Reply #5: When Tony Bennett say's "she's the daughter I never had"... [View All]

[nine23]

...well, kinda' say's it all, doesn't it?

And Marianne Faithfull? Jeez. I saw her at The Commodore in Vancouver last year doing her Kurt Weil/torch tour. She had me sobbing like a little boy cub every tune...I'm an ageing punk in my early 40's; I like to think I still have a bit of a thick skin, but I found myself making "excuses" that night with my date: "um, no, there's something making my eyes tear", having to "go the bathroom" during certain tunes, etc.

I could barely handle it. And it felt good, worth every penny...
