At last, the (triumphant?) return of Tea with Hungry Lucy! In honor of Memorial Day, Christa and War-N kick off the episode with a live performance of the New Order song “Love Vigilantes” (originally recorded for the “True Faith” album). Some explanation of the unplanned Hiatus follows in amongst CB & W’s difficulties with forming simple sentences. War-N talks a bit about the film “A Mighty Heart” and how if affected him and Christa talks about beautiful visual impact of the film “Perfume“. Other People’s Music chatted about was the song “New Soul” by Yael Naim (from her self-titled album) and the album “Dreaming of Revenge” by Kaki King. War-N learned about Kaki on the excellent podcast “World Cafe: Words and Music (Feed)”. The podcast rounds out with “My Beloved” (from the album “To Kill a King”), dedicated this week to our new nephew, Micah.
Last week we chatted with Guy David for his Night Guy podcast. Episode 64 (Tea and Vegetables) featuring CB and me is now online. We talk about organic food, music freedom and how Christa shoots herself!
Human nature, at least many people’s, is to always suspect that the grass is greener on the other side. We take the parts of our lives that we don’t like and focus on how great life would be if the exact opposite were true. The trouble with that bad habit, is that it never goes away. Life is a compromise. No matter what possessions you have, what job you have or what relationships you have… there will always be a downside. There is a fine line between striving for better and never being happy. It’s easy to recognize what is wrong in our lives, but not always so easy to recognize the wonderful experiences and people in our lives. Find what makes you happy in your life and totally dwell on it… go on… just roll around in it! Take all that energy you spend wishing for something more, and bask in everything great you have going on right now.
It’s working for me… right now… and I aim to keep it that way.
Happy Mother’s Day to all. No podcast this week, but we’ll be back next week with another live performance and our usual brand of silliness.
We just (moments ago) recorded a nice chat with our new friend in Israel, Guy David. Look for our conversation an upcoming episode of the Night Guy podcasts.
“Sometimes… you just gotta reboot”.
In the 5th installment for Life with Hungry Lucy, Christa and War-N tell us about starting the song “Erase Her” from scratch when it just wasn’t working.
This week, the duo explain their most recent “Life with Hungry Lucy” episode about the new song called “Erase Her”. You may view said video at this link. In their travels of the week, vinyl is rediscovered in a glorious way and new OPM’s are found! CB’s new (but old) finding was Demis Roussos. A lovely large fella with a sweet voice, who (we are happy to learn) is still going strong. War-N’s OPM’s this week are Coldplay and their new free release “Violet Hill” and Clara Rockmore. Clara was THE theremin player of all theremin players! See for yourself down below.
