Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
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.
Aw, sad. He was a great singer.
The Blackberry commercials with Tune-Yards are really messing with my head.
Of interest to many Buffistae, I expect:
[The Robot Chicken Star Wars special] airs the week before their latest Christmas special, which features Superman and Santa reenacting the famous race between Supes and the Flash.
Then the season itself starts up, and they've got a fresh set of satirical targets. Seth Green's favorite sketch from the new season has the provocative title "Blue Rabbits Fucking", which features the N'avi (and everything else on Pandora) getting down to an R&B slow jam sung by Fallout Boy's Patrick Stump.
I listened to The Hazards of Love on the airplane home, and holy crap, what a great album. I just ordered the CD so I can listen to it as a continuous piece of music without the breaks in between tracks.

Mmmm.
Well, The Only Hope For Me Is You has leaked. Or, you know, "leaked".
The Only Hope For Me Is You
Mmmmmm.
I've missed these dudes.
And, somehow, they've got me missing California deserts in just one promo and two songs. I know that they visuals have influenced it, but they've got some sort of sound that I must associate with that place going on as well.
Are you saying My Chem is turning into the Eagles?
