AOC bitch slaps Ted Cruz

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender. AOC: I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

Truly how to make America great

I tried to spend the equivalent of Trump’s proposed military budget. Globally, I eliminated hunger & extreme poverty; in the US, I ended homelessness, covered the uninsured, installed universal pre-K, sent another round of $600 checks, & powered 50% of households with solar. I have $77B left over.

Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DXCIII--Three Dog Night: Out in the Country

 Joy to the world, all the boys and girls, joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea...I'm (six days) late again...

My introduction to this week's tune was a little on the late side.  I've mentioned a time or two (or ten) that I buy used CDS at our local library sale and make sure I play them at least once.  So, when this week's band's greatest hits (another version of which I noticed after I bought it, alas, I already owned) came up in my queue, I figured it would be a few days of listening on my drive to work before a quick change to another CD.  Nope--I fell right in love with this week's song, which was the only song on the hits package I wasn't familiar with (despite it being a hit) and I ended up listening for weeks.  Ah, but you're never too late for a great song....

I wrote about Three Dog Night way back in Vol. CXI, and sadly, as is often the case with older bands, the only news since then is that original member and one of their troupe of lead singers, Chuck Negron, passed away earlier this year.  I also noticed as I did my half-assed research that in my previous post about them, I neglected to note their discography which is as follows:  twelve studio albums (three reached the top ten), four live albums, seven compilations (one hit the top five), and twenty-six singles (with eleven top ten, including three at #1).  Not surprisingly considering the market for oldies acts, they are still touring (with two original members still left) and actually released a new single in 2021.

"Out in the Country" was the second single from their 1970 release, the rather roughly entitled It Ain't Easy.  The single peaked at #15 (with a bullet!) on the Billboard Hot 100 but reached #9 in Canada (so many cool kids among our neighbors to the north!).  The album hit #8 on the Billboard 200.

Fun Fact:  "Out in the Country" was released the first year that Earth Day was celebrated, and in its early days was one of the songs environmentalism used to celebrate our, well, environment.

Written by Paul Williams (who had quite a bit of success as a songwriter) and Roger Nichols (ditto), "Out in the Country" is a paean to letting the beauty of the outdoors take you away from your troubles.  The harmonies throughout are exquisite, and the chorus is as catchy as a Gold Glove fielder's mitt (how that for a massively shitty simile?).  Even better, it's repeated--emaycee fave!--numerous times through the course of the song.  There's a just this side of smooth instrumental break. and all of this is wrapped up with a bow on top in three minutes and eight seconds (there's always something to be said for brevity).  In the end, it's a wonderful slice of mellow gold, and the musical world can never ever get enough of mellow gold....

Lyric Sheet:  "Before the breathin' air is gone/Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime/Out where the rivers like to run/I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'..."

Enjoy:

Democrats have overperformed by roughly +8% to +12% in special elections during Trump’s second term — about +10 points on average.

Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DXCII--Lenny Welch: Since I Fell for You

 Yesterday it rained in Tennessee, I heard it also rained in Tallahassee, but not a drop fell on little old me, 'cause...I'm (only four days!) late again....

My introduction to this week's tune is twofold.  I originally heard it as a cover version by Charlie Rich (I featured another song of his in Vol. CCCXLV) on an album that my Mom had (and loved).  Fast forward about ten years, and it was featured prominently in a movie I particularly loved (perhaps because my Mom was a recovering alcoholic like many of the characters in the movie), Clean and Sober.  Only in the movie, it was the original version, and if I recall correctly, just a day or two after hearing it in the film I picked up the cassette single from the oldies section we had for many years at Camelot Music.  A long time ago in a land far away, one supposes....

Lenny Welch was born in New York City in 1938 and got his musical start at the ripe old age of sixteen in a local doo wop group.  In 1960 he signed his first recording contract, and three years later had the biggest hit of his career.  Welch would release singles and albums through 1977, at which time his recording career came to a pause.  He drove a cab and put himself through school, first earning his GED, then a bachelor's degree.  In 1990 he joined The Royal All Stars (later The Doo Wop All Stars), a troupe of singers from bands of an earlier time.  He left them in 1992 to pursue an acting career (never panned out) but was able to spend the next twenty-eight years touring as a solo artist before quitting when the COVID pandemic struck in 2020.  For his career, he released five studio albums, one compilation, and thirty-six singles (eight of which charted on the Billboard Hot 100).  Sadly, Welch died just last year at the age of eighty-six.

Fun Fact:  Welch spent the bulk of his youth in Asbury Park, New Jersey, making him the second Friday Night Jukebox honoree to have spent his formative years there.  I'll let you guess the other....

"Since I Fell for You" was released in 1963, from his debut album, the rather imaginatively entitled Since I Fell for You (and yet again no Wikipedia entry...).   The single hit #4 (with a bullet!), while the album peaked at #73.

For some odd ass reason, until I did my half-assed research this week, I thought that "Since I Fell for You" was a wonderful piece of blue-eyed soul, when in actuality it's a wonderful piece of soul brother soul (Welch is black)--which is kind of funny in a way (it's not like I've ever seen him performing the song on some musically related TV show--I was all of four when it originally was released).  No matter in the end.  Enveloped in strings, Welch weaves the tale of a man who gave up his happy home for a love that didn't last and is lamenting the fact that he can't stop loving her.  I'm not familiar with any of Welch's other hits, but I'm guessing this is one of those musical moments in which kismet was ever present in the studio.  Welch's vocals are other worldly--he captures all the man's heartbreak--and ever-present desire--with every single note he sings and carries that sorrow on his back like it's his own cross to bear.  It's one of those songs where an artist creates their moment of perfection--and hangs that perfection around his neck like a golden amulet for the rest of his days.  Welch put the torch in this torch song on this one, and it sounds as good or better with each and every listen.  A gem of a gem if ever a gem there was....

Lyric Sheet:  "Love/Brings such misery and pain/I guess I'll never be the same/Since I fell for you..."

Enjoy:

The GOP playbook: The rich get richer...and you get nothing

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $270B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $210B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Another boner from Trump

CNN: Trump’s Asst. Secretary for Health at HHS, led the federal press conference on the hantavirus outbreak. Before joining the administration last November, Christine was an Alabama-based urologist who specialized in penile implants. But don’t worry, he’s also an far right extremist nut job.
