I got the car commercial blues yesterday when I heard Tones on Tail, Go!.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Art Crawl!!!
I love Go! I have it on my itunes.
That 80s All Songs Considered was excellent. Thanks for bringing it up.

I'm partial to Converse low-tops, too. I mostly wear a black pair, but I still have my old worn-out pairs of brown ones and mustard-yellow ones.

I love Go! too but it's very specific to a certain time (and a certain person) in my life that hearing it in a car commercial is jarring enough to cause the blues. There have been a lot of commercials (usually for cars) that do that to me. The last one was off Black Market Clash.

Mad Ave seems to have glommed on to the Grosse Point Blanke soundtrack.

and I graduated high school the same year as Martin Q. Blank. Same year as Romy and Michelle, too. 1997 was a weird year for me, cinematically.

Your taste in music says a lot about you:
Fans of heavy metal music are gentle, creative people who are at ease with themselves, which makes them very similar to fans of classical music.
That's the finding of a new study at Scotland's Heriot-Watt University of the link between peoples' personalities and their choice of music.
from further in the article:
Jazz fans tend to be creative and outgoing, with high self-esteem, in keeping with the innovative and sociable nature of the music.
Country western fans were found to be hard-working, but introverted, fitting with the blue-collar image of country music.
The research concluded soul music lovers are a well-rounded bunch — creative, outgoing, gentle, at ease with themselves and with high self-esteem.
Rap fans are outgoing and far from gentle, while indie music lovers lack both self-esteem and the work ethic.

The CBC is a bit behind. I saw that article last month somewhere else.

They must be indie music fans, and lacking in the work ethic.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Okay, so I like pretty much everything, but indie would be furthest down on the list. Yet I lack both a work ethic and self-esteem. I'm so confused.
