Song of the Day: 'Shattered' by Tracey Ullman


Not sure which part of this clip makes me happier -- seeing a young (and hunky) Rick Springfield introduce it, or Tracey Ullman's gravity-defying 'do singing one of my favorite songs off her "You Broke My Heart in 17 Places" LP. FYI: It was through Tracey I first learned classic songs by Doris Day, Dusty Springfield, Sandie Shaw and Marcie Blane, which once allowed me to seem way older (and cooler) than I really am! (P.S. If you haven't seen Tracey's new HBO show then you're really missing out. She's gone darkly political, but is laser-focused on the U.K. these days, which means I can actually enjoy the Trump-free zone!)
