1998 was a great year. Here are some of its best songs. One of the most recognizable rifts of our generation. The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony I get knocked down.. Chumbawumba - Tubthumping Kinda depressing, but a classic. Third Eye Blind [...]
Yeah we're a little behind. Anyway, in light of this trailer I saw last night, which brought me way way back...thought I'd supply you with some 902s alt-rock a la American Pie the original (remember when the music we listened to involved real instruments?). Harvey Danger - "Flagpole Sitta" The Toadies - "Possum Kingdom" Blink 182 - "Dumpweed" Green Day - "Brain Stew" [...]
Do you want to hear "The Big Bang Theory Theme", "One Week", and other Barenaked Ladies songs that you maybe kinda-sorta remember? Are you too lazy or disinterested to track down the original albums or buy the individual tracks online? Then this greatest hits compilation is for you. With a 20-year career under their belts and a few memorable songs, it might seem like a good time for a greatest hits compilation from the Barenaked Ladies. On the other hand, the band's biggest hit, "One Week", dates all the way back to 1998. Furthermore, BNL covered a lot of [...]
Filed under: News , R.I.P. AP Jack Layton, the leader of Canada's New Democratic Party and the country's Official Opposition, died Aug. 22 at his Toronto home after a battle with cancer. He was 61. Layton's sudden passing has rocked the nation, with musicians like Broken Social Scene 's Kevin Drew and more taking to Twitter to reflect upon his life and the amazing man he was (which you can get a sense from while [...]
The elderchild and her smaller sister are growing up fast, as kids are wont to do. They don't need kidfolk so much anymore - are starting to make their own choices about music and listenability, and tend to prefer playfulness and performability to nuance or lyrical narrative, a trend which I suppose will linger until they hit their teens and begin to look for ways to identify themselves as "other". They play unattended, and wander the folk festival grounds on their own; they do musicals, as their parents do, and sing the songs around the house for [...]
Ottawa - Sometimes, you listen to something and wonder. I don't know why but I queued up Barenaked Ladie's If I had a Miillion Dollars this afternoon whilst working. As I listened to it, I started thinking. This song is about twenty years old, in a different economic age. Is it still realistic? Why did I think this? I don't know. Maybe being in Ottawa this past week has put me into a more bureaucratic mindset. Let's assume that the setting for this song is Toronto, since the band itself is from Toronto. If [...]
At some point in the Nineties, I became fascinated by "rock" covers of hip-hop songs. For example, there's the Gourds' cover of "Gin and Juice," the Barenaked Ladies' version of "Fight the Power" and Dynamite Hack's "Boyz-N-The Hood." It was around '91 when rap music really took off nationally, and we started to see artists like MC 900 Ft. Jesus and Bloodhound Gang mix alternative music and hip-hop elements. What interested me was the recontextualization of lyrics. Let's face it – almost all of hip-hop is rooted in a specific [...]
Muso's Guide is working with Vodafone VIP across festival season - here's the latest in our jaunts: Nostalgia is a destructive beast, particularly when it stultifies engagement with what the present-day brings. What's more, it can blind-side people into glamourised over-emoting of what may never have been how they recall it. And it's with this kind of admittedly dubious overthinking that I approach Hyde Park's gates for the third day of Hard Rock Calling , longing for more personality and drama in exchange for the impressive tally of nothingness racked up over the [...]

Filed under: News Getty Images (2) | YouTube Last night (May 2), Canadians watched the results of the country's federal election with the Conservatives achieving a majority government. An array of Canadian acts have weighed in on the outcome, some offering more pointed barbs than others: "When you are forced to choose between foolish men, sometimes you must believe in the power of the MAGICAL MOUSTACHE," Broken Social Scene singer Kevin Drew [...]
By Emily J. Minor I live with two grown men who are gaga over music. Our son , now 20, was getting an music allowance back way back in early middle school. Forget cash for taking out the garbage, how about another Gorillaz download? My husband - Mr. After Hours Music Proprietor Marty Minor himself - has resisted the iPhone for one simple reason: he couldn't put all his music on it. This might seem like one of those "blessings" all the hyper-happy like [...]
Not throwing it back too far this week. Only to 1999. Wow, that's still 12 years ago. If 19702s rock was considered classic rock in the 902s, is 902s alt rock considered classic now 20 years later? Just wondering. Anyway, here's an odd Youtube recording of BNL's "One Week." It's part of their Bathroom Sessions on Youtube. The quality is really poor but the reason I'm posting is because I really enjoy the slightly modified lyrics. Hope you do too. Barenaked Ladies - One Week (Bathroom Sessions) [ YSI ] [...]
