“You’re alright but I’m here, darling, to enjoy the party. Don’t get too excited because that’s all you’ll get from me, hey. Yeah, I think you’re cute, but I think you should really know. I just came to say hello.”…..
Ladies, you know this guy. He’s the ‘too nice’ gentleman in your office. He’s so-so looking (cute in a nerdy, IT kinda way). Definitely not a hottie. It’s not like the first time you saw him you immediately wanted to jump on him (don’t know about you, but that last part happens rarely (Read more, Community hottie ahead…)
We might have another “Poker Face” on our hands. It’s ear-gasmic the first 20 times. Inevitably, its will be overplayed into annoying oblivion. One hit wonder, these guys? The song has already been featured in a Heineken commercial in the UK and a Mad Men promo in Australia, among others I’m sure. Sounds like a song from the 1920′s (ie. flappers and fringe). But this has the added bonus of contemporary sound and production (talking about the song here, not the video. Don’t even look at the video. Trust me. It’s trippy (Read more, Safety Dance ahead…)
You know a song is powerful when the very, very first time you listen to it you get goosebumps…or you cry…or you wet your pants. I’ve never experienced that last one, but it seems plausible. Music can move you to do many things. I’m not counting out weeing. This is for anyone who loves sappy relationship, country type songs. e.g. Lady Antebellum. For girls it’s a crier. Co-dependency abounds (Read more, Taylor Swift ahead…)
Attention guys (and all my fellow I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T chicas out there)!… You can relate to this song. Take a moment to recall that bitch (or bastard) who loved your money more than your great sense of humor. The bitch who was never satisfied with anything even though you tried your hardest to make everything bigger and better (including her boobs). The bitch who threatened (Read more, car fire ahead…)
Not quite my style, but I definitely appreciate it. These guys are from Leeds UK, England though you can’t detect that at all in their voices. They have a sound that may eventually get them play in the States. It’s a bit grungy. Think 1990′s, Nirvana, Foo Fighters. Not surprisingly, the lead singer idolizes…wait for it…Dave Grohl. I’m all for a grunge music revival, but can we please leave the over-sized flannel at home. They are not invited. So unflattering. Of course, back then, I didn’t mind because I wasn’t worried about showing off my assets. Totally different story these days.
Since by DVR went on medical leave, I’ve been catching my fave shows on hulu. I don’t mind the short commercials since they make it possible for me to watch for free. One in particular, though, is a thorn in my side…the Ink credit card commercial. It’s inordinately loud compared to the others. All I hear is “INK. WINE. CUPCAKES!”. If you’ve seen it then you will know exactly what I’m talking about. I have to actually reach for the mouse and turn it down. I get it. You want me to pay attention to your product. But what you’ve really done (Read more, hookup ahead…)
I’ve recently been attracted to this UK band. Their long awaited second album (debut was in 2007!), This Modern Glitch, is set for April 26th. It’s more synthy than the old stuff. “Jump Into the Fog” is full of exquisite lines. For example, making excuses for himself for picking up a not so hygienic female and taking her to a seedy hotel 1.)”I’m only here because I want to twist the structure of my average day” and 2.) “because I feel the day deserves a truly sordid end”. Imagine if a regular guy ever used (Read more, vampires ahead…)
Remember when bitches used to be a problem. Well, if you’re a real man they were never a problem just like Jay-Z originally said. Hugo is reiterating that in a blue grass/Mumford and Sons sort of style. A song with a banjo and the word bitch multiple times. Wow! It’s the purest of fun. If you listen to this and don’t smile then you need to reevaluate your life.
This one goes out to Ernie. You would be LYAO at this song. Miss you.
You know sometimes how you wake up and you haven’t a clue what the hell is going on. It gives you the heart racers. The process your brain goes through to figure out this riddle is funny. It’s solved with a series of rapid fire questions…am I in a random hotel room (no, I’m in my own comfy bed)…who is laying next to me (Read more, pickles ahead…)
So you want to be ahead of the curve. You want to be “that girl (or guy)” who’s in the know about up-and-coming alt artists. Then your sat nav is on the right course. This is better than winning Plinko. It’s ultra grand and you don’t have to kiss Bob.
Music is my lifeline. It’s why I get up in the morning and feed my cat. It’s why I wear sequined shoes and pretend I am a wood nymph (not the kind defined in Urban Dictionary; (Read more, tickling ahead…)
I’m not sure what kind of special fairy dust fell upon me when I came into this world. Maybe it was watermelon flavored or especially purple and sparkly. Whatever the case, I must be one of the luckiest people in the world. Wherever I go, whatever I do, I encounter the most extraordinary humans ever. Thank You Natasha, Charlie, Hannah, Ben, Sonia, Joel, Esther, and Adam for the best time ever! Again, how does this happen to me??? Someone or something shines (Read more, steroids ahead…)
Well, I’ll be out of touch for awhile. I’m going to a place of whimsy and wonder. A place unlike any other in the world. Will be nice to be unplugged for a time. Black Rock City here I come!
Please don’t tell anyone, but I was looking forward to the Gaga show at Lolla. I’ve heard so much about her outrageousness that I couldn’t wait to see it in person. I can’t say I was impressed. I liked and respected her more before I saw her show. Let’s recap the portion I saw before I decided to ditch and go to Perry’s:
I’m not into Perez’s celeb gossip. I have to admit I haven’t read his blog in years. I will brag that I was one of the first to know about him. I listen to a radio show that featured him back in the day. MJ would call him for the gossip and wake him up (since we are on eastern time and Perez on Cali time). He never seemed organized but was always entertaining. I remember Perez saying he didn’t even have a TV b/c he couldn’t afford it. Look at him now!!! (Read more, social anxiety ahead…)
