: And a clean-sounding recording of YMCA, heh. My record is too scratchy!
	2:35pm coelacanth∅: ymca doesn't spell anything out!
	2:35pm Parq: Great live version of "Dance", also a favorite.
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: (3 of my 4 suggestions do, btw)
	2:36pm Roberto: Tacoleh!
	2:38pm Parq: Hee. I remembered this "Ritz" cover but forgot about the vocoded "Super-duper" until I heard it, and then I remembered that it was my favorite thing about the record.
	2:39pm Listener Bob in PGH: Vocoded "super-duper" is indeed the best part. Whenever I hear this song I lip-sync that part!
	2:40pm Mary Wing: Heh heh. Hi Bob! It's confession time, evidently!
	2:41pm ⓔⓘⓚ: Don't be fooled: I've been lurking for a while! Not the whole time though. Also, "Ritz" was my favorite song when I was 7 and paid absolutely no attention to most music.
	2:41pm Listener Bob in PGH: Confession time? Why, whatever do you mean?!?!?!
	2:42pm Mary Wing: This secret love of Taco, I mean.
	2:47pm rbrt: too uptight!
	2:47pm βrian: Taco, Flauta. .. So many loves.
	2:48pm Mary Wing: My love of burritos is no secret, for sure.
	2:48pm Listener Bob in PGH: I make no secret of my love of Taco(s)
	2:49pm northguineahills: I have to make an effort not to make tacos.
	2:49pm Listener Bob in PGH: You can tell lovers of burritos from a mile away!
	🛎 2:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: Putting a store-bought frozen burrito in the toaster oven right now!
	2:51pm northguineahills: Today, in this effort, I'm going to pick up a Korean noodle salad instead. Thanks Mary!
	2:51pm Mary Wing: <jealous>
	2:52pm northguineahills: Don't have time to make tacos.
	2:54pm Sem: Been attentive whilst crunching some recalcitrant numbers. Thank you, Mary. You have the best whatevers, ever. See you and all next time round.
	2:55pm Parq: MW at 2:48 -- I am embarrassed to admit, up until today, I thought that was a record by Falco, he of "Der Commissar" fame.
	2:55pm Mary Wing: Bah!!
	2:59pm βrian: Mary Wing-Ding. Thanks.
	3:00pm rbrt: Have a good week Mary! and everyone!
	3:00pm Mary Wing: Thanks one and all, see you next week! Don't forget about spelling songs!
	3:11pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Mary!

	1:23pm david w: Everybody is buzzing today, nice to see!
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: h-a-t-r-e-d by Tonio K
	1:23pm Mary Wing: As long as it's spelled out, acronyms and abbreviations are okay.

	🛎 1:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Does "ABC" from The Jackson 5 qualify?
	1:27pm Dean: Country Joe & the Fish, naturally.

	1:32pm Roberto: I'm torn between running away screaming and clicking the star.
	1:32pm northguineahills: well, it's a creative take on the original....
	1:33pm KevinfromBayRidge: This Orinoco is flowing in a whole different direction!
	1:33pm rbrt: haha Roberto...I'm clicking

	1:39pm Dean: Sex Pistols, "EMI."
	1:39pm Mary Wing: Hi there, Dean and steveo!
	🛎 1:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Give me a few minutes to see if KMFDM has anything in their discography.
	1:41pm coelacanth∅: (didn't d.o.a. do a song called "d.o.a."?)
	1:42pm steveo: HI!
	1:43pm coelacanth∅: ...and obviously the divorce song by Dolly Parton; but you could use the circle jerks' "golden shower hit" instead, which has that spelling out within it.
	1:46pm Mary Wing: Love the Golden Shower Of Hits song, I bought the 7" when it came out!
	1:49pm northguineahills: I believe they did, coel.
	1:49pm coelacanth∅: it's hilarious! first heard it on Paul Cavenaugh's show, wfmu c.1984. still have the cassette recording off the radio.
	1:50pm coelacanth∅: (Paul Cavenaugh, rest in peace)
	🛎 1:52pm Ken From Hyde Park: KMFDM's "D.I.Y."
	1:54pm coelacanth∅: oh yeah - Peter Gabriel also has a "diy".
	1:57pm Mary Wing: Acronyms are fine, but how about some actual words spelled out?
	1:58pm Dean: Wire's "12xu." I know, not an actual word.
	2:00pm steveo: hollaback girl Let me hear you say, this shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! This shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! Again this shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! This shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S!
	2:01pm Mary Wing: Nice one, steveo!
	2:01pm Dean: Lord, yes, @steveo! That's a great example, and a great song, too.
	2:02pm fleep: Um www.songfacts.com...
	2:03pm steveo: i woke up on Monday morning with this bed track stuck in my head!
	2:04pm Mary Wing: That's cool, coela, but as I have found, many of songs like those don't actually spell out anything in the song.
	2:04pm steveo: that's no fish -- I spy a blowhole!
	2:05pm steveo: oh was looking at fleep haha
	2:06pm fleep: The important thing is trying. And googling.
	2:07pm Dean: Another not-quite-a-word, "TVC15."
	2:08pm northguineahills: I've found many records in the trash.
	🛎 2:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: I recall having an ocorina when I was small. It may have been a Cracker Jack prize.
	2:12pm βrian: Are these long lists a requirement?
	🛎 2:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Zats ... ocarina, I meant.
	2:14pm Ike: Rancho Thatchmo is a good show, like this show! Well, actually not much like this show... in terms of material. I mean, similarly good quality, dammit!
	2:16pm Mary Wing: Ike! Glad you're here for the last hour, which could go anywhere, frankly.
	2:16pm Dean: Modern Lovers, "Girlfriend": g-i-r-l-f-r-e-n
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: That's the best one, @Dean. Hi, Mary, and Whateverines.
	2:21pm Mary Wing: Hey there, Jeff!
	2:29pm Jeff Golick: There's a girl group answer song to "Gloria" out there, where they spell out his name. Can't remember what it is, though. "Sheldon?" Also: Janet's "Miss You Much"; "Word Up" ...
	2:30pm Mary Wing: Heh, I think the name was Melvin.
	2:30pm Parq: Yes, Melvin. One of my favorite off-mainstream records.
	2:31pm Dean: The "lyrics" for Cage's "Four2" consist exclusively of the letters comprising the word "Oregon," though I don't think they are ever recited in order.
	2:31pm Jeff Golick: Oh, yeah. Melvin! "Cheese and Onions." Pardon me if you've covered all of these already; I joined while the show was already underway...
	2:32pm Mary Wing: Hiya Parq! I need a clean-sounding recording of Cheese and Onions, actually...
	2:32pm Dean: Even better, @Jeff G.!
	2:34pm Jeff Golick: A 45 of "Melvin" went for $500 a little while ago, it seems: www.popsike.com...
	2:34pm Mary Wing: And a clean-sounding recording of YMCA, heh. My record is too scratchy!
	2:35pm coelacanth∅: ymca doesn't spell anything out!
	2:35pm Parq: Great live version of "Dance", also a favorite.
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: (3 of my 4 suggestions do, btw)
	2:36pm Roberto: Tacoleh!
	2:38pm Parq: Hee. I remembered this "Ritz" cover but forgot about the vocoded "Super-duper" until I heard it, and then I remembered that it was my favorite thing about the record.
	2:39pm Listener Bob in PGH: Vocoded "super-duper" is indeed the best part. Whenever I hear this song I lip-sync that part!
	2:40pm Mary Wing: Heh heh. Hi Bob! It's confession time, evidently!
	2:41pm ⓔⓘⓚ: Don't be fooled: I've been lurking for a while! Not the whole time though. Also, "Ritz" was my favorite song when I was 7 and paid absolutely no attention to most music.
	2:41pm Listener Bob in PGH: Confession time? Why, whatever do you mean?!?!?!
	2:42pm Mary Wing: This secret love of Taco, I mean.
	2:47pm rbrt: too uptight!
	2:47pm βrian: Taco, Flauta. .. So many loves.
	2:48pm Mary Wing: My love of burritos is no secret, for sure.
	2:48pm Listener Bob in PGH: I make no secret of my love of Taco(s)
	2:49pm northguineahills: I have to make an effort not to make tacos.
	2:49pm Listener Bob in PGH: You can tell lovers of burritos from a mile away!
	🛎 2:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: Putting a store-bought frozen burrito in the toaster oven right now!
	2:51pm northguineahills: Today, in this effort, I'm going to pick up a Korean noodle salad instead. Thanks Mary!
	2:51pm Mary Wing: <jealous>
	2:52pm northguineahills: Don't have time to make tacos.
	2:54pm Sem: Been attentive whilst crunching some recalcitrant numbers. Thank you, Mary. You have the best whatevers, ever. See you and all next time round.
	2:55pm Parq: MW at 2:48 -- I am embarrassed to admit, up until today, I thought that was a record by Falco, he of "Der Commissar" fame.
	2:55pm Mary Wing: Bah!!
	2:59pm βrian: Mary Wing-Ding. Thanks.
	3:00pm rbrt: Have a good week Mary! and everyone!
	3:00pm Mary Wing: Thanks one and all, see you next week! Don't forget about spelling songs!
	3:11pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Mary!
