Recording information by RagandBoneGOLD
This is a request, from Bruce. AND a dedication...
I did my best. :^) for the funny man with great ideas and an incredible ability to build community, a good friend!
I thought I knew this song; it turns out that I only knew that first line, form one of those Ktel commercials when I was a kid. There's like, a whole song after that line, and it isn't "stupid cupid stop picking on me!"

hey you know what? you should sing "Stupid Cupid" NEXT! heheheheehee
7 months ago, jasminebreeze420 said:
OR you could sing the little pieces of songs like on the compilations.. there are so many pieces of songs that i have heard on those commercials, and in my head they are their own song, with little pieces of each flowing into the other.

Heyyyyyy you snuck it in again, but with my new super dooper radar system, I could hear a bleeping and had to come look and see... Apart from the fact that you told me you were working on something, that the kitten took over whilst you were sleeping AND that I had your profile just sitting there all morning hee hee...
Okay well done that man Bruce, and that's even before I get listening ;-) I know it's gonna be goood. Sigh.

This is just all kinds of marvelous, Eliza. Mostly the smooth and creamy kind, but also some of the heady, intoxicating stuff, a good bit of peachy sweetness, and maybe just a hint of nutty crunchiness. How you do all that to one song, I dunno.

I can still picture the 5-second clip of Connie Francis singing this on that Ktel commercial - the first place I ever heard of this song. Seems rather perverse, yet a propos that so much of our "culture" is gained through advertising.
Soo beautifully sung, Eliza. You out-shine CF on this by orders of magnitude.

i don't know this song at all (although i have heard stupid cupid on 'snap before)
...but i LOVE it now thanks to you...this is dreamy and retro cute for me. *sigh*

WOW Eliza. This is brilliant. I also got an education in music from those Ktel commercials and their ilk. Mostly I remember that British chap selling us on the classics and did I know that "Stranger In Paradise" was really from the Polovetsian dances by Borodin?
LOL @ Howard's comment. It actually sounds like a line of dialogue from one of those commercials.
Your take off on this is PERFECT. As we discussed, I find that to be the hardest part of this song to match. You did it like I've never heard it done. And, yes, there's a whole song after that and you did it gloriously.
Can't tell you how much I love this. And thanks so much for the kind words.
