	3:09pm John from Florham park: @Handy was a little busy today and was too busy t I listen
	♥ 3:10pm loveless: @John from Floral Park Ain’t that the truth!
	3:10pm michael z: I have never heard this. I thought I knew all of Serge’s work and a lot of Nico’s. What a find.
	♥ 3:10pm The Oscar: WHOA-- did not know Nico and Serge ever collaborated!
	♥ 3:10pm Guido from Cologne: Nico!
	♥ 3:10pm Cooh John: Agree with you, John from Florham park. My happy place.
	♥ 3:11pm Handy Haversack: I can be productive during Bryce's show. Sheila B's grooves make me wish I was home with the volume cranked and a drink in hand. Which I'll achieve for the last half hour of the show ...
	3:11pm William Main: I think excerpts of the Nico film Sweet Skin is available on Youtube.
	3:11pm michael z: She has never sounded more seductive. It isn’t on any of the compilations I have seen of girls Serge recorded.
	3:11pm Eric from Lake Hiawatha: Live in the middle of an ER! Thank you
	3:11pm P-90: This first set is a delightful box of bon bons. Magnifique!
	3:11pm Daybreak and the very late night!: A nudity free set?!? Why? Why?
	3:12pm Rob Kopp: @Mike Z: Striptease was also done by Juliette Greco and by Mick Harvey & Andrea Schroeder
	3:12pm John from Florham park: @Loveless have given up on commercial rock radio for this fine station
	3:13pm John from Florham park: @Daybreak long time no see on here
	3:13pm michael z: Thanks Rob. I had heard it but never by Nico. I did not know she could be so playful.
	3:14pm Daybreak and the very late night!: Me too John from FP! I don’t even want to be a teacher who rocks from WDHA. I want to be a teacher who is weird from WFMU
	3:14pm northguineahills: We need some more phantasmal funk in our lives...!
	3:15pm Daybreak and the very late night!: I know John, I miss you too man! Being on the Wake chat was making me late to work too many times, so I’m trying to get on when I can in the evening on other shows. It is really nice to run into people from there all throughout the rest of the day! Hope you had a good Friday so far brother!
	3:16pm djsheilab: Welcome music luvvvvvers!
	3:16pm John from Florham park: Daybreak amen grew up on that station back in the day , but prefer this wierd and wonderful station
	3:17pm Neil in Somerset: I love the first Maki Asakawa album. There's a bar in Tokyo that plays only her music apparently.
	3:17pm Daybreak and the very late night!: Thanks for being here for us every Friday Sheila! It means one hell of a lot to me! Also listeners, if you don’t follow Sheila on Twitter you should do so just to see her triumphant Twitter photo.
	3:17pm John from Florham park: @Daybreak understandable, like I told you once before the accu is very addictive
	♥ 3:18pm Guido from Cologne: Patti Pravo bringing the flashbacks.
	3:22pm iiibeat: This show has been totally pumping the jams lately!!
	♥ 3:23pm frozen_peas: I LOVE this song
	♥ 3:24pm listener james from westwood: 80s dance classic! They didn't like this being played at Catholic high school dances b/c of the skinny-dipping and "cherry wine."
	3:25pm michael z: It’s a perfect way to end the set. You are brilliant Sheila.
	3:25pm Neil in Somerset: You should've gone with it. Great track.
	3:25pm djsheilab: Had to be done! And what FUN to blast this out of WFMU HQ!
	3:25pm northguineahills: Either you or some else played this Jermaine Stewart track before...... Otherwise, I hadn't heard it since the fourth grade...
	3:25pm P-90: 80’s flashback, like TOTALLY
	♥ 3:25pm Matt Fiveash: This was a big hit my freshman year in high school.
	3:26pm Julie: man I love Saint Etienne
	3:26pm queems: oh HELL YES this one’s on my ipod
	3:26pm Vanessa Tara: ahh, back to high school ... hiya sheila!
	♥ 3:26pm mysilentface: Hello Sheila! We can dance and party and drink some cherry wine!
	♥ 3:26pm Handy Haversack: Pretty sure Kate's done this at karaoke.
	3:27pm John from Florham park: @julie howdy @Queems howdy
	3:27pm queems: howdy @john!
	3:27pm Frank Zaatar: Actually, the only thing I like about this song is the song.
	♥ 3:28pm Matt Fiveash: Actually, and I can't believe I remember this, Jermaine Stewart's big hit was "The Word Is Out".
	3:29pm michael z: What’s really special is the joy and innocence to that set. So happy you are giddy Sheila.
	♥ 3:29pm mariano: Wait, there are TONS of records from Latin America from the 60s and 70s with nude women on the cover, one of the most vivid memories of my childhood in Honduras!
	♥ 3:30pm The Oscar: I like to imagine he's talking about the southern-based soda Cheerwine.
	3:30pm ncjay: Cherry Kijafa. 1971.
	♥ 3:31pm Travisano66: Sheila: I got a bottle of cherry wine for Christmas one year. It was a specific request. Didn't know if it existed, but apparently it did. -Philip
	3:32pm Frank Zaatar: But you know there's only one bottle of Cherry Kijafa in existence. It just gets regifted from one house to another.
	♥ 3:33pm mariano: *Definitely NSFW!* lpcoverlover.com...
	3:33pm Briguy: Boone's Farm Wild Cherry. Not drinking that ever again may be one of the two things I learned in college.
	♥ 3:35pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, @mariano, the chat box cuts off the telling part of that URL!
	3:39pm Carmichael: Wow, I came in at just the right song! Heya Sheila and those in the boom boom room.
	♥ 3:39pm listener james from westwood: This absolute gem of a Lu track!
	3:40pm djsheilab: A now an EPIC during which I can say hello to you all! Hey Handy Haversack, Briguy, Frank Zaatar, P-90, Guido from Cologne, ncjay, romandogbird, Jocelyn, dreamyandseedy, John from Florham Park, Phillippe Bastille, Rob Kopp, Hubig Pie!
	3:40pm djsheilab: Michael Z! Thanks for all your lovely comments :)
	3:41pm Briguy: Was listening to this Lu track on my run around Prospect Park at 4:45 this morning. It's been a long day, but it's now come full circle! And yes, big boys DO cry!!!
	3:42pm djsheilab: Hey The Oscar, SSS, steveo, Cooh John, GI Jeff, listener james from westwood, William Main, Dominick, mmeghan, loveless, battleaxe, Manana, Daybreak and the very late night!, Eric from Lake Hiawatha!
	3:43pm djsheilab: Hey Neil in Somerset, northguineahills, iiibeat, frozen_peas, Vanessa Tara, mysilentface, queems, Travisano66, mariano + MATT FIVEASH!!!
	♥ 3:44pm Guido from Cologne: Did that Kelsey Lu ever have been released in physical form?
	3:45pm Russt44: A daunting task to even think about revisiting 10CC. but it has merit. They didnt stray to far. . The original is holy ground
	♥ 3:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, Sheila and accompaniment. Welcome, Year of the Rat.
	3:48pm Julie: Well ain't you teacher's pet, FIVEASH
	3:48pm romandogbird: YEAH
	3:49pm djsheilab: Julie—Haha! He gets all caps cos of his newfound Lizzo affection :)
	3:49pm djsheilab: Russt44! Just in time for something you introduced me to :)
	♥ 3:50pm Matt Fiveash: I got ALL CAPS
	3:50pm djsheilab: Hey Carmichael!
	♥ 3:50pm Matt Fiveash: WHY ARE WE SHOUTING
	♥ 3:51pm mariano: @Handy: not to belabor the point, but it's lpcoverlover.com... - just write "nudes" after the last slash.
	3:51pm djsheilab: Matt Fiveash—ONE NEEDS TO SHOUT OVER MBV!
	♥ 3:51pm Michael 98145: { rushes in, grabs a seat directly in front of the speaker cabinet } ✔ whew
	♥ 3:51pm Handy Haversack: Arrrgh, we are approaching the worst/best part of Friday! I get to go home and listen to SBB cranked up and with full relaxation protocols engaged -- but I have to miss like 45 mins. of SBB in order to do so! MAKES ME WANNA SHOUT!! (Esp. MBV!)
	♥ 3:52pm Michael 98145: { thank goodness for archives }
	♥ 3:53pm Cooh John: Kids are sleeping or I would have cranked up the JBL 4311's.
	♥ 3:53pm Handy Haversack: (@Mariano, I know -- just thought it was funny that on my view the chat box dot-dot-dotted the "offensive" word.)
	♥ 3:54pm admiral crisp: one of the many reason's I love SBB is because I get out of work at 3 so if it's on then it's officially the weekend!
	♥ 3:56pm Passaic River Blues: I love the name Aoife.
	3:58pm mmeghan: this song!! my heart!!!ugh i love it so much
	3:58pm Russt44: Thank you for playing this record.
	3:59pm Vanessa Tara: love this whole album and the one with donny hathaway
	♥ 4:01pm karlward: I contend there is no limit to how much Roberta Flack is needed in the world.
	4:02pm Vanessa Tara: right on!
	4:03pm JakeGould: Hey Sheila! Nice “My Bloody Valentine” placement.
	4:04pm debt collector: Love from Burlington VT. You’re the best.
	♥ 4:04pm Michael 98145: essential radio
	♥ 4:05pm mariano: Very true, Shiela: even without writing anything, it does wonders for my mood to just sit with my guitar for 20 minutes and meanderingly play.
	4:05pm JakeGould: And… Yes! Congrats on transitioning into the realm of being a creator! Maze too, Sheila!
	4:05pm michael z: Dear Sheila, I know you are goi g to write a great song.
	4:05pm JakeGould: MAZEL TOV! Damn stupid spellcheck.
	4:05pm mmeghan: that is amazing sheila!! congratulations on your creative journey :)
	4:06pm John from Florham park: @Sheliab can’t wait to hear your songs, it will be good
	4:06pm Briguyhere: Love love love that raw moment! Now we all want to know what you’re writing. But really we’re just happy that you’re happy :)
	4:06pm don_laine: Proudayou sheila!
	♥ 4:06pm mariano: I kinda like Maze Too, Jake ;)
	♥ 4:06pm Handy Haversack: I'm doing it. Will be back as soon as I can. Can't wait for your song, SB! To the river!
	♥ 4:07pm diciassette: yay Japanese Girl!
	♥ 4:07pm mariano: Later, Handy!
	4:07pm Chud: This version of Tong Poo is amazing!
	4:08pm brainiac: I say let's take back slowdive. It isn't just for kids anymore.
	4:08pm djsheilab: Thanks for your lovely comments, friends!
	♥ 4:09pm Michael 98145: we do want sounds
	♥ 4:10pm The Oscar: Agreed-- there is nothing like channeling one's creative energy, and also nothing like humanity in radio. Congrats :)
	4:10pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila: This could be something for you. Every year Ray Davies, one of the best songwriters in the world I know, is doing a songwriting course. For 16 students only. I did that course in 2001 and it has been one of the great experiences in my life. It's not necessary that you have been writing. I only had written one song before I went there. You have to write (and perform) 2 songs a day.
	4:11pm Carmichael: @michael@3:50, I stood in front of the stage cabinets at a Steppenwolf concert. My ears are still ringing.
	4:13pm John from Florham park: @Robb that is great for ray to do, imparting his knowledge about song writing
	♥ 4:16pm Michael 98145: @carm, i'm amazed i'm not deaf by now
	4:17pm Monica: hola, lady! mizz roberta was indeed sublime - not unlike our hostess:)
	4:17pm Rob Kopp: @John: He is still doing it every year. I wrote about my week here on a Kinks mailing list: kindakinks.net...
	♥ 4:18pm Dominick: lovin' this
	4:20pm Eric from Lake Hiawatha: You have outdone yourself today, compelling
	4:20pm michael z: What an excellent songwriting lesson.
	4:23pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Thanks for sharing about your Ray Davies songwriting course. Must've been very exciting for you to learn from the best!
	4:23pm John from Florham park: @Robb interesting thanks
	4:23pm Vanessa Tara: love this and the marvelettes version
	♥ 4:24pm mariano: That's great, Rob Kopp - I've always been in awe of Ray Davies.
	4:24pm djsheilab: You spoiling me, Monica! :)
	4:26pm Rob Kopp: @Shelia: It was, but you don't have to be a Kinks fan. One of the other students was an opera singer who had won the course. She hadn't the slightest idea who Ray Davies was.
	♥ 4:33pm Michael 98145: whoa
	4:35pm djsheilab: Michael 98145—Woah is right! Where has this been all my life? So delicate, so much feeling.
	♥ 4:37pm Passaic River Blues: Gorgeous.
	4:37pm Rob Kopp: indeed
	♥ 4:37pm Michael 98145: i love this genre of song
	♥ 4:38pm Tome: wonderful to be here ,, Sheilab ,, wow indeed sweet Voice !<>! I'm melting !<>!
	4:38pm djsheilab: Ahhhh....I just live for when you guys comment about the songs that move you. Thanks!
	4:40pm Rob Kopp: but what is a playback singer?
	♥ 4:41pm Michael 98145: @Rob K, typically from South Asian film soundtracks
	♥ 4:42pm Guido from Cologne: the cover! Hahahaha!
	♥ 4:43pm Michael 98145: usually an actress mouths the words of the songs
	♥ 4:43pm Cooh John: Feet are moving...
	4:43pm Rob Kopp: @Michael. I just found the explanation on Google. She is singing, someone else is playbacking
	♥ 4:45pm Michael 98145: yup
	♥ 4:46pm Michael 98145: what a great show today. of course.
	4:46pm Briguyhere: Most fun song ever!!!
	4:47pm Rob Kopp: Bonnie StClaire
	4:47pm Big Adam: My baby daughter was listening to her first Sophisticated BoomBoom show and successfully rolled over onto her belly in front of me for the first time - all the good vibes today worked! Doing my part to get the next generation to listen to good music -
	♥ 4:47pm Cooh John: Hips moving...
	♥ 4:47pm Guido from Cologne: You cannot go wrong with some female fronted NederBeat! :-9
	4:48pm Rob Kopp: indeed
	♥ 4:49pm Cooh John: Gots the Flirtations, "Nothing But a Heartache" vibe.
	4:49pm Daybreak and the very late night!: Killer song! It has me walking FAST!!!
	4:49pm michael z: Bonny St Claire sounds so cool. And it looks like this is the B side!!!
	4:50pm Rob Kopp: There's a reissue with Tame me tiger on the other side
	♥ 4:50pm Guido from Cologne: flipsides often are the superior
	♥ 4:51pm Guido from Cologne: artist can be what they are on the flip while the a-side is what the managers think would become a hit
	4:53pm djsheilab: Elements of "Bang Bang" in this record!
	4:55pm brainiac: If Cher sang Fado
	4:56pm queems: YESSSSSSSSS
	4:56pm P-90: That was awesome.
	4:57pm listener james from westwood: Floor-filler Kylie cut!!
	4:57pm Briguyhere: Sweet transition !
	♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: Made it back! Still in the groove!
	♥ 4:58pm Cooh John: Arms pumpin' and head boppin'
	4:58pm P-90: Sophisticated Segue of the week...?
	5:00pm queems: this song hasn’t aged a day
	♥ 5:00pm Handy Haversack: Kylie twice in two days after not hearing her in ... I have no idea how long.
	5:00pm queems: i had that song on napster when i was 12
	♥ 5:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: A Kylie Minogue song was on Julie's Australia show yesterday. Had fun chatting with Anna Copa Cabanna on the show, too. I don't think she cares much for bulldog ants, it would appear.
	5:02pm John from Florham park: @KFHP that was a great show yesterday
	5:02pm northguineahills: I had an uber driver in NYC that Kylie Minogue videos playing... (a long time ago....)
	♥ 5:03pm Handy Haversack: @KFHP and JFFP, that was a blast. But a lot of different animals really took it on the chin! Apparently only koalas get the love ...
	5:04pm Mike Wolf: Just re-tuned in — what happy French pop band is in our midst, SB??
	5:04pm Mike Wolf: L’Imperatrice?
	5:04pm William Main: Would like to hear more about your criteria for good song vs. bad song. Or would you say "I cant explain but I know it when I hear it?"
	5:05pm djsheilab: Mike Wolf—L'Imperatrice!
	5:06pm John from Florham park: @Handy I know but o am sure it will be corrected
	5:09pm michael z: When your show ends I am going to listen to this album. Thanks for being so current Sheila.
	♥ 5:10pm Guido from Cologne: A great sound-bed for Kadhja Bonet's voice.
	5:11pm Julie: Definitely going to have Anna back on radio, I think she's good at it like she is everything
	♥ 5:11pm Handy Haversack: It was a really fun show, Julie. Was glad to catch it.
	5:12pm djsheilab: FMU Julie! I didn't realize that was you. Hey! Glad the show with Anna went well. She's such a star.
	5:12pm Julie: Kylie also had a hit with Lucky didn't she? I should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky. I sing that to my bird (Lucky)
	5:12pm Vanessa Tara: this is great!
	♥ 5:14pm Michael 98145: (Julie is another of our radio stars ... ) :)
	5:15pm Jett: djsheilab forever! ❤️
	5:16pm djsheilab: Julie—Yeah that was super catchy. And her cover of the Locomotion!
	5:16pm P-90: This Divine is divine.
	5:17pm djsheilab: Oops...it's spelled "Devine," but we'll stick with Divine :)
	♥ 5:22pm Ike: Ah, Sneaker Pimps. One of those good bands with a terrible, terrible name.
	5:22pm Jett: Thought you would have chosen the Nina Simone version of Jimmy Webb's "Do What You Gotta Do," Roberta's version is okay also.
	5:23pm ncjay: Kelli Ali has a number of good solo albums too
	♥ 5:23pm Handy Haversack: Was just thinking that, @Ike. Like Viagra Boys.
	5:24pm djsheilab: Viagara Boys + Sneaker Pimps. TRULY awful names.
	5:24pm Jett: Bobbie Gentry is great!
	♥ 5:24pm Ike: I'm sure some DJ could do a whole WFMU marathon premium out of those, @Handy! Assuming nobody has done it already.
	♥ 5:25pm Handy Haversack: Ha! Good call! Submit it to the Overmind!
	5:25pm charlie brown: Better Kylie than Madonna. I enjoyed that tune, but I am kinda high right now.
	5:26pm Dr. Goot: Great Show, Sheila. Digging the Gentry!
	♥ 5:27pm Ike: Oh, there are articles about this! www.pastemagazine.com... However, I disagree strongly with this writer. I think King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is a fantastic name! However, they're right on Soccer Mommy. Good band, and maybe the worst name on the list.
	5:27pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Awesome tune. Digging the funk while assembling an Ikea dresser!
	♥ 5:27pm Passaic River Blues: I love "Estre" so much. I still make CD compilations for people, and this so often leads off the mix. Heard first right here on SBB!
	5:28pm northguineahills: Digging this Guy one. Gotta boogie, Sheila B, ciao!
	♥ 5:30pm mlsgrrl: Just to say that Kylie's album, Fever, is so so good! Never sounds old to me, I adore it. Thanks for playing!
	5:30pm Bruce Francis Simpson: 'Says no HTML. Can I drop a suggestion here? Adiemus, either the version used in The Time Machine 2002 or the Enya version.
	♥ 5:31pm Handy Haversack: KG&tLW is a great name, @Ike!
	♥ 5:32pm mariano: Yeah, Bettye Lavette has a great version of "Made a Woman Out of Me". Hey shielab, ever heard "Algo de mí" by Camilo Sesto? In case you haven't, it's a great 70s Spanish torch song: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 5:34pm Guido from Cologne: The manish Boys !!!!
	5:35pm Rick G: This is such a sweet story, Sheila!
	5:36pm P-90: The Manish Boys...!
	5:38pm Jett: That was so classy of you to recognize Bob, that had a big day influence on you. It's important that you always remember these valued friends. I think this is a major reason that I like you so much. We are definitely kindred spirits.
	♥ 5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh - he was just in DAVID BOWIE's early Mod band ....Produced by the KINKS' & the WHO's 1st Producer...
	♥ 5:39pm tadpoles: This is a very neat Pop record! Thanks Sheila.
	5:40pm William Main: Shelia: Did you notice this: https://www.davidbowie.com/blog/2020/1/13/rip-bob-solly
	♥ 5:40pm Guido from Cologne: www.davidbowie.com...

	5:41pm Jett: correction: Big Early Day Influence.
	5:41pm Mike tp: poppin pop delicious dance...a hi energy show SHEILA B....
	♥ 5:41pm Handy Haversack: I've dug every track I have heard off this album!
	♥ 5:43pm mariano: Sorry, to stay on-theme here, there's a cover of Algo de Mí by Rosario Flores: youtu.be...
	♥ 5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Loves Jackie
	5:44pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila: have you co-written 2 songs with Saint Etienne on the Surrey EP of Saint Etienne?
	5:45pm michael z: This TOPS song is lovely. I've never heard of them.
	5:45pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—I have indeed!
	♥ 5:45pm Guido from Cologne: she did
	5:45pm Jett: Bob Solly was also in a Brit band called the Hi-Tones, look into that Sheila.
	5:46pm Vanessa Tara: tops ... from my home town
	5:46pm Rob Kopp: So you don't need a songwriting course anymore!
	5:46pm Briguyhere: Fast Times. Always.
	5:47pm Jett: Thanks for playing Jackie DeShannon, a big favorite of mine. Evie Sands is also a big favorite.
	5:47pm michael z: How nice to hear Jackson Browne. A perfect segue.
	5:48pm kev: How can you play this abuser
	♥ 5:49pm Guido from Cologne: A friend of mine, obviously capable to play some unique guitar since decades, continues to visit Robert Fripp workshops.
	♥ 5:49pm Cooh John: 80's FLASHBACK!
	5:49pm Stashu: Yessssss
	♥ 5:50pm Handy Haversack: Mr. Spiccoli.

	♥ 3:10pm Cooh John: Agree with you, John from Florham park. My happy place.
	♥ 3:11pm Handy Haversack: I can be productive during Bryce's show. Sheila B's grooves make me wish I was home with the volume cranked and a drink in hand. Which I'll achieve for the last half hour of the show ...
	3:11pm William Main: I think excerpts of the Nico film Sweet Skin is available on Youtube.
	3:11pm michael z: She has never sounded more seductive. It isn’t on any of the compilations I have seen of girls Serge recorded.
	3:11pm Eric from Lake Hiawatha: Live in the middle of an ER! Thank you
	3:11pm P-90: This first set is a delightful box of bon bons. Magnifique!

	3:13pm John from Florham park: @Daybreak long time no see on here
	3:13pm michael z: Thanks Rob. I had heard it but never by Nico. I did not know she could be so playful.
	3:14pm Daybreak and the very late night!: Me too John from FP! I don’t even want to be a teacher who rocks from WDHA. I want to be a teacher who is weird from WFMU
	3:14pm northguineahills: We need some more phantasmal funk in our lives...!
	3:15pm Daybreak and the very late night!: I know John, I miss you too man! Being on the Wake chat was making me late to work too many times, so I’m trying to get on when I can in the evening on other shows. It is really nice to run into people from there all throughout the rest of the day! Hope you had a good Friday so far brother!

	3:16pm John from Florham park: Daybreak amen grew up on that station back in the day , but prefer this wierd and wonderful station
	3:17pm Neil in Somerset: I love the first Maki Asakawa album. There's a bar in Tokyo that plays only her music apparently.
	3:17pm Daybreak and the very late night!: Thanks for being here for us every Friday Sheila! It means one hell of a lot to me! Also listeners, if you don’t follow Sheila on Twitter you should do so just to see her triumphant Twitter photo.
	3:17pm John from Florham park: @Daybreak understandable, like I told you once before the accu is very addictive
	♥ 3:18pm Guido from Cologne: Patti Pravo bringing the flashbacks.
	3:22pm iiibeat: This show has been totally pumping the jams lately!!
	♥ 3:23pm frozen_peas: I LOVE this song
	♥ 3:24pm listener james from westwood: 80s dance classic! They didn't like this being played at Catholic high school dances b/c of the skinny-dipping and "cherry wine."
	3:25pm michael z: It’s a perfect way to end the set. You are brilliant Sheila.
	3:25pm Neil in Somerset: You should've gone with it. Great track.
	3:25pm djsheilab: Had to be done! And what FUN to blast this out of WFMU HQ!
	3:25pm northguineahills: Either you or some else played this Jermaine Stewart track before...... Otherwise, I hadn't heard it since the fourth grade...
	3:25pm P-90: 80’s flashback, like TOTALLY
	♥ 3:25pm Matt Fiveash: This was a big hit my freshman year in high school.
	3:26pm Julie: man I love Saint Etienne
	3:26pm queems: oh HELL YES this one’s on my ipod
	3:26pm Vanessa Tara: ahh, back to high school ... hiya sheila!
	♥ 3:26pm mysilentface: Hello Sheila! We can dance and party and drink some cherry wine!
	♥ 3:26pm Handy Haversack: Pretty sure Kate's done this at karaoke.
	3:27pm John from Florham park: @julie howdy @Queems howdy
	3:27pm queems: howdy @john!
	3:27pm Frank Zaatar: Actually, the only thing I like about this song is the song.
	♥ 3:28pm Matt Fiveash: Actually, and I can't believe I remember this, Jermaine Stewart's big hit was "The Word Is Out".
	3:29pm michael z: What’s really special is the joy and innocence to that set. So happy you are giddy Sheila.
	♥ 3:29pm mariano: Wait, there are TONS of records from Latin America from the 60s and 70s with nude women on the cover, one of the most vivid memories of my childhood in Honduras!
	♥ 3:30pm The Oscar: I like to imagine he's talking about the southern-based soda Cheerwine.
	3:30pm ncjay: Cherry Kijafa. 1971.
	♥ 3:31pm Travisano66: Sheila: I got a bottle of cherry wine for Christmas one year. It was a specific request. Didn't know if it existed, but apparently it did. -Philip
	3:32pm Frank Zaatar: But you know there's only one bottle of Cherry Kijafa in existence. It just gets regifted from one house to another.
	♥ 3:33pm mariano: *Definitely NSFW!* lpcoverlover.com...
	3:33pm Briguy: Boone's Farm Wild Cherry. Not drinking that ever again may be one of the two things I learned in college.
	♥ 3:35pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, @mariano, the chat box cuts off the telling part of that URL!
	3:39pm Carmichael: Wow, I came in at just the right song! Heya Sheila and those in the boom boom room.

	3:40pm djsheilab: Michael Z! Thanks for all your lovely comments :)

	3:42pm djsheilab: Hey The Oscar, SSS, steveo, Cooh John, GI Jeff, listener james from westwood, William Main, Dominick, mmeghan, loveless, battleaxe, Manana, Daybreak and the very late night!, Eric from Lake Hiawatha!
	3:43pm djsheilab: Hey Neil in Somerset, northguineahills, iiibeat, frozen_peas, Vanessa Tara, mysilentface, queems, Travisano66, mariano + MATT FIVEASH!!!
	♥ 3:44pm Guido from Cologne: Did that Kelsey Lu ever have been released in physical form?
	3:45pm Russt44: A daunting task to even think about revisiting 10CC. but it has merit. They didnt stray to far. . The original is holy ground
	♥ 3:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, Sheila and accompaniment. Welcome, Year of the Rat.
	3:48pm Julie: Well ain't you teacher's pet, FIVEASH
	3:48pm romandogbird: YEAH
	3:49pm djsheilab: Julie—Haha! He gets all caps cos of his newfound Lizzo affection :)

	♥ 3:50pm Matt Fiveash: I got ALL CAPS
	3:50pm djsheilab: Hey Carmichael!
	♥ 3:50pm Matt Fiveash: WHY ARE WE SHOUTING
	♥ 3:51pm mariano: @Handy: not to belabor the point, but it's lpcoverlover.com... - just write "nudes" after the last slash.
	3:51pm djsheilab: Matt Fiveash—ONE NEEDS TO SHOUT OVER MBV!
	♥ 3:51pm Michael 98145: { rushes in, grabs a seat directly in front of the speaker cabinet } ✔ whew
	♥ 3:51pm Handy Haversack: Arrrgh, we are approaching the worst/best part of Friday! I get to go home and listen to SBB cranked up and with full relaxation protocols engaged -- but I have to miss like 45 mins. of SBB in order to do so! MAKES ME WANNA SHOUT!! (Esp. MBV!)
	♥ 3:52pm Michael 98145: { thank goodness for archives }
	♥ 3:53pm Cooh John: Kids are sleeping or I would have cranked up the JBL 4311's.
	♥ 3:53pm Handy Haversack: (@Mariano, I know -- just thought it was funny that on my view the chat box dot-dot-dotted the "offensive" word.)
	♥ 3:54pm admiral crisp: one of the many reason's I love SBB is because I get out of work at 3 so if it's on then it's officially the weekend!
	♥ 3:56pm Passaic River Blues: I love the name Aoife.
	3:58pm mmeghan: this song!! my heart!!!ugh i love it so much

	4:02pm Vanessa Tara: right on!
	4:03pm JakeGould: Hey Sheila! Nice “My Bloody Valentine” placement.
	4:04pm debt collector: Love from Burlington VT. You’re the best.
	♥ 4:04pm Michael 98145: essential radio
	♥ 4:05pm mariano: Very true, Shiela: even without writing anything, it does wonders for my mood to just sit with my guitar for 20 minutes and meanderingly play.
	4:05pm JakeGould: And… Yes! Congrats on transitioning into the realm of being a creator! Maze too, Sheila!
	4:05pm michael z: Dear Sheila, I know you are goi g to write a great song.

	4:07pm Chud: This version of Tong Poo is amazing!
	4:08pm brainiac: I say let's take back slowdive. It isn't just for kids anymore.
	4:08pm djsheilab: Thanks for your lovely comments, friends!
	♥ 4:09pm Michael 98145: we do want sounds
	♥ 4:10pm The Oscar: Agreed-- there is nothing like channeling one's creative energy, and also nothing like humanity in radio. Congrats :)
	4:10pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila: This could be something for you. Every year Ray Davies, one of the best songwriters in the world I know, is doing a songwriting course. For 16 students only. I did that course in 2001 and it has been one of the great experiences in my life. It's not necessary that you have been writing. I only had written one song before I went there. You have to write (and perform) 2 songs a day.
	4:11pm Carmichael: @michael@3:50, I stood in front of the stage cabinets at a Steppenwolf concert. My ears are still ringing.
	4:13pm John from Florham park: @Robb that is great for ray to do, imparting his knowledge about song writing
	♥ 4:16pm Michael 98145: @carm, i'm amazed i'm not deaf by now
	4:17pm Monica: hola, lady! mizz roberta was indeed sublime - not unlike our hostess:)
	4:17pm Rob Kopp: @John: He is still doing it every year. I wrote about my week here on a Kinks mailing list: kindakinks.net...
	♥ 4:18pm Dominick: lovin' this
	4:20pm Eric from Lake Hiawatha: You have outdone yourself today, compelling
	4:20pm michael z: What an excellent songwriting lesson.
	4:23pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Thanks for sharing about your Ray Davies songwriting course. Must've been very exciting for you to learn from the best!
	4:23pm John from Florham park: @Robb interesting thanks
	4:23pm Vanessa Tara: love this and the marvelettes version
	♥ 4:24pm mariano: That's great, Rob Kopp - I've always been in awe of Ray Davies.
	4:24pm djsheilab: You spoiling me, Monica! :)
	4:26pm Rob Kopp: @Shelia: It was, but you don't have to be a Kinks fan. One of the other students was an opera singer who had won the course. She hadn't the slightest idea who Ray Davies was.
	♥ 4:33pm Michael 98145: whoa
	4:35pm djsheilab: Michael 98145—Woah is right! Where has this been all my life? So delicate, so much feeling.
	♥ 4:37pm Passaic River Blues: Gorgeous.
	4:37pm Rob Kopp: indeed
	♥ 4:37pm Michael 98145: i love this genre of song
	♥ 4:38pm Tome: wonderful to be here ,, Sheilab ,, wow indeed sweet Voice !<>! I'm melting !<>!
	4:38pm djsheilab: Ahhhh....I just live for when you guys comment about the songs that move you. Thanks!
	4:40pm Rob Kopp: but what is a playback singer?
	♥ 4:41pm Michael 98145: @Rob K, typically from South Asian film soundtracks

	♥ 4:47pm Cooh John: Hips moving...
	♥ 4:47pm Guido from Cologne: You cannot go wrong with some female fronted NederBeat! :-9
	4:48pm Rob Kopp: indeed
	♥ 4:49pm Cooh John: Gots the Flirtations, "Nothing But a Heartache" vibe.
	4:49pm Daybreak and the very late night!: Killer song! It has me walking FAST!!!
	4:49pm michael z: Bonny St Claire sounds so cool. And it looks like this is the B side!!!
	4:50pm Rob Kopp: There's a reissue with Tame me tiger on the other side
	♥ 4:50pm Guido from Cologne: flipsides often are the superior
	♥ 4:51pm Guido from Cologne: artist can be what they are on the flip while the a-side is what the managers think would become a hit
	4:53pm djsheilab: Elements of "Bang Bang" in this record!
	4:55pm brainiac: If Cher sang Fado
	4:56pm queems: YESSSSSSSSS
	4:56pm P-90: That was awesome.
	4:57pm listener james from westwood: Floor-filler Kylie cut!!
	4:57pm Briguyhere: Sweet transition !

	5:00pm queems: this song hasn’t aged a day
	♥ 5:00pm Handy Haversack: Kylie twice in two days after not hearing her in ... I have no idea how long.
	5:00pm queems: i had that song on napster when i was 12
	♥ 5:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: A Kylie Minogue song was on Julie's Australia show yesterday. Had fun chatting with Anna Copa Cabanna on the show, too. I don't think she cares much for bulldog ants, it would appear.
	5:02pm John from Florham park: @KFHP that was a great show yesterday
	5:02pm northguineahills: I had an uber driver in NYC that Kylie Minogue videos playing... (a long time ago....)
	♥ 5:03pm Handy Haversack: @KFHP and JFFP, that was a blast. But a lot of different animals really took it on the chin! Apparently only koalas get the love ...
	5:04pm Mike Wolf: Just re-tuned in — what happy French pop band is in our midst, SB??
	5:04pm Mike Wolf: L’Imperatrice?
	5:04pm William Main: Would like to hear more about your criteria for good song vs. bad song. Or would you say "I cant explain but I know it when I hear it?"
	5:05pm djsheilab: Mike Wolf—L'Imperatrice!
	5:06pm John from Florham park: @Handy I know but o am sure it will be corrected
	5:09pm michael z: When your show ends I am going to listen to this album. Thanks for being so current Sheila.
	♥ 5:10pm Guido from Cologne: A great sound-bed for Kadhja Bonet's voice.
	5:11pm Julie: Definitely going to have Anna back on radio, I think she's good at it like she is everything
	♥ 5:11pm Handy Haversack: It was a really fun show, Julie. Was glad to catch it.
	5:12pm djsheilab: FMU Julie! I didn't realize that was you. Hey! Glad the show with Anna went well. She's such a star.
	5:12pm Julie: Kylie also had a hit with Lucky didn't she? I should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky. I sing that to my bird (Lucky)
	5:12pm Vanessa Tara: this is great!
	♥ 5:14pm Michael 98145: (Julie is another of our radio stars ... ) :)
	5:15pm Jett: djsheilab forever! ❤️
	5:16pm djsheilab: Julie—Yeah that was super catchy. And her cover of the Locomotion!
	5:16pm P-90: This Divine is divine.
	5:17pm djsheilab: Oops...it's spelled "Devine," but we'll stick with Divine :)
	♥ 5:22pm Ike: Ah, Sneaker Pimps. One of those good bands with a terrible, terrible name.
	5:22pm Jett: Thought you would have chosen the Nina Simone version of Jimmy Webb's "Do What You Gotta Do," Roberta's version is okay also.
	5:23pm ncjay: Kelli Ali has a number of good solo albums too
	♥ 5:23pm Handy Haversack: Was just thinking that, @Ike. Like Viagra Boys.
	5:24pm djsheilab: Viagara Boys + Sneaker Pimps. TRULY awful names.
	5:24pm Jett: Bobbie Gentry is great!
	♥ 5:24pm Ike: I'm sure some DJ could do a whole WFMU marathon premium out of those, @Handy! Assuming nobody has done it already.
	♥ 5:25pm Handy Haversack: Ha! Good call! Submit it to the Overmind!
	5:25pm charlie brown: Better Kylie than Madonna. I enjoyed that tune, but I am kinda high right now.
	5:26pm Dr. Goot: Great Show, Sheila. Digging the Gentry!
	♥ 5:27pm Ike: Oh, there are articles about this! www.pastemagazine.com... However, I disagree strongly with this writer. I think King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is a fantastic name! However, they're right on Soccer Mommy. Good band, and maybe the worst name on the list.
	5:27pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Awesome tune. Digging the funk while assembling an Ikea dresser!
	♥ 5:27pm Passaic River Blues: I love "Estre" so much. I still make CD compilations for people, and this so often leads off the mix. Heard first right here on SBB!
	5:28pm northguineahills: Digging this Guy one. Gotta boogie, Sheila B, ciao!
	♥ 5:30pm mlsgrrl: Just to say that Kylie's album, Fever, is so so good! Never sounds old to me, I adore it. Thanks for playing!
	5:30pm Bruce Francis Simpson: 'Says no HTML. Can I drop a suggestion here? Adiemus, either the version used in The Time Machine 2002 or the Enya version.
	♥ 5:31pm Handy Haversack: KG&tLW is a great name, @Ike!
	♥ 5:32pm mariano: Yeah, Bettye Lavette has a great version of "Made a Woman Out of Me". Hey shielab, ever heard "Algo de mí" by Camilo Sesto? In case you haven't, it's a great 70s Spanish torch song: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 5:34pm Guido from Cologne: The manish Boys !!!!
	5:35pm Rick G: This is such a sweet story, Sheila!
	5:36pm P-90: The Manish Boys...!
	5:38pm Jett: That was so classy of you to recognize Bob, that had a big day influence on you. It's important that you always remember these valued friends. I think this is a major reason that I like you so much. We are definitely kindred spirits.
	♥ 5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh - he was just in DAVID BOWIE's early Mod band ....Produced by the KINKS' & the WHO's 1st Producer...
	♥ 5:39pm tadpoles: This is a very neat Pop record! Thanks Sheila.

	5:45pm Jett: Bob Solly was also in a Brit band called the Hi-Tones, look into that Sheila.
	5:46pm Vanessa Tara: tops ... from my home town
	5:46pm Rob Kopp: So you don't need a songwriting course anymore!
	5:46pm Briguyhere: Fast Times. Always.
	5:47pm Jett: Thanks for playing Jackie DeShannon, a big favorite of mine. Evie Sands is also a big favorite.
