So earlier, I posted about Eddie Vedder’s Ukulele Songs and how much I liked it. Well, an awesome commentor on that post reccomended a band called Beirut. So I bought the Lon Gisland EP and let’s just say that the only time it left my CD player was to put in Eddie Vedder. Beirut’s Lon Gisland EP is awesome! I can’t really describe the sound, but it’s peppy and ethnic and fun. My kids love to dance to it as well!
My favorite son on this EP has to be Elephant Gun, which is a crazy title, but it’s a great song! Don’t believe me, listen for yourselves! Thank a BIG thank you to Hankisanerd for suggesting them!
Okay, so I’m on a bit of TRON kick today. It happens! THis has to be one of my favorite songs to run to, work out to, and just listen to. What I love about this song, especially when I’m running (yes, nerds run) is that it one of those songs that the beat just drives me (or you). So, as I have the day off of running, Enjoy this awesome song on me!
Here is the video showing all the great sci-fi icons in the video. Did you get them all? I did! Make sure to check out TheGameStation, these guys are funny, nerdy-cute and smart! (Your mom would be proud!)
This video is awesome! I laughed so hard, plus it’s kind of a puzzle as to how many sci-fi figures are in this video! Think you know them all? Tune in tomorrow for the answers!
My friends at Kirby Krackle wrote this great song a few years ago, but with the great Zombie Apocalypse coming up in a little over a year, I thought this one was all too appropriate!
Aren’t these the cutest speakers for a MP3 player? I think so! Tanga offers the best deal for these cute speakers! Tanga is offering these cute speakers for just $6.99 (+ Shipping), the normal price is $29.99! Make sure to grab a pair before it’s too late!
These speakers are easy to use and will work with any MP3 player, so load up your MP3 player with some great tunes, such as Sesame Street’s Platinum All-Time Favorites and let your kiddos rock out!
There are some songs that I listen to put me in a good mood no matter how grumpy and sad or whatever you are. Here’s my list!
Good Mood Songs:
RuPaul: Supermodel (You can’t help but get a little pep in your step on that one! You better work!)
Jem: It’s Amazing (An awesome empowering song!!!)
The Chemical Brothers: Let Forever Be (good to groove to!)
Jackson 5: ABC (oldie but goodie!)
Siuxie and the Banshees: Dear Prudence (best remake of this song EVER!!!)
Kool and the Gang: Carwash (again, oldie but goodie!)
Eninem: Without Me (sometimes it’s nice to know someone else is pissy too!)
The O.C. Supertones: Jury Duty (a mutual bad day can be a good thing)
Madonna: Material Girl (ok, what Gen X’er has not lipsynced to this one!)
Aretha Franklin: RESPECT (come now, you KNOW you have sung this one a time or too!)
Stray Cats: Rock This Town (too good to pass up!)
Amy Winehouse: Rehab (Love her Aretha-like quality!)
Dee-Lite: Groove is in the Heart (This is one of my ALL time favorite songs!)
Bloodhound Gang: The Bad Touch (okay, if this song doesn’t make you laugh, you need to get your sense of humor checked)
They Might Be Giants: Birdhouse in Your Soul
I hope you enjoy my list! I am always up for new music, so if you have some favorites, let me know!!! If you would like to share your list, I would love it!
While browsing the internet, I recently ran across this great little jem! 101 Housework Songs! It’s six discs of greatness that varies from many different generations and decades! One minute you will find Katy Perry, the next Frank Sinatra! This music set has been awesome for not only housework, but long car rides, having company over and just chilling out!
Let’s face it, doing the dishes is a lot more fun when you can belt out “Respect” or “9 to 5″! This CD set is fun and keeps you moving, even when you really don’t want to! It was the best CD purchase I have made in a long time and I highly suggest that you snag it too!
