Stop what you're doing and listen to WING. Right now!!!

http://wingtunes.com

When I was first exposed to the immense talent of Wing, I immediately...I mean immediately ordered her CDs from her website. There is a brilliance - albeit unintentional - that can never be duplicated.

I understand she was a featured performer on the latest episode of South Park, and for this I am jubilant.

Everyone must share in the joy that is Wing. Samples available on her site.


You will not be sorry.



edited to add: this Wing is in no way affiliated with Paul McCartney.

Her versions of the classics are breathtaking (in the Seinfeldian sense)

Since when? :shrug:

I listen to no one, except my hair stylist.

Are you in? Or are we still dealing in percentages?

:P

:evilgrin:

I'm not gonna listen to you. Not gonna do it.

so, no paycheck today... sorry .

Morning, babycakes. How are you today?

and hung out with three friends with the same name. matt matt matt.

but i see them on tuesdays. thurs is matt matt mike and matt, among others.

I have two sisters-in-law: Jenna and Janna. And they have very similar maiden names.

tzu or that motorcycle maintainence one......

:shrug:

did you get scolded, or spanked?
i have felt like a bull in a china shop lately. it was nice to be about with the rough boys last night. not a big fuckload of brains about but... what's that line from high fidelity...
"easier, sunnier". no worries, no holding back. i'm sort of tired of the frazzeledness i've seen about me lately. i've lost one of my kid gloves somewhere.

The promise of a spanking? Not really. I find the dumb ones annoying, but they are easily managed. You better find your glove. You'll need it for when you sing and dance in the lounge. Is that going to be tonight?

reliably find the new crush. he's managed to put himself in my path latety.
but i don't know if i'd do anything about it. he seems to have me on a pedestal of some sort. it's not good for me, i can't do that. he's still a little scared of me, and who knows, maybe he ought to be.

I'd say opt for RL

i was just talking about it with someone i dated a bit. he fessed up about being scared to death of me at first. it's feeling a little thematic right now in light of current happenings.
i don't want to dumb myself down or be needy. needy is a tough one for me. it's just the last few years i could ever ask anyone for any help. it took a huge crises too.
i'm telling you, my father ruined me, i should not have been holding court on a barstool when i was eight. okay, so i loved it. i could have used slightly more balanced parenting i guess.

You need someone who can match you in a battle of wits.

on at home. in this day in age, they would have arrested my dad, but he was a good man, and we both needed a break from the rest of them. too many people in a tiny house. yeah, as soon as i could cross the street, i'd head over to joe's on wed and friday, when my dad had his alotted hour and a half of peace.
i need to knock the stars out of someones eyes. make them snap out of it and see me. not the idea they've formulated. how do i do that?

Tell pointed stories...Not sure.

in the water. that's the skinny from my men friends. i actually did at one point ask him to save me from someone who i was concerned was going to buttonhole me on my way back from the ladies room. you should have seen how excited he was to be given a little chore.
it's so strange to me that stuff like that works. i don't understand it. i'm clueless, really.
but the matt's insist this is t#1 on the scary parade. also, apparently, when my hair looks too good.

But be gentle. Men have fragile egos.

term. maybe it gives him something to do with his hands, and dispel the nervousness. i dunno. it freaked me out that every guy is telling me the same thing. is this what they mean by a purpose driven life? and don't the married ones constantly bitch about getting ordered around? i wish i could be that devious to fake needy. but i doubt it'll happen.

I too have been reading her treatise.

he's fun. if his russian girlfriend is in st petersburg. it depends.
timing is everything. you go out after 11- it's mostly men that are left. not all, but a high percentage.

My parties are so lame in comparison. You and your men.

I had a friend who was engaged to three men named Glenn. She married Glenn the 3rd. He hates it when we call him that.

All the way through high school and college and beyond. A series of like 8 or 9 Johns. She's married to a John now.

Weird.

do you think it's subconcious... that she just likes the sound?
smells i understand. my cousin i do not.

It is kind of weird.

Aftershave is a secret weapon.

showing off your record collection. they're honored to do it. the booth will be overlooking the yard.
i have not had a party since my mom's accident. so i'm ready to overdo it again.

When are you going to have it?

the rain needs to be over. and i have to settle in a little first.

And that druggie band he was in is overrated.

Wing is a native of Hong Kong who moved to New Zealand.

FAYE ROCKS. :hi:

CHOVEXANI where have you been i been missing you

Finally. :P

not fair

I thought for sure that Wing was just a contrivance, and no way could that be a real person singing when I watched the show. I thought it was someone in the studio singing with their voice sped up. At the end of the show they gave her website out and I went there out of curiosity.

I can't explain why or how, but there really is something about her singing that's great just because it's so totally unique. I can't think of anyone else offhand whose pitch and timing are both off, and yet I would still say that about. It's just the wierdest thing.... Someone on the South Park website compared her voice to birdsong. That's one way to think of it, I suppose.

I am enchanted and repulsed simultaneously by her voice.

I refuse to believe that everyone is enchanted by her voice. This is a practical joke, Emperor-Has-No-Clothes style. It must be.

I too believed it must be a practical joke, but I am now convinced she's the read deal, much like the fabulous Shooby Taylor. http://www.shooby.com/

but i'll take elvis costello doing knowing me knowing you
anyday.

even without the whiskey voice.

...and wonderful.

I watched that episode with everyone saying she had a beautiful voice, and wondering if this was just some sort of joke...

There is an unabashed joy in the way she shrieks.
