10000 Maniacs


Tension Makes a Tangle (Wishing Chair)

[ music: John Lombardo/lyric: Natalie Merchant ]



as frail hinges
pivot on a case's door
commemorative
souvenirs from places
containers change
with each occasion

a cellophane encased
display of paper
certificate
to credit years of service
a tool of central enterprises
the early hope
for permanence
the words
the rings
consistency
the social security
a miracle is high tragedy

thought mistaken
for a memory
clear the dust from
smiles in boxes
pass a patterned wall
recall their voices

a local post
will list your friends
in order of
disappearance
the lawn scattered

tins feed birds
a portion baked for
absent guests
and the mass edition icon
God sent comfort
your salvation
but who grants absolution
for sins that
never were committed

tension makes a tangle
of each thought
becomes an inconvenience
sound as it never penetrates
as servile edges
break and
feint

thought mistaken
for a memory
a dress length
assassination
a fractured family tie
another christening

christening
christening
christening

Diana Krall:

Diana Krall: "The Very Best"


The word "chanteuse" may have been coined for Canada's Krall, who has emerged as one of the preeminent jazz voices of our era--mostly by her mastery of a bygone one. On "The Very Best," the singer slinks and sashays through more than a decade's worth of reinvigorated standards.
Live from Studio C: Josh Rouse

Live from Studio C: Josh Rouse


Seventies rock-inspired ladies' man Josh Rouse found a few minutes out of his busy tour schedule to stop by Studio C. He treated us to solo acoustic versions of "Hollywood Bass Player" and "Sweetie" from his latest album, Country Mouse City House.
James Blunt

James Blunt


While some guys try to impress girls with lines like "I didn't know angels flew so low," James Blunt simply sings "you're beautiful." That genius pick-up line scored him supermodel Petra Nemcova and turned him into a rock star overnight. His latest, "All the Lost Souls," continues with the romance.
Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd


Before Pink Floyd became '70s prog-rock heroes, they were Swingin' London's most interesting psychedelic pop group. Newly reissued with a CD of bonus tracks, the Syd Barrett-led "Piper," their debut, still stuns like it did then: as the most darkly grown-up children's lullabies anyone's ever heard.
