Thanks all!
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.
Bjork's new video for 'Mutual Core' makes geology look downright perverted
This stunning new video for "Mutual Core" makes us wish we had Bjӧrk for a geology teacher. Buried waist-deep in sand and surrounded by dancing rocks, she schools us in the ways of seasonal shifts and the shuffling of tectonic plates. But as the Atlantic ridge drifts to counteract the distance between herself and the object of her desire, the sedimental layers are ruptured by the sexual tension, what results in an explosion of volcanic activity. Science has never been so sexy.
The video was directed by Andrew Thomas-Huang, and the song can be found on Bjӧrk's latest album, Biophilia.

Is Amazon still doing its 25 days of free holiday downloads thing? I can't seem to find it this year.
Article in The Atlantic about the Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah".
I hadn't realized that a book had been written about the history of that song's rise to tv/film domination.
Dave Brubeck died. He was 91.

It's here. It was hard to find this year.
Thanks Amy!
If you need to find it again, on the homepage of the MP3 store, in the sidebar on the left, it's "Free Holiday Songs" under the header Holiday Music.
Is this the creepiest love song ever? (I'm linking only to the lyrics,cause the music is some of the dullest ever, which makes it creepier.)
"If I could Light the world, We could sit And watch it burn. We could fall asleep inside the glow"
and also "If I could Take you in, Feeling you deep Beneath my skin Then I could Slip away With you as a poison in my veins"
Note this is Blake Sheldon's "Over". Well known mainstream country artist. Until this I always thought of him as extremely dull, but harmless. Now I think of him as dull and creepy.
Poor writing. But also my reaction to those sentiments is "stay the hell away from me."
