“I Should Have Known Better” – She & Him (Zoey Deschanel & M. Ward)
Beatles done alt-country style. Sweet. Zoey D = the next June Carter Cash?
Other singles (but not covers) I’m diggin’:
The Submarines “Honeysuckle Weeks”
You know I’m a sucker for boy/girl trade-off/combined vocals.
And awesome lyrics: Love is a swimming pool with no bottom / We’ve got to hold on, the water is risin’…
And boppy silly rhythms. La la la la la.
Yay!
Substantialiscious.
Found on the back of the Snickers I am having for dinner. I’m glad to see someone else rocking the “aliscious” suffix, it’s one I’m quite fond of myself and often use.
That’s right, I’m having a Snickers for dinner. As the Eggplant might say “Fuck you, weight gain!”
…you slammed through my life like a screendoor in a hurricane wind…
-Girlyman “Postcards from Mexico”
I don’t need the whole bird, just a feather will do…
From you…
-Meg Hutchinson “Whole Bird” (from Come Up Full)
There’s only four seasons but these feelings are always here…
-Joe Purdy “Only Four Seasons” (from You Can Tell Georgia)
Tell me this Naomi Campbell/Lizard “Thriller” Sobe Life ad is not totally awesome. Because I love it.
“Mr. Pitiful” Matt Costa
This song is so bouncy and fun, I DARE you not to at least WANT to dance when you hear it…
Why would a girl with a bum foot, bum knee, and sore back decide to walk home? (45 minutes)
Retorical Question of the Night
Does (uncooked) rice go bad? If it’s been at least 10 years since you bought it, will it kill you if you cook it now?
(Rhetorical because I’m eating it anyway so we’ll find out.)
Saw Julie Louis-Dreyfus shopping on the side streets of downtown Kyoto yesterday afternoon.
