Don't you know..."Chuck E's In Love" I'm watching VH1 Classic and they're showing the video. Loved this mellow track by Ricky Lee Jones. What ever happened to her anyway?
Chuck E's in la-uv, Ah he's in love... | |

brilliant piece of music, classic! the groove, the bassline... the song just get's you hooked and won't release'ya for the rest of the day
Rickie Lee Jones - "Chuck E's in love" How come he don't come and p.i.p. with me Down at the meter no more? How come he turn off the t.v. And he hang that sign on the door? We call and we call 'How come?' we say What could make a boy behave this way? He learn all of the lines, and every time he don't suffer when he talk And it's true! It's true! He sure is aquired a cool and inspired sorta jazz when he walk Where's his jacket and his old blue jeans? If this ain't healthy is it some kinda clean? I think Chuck E's in love I don't believe what you're saying to me This is something I gotta see Is he here? Look in the poolhall Is he here? Look in the drugstore Is he here? No, he don't come here no more I'll tell you what I saw him He was sittin' us down at the Pantages And whatever is that he got up his sleeve I hope it isn't contagious What's her name? Is that her there? Christ, I think he's even combed his hair! Is that her? What's her name? Oh, it's never going to be same. But that's not her I know what's wrong-- Chuck E's in love with the little girl who's singing this song Chuck E's in love with me Vanglorious... this is protected by the red, the black, and the green. With a key... sissy! | |

i LUUUUV that song!
jones still does the tour circuit, and tours europe at least once a year. it's usually in a small to mid-size venue , so it generally feels really intimate when she performs, and she's ALWAYS awesome. i just saw her back in the fall and had a great time at that show. | |

She played London recently to promote her new album. Btw, Chuck E's In Love is about the songwriter Chuck Weiss. Ricki, Chuck & Tom Waits used to hang out together in LA in their pre-fame days. Also, "Trainspotter Fact"- Mac Rebbenack AKA Dr. John plays keyboards on her first album. I won't bore you any more, I'm off to bed. | |

She put out a new album last year that was a critics rave. But the public all but forgot about her. The Last Otan Track: www.funkmusician.com/what.mp3 | |
