End of year guilty pleasure is...

Squirrel Bait with Kick the Cat!



Lyrics:

It's a harsh toke buddy but you're messing with your life when the sun's shining hot the devil's beating your wife you can take to the window to see where she's at you can do all this and kick the cat I was feeling too good it wasn't right at all and it smelled like gasoline and it smelled like exhaust I need to get my head on straight so I can screw it up all the better next time the heap the home the bed whatever you'd say it's been it hold the smell and you won't soon slide back in you can take to the roof to see where she's at you can do all this and kick the cat.

We have ONE YEAR to prepare for this...

Back in 1983, 2016 seemed like THE FUTURE. Now...



...it's the present. Even Traficant has been beamed up.

At least Rick Springfield put those old Buck Rogers costumes to good use. Or are they from Space Academy?

Hey, remember Jason of Star Command?

I'm tucking my pants into my boots RIGHT NOW.

Some Germaican Reggae For Ya

Hilarious. Lyrics.

"Please ignore my vacant stares"

Ba da ba da ba, ba ba ba da da....

"Adorable illusion"

This came out shortly after Star Wars, so I'm guessing that Debbie Harry borrowed Carrie Fisher's lip gloss for this video.

Best song I could find about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

"So what do you want of me?
Got no cure for misery,
And if I go around with you,
You know that I'll get messed up, too -- with you."

Cata Cata Cata Caterpillargirl

Another one of those haunting Cure songs permanently burnt into my brain. Pretty cool DIY super-eightish vid.

May sound funny

Thunderbusters

Whoa. This mashup kicks. Never saw it before.

Talk about "crossing the streams"!



Hopefully mashups like this will help heal our many racial divisions in America.

I've loved and goodbyed

Forgot about the little bit of piano at the end. Now the video makes sense.

Blog Mathematics

When you have limited time, you have to use bloggers math to decide how to post on multiple topics at one time. Plus I know you're all too busy to read my crap all day long. So, for example, adding this story about John Cusack calling Obama an asshole to this story about rabbits chewing through ignition wires at Denver Airport yields the following, much more interesting, video:

You call yourself intense

Check out that last frames with the geeks in the sweater vests. Looks like they're playing a lunch gig at Microsoft.

Now it's stuck in my head

Hey, what's with the grey shirt?

Here's the studio recording:

Great Europe cover

This dude is a great, undiscovered talent. His solo interpretation is immediately recognized due to the ubiquity of this tune on the FM airwaves of the late eighties.

"Seen us" is definitely the best rhyme for Venus.

"Two blankets and a bookshelf...."

Yes--the Rave-ups, Positively Lost Me. Love this tune. "Then you lost my confidence." I remember being totally cheesed that Shut Up wasn't on the Pretty in Pink soundtrack.

"Somewhere Between the Soul and Soft Machine"

I loved this tune. I wasn't Catholic when it came out; I just thought that Kyrie Eleison was one of J. S. Bach's famous works that everyone else ripped off.
