Random Music Musings...
May. 6th, 2008 03:25 pmSo, you'll have to be a fan of Hitchcock movies, particularly Vertigo with Jimmy Stewart and Kim Novak to get my nerdy joy about this.
There was a song called "Flagpole Sitta" that came out when I was in high school. At work, I listen to internet radio I heard this song again and decided to buy a used copy, as there are no more new pressings done. Anyways, I pop it in to listen to it, and the first song that comes on is called "Carlotta Valdez." I just... the geektastic joy I get from this overwhelms me.
Oh, and one of coworkers, Chris, is a major Hitchcock fan, especially of Vertigo (perhaps because the film takes place in San Francisco), but when I told him, he almost had a nerd-gasm.
So here are the lyrics, and I hope you fellow Hitchcock fans get a kick out of it too.
