doodle by andre: close to you

WHY DO BIRDS SUDDENLY APPEAR? Just in case you want the musical answer to be indelibly imprinted in your brain today (thanks, Andre Jordan, for the power of suggestion), how about a spin through the 40-year-old recording of Karen Carpenter’s decidedly non-horticultural answer to this question?

Beyond the period-piece video, if you really want to laugh that offcolor kind of laugh that Andre the Doodler is so good at bringing out, take a spin through his archive of “Songs for Ex-Lovers” (his own, shall we say, arrangement of some all-time favorite lyrics, that is). They’re all here, in their passive-aggressive glory.

Love is in the air!

    Hi, Karen. The soundtrack “player” isn’t on my book website any longer, if that’s what you were recalling, but here’s the list. The player didn’t really work any longer as gradually many of the songs got removed from the site they were streamed from by copyright holders (as is the case with most music streaming sites — things come and go in availability and so you can’t count on the tunes being accessible over a period of time). Is that what you recalled?
