   The song is fabulous but the shoes are wrong. I don’t think she (please tell me who she is) would be wearing those horrid monstrosities. Can’t you find a better .jpg than that?

     We will have to remain at odds on the shoes Karen.

       Rich’s comment is hilarious! Inquiring minds do want to know. Have you ever sung Not in these shoes in karaoke-style in your Jimmy Choos?

   I’ve never heard of her. Or shoes.
   • cooper on August 30, 2011 at 11:15 pm said:

     I’m disappointed you haven’t heard of her.

     Either way, she passed away in a rather tragic accident in which a Mexican mogul probably ran over her with his boat while she was scuba diving with her sons. One of his minions ended up taking the blame and was given some minimal fine.

   I listened to this. Then got sidetracked by your articles on the sidebar which somehow had me look for other articles on Fitch’s retaining the USA’s triple A rating as I think that’s at least as important as S&P lowering it.

   Thanks Cooper for always keeping me honest and alert!

   Love the shoes and the song.

   I’ve never heard of her either.

   This is great thanks. My wife was/is a huge fan of Kirsty.

   The situation surrounding her death was rather a travesty, but money changes everything.

   Those shoes would be tough for fat ankles, otherwise they work for the song.

   Great song, never heard it or her. I live a sheltered life — musically.

   Kinda had a little Panic At The Disco vibe, I thought.

   Had to Google her. She sang “They Don’t Know About Us?!?!?”

     Disco?

     She wrote They Don’t Know About Us and she used to sing with the Pogues ( among others), most notably Fairytale Of New York

     I can’t believe I forgot to say this, but am so glad you made it through the earthquake and hurricane safely. I have no idea how close you are to the coast or not, but I was worried just the same.

       I know. It’s all that socialization.
       We got not so much, a few power outages some flooding. Nothing serious at all. Thanks for coming back over to check.

   Women’s legs are my kryptonite. Once I’m exposed to them my ability to ponder any intellectual forms of expression is as useful as a child in a toy store. My reaction is :” Yea yea yeah, uh-huh, I agree with you 100%, whatever it is.”

   But I suspect you knew this….Yes, I failed the test.

      Nice to see you Inde.

    The music is new to me, it’s nice, thanks.

    Inquiring minds want to know Cooper, have you ever sung this fabulous song (e.g., karyoke-style) in your Jimmy Choos? That would be something to see / hear.
    • cooper on September 5, 2011 at 10:34 pm said:

      Of course.

    I’ve never heard of her either, but that’s such a jazzy, “You give me fever” type of voice. Very nice.
