Doing Exactly What a Coward Would Do

Today's Recommended Listening: A Martyr for My Love For You - The White Stripes
A lot of people don't like the stripes, they argue that music should be more complex.
I used to feel that way too, but the more I listened, the more I was wrong.
Also, Jack White and Meg White are not brother and sister. I don't know where that
rumor started. Jack and Meg are ex husband and wife. Jack took Megs last name because
he thought 'it sounded cooler'. That's the story.

The people thought that they were just being rewarded

Today's Recommended Listening: Sleeping In - The Postal Service
Certainly there are better postal service songs, but
since it hit 70 degrees today, it seemed oddly appropriate.

Crop Circles on the Carpet

Today's Recommended Listening: Hide and Seek - Imogen Heap
Now for a minor note. This song is haunting.
It's all in the effect that she uses.
Of course the lyrical mastery is also... well.. what did she say?



Anyone who is a regular to this blog knows that I'm a fan of Scrubs.

you'll understand why he's there.

You Wasted Life, Why Wouldn't You Waste The After-Life?

Today's Recommended Listening: Ocean Breathes Salty - Modest Mouse
Maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both grow old. I don't know, I don't think so.

Walking on the Embers

I have spent a lifetime
Waiting for the chance
To save you my confession
Save the one last dance

The same old superstition
Haunt us now and then
I'm begging for permission
To play the Foo Fighter's 'Burn Away'

Worse Than You Would Ever Know

Today's Recommended Listening: Dashboard - Modest Mouse.
This one has one of the most fun and interesting music videos I've seen in a long time.



While we are on the subject of cool videos, you should definitely take a look
at this little show put on by Fat Boy Slim. You may recognize someone.
BTW, if you ever find yourself on a game show, where the question
standing between you and a lifetime of financial freedom is
"What is the greatest music video ever made?" here's a hint:

Such a Happy Little Song

RHCP - Universally Speaking
Such a happy little song.
