Strange how these covers resemble each other in color and design and feel. Stranger still both have songs on them called/about "home". Freaky deaky weird, eh?

Thank you to The Lovely Linda™ for issuing such a fun challenge! It's amazing how image-oriented the music industry has become over the years. If you look back through the years at rock and other popular music forms, it doesn't take long to notice that most of the hit-makers are "body beautiful" types: the folks who were looking for somebody who " fit the suit ," so to speak. After the hit-making power of such skinny folk as Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis and Sandra Dee, the A&R reps for all the record labels started looking for [...]

To promote their not-so-successful new MP3-player Zune , Microsoft teamed up with Artist Direct and offers not less than 30 songs as free MP3s. Whilst I'm not sure if this will help to increase the sales (it doesn't work for me at least! :) ), I must admit that they've chosen some really great tracks. Here's my selection, and you can find the rest if you follow this link: http://www.artistdirect.com/fr eemp3s Weird Al Yankovic - Don't Download This [...]

Day 8 in a crazy attempt to post 5 Christmas songs every day till Christmas Carol Of The Bells is probably my favorite of the classic Christmas tunes. It's also known as the "Ukranian Bell Carol" and was first played to American audiences in 1921 at Carnegie Hall. It also seems to be the version that let's people get really creative with their renditions. Check out these 5 totally different versions arranged from shortest (1:18) to longest (6:19). John Williams - Carol Of [...]

Today in Music History: 2001 George Harrison dies at the age of 58 after a long battle with cancer. See in my last post I mentioned how moderate the weather was here and how it never snows and itrains a lot. Booyah, man did we get a whole buttload of snow. Shoulda kept me yapper shut. It started snowing Sunday morning. In this pic here it shows the beginning of our snow event from homercat's balcony, around noonish I think. Then around [...]

On Thursday night, I got to attend a private performance by Barenaked Ladies in New York. They were playing in a small studio at Music Choice . It was a very intimate experience, as the room was about the size of a 3-car garage with really high ceilings. They played a set about 30-40 minutes in length, consisting entirely of songs from their new album Barenaked Ladies Are Me , then finishing with their 1998 hit "One Week." I really liked the new material, which sounded [...]
[ed. note - lateness of the post is due to friggin' ezarchive.] Some of you dour indie folks may say there's no room for humorous music anymore, and that BNL are all played out, but Bon Ton is a staunch fan of Barenaked Ladies. And they have a new album out! It's called, "Barenaked Ladies Are Me." Which is technically true (at least in the shower). They're on tour as well (including Wash DC, Salt Lake City, and LA, so stops for everyone). Come on, don't be a [...]
I meant to post yesterday, but never got around to it.As a result, here's a bumper edition of my blog! The Mercury Music Prize was won by Arctic Monkeys.

He's seen a boost in sales of his album . Tenacious D are coming to Ireland! Hooky writes a [...]

Barenaked Ladies - Fight The Power The first song that I thought of when I saw that the current theme is "Protest" was the original version of Fight The Power, as done by Public Enemy. However, that seemed too easy, as did any of the other political rap songs from the late 80's and early 90's. Then I remembered thad Barenaked Ladies covered Fight The Power for the Coneheads Soundtrack, and I knew that I was set. Unsurprisingly, the song is not heavily featured in the movie, and [...]
First up is ELLEGARDEN who are a Japanese punk-rock band that sings in both Japanese and English. Their English is amazing, considering they're a Japanese band. This song is about not wanting to be a bunch of famous people, including Jimi Hendrix, Michael Jordan, and Brad Pitt. This song is very catchy because of the lyrics and also the music behind the song as a very rock-pop feel Download Wannabies Buy Bring Your Board here Next up is Barenaked Ladies with One Week. A very catchy [...]
