monoceros blogsI miss Scrubs. I really do. Season 5 is showing in the US right now. The only thing I can do to satisfy the craving is re-watch old episodes. Oh, and listen incessantly to my "Scrubs" playlist and read episode guides on the latest episodes.
I've had the two DVD boxsets on my wishlist (on two separate websites) for the longest time (even though I have most of the episodes, courtesy of noob). I'm not sure what's stopping me. I love the writing, the acting, the fact that it stands apart from all other comedies, those with the laugh tracks, the live audiences and multiple cameras.
I also love the music (which explains the playlist; again, courtesy of noob). Colin Hay, the Cary Brothers, Keren DeBerg, Josh Radin. So I was checking out this week's free downloads on Itunes when I spot a new release by Mr Radin, his first full-length CD (incidentally, another Scrubs musician - Shawn Mullins - has an album out too). I sample all 11 tracks and wonder how I should get the music. I could buy it off his official site (I want an actucal CD!) or Itunes. I could wait and see if it will reach Singapore. I could wait for noob to get hold of it and then pester him for a music dump the next time I'm in Ann Arbor. I could buy it off Itunes. Yeah, I guess I could.
He has a blog too, which I could read as I listen to his new music. That would be nice.
Here are lyrics to the favorite track, which played at the right moment on a particular episode of Scrubs.
"Winter"
I should know who I am by now,
I walk the record stand somehow,
Thinking of winter
Your name is the splinter inside me
While I wait.
And I remember the sound
Of your November downtown,
And I remember the truth,
A warm December with you,
But I don't have to make this mistake,
And I don't have to stay this way
If only I would wake.
The walk has all been cleared by now.
Your voice is all I hear somehow
Calling out winter
Your voice is the splinter inside me
While I wait.
I could have lost myself
In rough blue waters in your eyes,
And I miss you still.
can you say 'best-episode-ever', the one with winter.
actually it pretty scary the correlation of the quality of the episodes and the quality of the music.

Posted by: airhole at February 15, 2006 8:36 AMHmm, I think there were a couple of others that would compete for "best episode." =) Still, it was a damn fine one. I want more episodes!
Hey godbrother, perhaps it should be me loaning you the episodes - I have all four seasons. Just missing a few episodes here and there.
