Drunk Tank- not so much a time
George St.- I'm havin' a time

lots of gender-bending in the Magnetic Fields catalog.

ps:  Magnetic Fields:  one of the worst live shows I've ever been to.

I think this one's pretty non-traditional. At least as far as content goes.

Blue eyes blazing, and he's going to be my wife."

What constitutes a love song?  And what constitutes non-traditional?

Vaselines - Monsterpussy
Mag Fields - Meaningless
Leonard Cohen - Winter Lady

Pretty much all Leonard Cohen songs are non-traditional love songs to me.

I'm not a chicken,  you're a turkey.
