The Killers – Somebody Told Me
Sunday, August 15th, 2004There’s a whole lot of music that I really like right now. Just today, was listening to the radio at the office and heard “Somebody Told Me” by The Killers. Really fun song. Jasmine said it sounds like something she heard at 80’s night at this club in Pittsburgh. So, the question is – is this a cover of an 80’s song, or is it an original by The Killers.
Island Records has a cool eCard for them, which plays the song, go and listen to it here.
And here’s a link to their CD on Amazon.com.
And the lyrics..
A Perfect Circle : The Nurse Who Loved Me
Tuesday, January 6th, 2004Listening to A Perfect Circle right now, and the song “The Nurse Who Loved Me” struck me as being at the same time odd and comfortably fascinating. Crazy stuff. Apparently its a cover of a song by Failure, and the lyrics are only a little bit different. The Failure song talks about a “rock’s topography”, whereas I think this version talks about a “rug’s topography”. Also there Failure version has “she’s got everything i need; some pills that are red on top“, while this version has “she’s got everything i need; some pills in a little cup“. Interesting differences and the song’s meaning is a mystery to me as well, although I have my theories. Anybody have any theories they’d like to share?

Coors Light Wingman Song
Sunday, October 12th, 2003The Coors Light Wingman commercial is hillarious, and apparently the song is by GoldSpot. I read about it a little bit on Shanti Bradford’s blog.
This song is so funny, and I’ve found myself signing it on random occasions. Sweet. Note to my brother Konst, you have to learn this song and perform it for me .
Here’s a link to the video, to the Lyrics and Chords. Here they are..
