So I’ve got this fever, see. And the only prescription appears to be Lisa Loeb. I’m not sure why or when this occurred, although I believe it to have something to do with the debut of her ‘Number One Single’ reality show in Canada, which I’ve been addicted to. Regardless, I pulled out my copy of her first album and listened to that; nary enough to satisfy my cravings. I ventured off to snag the new ‘Very Best of Lisa Loeb’ album, which contained enough to at least temporarily ward off the shakes and such.
So Sunday I’m off to the LCBO after church (what?) in my grey Saturn ION, windows down, arm on the ledge, Lisa Loeb blaring out the GM stock stereo. I’m singing along in my best falsetto: “You say, I only hear what I want to.. you say I talk slow all the time.. so?”
So just then I glance off to my left while stopped at a red light in Brampton on Sandalwood and Dixie to see a low-riding white Accord containing two gentlemen who appeared none too pleased with my song selection. They was giving me the stink eye. So I break out laughing, because let’s be honest, I realize the absurdity in a pasty white boy belting out Lisa Loeb in his 2003 Saturn ION; we can all be friends, and laugh at my expense. But they wouldn’t laugh. They just looked like they’d prefer to beat me about the head.
So I sped off. Today, I listened to Q107.
