Thriller a la Lego!
JUST AWESOME
I'm sure most of you will get bored pretty quickly, a nd what you really want to see are the Zombie lego men dancing in rows so skip ahead to the 8 minute 15 second mark to get your fix. The whole thing is worth watching though. The amount of work that was put into making this video is amazing.

This is why I love teh 80's so much!
Major Tom (Earth Below) - Peter Schilling
K, check out the wicked yellow jumpsuit the guitar player is wearing. Love teh synchronized head nods and stuff. This is probably my favorite 80's song, well the english version. I thought I would post teh German version for a twist.
p.s. is that fuckin' E.T at the end?

Par Example
Some are lakes - Land of Talk
I friggin love this band, from Montreal.
Another? Sure.
Mariella - Kate Nash.
Not the real video, but cute
I got really cool glasses yesterday, but let's talk about music instead.
Ok so there's a website called http://www.100hitz.com/ that I discovered about 2 years ago. This is the only way I've been able to keep up with new awesome music. The indie station is wicked. Most songs are totally up my alley, and I have discovered many of my favorite new bands/artists.
I also dig the 90's alternative station, you know, the good old days, when music was good :)
There are like 8 other stations, but I haven't checked any of them out.
The only thing you might not like, is that every 10 songs or so, there's a short commercial. It's alright though cause sometimes it's for a movie, or hilarious condom commercials!
oh, p.s. you can skip songs that you don't like.

Guess I'm doing fine.
There's a blue bird at my window
I can't hear the songs he sings
All the jewels in heaven
They don't look the same to me
I just wade the tides that turned
Till I learn to leave the past behind
It's only lies that I'm living
It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing
Guess I'm doing fine
All the battlements are empty
And the moon is laying low
Yellow roses in the graveyard
Have no time to watch them grow
Now I bade a friend farewell
I can do whatever pleases me
It's only lies that I'm living
It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing
Guess I'm doing fine
Press my face up to the window
To see how warm it is inside
See the things that I've been missing
Missing all this time
It's only lies that I'm living
It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing
Beck
I can't hear the songs he sings

It's only you that I'm losing

And the moon is laying low
Yellow roses in the graveyard
Have no time to watch them grow

It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing

Sugar lumps.
One of my fave tv shows is Flight of the Conchords.
The second season started this month, and it's friggin awesome.
Here is a song from the most recent episode.
Caution: It's a catchy tune, you might find yourself singing about your sugar lumps, even if you don't have any!

Music is not my boyfriend....a compilation of music.
Remember that song? I HATE IT!
BUT... what I'm not missing is a great compilation of music that I've posted on my blog for the past 2.5 years. I've been labelling everything. When I post a song, I label it under music, when I post something I think is funny, I label it under funny. So by clicking on music, it will take you to everything I've ever posted under the label of music for the past 2.5 years. Which I love. Of course this does not include all my faves. But it gives a really good indication of what I've been listening to.
P.S. some videos may not work on youtube anymore.....but still, worth checking out.
For me, it takes me back to various moments of my life over the past 2.5 years.
I started listing some of the moments, but it got really lame quickly. So I decided to stop, cause only I will feel those moments, you won't, unless you're Erinne Henry...cause she was there.
BUT you might discover some really wicked tracks.....

My most recent obsession.
Ya, been rockin' out to The Airborne Toxic Event for the past few months on my iphone......they were on Letterman a couple weeks ago. Fuckin fantastic! I totally love how the violinists are completely rockin' out around the 2:38 point. The chick, needs to work on her stage face. Seriously. Jesus! Ok I just realised that the video is kind of blurry so the awful face she makes is hard to see.

Kim & Jessie - M83
This song totally rocks. It sounds so 80's I love it.
Erinne and I checked out this band about 4 years ago at Lee's Palace in Toronto. Such a great show. This track is taken fromM83's most recent album Saturdays=Youth.
These guys are from France, pronounced, fraun-ce, the french way :)
Fraaaaaaun-shhhhhh!

It's all right - Travelling Wilburys
Hey, probably the best lyrics EVER.
Well its all right, riding around in the breeze
Well its all right, if you live the life you please
Well its all right, doing the best you can
Well its all right, as long as you lend a hand
You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring
Waiting for someone to tell you everything
Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring
Maybe a diamond ring
(chorus 2)
Well its all right, even if they say youre wrong
Well its all right, sometimes you gotta be strong
Well its all right, as long as you got somewhere to lay
Well its all right, everyday is judgement day
Maybe somewhere down the road aways
Youll think of me, and wonder where I am these days
Maybe somewhere down the road when somebody plays
Purple haze
(chorus 3)
Well its all right, even when push comes to shove
Well its all right, if you got someone to love
Well its all right, everythingll work out fine
Well its all right, were going to the end of the line
Dont have to be ashamed of the car I drive
Im just glad to be here, happy to be alive
It dont matter if youre by my side
Im satisfied
(chorus 4)
Well its all right, even if youre old and grey
Well its all right, you still got something to say
Well its all right, remember to live and let live
Well its all right, the best you can do is forgive
(chorus 5)
Well its all right, riding around in the breeze
Well its all right, if you live the life you please
Well its all right, even if the sun dont shine
Well its all right, were going to the end of the line
Well its all right, riding around in the breeze
Well its all right, if you live the life you please
Well its all right, doing the best you can
Well its all right, as long as you lend a hand
You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring
Waiting for someone to tell you everything
Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring
Maybe a diamond ring

And then there's this song, it makes me sick, almost.
GOD, I can tell you a kazillion feelings I have about this song, this video, where do I start. ....
I once fell and banged my forehead, while listening to this song....in the winter.
But I got up, cause I had to get home cause it was freezing out, and cause it was retarded that I fell.
BUT the best reasons are:
a. Concert for George. If you don't own it, buy it. (I don't own it now, but I used to, but I want it again.)
b. Geore Harrison's son, Dhani, who looks exactly like George did, when he was playing with the Beatles back in the day plays during most of the songs on the DVD, even though he was only supposed to play one song, but was asked to stay on for the rest of the concert....he plays during this one. (he's the one who looks exactly like George.
he's wearing the white top, if you don't get the reference.)
c. Paul Mcartney and Ringo Star back on stage....oh and Eric Clapton plays during most tunes)
d. Uh 3 drummers, awesome, just as awesome as i thought the Portishead live in Roseland concert was. Even if you're not a portishead fan, YOU should become one after seeing that performance, but we're talking about the Concert for George.
Just buy it, or download it. It's got tons of Indian music too, from Ravi Shankar, and his daugther. If you think that's gay, check this out.
Singer, Jeff Lynne from the Traveling Wilbury's....you know, these guys:
Geoge Harrison
Jeff Lynne
Roy Orbison
Tom Petty
Bob Dylan
Uhhhhh a.k.a.....the ones who did this song:

Words of love
Ok I have an obsession with the Beatles, (obviously if you've read my blog from the start) but also the Mama's and papa's and Fleetwood Mac. So there.
So hard to find on Youtube.
But I love this song, and maybe it's just the beginning of the song that I love the most, and then the melody, not so much the lyrics.
Words of love, soft and tender, wont win her, ANYYYYYYMOREEEEEEEEEEEE.
ok you get it

I'm lookin' over, Neptune City!
Cuz, he's the only one, I've ever waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanted.
I suppose that's, just the way, it is.
Fuck, such a classy lady. I WISH....
Ya I know. I've blogged about Nicole Atkins many times before, but she's just one of those artists I just can't get enough of. She's got this wicked style, totally original kind of old school vibe which I love. You know like Amy Winehouse, but withought the fucked-up-ness. I think Amy Winehouses' music is amazing and probably the best female vocalist to come out, like I wanna say forever....her as a person is retardedly messed up, but I love her sound, I love her style...
kinda like Kathleen Edwards, Bjork, Portishead, Lamb, Mazzy Star....
Once again, I wish.
