Today's Quick Mention:  Now that John Hughes has had a very worthy tribute at the Academy Awards, the folks out in Hollywood are on the hunt for his last unpublished script.  Can't they just let the guy go?  This reeks of a poor attempt to cash in on his death.

I've been in the midst of staring at artists and times for the last couple of days, so it was a nice change of pace when I found out yesterday that The Bird And The Bee had put together an album of Hall And Oates covers.  Below is one of their takes.  You'll be able to get Interpreting The Masters Volume 1: A Tribute To Daryl Hall And John Oates on March 23.  Enjoy.

:The Bird And The Bee - Private Eyes (Hall And Oates Cover):  What's there to really say about this?  Inara George and Greg Kurstin clearly have a great appreciation for the famed 80s duo, and they do nothing to this song that your parents wouldn't approve of.  On a related note, anyone ever amazed at how some of these super synth-filled tracks hold up?  I guess "catchy" just transcends time and trends.
