Music Monday

I was in Los Angeles last week for my birthday so that's why I didn't post a song last Monday.  Here are two tunes to make up for it.

Stereophonics, "Maybe Tomorrow"  featured in Wicker Park (shitty movie but great music)

Sweetback featuring Amel Larrieux, "You Will Rise"

Trentemoller, "Miss you"

More evidence proving the superiority of felines

Like this post I did earlier this year explaining why cats are better than dogs, the image below will amuse you (I hope) and convince you that cats put those old mutts to shame.

Sorry the picture hangs over the edge.  If I made it any smaller on this stupid website the print would be too small to read.

This is now my new favorite song.  I first heard it faintly in the background of the recent cheesy (pun intended) Velveeta commercials and I tracked it down.  I love it.  It's very LOTR.  I'd rather shoot myself than eat Velveeta but the commercials are hilarious and this song rocks.  Great marketing.

 

John Powell, "Mystic Prelude"

I miss the good ol' days....

....when people still used punctuation.

My sworn enemy

I have nightmares that this thing might come back one day.

Look, you can see it in his eyes. A promise to return....... with a vengeance......

Yet another Englishman...

Like my previous 2 posts about my grandfather and John Lennon, respectively, here's another Brit I'd like to highlight this evening.  (Thrice is the charm!) 

Neither the poem nor his delivery is perfect, but I love the message that he is sending:  Being smart is sexy.

Poet Mark Grist, "Girls Who Read"

Having a British Grandfather means hearing these kinds of statemens regularly...

Yesterday on the road a driver cut him off, and he yelled, "You miserable sod!"

This.

Fuck yeah Little Red Riding Hood

Say goodbye to the docile young ingenue from the fairy tale you grew up with.  This chick is badass and I hope my daughter is just like her.

   

I love this animation too.  I know it's not Anime but the blood reminds me of the Japanese cartoons that I used to watch with my father and brother as a kid.

This song sounds so '80s, even though it's not. I first heard this on the now canceled HBO series "How to Make it in America." Why do good shows get pulled off the air?

Creepy vid, by the way.  Besides zombies, children can be the scariest things ever.

M83, "Midnight City"

My version of p0rn

 
   


What more can I say?  This is every bibliophile's dream.
