The ignominious return of book-related songblogging! Sorry about the poor quality, it was the best one I could find.
A pretty soundtrack for a snowy day.

When I was little, I knew I was a bookworm but not what order to say it in.

I just went to see them 2 weeks ago. The show was great fun. but stephen merritt was unlovably grumpy. Claudia and shirley were very charming. and the other boys did not speak at all, which was strange but also somehow endearing.
That's cool -- I have not gotten around to seeing them yet. I find it hard to imagine Stephin Merritt off the grumpy spectrum, but the man has written some gems.
I love this song! I put it on the tenth anniversary mix I made my partner - and on his (a true sign of love since he is not a bibliophile) was Belle and Sebastian's "Wrapped up in Books":

And yes, it was odd that we both surprised each other with mixes on our tenth anniversary, since this is something we had never ever done once in the previous decade.
