SOTD 8/8 Mitch All Together - Mitch Hedberg

So it's not a song, sorry but Mitch Hedberg is one of my favorite comedians of all time, definitely in my Top 3. I didn't become familiar with his stuff until a few months after he passed away, but since then I have listened to all his old material regularly. It never gets old. He's our generation's Steven Wright, I guess. So bummed that he could not still be making us laugh to this day. I love how Mitch wasn't polished, a little awkward, able to laugh at himself, but always always funny.

This is the entire Mitch All Together CD, wanted to change it up to maybe get some more people to love what this guy did. In an era where there are a lot of bullshit comedians that people think are genius ::coughDaneCook:: simple, but effective humor will always have a place.

Please enjoy.

SOTD 8/6 Real Life - Send Me an Angel

This song has ruled since I first heard it in the movie Rad. I was witness to many an 80's night crowd getting energized to it and dancing their brains out. One of my favorite 80's songs and one of my favorite songs, period. I heard it randomly on my iPhone this morning and it helped me get through the day a little easier. Enjoy here .

SOTD 8/5 Feeling Good - Nina Simone

I will be posting SOTD on my blog since it shows up in the Notes on FB anyways. My friend Leslie posted Michael Buble doing a passable cover of this song and I commented that Nina's is much better of course. And then today Hai's status reminded me of it. If perhaps one day you find yourself on a lovely beach before dawn, and can somehow play this song and time it for the horns to come in as the sun peeks over the horizon I'm sure you will achieve something close to nirvana on earth.

I think the first ditty I ever heard sung by her was "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" and was captivated by her voice and the soul behind it. Shanna put the "Love Me or Leave Me" on a mixtape back when we were young romantics, so that song will always have a special place in my heart too.

Also, thanks to Vince for putting me on to box.net. You can stream and download everything. I love the internet.

Grab this track here.

I love BC

Garret's bachelor party was a great success. I can't say much about it of course due to contractual obligations, but a great and mostly legal time was had by all. I just remember eating and drinking very well and never getting sick or feeling to shitty. Vancouver is filled with a huge stock of beautiful girls. Highest hot chick per capita in all of North America easily. I will grab my minSD card outta my camera and shove it into my laptop soon and see if there are any postable pics.

SIEfL #3

Oh man, I love Patrick Swayze. No homo. But yeah man, it's heartbreaking that dude is dying right now. This is one of my favorite songs, and yeah I like the movie Dirty Dancing, so F off. haha.

Songs I'm Embarrassed for Liking

Since Youtube is just such a cornucopia of awesome, shitty, great, amazing, stupid videos I've decided that everyday I will post a video of a song that I am embarrassed to enjoy/love. Everyone I know knows that I have an eclectic taste in music. The first entry is a song/video that I have always enjoyed, way more than the shitty but more successful version of the same song by Celine Dion. Meatloaf is the shit, and I remember when I first saw this video I fell in love with the female singer. sigh.

Yeah, so I will try to do these everyday, and maybe some of you like the the same song(s).
