Either someone get me a paper bag or someone make Frank Iero less adorable.
It's a cute-head interview during the photo shoot for the NYLON cover. Gerard is talking about their look, as Gerard does.
Warning: Bob is here, but he looks sad.
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.

As sad as it is, I don't think he's a successful poster child for health care reform. A better candidate is one who is following all of society's "rules" about the way we're supposed to work (full time job, not quoted saying "why work when I don't have to?", etc) and still can't get affordable health care. There are millions of candidates who fit *that* bill.
I'm not saying that he should be a poster child, I'm just saying that it sucks.
Oh no, I totally get that. My comments were more along the line of "I would totally link to this on Facebook and anywhere else I can get an audience of well-meaning but ignorant people I know, but I know they'd dismiss it." That's all.
It makes me sick that we don't have universal healthcare and I'd like to get rid of insurance companies, period.
Does anyone happen to have a copy of "The Moderns" soundtrack? For years it was my Sunday morning music, and evidently I gave away or sold or lost the cd. I'd love to hear it again, and it's out of print.
This is a cool song and video: Florence and the Machine: “Dog Days Are Over”
Damn, is Florence Welch one seriously glorious culture vulture in this video, or what?
From the production team’s official press statement: “Florence is the shamanic leader of a surreal orchestra where spiritual elation explodes into smokey psychedelic anarchy. Each musical element of the song is personified by a group of colorful characters that combine 60’s girl groups, Hinduism, gospel choirs, drum circles, paganism and pyrotechnics. Florence is a painted primal force of nature that whips a religious experience into a riot.” Yep. And those blue and gold Andorian Motown beehive girls definitely take it to the next level.
Have downloaded the EP but have not listened to it yet.
Lungs was one of my fave albums of last year. I love "Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)" the most but the entire album is excellent through and through.
Hank Williams got a Pulitzer. Sort of. [link]
A posthumous special citation to Hank Williams for his craftsmanship as a songwriter who expressed universal feelings with poignant simplicity and played a pivotal role in transforming country music into a major musical and cultural force in American life.
Random Paul McCartney & Wings question: In the song "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey", is Admiral Halsey the Admiral Halsey of the US Navy (of WW-II fame)?
eta: The Admiral Halsey of the US Navy was quite famous in the US during WW-II, but I don't now how well known he was in Great Britain....
