Song of the Day: “Spirits in the Material World” by The Police

In theory, I should like “Ghost in the Machine” the best of all albums by The Police.  It’s got a very eclectic set, some sax, and Stewart Copeland, who is one of my favorite drummers. But the songs don’t really stick in my head as much as the ones from Synchronicity.  So much for overanalyzing. […]

Song of the Day “Backwards Traveller / Cuff Link” by Wings

Okay… I’m surprisingly alert considering I literally raced around work from around 10:00 to 4:00.  I mean racing literally… I had to get shit done. So I rewarded myself with another phone sex call.  I’ll have to get into some more detail about how these things shake down in another post.  The girl I talked […]

Song of the Day: “Mac the Knife” by Louis Armstrong

Don’t you hate it when you’re so fucking tired (and sore) that you lie down early for bed, only to find out that you are now wide fucking awake and that there is no chance in hell you will get to sleep any time soon? Sigh. I figure that while my body is still tired […]

Song of the Day: “Sweet Emotion” by Aerosmith

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet Emooooooooooooooootiooooooooooon! This was the song that made me fucking love Aeroschmidt.  Not so much newer Aeroschmidt, but the old OLD Aeroschmidt. Aeroschmidt is a lesson all about drugs.  When you play rock and roll, drugs are good… up to a point.  When you go clean and make a comeback, you’re not as interesting as […]

Song of the Day: “Another Night” by Camel

Not a lot of people have even heard of Camel, and that’s a shame because they were a great band for most of the 70s.  They were a great band through the 90s too, even with only one original member remaining.  Let’s not speak of the 80s. I’ve had a busy day today, so this […]

Song of the Day: “Cut the Mullet” by Wesley Willis

Because I’m installing Windows XP and Ubuntu (for dual-booting) on a friend’s new computer for them, I don’t have a lot of time to write about this song today… which is okay because there’s not much to say about it.  Its structure is simple.  Its message even simpler. You gotta love Wesley Willis, rest in […]

Song of the Day: “Give Up The Funk” by Parliament

We want the funk. Give up the funk. We need the funk. We gotta have the funk. So please to be supplying the funk in said prescribed quantities and amounts for immediate relief, etc. Funk is supplied here by THE best funk band of all time… one of two bands that were pretty much the […]

Song of the Day: ”Marathon” by Rush

As I was waiting outside for 90 fucking minutes for the bus today, and as my toes were going numb, this wonderful song from 1985’s “Power Windows” came on.  It suddenly became easy to tap my toes to keep warm as the music started. I used to hate this Rush album.  Back when I was […]

Song of the Day: “Strange World” by Iron Maiden

Okay, despite a day that took 90 minutes longer to be over, and despite the fact that it is still really fucking cold outside, and despite the fact that several key retarded people where I work continue to aggravate me, raise my blood pressure, and make my job extremely infuriatingly, frustratingly difficult for me… I […]

The joys of a mind of mush

I was all set to start my “Song of the Day” feature today.  That’s when shuffle on the iPod brings up one of those truly excellent songs that I just have to share with people. Today, it was “Strange World” by Iron Maiden.  Great song… but… uh… I can’t think of anything else but the […]
