@odovicor That's "almost"--sorry.

I had heard LA many years ago, in the 80's, in rural Kentucky where allmost no one had heard of her, let alone listen/open up to her. A few years ago I was in the Castro section of San Francisco and "Talk Normal" was coming from a whole foods type grocery, which was very nice for me.

Oh, those "liquid lingerings" of Laurie Anderson. "Let X" and "Gravity's Angel" are my two favorites. I also love a particular cut from United States (?) whose lyrics ask, "Do you, do you want--to go home." Haunting, haunting, haunting. We adore Laurie.

oh boy! right again! :")
why is it so difficult to find Big Science CD? it has been re-issued recently, couple of years back. it's so easy to get it online these days, isn't it?

Every time I predict something unpleasant, correctly, I always say, 'Oh boy. Right again', in exactly the 'hat-check clerk from an ice-rink' inflection. Laurie Anderson's unbelievable coolth has etched itself on me since I discovered her, in the mid-80s.
I *need* to find another cd of Big Science. I had to sell mine, one particularly starving-artist year. That sucked.
This, 'Big Science', and 'Happy Birthday' are my favourites, on this cd. She is so witty! Bewitching.

I met of a friend of a friend recently who was at that show! I can't even imagine what that was like. Take care
I was walking in George Street, Sydney and I met this guy outside a record store. He was playing the B-Side of this single. Walk the dog. At least as good a let X equal X, which first appeared as a flexidisk in Art Forum Magazine. Thanks for posting - and thank YOU Laurie for making the world more interesting. Eks Eks Zero Zero.

This is a very beautiful, melancholy song. My personal favorite from "Big Science."
