completely on a whim, as inspiration goes, at 2am i created a new mix (and booklet covers). i was pleased to see my Member Playlist on the front page today. that was a pleasant surprise. most of the songs have been featured in my :song of the day" thread in my forum.
My Culture 1 Giant Leap (feat Maxi Jazz & Robbie Williams)
i owe today's song to 'the tube' eating my honey nut cheerios, i am graced with maxi jazz singing on 'my culture' (also featuring robbie williams). they guest on 1 Giant Leap's track from 2002?! and i never knew it existied until now.
Get Myself Into It The Rapture
Get Myself Into It by The Rapture; next to the who's album, the most eagerly anticipated release this fall for me. the video and song are so addictive. evidently, the video is to spoof a jessica simpson video from a roller rink. roller rinks are chic again?!
Danke Schoen Wayne Newton
The classic parade scene in ferris bueller's day off starts with this song. fantastic. this one's for arya as she has NEVER seen this masterpiece.
A Man In A Purple Dress The Who
today's song is A Man In A Purple Dress by the Who on their just released album, their first in 24 years. Saw them perform this opening night of their world tour. a great lambasting of the Pope. so simple and beautiful it is.
Something More Than This October Project
been a bit melancholy?
i think this'll start or at least be the cornerstone for my final mix for a friend that i am losing.
she drives cross country and, for the most part, alone. with only her thoughts and doubts and fears in losing what she has for something more.
Crazy Alanis Morissette
her cover of the not-too-long-ago Seal song. the video makes this song so mean and hard rather than Seal's plea; it's more desperate and immediate.
Save It For Later The English Beat
by the fantastic English Beat. caught a recent live vid from them on the tube of this song. i can't believe i haven't seen these guys in 25 years. i first knew of the beat from sting wearing their shirt in the 'dont stand so close to me' video. absolutely fantastic song.
Back To The Sea The Futureheads
off their new one. harmony is great for them and this showcases some of their better "futureheads sound"
Don't Stop Brazilian Girls
brazilian girls live totally sold me on them. i mean, 60 years olds, no kidding, were dancing to this. full on, bumpin', hands in the air. you gotta respect that.
Interlude Bizarre Love Triangle New Order
in the middle of this perfect song, the accompanying video decides to break into this little rant. a breather, perhaps, to appreciate how great this song is.
Ice Cream New Young Pony Club
this is the intel core 2 duo song with the chick dancing. infectious.
U + Ur Hand Pink
saw the video for this. her duet on the previous album with Peaches seems to have awoken a nice dirty woman. Pink and Bif Naked musta been separated at birth. either that or chick-rock all sounds the same
Say It Right Nelly Furtado
with much fanfare, Nelly and Timbaland dropped "Promiscuous" on us like a ton of bricks. one of the top tracks of 2006. things got quite for awhile but now this song resurfaced with a nice video and shows how great the producing is on their collaboration.
Feel Good Inc. Gorillaz
fantastic song. seriously one of the best crafted pop songs in the last 5 years. you may not be into brit-pop, you generally may not like hip hop, but DAMN does that Reeses taste good!
Don't Drop Bombs Liza Minnelli with the Pet Shop Boys
my friend jimmy loaded that one and a ton of crap broadway show tunes up on his myspace as revenge, but i liked this one!
According To Plan I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness
good, head-bobbing, foot-tapping song.
Martyr Depeche Mode
great guitar hook.
Kidnap The Sandy Claws She Wants Revenge
a 'robotic' take on the Nightmare Before Christmas classic, Kidnap the Sandy Claws. i illustrated the masks for Lock, Shock, and Barrel for the Placebo/SWR show recently. i had hoped to encourage them to play the song at the show.
