It’s the fourth track listed here on this website.

These are the Eels, from 90’s fame “Before I Sputter Out.”

    I didn’t realise it was the same band! But of course… I can hear it now.

    This track is fantastic. I want it. Oooh, one more play and it’ll be permanently going round in my head all night.

    i always really liked the eels. electro-shock blues is one of the most awesome depressing albums ever.

    i don’t know “before i sputter out” but the one everyone always remembers is “novocaine for the soul”

    Yeah Julie, novocaine for the soul I think is called “Sputter out” as in

    Novocaine for the soul,
    You better give me something to fill the hole
    Before I sputter out.

    And you, Ohlivia, are completely confusing. So do you remember the song or not? Or are there multiple olivias posting to my site and if so, what sort of kinky hijinks will that lead to?

    Yeah of course I remember the song :@} I just remember it being called “before I sputter out”… rather than the ‘official’ song title as Julie pointed out.

    Ahkay… I see.

    I actually thought the name of the song was Sputter Out as that’s what I found it as on Kazaa a few years ago whilest making a CD for an old chum back home.

    I thought I’d put together a bunch of old songs we used to listen to and we could go cruising and listening and relive our childhood.

    Then I accidentally brought the wrong CD with me.

    The moral of the story is, regardless of what Kazaa tells you you’re downloading, Bob will still be emailing a Trojan Virus around in the morning.

    ummm…i never said that was the “official” song title

    i didn’t realize they were the same songs

    i always thought the line was “before i spun around” heh

    No, you’re definitely right. That is the song title.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh man what a funny round of posts this has become.

    I think I’ll take this moment to say that I have officially decided to give the American version of The Office a chance after watching it the other day and finding some funny parts in it.

    yeah, i saw it and it wasn’t that bad, except it is hard to enjoy it. it’s weird how the actors try to exactly mimic the British actors. it’s not that i don’t think they should, but it just feels really weird and almost made me not give it a chance.

    and hey, that cd mix you made for me is just rocking! thanks a lot =} i was so eager to get it

    yeah I agree with all of the things you just said about the American Office.

    Hmmm…did I never send you that CD? I can’t remember now, though I do remember putting it in a CD case and getting it ready to mail….

    Wow. I’m a dick if I never sent it.
