Gotta be Dr. Elmo:
Merry Christmas, everybody….
Gotta be Dr. Elmo:
Merry Christmas, everybody….
This one was planted in my head when I got back from Chicago yesterday. I can’t say I wish that it had been, but it’s there, and now you have to suffer, too. Happy Friday.
Have a maniacal weekend.
I don’t leave until Tuesday, but here it is anyhow.
They Might Be Giants realized a while back that their appeal as musicians and songwriters stretches beyond the worlds of stoned and tripping college students who want to jump up and down like 8-year-olds, and into the worlds of 8-year-olds who want to jump up and down like 8-year-olds. I think that’s swell. Their new album “Here Comes Science” is another in their series of CD/DVD releases that are made for kids, and are meant to educate and entertain. Turns out adults still like them, too…
These pomplamoose people have gotten a lot of attention for this beyonce cover that they did, but i just heard this one and think it’s a winner. Plus, these guys are funny. I like funny.
This mashup of architecture in helsinki and the very best is just happy happy joy joy. And the video doesn’t miss a beat. Enjoy:
do a little kamphopo dancing this weekend.
I heard this last night and it reminded me of the fact that Jim Carroll died a couple weeks ago, sadly joining the ranks of the people in this song. This amazingly energetic, kick-ass song is a uplifting tribute to people who died, but not before they left an impression on Carroll himself.
Funny how art reflects life sometimes… RIP JC
stay alive this weekend
This one is the fault of one of my mins. She planted it in my head yesteraday and I’ve (sadly) not been able to shake it. Posting it as song of the week will hopefully get it out of my skull.
This video is great because it was shot back in the days when a leaf blower and a bunch of leaves was all you needed to make a “bitchin” video. Plus, everybody either looked like Tears for Fears or Rick Astley or some bastard child of theirs.
whisper yourself into a scream this weekend…
