Strange as it seems, she's the one I'm after. She knocks me up about it. And I can tell I don't want anyone else. She's a mistake. She's too much for me, but I keep calling that form. She's just the girl I'm looking for. That's the girl I'm looking for. That's the girl I'm looking for. She can't keep a secret for more than an hour. She runs on 100 proof attitude power. And the more she ignores me, the more right or her What can I do? I do anything for her Cause she's been sweet. She must be off the mouth. And I get down I don't want anyone else. But I can't doubt it at all. I can't give up just yet. Don't bring it back. She's cold and she's cruel, but she knows what she's doing. Knows just what to say so my whole day is through it.

And we heard Stranger in a Strange Land. That was from 1971. It was only his second album. Leon Russell, famous for mainly playing piano with his left hand, as cerebral palsy prevented him from playing regularly with his right hand. The song is named after a 1961 science fiction novel of the same name, shelter people, an amazing group of session musicians, including a couple, who went on to Derek and the Domino's with Eric Laughton. Of course, there was a kid from England who called himself Elton John, who was also inspired by this record. Before that, we heard Big Special, a duo from the UK with their latest single, Slug Life. As with all their songs, the title was in all caps. They released their second album last year, National Average. We started out with Amateur last summer off their latest album, Amateur Music. You're listening to the Ready Kilowatt Hour on Radio Fairfax. This is music from a band out of Vancouver Island, British Columbia that we've played before. This is neighborly from their album Kerplunk. It's walking talking about it.

A reminder, you can stream our old shows at readykradio.bustrout.com and also on your favorite podcast apps. And in fact, the month of March, we had almost 700 downloads of our show, which uh is definitely a record. I remember our first year on the air, the entire year, I think we had like 750 downloads, and I said, wow, that many people. Well, this last month we've come close to bettering that, which is absolutely amazing. To all of you, thank you very much for your listenership. And this is a lot of fun for me. Never thought as many people would find it fun as well. We are gonna be back on Radio Fairfax next Thursday night at nine with both rock and roll. Until next week, it's ReadyJ Kilowatt, your rock and roll servant. Stay well, stay safe, and please don't kill anyone. Good night.
