I just thought he'd always be around. The way I've taken it for granted there would always be a Jonathan Richman and a Todd Rundgren.

None of us lives forever. Except Arthur Laurents.

My condolences. He made some great music. You won't be surprised but I liked him from his days with The Box Tops.

That's because you ain't got time to take a fast train, PJ.

My baby. She wrote a letter.

Omigod--that bridge where they let loose with "...she wrote me a letter, said she couldn't live WITHOUT me no more...!"

Still exciting.

He had that perfect world-weary huskiness in his voice for that song.

I listened to the Replacements song "Alex Chilton" today in his honor.
