TUESDAY IS SONG STUCK IN YOUR HEAD DAY!

[Dewar]

I realize it's not Tuesday, but this song got stuck in my head on a Tuesday, and it's still in there on Wednesday...

 

Bah, failed at imbedding the youtube link. Lemme try and fix this. Nope, still failing at this....

Like Dewar, I have had one song stuck in my head since Tuesday...so I figured posting it hear might exorcise the admittedly awesome demon that has been stuck with me for days now.

 

 

ount my fingers ten
Dressed to kill and think again
Count my fingers nine
Do the math your sacrifice
Son of a bitch should bleed awhile

Fighting under style
Sleeping under death awhile
Gladiators ring
Sharpening my blade to sting
Son of a bitch your fate I'll bring

Profit melee are all mesmerized
All betray the bastard samurai
Profit melee on this killing floor
All betray the bastard samurai

Bastard Samurai
Bastard Samurai

The killer I've become
Tattoo heart yakuza's thumb
Killing men aside
Severed heads abide
Son of a bitch should bleed awhile

Bastard Samurai
Bastard Samurai

[Cole Miner]

 

Well, guess who's just got back today?

Them wild-eyed boys that had been away

Haven't changed, haven't much to say

Man, I still think them cats are crazy

 

They were asking if you were around

How you was, where you could be found?

Told them that you were living downtown

Driving all the old men crazy

 

The boys are back in town

Boys are back in town

Say, "The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town"

 

The boys are back in town

Boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

 

You know that chick that used to dance a lot

Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got

Man, when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot

I mean she was steaming

 

And that time over at Johnny's place

Well, this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face

But man, we just fell about the place

If that chick don't want to know, forget her

 

The boys are back in town

Boys are back in town

I said, "The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town"

 

The boys are back in town

Boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

 

Spread the word around

Guess who's back in town

Spread the word around

 

Friday night, dressed to kill

Down at Dino's bar and grill

The drink will flow, blood will spill

The boys wanna fight, you'd better let them

 

That jukebox in the corner's blasting out my favorite song

These nights are getting warmer, it won't be long

Won't be long till the summer comes

 

Now that the boys are back in town

Boys are back in town

I said, "The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town"

 

The boys are back in town

Boys are back in town

Spread the word around

The boys are back

The boys are back in town

Another silo full, another dark dawn
Bending the air, love is so small
Visualize dark thoughts it was in a dream
Internet as a self-atomizing machine
I designed it, reset, she's the cure
Underground, search for more

 

Returnal - You've never left, you've been here the whole time
Returnal - You've never left, you've been here the whole time

 

Another silo full, another dark dawn
Bending the air, love is so full
My desire to see the light, my desire to be pure
Underground I visualize sighing ocean dream

 

Returnal - You've never left, you've been here the whole time
Returnal - You've never left, you've been here the whole time

 

You've never left, you've been here the whole time

Returnal - You've never left, you've been here the whole time

[Randy]

This has been stuck in my head for a couple of days and I also am addicted to watching the video.  Kate Bush's eyes.

 

 

She wanted to test her husband. 
She knew exactly what to do: 
A pseudonym to fool him. 
She couldn't have made a worse move. 

She sent him scented letters, 
And he received them with a strange delight. 
Just like his wife 
But how she was before the tears, 
And how she was before the years flew by, 
And how she was when she was beautiful. 
She signed the letter 

"All yours, 
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya! 
All yours, 
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!" 

She wanted to take it further, 
So she arranged a place to go, 
To see if he 
Would fall for her incognito. 
And when he laid eyes on her, 
He got the feeling they had met before. 
Uncanny how she 
Reminds him of his little lady, 
Capacity to give him all he needs, 
Just like his wife before she freezed on him, 
Just like his wife when she was beautiful. 
He shouted out, "I'm 

All yours, 
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya! 
All yours, 
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya! 
All yours, 
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"

[Lawful Metal]

I'm a sucker for them big ass choruses.

 

 

On the night that we met, the feelings of dread
We knew it'd be hard, God, I love the regret
My work is all I know, I swear when I am done
Our life can be as one, but we just have to

Wait for the time when we're right
I can feel it inside
My god we've waited so long
This time we took, we'll go far

We're born to follow with heart and soul
And we're so torn and it's so hard to hold
Now we're scared to find out the heights of love
Because it's so high and we're so far up

Wait for the time when we're right
I can feel it inside
My god we've waited so long
This time we took, we'll go far

The patience we have shown
No others can fare
Our story is the one only few can compare
We will both exchange a smile
When we tell the kids our trials
This is what we have inspired

No matter what our fate
I will always be yours
On those days I turned away
You were always my world

[Burgundy LaRue]

I'm trying to figure out how a guy like Mahone winds up on Cash Money Records.  That said, this is a catchy pop/dance song.  And with Pitbull, as an added bonus!

 

[Cole Miner]

 

Need the lyrics for this one for sure guy wasn't all that concerned with being comprehensible. 

 

Theres a little boll weevil keeps movin' in the air (*says air with guitar), Lordie!

You can plant your cotton and you won't get a half a bale, Lordie

Bo weevil, bo weevil, where's your native home? Lordie

"A-Louisiana raised in Texas, least is where I was bred and born", Lordie

Well, I saw the bo weevil, Lord, a-circle, Lord, in the air, Lordie

The next time I seen him, Lord, he had his family there, Lordie

Bo weevil left Texas, Lord, he bid me "fare ye well", Lordie

 

(spoken: Where you goin' now?)

I'm goin' down the Mississippi, gonna give Louisiana hell, Lordie

Boll weavil said farmer, I ain't gotta treat you fair, Lordie

(spoken: How is that, boy?)

Suck all the blossoms and he leave your hedges square, Lordie

The next time I seen you, you know you had your family there, Lordie

Bo weevil meet his wife, "We can sit down on the hill", Lordie

Bo weevil told his wife, "Let's trade this forty in", Lordie

Bo weevil told his wife, says, "I believe I may go North", Lordie

(spoken: Hold on, I'm gonna tell all about that)

 

"Let's leave Louisiana, we can go to Arkansas", Lordie

Well, I saw the bo weevil, Lord a-circle, Lord, in the air, Lordie

Next time I seen him, Lord, he had his family there, Lordie

Bo weevil told the farmer that "I 'tain't got ticket fare", Lordie

Sucks all the blossom and leave your hedges square, Lordie

Bo weevil, bo weevil, where your native home? Lordie

"Most anywhere they raise cotton and corn", Lordie

Bo weevil, bo weevil, "Outta treat me fair", Lordie

The next time I did you had your family there, Lordie

[GoOnAndWalkItOut]

I realize it's not Tuesday, but dammit I've had two songs alternating in my head all day. The one above, and the one below:

As much as I love hip hop, there's just a huge amount of country swirling around up there...

[Biz Smarkie]

 

Kalas - Godpills

 

Sacred, wicked, godless victim, bastards pain the blind
Earthly garden, re-seek Sodom, eat thrice, jackal's hide
Dead black flowers, all that cowers
Drugs that clear your mind
Lesser demon, dark their treason, opiate divine

Black gates crumbling death comes tumbling
Praying for your time
Sacred liar troubles dire shoot your way to high
Dead black flowers all that cowers
Drugs that clear your mind
Lesser demons, darkened treason, opiate divine

We walk amongst this crowd with one foot in the grave
We talk amongst this crowd and miracles would save
And if you cared to listen, you'd know that you were slaves
The blind
The blind

We desolate our veins with pleasure in our cage
We kill the light inside and replace it with rage
The blind
The blind

 

I've kinda made it up in my head that this song is the precursor to my favorite High on Fire song, Bastard Samurai. I don't know why, but it works for me.

[Greggulator]

 

R.E.M covering Lou Gramm's "Midnight Blue" of all songs. THIS IS SO GREAT!

[Lamp, broken circa 1988]

 

first verse for best love song of the year 2014

 

second verse is just more greatness from ugly mane

 

beat is another impossible beauty

[Pete]

 

[boy:]

I remember every little thing

As if it happened only yesterday

Parking by the lake

And there was not another car in sight

And I never had a girl

Looking any better than you did

And all the kids at school

They were wishing they were me that night

 

And now our bodies are oh so close and tight

It never felt so good, it never felt so right

And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife

Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife

C'mon, hold on tight

C'mon, hold on tight

 

Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night

I can see paradise by the dashboard light

 

[Girl:]

Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed

'Cause we were barely seventeen

And we were barely dressed

 

[both:]

Ain't no doubt about it

Baby got to go out and shout it

Ain't no doubt about it

We were doubly blessed

 

[boy:]

'Cause we were barely seventeen

And we were barely dressed

 

Baby don'cha hear my heart

You got it drowing out the radio

I've been waiting so long

For you to come along and have some fun

And I gotta let you know

No you're never gonna regret it

So open up your eyes, I got a big surprise

It'll feel all right

Well I wanna make you motor run

 

And now our bodies are oh so close and tight

It never felt so good, it never felt so right

And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife

Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife

C'mon, Hold on tight

C'mon, Hold on tight

 

[both:]

Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night

I can see paradise by the dashboard light

Paradise by the dashboard light

 

You got to do what you can

And let Mother Nature do the rest

Ain't no doubt about it

We were doubly blessed

'Cause we were barely seventeen

And we were barely

 

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way

And tonight's the night

 

OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here

Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth

There's the wind-up, and there it is

A line shot up the middle, look at him go

This boy can really fly

He's rounding first and really turning it on now

He's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for second

The ball is bobbled out in the center

And here's the throw and what a throw

He's gonna slide in head first

Here he comes, he's out

No, wait, safe, safe at second base

This kid really makes things happen out there

Batter steps up to the plate

Here's the pitch, he's going

Amd what a jump he's got

He's trying for third

Here's the throw

It's in the dirt, safe a third

Holw cow, stolen base

He's taking a pretty big lead out there

Almost daring them to pick him off

The pitcher glances over, winds-up and it's bunted

Bunted down the third base line

The suicide squeeze is on

Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close

Here's the throw, here's the play at the plate

Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it

 

[Girl:]

Stop right there

I gotta know right now

Before we go any further

 

Do you love me

Will you love me forever

Do you need me

Will you never leave me

Will you make me so happy

For the rest of my life

Will you take me away

And will you make me your wife

Do you love me

Will you love me forever

Do you need me

Will you never leave me

Will you make me so happy

For the rest of my life

Will you take me away

And will you make me your wife

 

I gotta know right now

Before we go any further

Do you love me

Will you love me forever

 

[boy:]

Let me sleep on it

Baby, baby let me sleep on it

Let me sleep on it

And I'll give you an answer in the morning

 

Let me sleep on it

Baby, baby let me sleep on it

Let me sleep on it

And I'll give you an answer in the morning

 

Let me sleep on it

Baby, baby let me sleep on it

Let me sleep on it

And I'll give you an answer in the morning

 

[Girl:]

I gotta know right now

Do you love me

Will you love me forever

Do you need me

Will you never leave me

Will you make me so happy

For the rest of my life

Will you take me away

And will you make me your wife

I gotta know right now

Before we go any further

Do you love me

And will you love me forever

 

[boy:]

Let me sleep on it

Baby, baby let me sleep on it

Let me sleep on it

And I'll give you an answer in the morning

Let me sleep on it

 

[Girl:]

Will you love me forever

 

[boy:]

Let me sleep on it

 

[Girl:]

Will you love me forever

 

[boy:]

I couldn't take it any longer

Lord I was crazed

And when the feeling came upon me

Like a tidal wave

I started swearing to my god

And on my mother's grave

That I would love you to the end of time

I swore I would love you to the end of time

 

So now I'm praying for the end of time

To hurry up and arrive

'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you

I don't think that I can really survive

I'll never break my promise or forget my vow

But God only knows what I can do right now

I'm praying for the end of time

So I can end my time with you

 

[boy:]

It was long ago and it was far away,

And it was so much better than it is today.

 

[Girl:]

It never felt so good, It never felt so right

And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife.

[Lamp, broken circa 1988]

I've bought three records from Sub Pop this year.

 

Two of them are rap records.

 

2014.

 

 

(if you are an old rap head, Shabazz Palaces is the insane progressive concept rap thing from Ishmael Butler, a.k.a. Butterfly of Digable Planets and a co-conspirator named Tendai Maraire. They've done weird shit like this.)

 

 

EDIT: Also, this remix of Kanye West's On Sight by DJ Rashad which gave it the laserblast energy the song was going for originally.

[Lamp, broken circa 1988]

Help me.

 

It's like a horrible spell. Craftsmanship is required to make something so terrible and evil.

[Cole Miner]

 

I went away up the river, some forty mile or mo' 

I think I heard that big Jim Lee blow

 

She blow so lonesome, like she wasn' gon' blow no mo' 

It blowed just like my baby gettin' on board

 

I'm a po' old boy and a long way from home 

An' she's callin' me to leave my plumb good home

 

My mama is dead an' my father well could be

I ain' got nobody to feel an' care for me

 

If you don' want me, jus' give me your han'

Mmm, I'll get a woman sweet as you can a man

 

I got a (key on a) wheeler, got a (bowser) on the plow ????

Got a plumb good man bringing down the Johnson bayou

 

I lay my head in a 'ceitful woman's arms

An' she lay her nappy head in mine

 

When I got arrested, what do you reckon was my fine?

Say, they give all coons 'leven twenty nine 

 

(Big boys n' shines) don't pay me no mind 

Cause I (do) not let no coons in (mine)

 

Well that big Jim Lee, keep a-backin' up an' down 

She sand bar struck, man and she water bound

[Burgundy LaRue]

[J.H.]

There are times I find myself spiraling into a motherfucker of a depression.  Few songs snap me out of it the way Jungle Smile's "Dakishimetai" does...

 

The video is gut punch but the song reminds me I'm not alone.

[Lamp, broken circa 1988]

 

Please don't go away

[Lamp, broken circa 1988]

not even the best song on here

 

Godsmack is how the wind feels on the face of Mike Winfield on his way home from the bar where he works nights - the worst nights. Don't nobody tip right, and between the marriage offers and the fist fights- and if another mother fucker touch his wrist trying to pull him in to whisper, he ain't making it to midnight.

Don't they know he got a lighter in his pocket, a matchbook in his sock, and a block full of charred skeletons closeted begging to get out? He paused cause he's scared of airing out the thoughts. He can taste it in his mouth the sulfur and bitter carbon, hearing all the burning bodies shout... but no, that was a full lifetime ago and nobody ever has to know. He has never told-

 

Well, except Ronald... but that don't count. He was sweet and exactly what he needed him to be at the time- wine and candlelight and nice texts at lunchtime. Why had he not called Ron back? Guess there just wasn't a spark.

 

Ha! 

 

No no, musn't joke about these things, wouldn't want to disappoint Doc Clark. So many hours on the couch. So many buried memories that take so many tears to get them out. Water hadn't never been a friend- 

 

Hold up.

 

Where had he seen that car before? Blue Acura dent on the left rear fender... back again, the sense of Deja Vu- strange things you never shake when you wake up in recovery, but suddenly noticing ash is covering his head cause it's raining from the sky. Dials home on his cell phone and gets no reply.

 

What the fuck?!

 

Where is the babysitter that he overpays? Body takes over and brain becomes disengaged, Michael is running- his house is three blocks away adrenaline compensating for change in age since the last that he ran it. "God dammit!" Mike knows he gotta get home fast as he can- Looks up in the sky, glow's familiar, knows those families died with similar awnings and on and on he keeps going, hits the corner just as he hears the explosion.

 

Screams comes from the house. "Did you get them out," Mike asking came the crowd that gathered round, tears running down his face- there's that familiar taste. He wishes it would take him to another place. Son and his baby girl in his home and he can't believe that it's gone in a cloud of smoke and he's choking and running forward and hoping against hope that he might find them alive and well when he knows the results too well and he knows that fooled himself and he keeps walking toward the house rather what house is still left, no intention of stopping letting the smoke take his breath. Some strong arm rocks him aside. Mike falls to the ground and cries "WHY WON'T YOU JUST LET ME DIE?!"
"WHY WON'T YOU JUST LET ME DIE?!"

[J.H.]

Stuck in my head after hearing The Monkees play it live last week...

 

Girl, you look mighty good to me
And I know that you've got to be
The kind of girl I could love.

You've got the sweetest pair of eyes
And your kiss would be paradise
You're the kind of girl I could love.

You do something to my soul
That no one's ever done.
If you're looking for true love
Then let me be the one.

Girl, deep in my soul I'm sure
And my heart has no doubt that you're
The kind of girl I could love.
The kind of girl I could love.

 

James

[Death From Above]

For no goddamn reason this song got stuck.

 

[S.K.o.S.]

I can tell this isn't going away anytime soon.

 

 

[Cole Miner]

 

Beneath the bebop moon

I want to croon with you

Beneath the Mambo Sun

I got to be the one with you.

My life's a shadowless horse

If I can't get across to you

In the alligator rain

My hearts all pain for you.

Girl you're good 

And I've got wild knees for you

On a mountain range

I'm Dr. Strange for you.

Upon a savage lake 

Make no mistake I love you

I got a powder keg leg

And my wig's all pooped for you.

With my hat in my hand

I'm a hungry man for you

I got stars in my beard

And I feel real weird for you.

Beneath the bebop moon 

I'm howling like a loon for you

Beneath the Mambo Sun

I've got to be the one for you
