Neko Case - Hold on, Hold on

This is one of those songs you hear one time and then you can’t stop thinking about it. I don’t mean hearing it in your head like some annoying jingle. I mean putting it on repeat and listening to the words over and over each time wondering if you have the meaning right.
Neko [...]


Top 10 Tracks on Rhapsody 4-27-08

1) Lil Wayne - “Lollipop” Ok, this song does have a catchy little beat and I like the chorus but I looked at the time left around 3 minutes into the song and was struck dumb that it had 2 miuntes to go. This song was good at 2 minutes. At 5 [...]


This day blows, can I have another?

My fellow cube monkeys, I am having a hard time getting motivated this morning. Things are slow at work, my house is a disaster zone from “acts of god”, and even though I slept like 9 hours last night I feel like I have been shot in the ass with a horse tranquilizer. [...]


Star Wars - Return of the Nerd

I came in tonight and decided to listen to a little music. Had a couple of things queued up and was reading come music blogs when I decided I wanted to see the MC Chris Fetts Vette video I posted last week. I gotta tell you, I love that shit. I played [...]


The Bravery - “Bad Sun”

This is an interesting little track I ran across the other day. It has a simple beat and a little whistling which I normally think it is a bad idea but it works here. The lyrics though are what is appealing here. I tend to be a skeptic on the concept of [...]


Friday at Work Play List

I am just one bored dude at work so I can’t really prepare a list to end all other list of thirteen tracks that will get you through a Friday in the salt mines plus I’m not really all that into research….but I have a couple of hours to kill here so I will give [...]


American Idol

I have to admit, I really enjoy American Idol. My wife and I watch it regularly. It is also the only “reality show” we watch (except Dancing With The Stars which my wife loves but since Julianne Hough got booted who gives a shit).
I wanted to give a few thoughts on this season. [...]


MC Chris - Fett’s Vette Music Video

Every now and then I sit around in an altered state of consciousness and wonder if the Internet and technological advancement are good for us as a species. I mean come on don’t tell me you don’t think the machines won’t eventually take over and nuke us. You saw the damn movie.
Anyway, when [...]


The Hold Steady - “Boys and Girls in America”

I must qualify this post by saying that I had decided that it was a great album after I heard the following lines about 60 seconds into the first track.
“She was a really cool kisser and she wasn’t all that strict of a christian
She was a damn good dancer but she wasn’t all that great [...]


Strange Cravings

I am just hanging out tonight working on the site, and I had an interesting few songs on repeat. They are certainly an interesting mix, but I have been enjoying them. They are:

Cheap Trick - “Surrender”
TV On The Radio - “Let The Devil In”
Chris Cornell - “Billie Jean”
Prince - “Little Red Corvette”

Nothing [...]
