	3:20pm Rob Kopp: Typing is a struggle on the phone
	3:20pm djsheilab: Thank you Deborah! ami ad—I don't think CBD helps with any of his ailments.
	3:23pm G: Wanna feel old? Ringo Starr is 80 on Tuesday.
	3:23pm Passaic River Blues: Extremely thoughtful sequencing thus far, and as always.
	3:24pm Jett: If I'm ever sick, I know who I want to nurse me back to health. That Alvy is a lucky guy.
	3:25pm Guido from Cologne: I own an LP by Fayza Ahmed on Türkuola (they also released comps. of Egypt music in the early 80ies)
	3:26pm djsheilab: Thank you Passaic River Blues!
	3:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Would you call this Arabic? I love this type of Music. Gary brings it on Bodega Pop sometimes.
	3:28pm djsheilab: I must say it's a treat to play such long, atmospheric songs.
	3:28pm djsheilab: RR Nov63—Yes, she's singing in Arabic.
	3:28pm Jett: Do you know if Fayza Ahmed did any films with Farid al-Atrash ? He was such a talent.
	3:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Its like hashish for the ears.
	3:30pm ami ad: Mmmm,hashish.
	3:32pm Jett: It was Little Eva's birthday this week. I do prefer The Crystals version of "Uptown."
	3:32pm djtanner: Back-to-back C minor!
	3:34pm Guido from Cologne: LUSH !!!
	3:34pm zenrebeldiva: LUSH!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
	3:36pm Russt44: I think little Evas version has the original lyric Very sweet Goffin and King version.
	3:37pm Jett: Quite a few female artists celebrating birthdays today, Laura Branigan, Betty Buckley, Fontella Bass, Poly Styrene, and Judith Durham.
	3:37pm djsheilab: djtanner—I wonder if I'm still in C-minor? I just use my ears.
	3:37pm djsheilab: Russt44—Mann + Weil!
	3:39pm Guido from Cologne: Lotsa clicky stars! Mus go back to te balcony ...
	3:40pm mariano: Heya Sheila B and crew, folks!
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not a TheThe cover then. : )
	3:41pm Jett: Did you know Barry Mann and Cynthia Weill wrote "Uptown" for Tony Orlando, but he chose not to do it so it was offered to The Crystals, with slightly modified lyrics?
	3:42pm mariano: Love this Ivy song.
	3:42pm Russt44: This Is The Kit record is wonderful
	3:43pm Michael 98145: ( Debbie Harry's b-day was July 1 ... )
	3:43pm Heidella: Love this song, so summery. Always good to hear you Shiela!!
	3:44pm djsheilab: Hey Heidella + mariano + zenrebeldiva!
	3:44pm Russt44: Yes, Barry and Cynthia song. Goffin and King production
	3:47pm djtanner: so. much. cowbell!
	3:47pm Jett: Hard to believe Deborah Harry turned 75 a couple of days ago, she still looks and is so beautiful. I can remember seeing her for the first time in the mid-seventies at CBGBs, what an incredible talent and beauty.
	3:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Sheila. I can't tell C-minor from E-major from a 60-cycle hum. One of the WFMU channels should have a show that teaches music theory and such.
	3:48pm flashbazbo: I’d like to hear tony do uptown in the first person as the guy. It could go hard either way.
	3:51pm Rob Kopp: I'm off. We have to get up very early for a funeral, the 3rd one in month. None of them because of Corona btw. Until next week
	3:52pm Devin B.: Wow this set!
	3:52pm Cooh John: This is the music we need amidst the craziness. Love to all.
	3:53pm Michael 98145: take care, @Rob K
	3:53pm slocker: Hi Shelia, lovely newsletter today! ❤️
	3:54pm Rob Kopp: Goodbye Chiffons
	3:54pm djsheilab: Glad you enjoyed, slocker! Hey Cooh John, flashbazbo + Devin B.!
	3:54pm Jett: Love this Chiffons song!
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: KfHP - I'm so up for learning the insides of Music.
	3:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Musician guests demonstrating with Music...
	3:58pm mariano: Mmmm. Love me a good jazz waltz tempo.
	3:59pm Guido from Cologne: has a bit of early Warpaint
	3:59pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano!
	3:59pm mariano: Hey Handy - how's it up in Vermont you lucky dawg?
	4:00pm Passaic River Blues: @Guido: I hear that. Sort of reminiscent of that first Warpaint album.
	4:00pm TDK60: Hello deh.
	4:00pm Russt44: What a great hour!!
	4:01pm Handy Haversack: Not too shabby! We did little hike in the rain and then back to the house and the sun is coming out. The dog had his pig's ear, and all is well with this tiny little corner of the world. I assume everything else has improved markedly, too? Great set, Sheila!
	4:01pm P-90: Whatever the process was that led to its creation, that WAS one HELL of a set.
	4:01pm Andy A: Awesome thanks. From UK.
	4:02pm ami ad: @Handy Haversack:Missed on some shenanigans on the Fabio board,there was also a complaint about you and me too.Hope you're having fun.
	4:02pm braen: Honestly one of the best hours of radio I've ever heard
	4:03pm Handy Haversack: Jeez, ami, what did we do? I get complaints even when I'm not around? That's a rare talent!
	4:03pm Jett: So I usually feel that no matter what you play, @djsheilab , you can do no wrong.
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Who plays Pop songs more than once ?? : ) ...Finally realized when working in a CD store that every time I said I liked something I prefaced it with 'I know some people don't' ...Well - so what?
	4:04pm TDK60: Got to see Ivy open for Kitchens of Distinction, around '97 I think.
	4:05pm Jersey Jim: Hour long set was magical and so appreciated. Sitting on patio in shade, trimming garlic harvested today, so aromatic and with your set was a perfect hour spent. Thank you !
	4:05pm Bill: Keep programming to what makes you happy- that's why you're the DJ and we are not. Great set!
	4:06pm Handy Haversack: Oh, nice, TDK60!
	4:06pm Avrilinmay: Sheila if you think there is no immediate reason prompting you to talk about such things, then you have no idea how much less lonely and crazy I've just felt hearing talk about being afflicted with these thoughts ! It helps so much to know that other people deal with the same extreme empathy and how to cope with it. Thank You! Now all that's left is to continue the battle not to be crushed under that weight ...
	4:07pm Listener John from NJ: hello all!
	4:08pm WM: Dear Shelia: Sounds to me that you are starting to think like an adult - and yes that is supposed to be a compliment. I wanted a lot of time worrying "what will people think." Your opening set was very good. Stick with your new style (nothing wrong with your old style, for that matter).
	4:09pm slocker: I got a fake ID in time square just to get into rock clubs and it worked! More lax back then.
	4:09pm Handy Haversack: Pixie dust for Alvy!
	4:09pm WM: typo - "I wasted"
	4:09pm ami ad: @Handy:Hehe,the person who was banned from Bagel shops in 2 states was upset at the person who banned them and with us,for rolling with it.But,there was also an Agitator on the board.
	4:09pm Peter in SEA: Ohhhh Alvy Singer, sick? :-( Hope it's not too serious and that you have good resources. There is such a thing as a homeopathic vet if he doesn't get well soon. Oh! Asthma! what a drag!
	4:09pm Matt Fiveash: Get well soon Alvy!
	4:10pm mariano: ami: Oh, you mean the guy who reeeeally took exception to "Whitey on the Moon"? Yeah, was a really bumpy Thursday, must've been something in the air. And yeah, get well soon, Alvy!
	4:10pm djsheilab: Go Go's documentary trailer! www.youtube.com...
	4:11pm Joe Castrianni: I think the band said that fans were too intimidated to really hook up with them. Apparently, the opening bands and toad crew were not as intimidated.
	4:11pm ami ad: @mariano:Yeah,turns out it was an inside job.
	4:11pm Handy Haversack: Oh, I see, ami. I had thought all bagel-store bans were tongue-in-cheek? They are definitely not enforceable.
	4:12pm tneeld: Hi all! A little late today. I actively avoid having people close to me listen to music I love just in case they don't love it as much as I do, so I totally get that fear.
	4:13pm P-90: “toad crew” (!)
	4:13pm mariano: There's a Go Go's documentary?! [starts skittering around on the floor like an excited pup] ami: Inside job, really?
	4:13pm Jett: Kathy Valentine wrote "Vacation" for her group The Textones, it was later re-worked for her group, The Go-Gos. It became a huge hit, still have that music video engrained in my brain!
	4:13pm ami ad: @Handy:I know,had to mention that the Web is Virtual...Haha.
	4:14pm ami ad: @mariano:Yeah,one of the old guard on the station.
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: One podcast I listen to person made point that we're always entreated to transcend our egos - but for a certain type - the task is actually to form a functioning ego!
	4:15pm mariano: Jett: The video for "Our Lips Are Sealed" still makes me all misty-eyed. Love the "Vacation" video too. I have two cousins (each other's sisters) who do a great acoustic duet version of the song.
	4:15pm amylea: Sheila!!!! You read my mind! I’ve been sing Shelley Fabares all afternoon! ♥️♥️
	4:15pm BH: whispers as somebody born in the mid-80s.. I once had a realization that Joan of Arc from Bill & Ted was in the Go-Go's. Hopefully Jane gets some extra B&T residuals this summer if stations air that movie because of the new Bill & Ted movie that might come out sometime in 2020.
	4:15pm djsheilab: That's very kind of you to say, braen!
	4:15pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, Kate does it at karaoke sometimes when she has someone to harmonize with.
	4:19pm Jett: Japanese actress Alisa Mazuki did a version of "Vacation" the song Connie Francis had a hit with. Are you familiar with that one? @djsheilab
	4:19pm ami ad: This Puff is for You.
	4:20pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Sheila, missed part of that set have to archive. Yeah, just play it, the beauty of FMU!
	4:21pm Passaic River Blues: I was quite actually listening to Miss Universum's "Lady Put Your Foot Down" maybe a half hour before SBB. Love the piano tone on this one.
	4:21pm Ally Bell: This is the best show ever, every song has been absolute fire!! THANK YOU <33
	4:22pm Ally Bell: OMG I just sent that comment then Britney came on I'm screaming haha
	4:22pm Daisy: Sheila I had to pop in and just say THANK YOU FOR BRIT
	4:23pm jean genie: GIMMEEE A SIIIIIGGGGGGGGGNNNNNNNN
	4:23pm Daisy: and all the great tunes prior >:)
	4:23pm mariano: Handy: she should record it with the band. Actually, with "Our Lips Are Sealed" my favorite part is the backing vocals in the second verse, they're so angelic.
	4:23pm Faye: omg love from me & heather this is literally the ideal vacation driving set
	4:23pm sam: hi I LOVE BRITTTTT
	4:24pm Jett: I misspelled her name it's Alisa Mizuki
	4:24pm Ochre Ogre: @mariano You know the Fuxa cover of Our Lips Are Sealed?
	4:24pm thesecoronalives: i ALWAYS appreciated this song ..and yet feel compelled to slightly dim the volume in my apt rn.. : - l
	4:24pm P-90: Hi Faye!
	4:25pm mariano: Ochre Ogre: no, I don't know that one, thanks for the tip!
	4:25pm djsheilab: FAYE!!! Sending love right back to you both!
	4:27pm dreamyandseedy: i need that pongo/britney collab
	4:27pm emilie s.: Rihanna wishes she were this good.
	4:27pm P-90: Uwaaaaaa!
	4:28pm Jett: @mariano Fun Boy Three do a great version of "Our Lips Are Sealed" it was written by Terry Hall of Fun Boy Three and Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Gos. Jane is my favorite Go-Go.
	4:28pm Passaic River Blues: Pongo for the win!
	4:29pm BH: Scene: Record company, 1998 Exec: "This song is titled 'Hit Me Baby One More Time'... this might be misinterpreted" Max: "What if we just change the title and don't change the lyrics" Exec: "Excellent, that'll work" (Another part of Wikipedia claims that Max Martin's grasp of English [as a Swede] shaped Baby One More Time)
	4:29pm Ochre Ogre: mariano Yeah man, spacey and chill version, Ken was playing it often for a while.
	4:29pm djsheilab: Hey Daisy! Thanks for checkin' in with the Brit love!
	4:30pm djsheilab: Ally Bell! Thanks for your love n' enthusiasm!
	4:30pm Threemoons: Hey, was confused when I heard Shelia on but now I remember it's Friday...
	4:30pm djsheilab: emilie s—Oh my god....totally!
	4:31pm phat: Holy crap the piggie song is fantastic
	4:31pm mariano: Jett: Yeah, I know and love the Fun Boy Three version. Ditto on Jane as favorite Go Go. Remember her brief scene in "Clue" as the singing telegram girl?
	4:31pm Big X: Uwaaaaaaa! YAY! Awsome! Maine is rockin!
	4:32pm Jett: Wow, haven't heard anything from Una Mae Carlisle in a real long time. Very cool. @djsheilab
	4:33pm Jett: @mariano Yes, she is so awesome. Love her!
	4:34pm djtanner: Sophisticated Oinks and Croaks
	4:34pm BH: shoutout to the people listening to who heard the frog noise and wondered "is there a frog near me?"
	4:36pm ?: oh there is a frog near you alright lurking lurking : )
	4:37pm Colleen: What was Britts deal??
	4:37pm ghostpimp69: no! it's raining where i am and this set is really lifting my mood! :)
	4:38pm Jett: I chose to turn on the Central A/C it actually feels a bit cold here right now.
	4:38pm Colleen: refuse to get out of my car till I hear what Brittneys deal was...she sounded different....but the same!
	4:39pm Colleen: That was the original single??... she sounded much older...maybe it's just been that long!
	4:39pm Scott Williams: Bryce & I sang Email My Heart on my radio show, way back in the overnight days. HI SHEILA! Miss you.
	4:40pm ZeeBee: Hey friends! just tuning in. happy to be here!
	4:40pm The Oscar: Just tuning in, but legit sad I missed Britney! For reasons unclear MTV reran the 1999 VMAs last weekend, which was a trip.
	4:41pm Russt44: I'm So Young by The Students. Really one of the greatest of all Doo Wop records
	4:42pm ?: I love that documentary too! I only got to see some of it, but I totally recommend!
	4:43pm Handy Haversack: we all sound older now, Colleen!
	4:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: There's more of us! We have to Unite.
	4:45pm djsheilab: And She Could Be Next link! www.pbs.org...
	4:46pm djsheilab: Scott Williams—This is my favorite news of the day. WOW! Might you share the archive link? I miss you too, Scott!
	4:46pm Ochre Ogre: Hells Yeah and A.O.C., damn that woman rocks!! Sounds good, will check it out.
	4:46pm slocker: I bet watching this is going to make me cry.
	4:46pm brainiac: @RR Nov63: Dyslexics Untie!
	4:47pm djsheilab: slocker—Definitely!
	4:47pm Jett: I love that Students record, Veronica of The Ronettes(Ronnie Spector) does a cool version also.
	4:47pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, Kate says she wants to cover "Head Over Heels."
	4:48pm mariano: I'll take it no complaints, Handy :)
	4:48pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: I am just home from spending the afternoon at my neighbour's pool with my kid and another neighbour, so I'm late to the party, but I am glad to be here now, and I will be listening while I get dinner under way. It is smoking hot up here in Ottawa today.
	4:49pm Scott Williams: Sheila, I'll try to track down the archive, but it was late 90s, could be tricky!
	4:49pm Ochre Ogre: @RR- "They got the guns, but we got the numbers" Jim Morrison
	4:50pm Big X: thanks sheila b. you rock!
	4:51pm djsheilab: Thanks Big X!

	4:57pm Ochre Ogre: Rev Rab- Wild, did not know that.
	4:57pm Russt44: And Mareba record is fab.
	4:58pm djsheilab: Russt44—Digging quite a lot of the newer stuff!
	4:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Rawk'n'Roll is like a 16 year old's song - but we've forgotten.
	5:00pm Threemoons: OOOOH SIOUXSIE
	5:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: Wake 'n' Bake played Siouxsie this morning, but before I woke. Thanks for setting things right, DJ!
	5:03pm Jett: I love anything by Siouxsie and the Banshees!
	5:04pm Passaic River Blues: @Brandon: what are you talking about? The following are the opening lines of the Mereba song: "I've been through the fire, I felt embers down my spine, And I've said 'World would you please have some mercy on me? Or could you please lift the curses on me?'" Sounds like weighty material to me.
	5:05pm IamBasil: Thank you for playing mama Siouxsie!!!!totally needed her voice and that song right about now
	5:05pm djsheilab: My pleasure—IamBasil!
	5:06pm listener pi: Herman Cain diagnosed with Covid, after orange rally.

	5:13pm JohnEBGood: Happy 4th Sheila and FMU family. Crazy for the Blue White and Red. We still !number one!
	5:13pm Passaic River Blues: Lil' Green's "Why Don't You Do Right" is one of the most gangster tracks ever recorded. I love it so much.
	5:14pm Cooh John: This show gets a clicky-star from me.
	5:15pm Russt44: Why Dont You Do Right? A revalation!! Thanks for this one. You learn somethinh new all the time.
	5:19pm Passaic River Blues: @Russt44: "revelation" -- that's exactly what I thought when I first heard the song on SBB. So smart and unsparing, but not without lilting playfulness.
	5:19pm Jett: Wow, another downpour again. Perfect music for this!
	5:21pm matthew glass: We're enjoying the show Sheila. Loving the start of this new set - Esther Phillips has such a unique voice! Thanks. Best wishes to Alvy.
	5:21pm Monica: Yo, Mizz B - workin + listenin over here. That Lil Green track was a huge influence on Peggy Lee, who subsequently recorded it with Benny Goodman Orchestra and sold a million copies.
	5:21pm JohnEBGood: Columbo Rules!
	5:23pm Guido from Cologne: Little Easter!!!
	5:23pm djsheilab: Hey Monica—I don't know which version I prefer. Both are so dark + brilliant!

	5:38pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello, djsheilab and friends. My pops is in hospital the past few days and I've been going a bit nuts and the last thing on my mind was entertainment, but radio, and especially the Boom Boom is not entertainment...it is goodness and light, and I thank you for that!
	5:38pm Ochre Ogre: Does that deal include digital albums today on Bandcamp, anybody know?
	5:39pm Mr. Pumpy: Also, I arrived just in time to hear that Billy Jam is in the house! Life, take the blessings where they may fall...
	5:39pm djsheilab: I'm so sorry to hear it, Mr. Pumpy. I hope your father makes a quick recovery!
	5:39pm BH: SUW is still listed on the front page schedule for today.. which makes one wonder what topic would be picked for a Billy Jam hosted SUW episode
	5:40pm ncjay: Fern's albums are so wonderful!
	5:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sympathies Mr. Pumpy.
	5:40pm brainiac: "Baby Let Me Kiss You" is fire.
	5:42pm Jett: Dorothy Moore and Fern Kinney were both members of a highly underrated girl group, The Poppies, always liked them. Both Dorothy and Fern did pretty well on their own.
	5:42pm Mr. Pumpy: Thank you, Sheila.
	5:42pm Michael 98145: this! beat!
	5:42pm Mr. Pumpy: Rev Rab...appreciated.

	5:43pm Kevin-san: @Ochre Ogre: yes - today, July 3, we’re waiving our revenue share for all sales on Bandcamp, from midnight to midnight PDT.
	5:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: In the July Blast of Hot Air newsletter, SMK announced Billy Jam will take a slice of Therese's slot 5 - 6 PM Sundays. Not sure when that starts, though.
	5:45pm Michael 98145: No Emperor! No Caesar!
	5:47pm Jett: @MrPumpy I'll keep your Dad in my prayers. Have faith! All will be well!
	5:48pm TDK60: Yeh Mr. Pumpy, heart out for your pop.
	5:48pm Ochre Ogre: @Kevin-san Awesome thanks. I'm browsing.
	5:48pm Jett: Mitty Collier is great! Nice cover of Little Walter!
	5:49pm dano59: Nice to Know Alvy’s doing better. Had to put Sassy dog down this morning. Did w/o music for a few hrs and then the first song on radio was I Say a Little Prayer & I knew things’d be a little more OK
	5:49pm Mr. Pumpy: Jett, TDK...thank you. It's a lot of stuff been a long time coming, but you know...never fun regardless.
	5:50pm Handy Haversack: Oof, Mr. P, so sorry to hear -- thinking of you, pal. Let us know if we can help. Sheila, what a PERFECT show. Thanks so much! Be well, all.!
	5:50pm djsheilab: dano59—Oh no :( It's so so painful having to say goodbye to our beloved animals. I'm so sorry. Sending my condolences you.
	5:51pm Mr. Pumpy: Thanks, Handy. It means a lot! Are you in midst of your travels?
	5:51pm dano59: ty Sheila. I know...

	3:28pm Jett: Do you know if Fayza Ahmed did any films with Farid al-Atrash ? He was such a talent.

	3:37pm djsheilab: djtanner—I wonder if I'm still in C-minor? I just use my ears.
	3:37pm djsheilab: Russt44—Mann + Weil!
	3:39pm Guido from Cologne: Lotsa clicky stars! Mus go back to te balcony ...
	3:40pm mariano: Heya Sheila B and crew, folks!
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not a TheThe cover then. : )
	3:41pm Jett: Did you know Barry Mann and Cynthia Weill wrote "Uptown" for Tony Orlando, but he chose not to do it so it was offered to The Crystals, with slightly modified lyrics?
	3:42pm mariano: Love this Ivy song.
	3:42pm Russt44: This Is The Kit record is wonderful
	3:43pm Michael 98145: ( Debbie Harry's b-day was July 1 ... )

	3:47pm djtanner: so. much. cowbell!
	3:47pm Jett: Hard to believe Deborah Harry turned 75 a couple of days ago, she still looks and is so beautiful. I can remember seeing her for the first time in the mid-seventies at CBGBs, what an incredible talent and beauty.
	3:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Sheila. I can't tell C-minor from E-major from a 60-cycle hum. One of the WFMU channels should have a show that teaches music theory and such.
	3:48pm flashbazbo: I’d like to hear tony do uptown in the first person as the guy. It could go hard either way.
	3:51pm Rob Kopp: I'm off. We have to get up very early for a funeral, the 3rd one in month. None of them because of Corona btw. Until next week
	3:52pm Devin B.: Wow this set!

	3:53pm Michael 98145: take care, @Rob K
	3:53pm slocker: Hi Shelia, lovely newsletter today! ❤️
	3:54pm Rob Kopp: Goodbye Chiffons
	3:54pm djsheilab: Glad you enjoyed, slocker! Hey Cooh John, flashbazbo + Devin B.!
	3:54pm Jett: Love this Chiffons song!
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: KfHP - I'm so up for learning the insides of Music.
	3:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Musician guests demonstrating with Music...
	3:58pm mariano: Mmmm. Love me a good jazz waltz tempo.
	3:59pm Guido from Cologne: has a bit of early Warpaint
	3:59pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano!
	3:59pm mariano: Hey Handy - how's it up in Vermont you lucky dawg?
	4:00pm Passaic River Blues: @Guido: I hear that. Sort of reminiscent of that first Warpaint album.
	4:00pm TDK60: Hello deh.
	4:00pm Russt44: What a great hour!!
	4:01pm Handy Haversack: Not too shabby! We did little hike in the rain and then back to the house and the sun is coming out. The dog had his pig's ear, and all is well with this tiny little corner of the world. I assume everything else has improved markedly, too? Great set, Sheila!
	4:01pm P-90: Whatever the process was that led to its creation, that WAS one HELL of a set.
	4:01pm Andy A: Awesome thanks. From UK.
	4:02pm ami ad: @Handy Haversack:Missed on some shenanigans on the Fabio board,there was also a complaint about you and me too.Hope you're having fun.
	4:02pm braen: Honestly one of the best hours of radio I've ever heard
	4:03pm Handy Haversack: Jeez, ami, what did we do? I get complaints even when I'm not around? That's a rare talent!
	4:03pm Jett: So I usually feel that no matter what you play, @djsheilab , you can do no wrong.
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Who plays Pop songs more than once ?? : ) ...Finally realized when working in a CD store that every time I said I liked something I prefaced it with 'I know some people don't' ...Well - so what?
	4:04pm TDK60: Got to see Ivy open for Kitchens of Distinction, around '97 I think.
	4:05pm Jersey Jim: Hour long set was magical and so appreciated. Sitting on patio in shade, trimming garlic harvested today, so aromatic and with your set was a perfect hour spent. Thank you !
	4:05pm Bill: Keep programming to what makes you happy- that's why you're the DJ and we are not. Great set!
	4:06pm Handy Haversack: Oh, nice, TDK60!
	4:06pm Avrilinmay: Sheila if you think there is no immediate reason prompting you to talk about such things, then you have no idea how much less lonely and crazy I've just felt hearing talk about being afflicted with these thoughts ! It helps so much to know that other people deal with the same extreme empathy and how to cope with it. Thank You! Now all that's left is to continue the battle not to be crushed under that weight ...
	4:07pm Listener John from NJ: hello all!
	4:08pm WM: Dear Shelia: Sounds to me that you are starting to think like an adult - and yes that is supposed to be a compliment. I wanted a lot of time worrying "what will people think." Your opening set was very good. Stick with your new style (nothing wrong with your old style, for that matter).
	4:09pm slocker: I got a fake ID in time square just to get into rock clubs and it worked! More lax back then.
	4:09pm Handy Haversack: Pixie dust for Alvy!
	4:09pm WM: typo - "I wasted"
	4:09pm ami ad: @Handy:Hehe,the person who was banned from Bagel shops in 2 states was upset at the person who banned them and with us,for rolling with it.But,there was also an Agitator on the board.
	4:09pm Peter in SEA: Ohhhh Alvy Singer, sick? :-( Hope it's not too serious and that you have good resources. There is such a thing as a homeopathic vet if he doesn't get well soon. Oh! Asthma! what a drag!
	4:09pm Matt Fiveash: Get well soon Alvy!
	4:10pm mariano: ami: Oh, you mean the guy who reeeeally took exception to "Whitey on the Moon"? Yeah, was a really bumpy Thursday, must've been something in the air. And yeah, get well soon, Alvy!
	4:10pm djsheilab: Go Go's documentary trailer! www.youtube.com...
	4:11pm Joe Castrianni: I think the band said that fans were too intimidated to really hook up with them. Apparently, the opening bands and toad crew were not as intimidated.
	4:11pm ami ad: @mariano:Yeah,turns out it was an inside job.
	4:11pm Handy Haversack: Oh, I see, ami. I had thought all bagel-store bans were tongue-in-cheek? They are definitely not enforceable.
	4:12pm tneeld: Hi all! A little late today. I actively avoid having people close to me listen to music I love just in case they don't love it as much as I do, so I totally get that fear.
	4:13pm P-90: “toad crew” (!)
	4:13pm mariano: There's a Go Go's documentary?! [starts skittering around on the floor like an excited pup] ami: Inside job, really?
	4:13pm Jett: Kathy Valentine wrote "Vacation" for her group The Textones, it was later re-worked for her group, The Go-Gos. It became a huge hit, still have that music video engrained in my brain!
	4:13pm ami ad: @Handy:I know,had to mention that the Web is Virtual...Haha.
	4:14pm ami ad: @mariano:Yeah,one of the old guard on the station.
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: One podcast I listen to person made point that we're always entreated to transcend our egos - but for a certain type - the task is actually to form a functioning ego!
	4:15pm mariano: Jett: The video for "Our Lips Are Sealed" still makes me all misty-eyed. Love the "Vacation" video too. I have two cousins (each other's sisters) who do a great acoustic duet version of the song.
	4:15pm amylea: Sheila!!!! You read my mind! I’ve been sing Shelley Fabares all afternoon! ♥️♥️
	4:15pm BH: whispers as somebody born in the mid-80s.. I once had a realization that Joan of Arc from Bill & Ted was in the Go-Go's. Hopefully Jane gets some extra B&T residuals this summer if stations air that movie because of the new Bill & Ted movie that might come out sometime in 2020.
	4:15pm djsheilab: That's very kind of you to say, braen!
	4:15pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, Kate does it at karaoke sometimes when she has someone to harmonize with.
	4:19pm Jett: Japanese actress Alisa Mazuki did a version of "Vacation" the song Connie Francis had a hit with. Are you familiar with that one? @djsheilab
	4:19pm ami ad: This Puff is for You.
	4:20pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Sheila, missed part of that set have to archive. Yeah, just play it, the beauty of FMU!
	4:21pm Passaic River Blues: I was quite actually listening to Miss Universum's "Lady Put Your Foot Down" maybe a half hour before SBB. Love the piano tone on this one.
	4:21pm Ally Bell: This is the best show ever, every song has been absolute fire!! THANK YOU <33
	4:22pm Ally Bell: OMG I just sent that comment then Britney came on I'm screaming haha
	4:22pm Daisy: Sheila I had to pop in and just say THANK YOU FOR BRIT
	4:23pm jean genie: GIMMEEE A SIIIIIGGGGGGGGGNNNNNNNN
	4:23pm Daisy: and all the great tunes prior >:)
	4:23pm mariano: Handy: she should record it with the band. Actually, with "Our Lips Are Sealed" my favorite part is the backing vocals in the second verse, they're so angelic.
	4:23pm Faye: omg love from me & heather this is literally the ideal vacation driving set
	4:23pm sam: hi I LOVE BRITTTTT
	4:24pm Jett: I misspelled her name it's Alisa Mizuki
	4:24pm Ochre Ogre: @mariano You know the Fuxa cover of Our Lips Are Sealed?
	4:24pm thesecoronalives: i ALWAYS appreciated this song ..and yet feel compelled to slightly dim the volume in my apt rn.. : - l
	4:24pm P-90: Hi Faye!
	4:25pm mariano: Ochre Ogre: no, I don't know that one, thanks for the tip!
	4:25pm djsheilab: FAYE!!! Sending love right back to you both!
	4:27pm dreamyandseedy: i need that pongo/britney collab
	4:27pm emilie s.: Rihanna wishes she were this good.
	4:27pm P-90: Uwaaaaaa!
	4:28pm Jett: @mariano Fun Boy Three do a great version of "Our Lips Are Sealed" it was written by Terry Hall of Fun Boy Three and Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Gos. Jane is my favorite Go-Go.
	4:28pm Passaic River Blues: Pongo for the win!
	4:29pm BH: Scene: Record company, 1998 Exec: "This song is titled 'Hit Me Baby One More Time'... this might be misinterpreted" Max: "What if we just change the title and don't change the lyrics" Exec: "Excellent, that'll work" (Another part of Wikipedia claims that Max Martin's grasp of English [as a Swede] shaped Baby One More Time)
	4:29pm Ochre Ogre: mariano Yeah man, spacey and chill version, Ken was playing it often for a while.
	4:29pm djsheilab: Hey Daisy! Thanks for checkin' in with the Brit love!
	4:30pm djsheilab: Ally Bell! Thanks for your love n' enthusiasm!
	4:30pm Threemoons: Hey, was confused when I heard Shelia on but now I remember it's Friday...
	4:30pm djsheilab: emilie s—Oh my god....totally!
	4:31pm phat: Holy crap the piggie song is fantastic

The following are the opening lines of the Mereba song: "I've been through the fire, I felt embers down my spine, And I've said 'World would you please have some mercy on me?
