LOVE songs you LOVE

Nice tune.
They have a sound reminicent of The Smith's.
Always liked them.

Next up I will post a video from the singer whose portrayal after her death brought the world Jennifer Lopez.
Yes, I realize she was a "Fly Girl" first on In Living Color but the role of Selena, the mexicana who was murdered by an obsessed housekeeper and assistant of hers.
I wonder what fate would have held in store for her had her career and life not been cut short...

Evenin',

After all these submissions...you'd think we'd be scraping the bottom of the barrel...but no.
The next tune comes from the OST to a underground movie called Ghost World. It was originally based on an independant comic book series (a good one many think) that failed to capture the feel of what the comics creator originally envisioned. It still had a few decent (and sometimes unusual) songs on it's soundtrack.
Skip James was one of them...



I'd rather be the devil, to be that woman man
I'd rather be the devil, to be that woman man
Aw, nothin' but the devil, changed my baby's mind
Was nothin' but the devil, changed my baby's mind
I laid down last night, laid down last night
I laid down last night, tried to take my rest
My mind got to ramblin', like a wild geese
From the west, from the west
The woman I love, woman that I loved
Woman I loved, took her from my best friend
But he got lucky, stoled her back again
But he got lucky, stoled her back again

-Peace-

Evenin',

Home again, home again jiggity-jig.
Let's see what remains to be posted shall we?

I'm sorry, dude...but this post deserves two stars and a flag but I haven't the ability to grant either.
Cheers anyways!

One last memory before beddy-bye.
In keeping with The Blues, I'm gonna go out with a little John Lee...

Best live version, I from Conan.

Very well then...let the festivities begin!

Feeling for something mellow now.
Maybe something 60's...

I love Pandora radio. Found these guys on the avett brothers station

RUFFREADY

Evenin' Sir,

I was wondering where you'd been skulking.
I'm sure I don't have to mention which tune this post reminds me of...but I'll give you a hint.
The band's name sounds like "Urge Overkill"...



-Peace-

RUFFREADY

DIRTY, ROTTEN, FILTHY, STINKING!!!

A-ahem...sorry, I meant "cool tune".



A band like that cries out for a double dose...



I tried to resist the urge but the need to go off-topic was too strong!
It's their best song IMO.



-Peace-

One more for the road...
I think the director shoulda been flogged for his hide the heavy one in the background approach. Don't you just love (re: loathe) pop music saying "if you're overweight your just scenery"?
What that must have done to her self-esteem.

"Just pan over her and focus on the other two..."



-Peace and Love-

Morning,

No more D-bag directors.
How about a video that doesn't exploit the female band members?
In this case a piece from a musical score to a favorite movie of mine...The Crow.
This was the movie score that put Graeme Revell on the map for me.
With vengence complete, Eric Draven returns to the grave of his lost love to be reunited with her.
I found it to be a very touching scene.
It has no lyrics and doesn't need any.
The first half of the tune posted is actually called Rain Forever.
The part I refer to is actually the last half of the song.
It can still bring a tear to my eye.

Damien Jurado's music always hits me right in the feelers. Truly one of the greatest storytellers in music today.

"I must have had a hundred nightmares, of you falling asleep at the wheel."

Jurado, huh?
Worth looking into I say.
What can I mess up the day with?
I know...



-Peace-

One last melody before I get on with the day.
How about something a little Sublime?
