Love
Don't go away
Come back this way
Come back and stay
Forever and ever
Please stay

It is happening again...My amazing co-host Xan Sprouse and I are back with a new episode of Ghostwood: The Twin Peaks Podcast!  This time, we pay tribute to the passing of singer and songwriter Julee Cruise, celebrating her various songs with composer Angelo Badalamenti for Twin Peaks and David Lynch films, discussing her four studio albums, and more!

LET'S ROCK

In this episode, Xan and I discuss things like altering our plans to discuss Labyrinth with David Bowie, Julee Cruise having systemic lupus and reportedly dying from suicide, Kate Pierson and Cindy Wilson being incredible vocalists, Julee Cruise touring with The B-52s as a background vocalist, Xan's favorite Julee Cruise song, This Mortal Coil's version of "Song to the Siren", how Julee Cruise ended up singing "Mysteries of Love" on the Blue Velvet soundtrack, her first album Floating Into the Night, my favorite Julee Cruise song, accepting David Lynch as your lord and savior, her appearance as the Roadhouse Singer in the Twin Peaks pilot, her appearance on Saturday Night Live, Andrew Dice Clay, her appearance as The Dreamself of the Heartbroken Woman in Industrial Symphony No. 1, "Questions in a World of Blue" in the Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me trailer, her second album The Voice of Love, her third album The Art of Being a Girl, her reinterpretation of the Psych theme song for the Twin Peaks tribute episode "Dual Spires", her fourth and final album My Secret Life, her return as the Roadhouse Singer in "The Return, Part 17", Xan having a stack of records of things she already has, wondering if David Lynch would've cast Roy Orbison in his films or Twin Peaks if he lived, our friend Christine Peruski going through Twin Peaks for the first time, Labyrinth making Jim Henson extremely depressed, and more!
