Jasmine ,'Power Play'
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.
Daisy, eMusic has one self-titled CVC album that came out late last year. This is the one you have, right?
Yep.
I think Jon is pretty wedded to his band (and I want more of their stuff as well) and Lou has her own stuff too. Maybe next time he has a break again they can do something.
Current obsession has been this [link]
Hmm - my antivirus software won't let me see that. Irritating!
Huh. It's just a youtube video. Lemme try to link another way. Try this page. 3rd video down (actually I like them all, but that's the one I linked to) [link]
From Wired - Best Album Art of All Time, Readers’ Choice Edition
eta: Oh, and Best Album Art of All Time
What I learned from that: Wired readers tend to like shitty music and art that belongs on the side of a 1978 Econoline.
I don't think Bowie or Coltrane qualify as shitty music.
What I learned from that:
Wired readers and writers don't listen to female artists.
I would argue for The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. [link]
I don't think Bowie or Coltrane qualify as shitty music.
Thus the use of "tend".
GBV are doing a proper tour after the Matador Vegas thing: [link]
Top 10: Ranking the best cars songs
8. "Bitchin' Camaro," Dead Milkmen
How did a song that includes a two-minute dialog about going to the shore and seeing a Doors cover band make it on our list? We're not entirely sure, but we dare you to listen to it and not want to do doughnuts on your neighbor's lawn.
...
And of course:
1. "Little Red Corvette," Prince
"Little Red Corvette" isn't the only song to equate a woman with a car, but it is probably one of the most blatantly sexual of those songs. Fortunately, Prince was smart enough to disguise the references just enough to get the song past the censors. Despite the innuendo, "Little Red Corvette" is still considered one of Prince's biggest hits and was often the first song that came to mind when we asked people to name their favorite car song.
Too bad they didn't include Robert Johnson's "Terraplane Blues"....
eta: I think I read somewhere that "Terraplane Blues" was the first song to us a car as a sexual metaphor. Does that make sense?
