A couple of months ago, I expressed hope that Amy would soon show up on
YouTube, our omnipresent 21st century Web TV channel by-and-for-the-
millions. Well, today I noticed the following upload, a cover of,
uh, 'Are We Ever Wanna Have Sex Again' (for so reads the title):

The band, Hos en de Mannen, deliver what I'd best describe as
a 'workmanlike' rendition of the tune. It appears to have been filmed
in a dimly lit coffeehouse, but was actually recorded (according to the
video's notes) 'live at the Wrakkenmuseum' in Terschelling, a shipwreck
museum on an island off the north coast of the Netherlands. (Hm, I
guess that recent tour of Holland succeeded in spreading the word a bit
farther...)
Referencing Highbridger's concert report, I don't know if Amy would
want to celebrate this latest milestone with an expensive steak dinner,
but perhaps at least an espresso macchiato at Seattle's Best would be
in order...how many musicians can boast of having their songs covered
by a band at a Dutch shipwreck museum, anyway?
