The song "Knotty Pine," that Dirty Projectors did with David Byrne for "Dark Was the Night," is another one of those songs that I didn't really like, but then I actually listened to it in full, and realized it's pretty good!

Another One of Those

2/5
At least, I think it's five. There's, fungi, single-cell organisms... something else... Plants and Animals. Five Kingdoms. Right? Yeah, I think so.
But that's neither here nor there. Nor there (I'm pointing to a different spot now). "The Mama Papa." It was a free iTunes download, then a single. And for good reason, too.

Out
You know what's pretty much impossible? Finding a picture of Casa di Mondo. Yeah. That's right.
But finding their song "Out with the Old" is less impossible.

And Now...
And now, today's song! It's by a band called A B & the Sea. Not ABC. Sea, not C, you see? So we're clear on this now? Grood. I mean good. And great. Great and good.
The song is a pretty lovely thing called "Shine in the Shade."

A Day After
I didn't post a song yesterday. Maybe I was "Spellbound" by eight hours of Buffy and Angel. BAHAHAHAHA!!! I'm so funny!
No, but seriously. My sister and I watched seasons seven and four for eight hours yesterday. It was fantastic.
Anyway, Doves is the band.

Dies
When someone important dies, like a royal or something, you're supposed to have your national flags at "Half Mast." I haven't listened to the words, but I wonder if that's what the Empire of the Sun song is about.

Read
Actually, when I say it was down, I mean it was read-only. People could see blogs; we just couldn't post anything new.
Oh no. I just used the word "we" to denote bloggers. This is what Meat Cat spoke of...
Anyway, "German Studies" by The Breeders. I don't remember how it goes, but I do remember it being pretty kind of awesome. I guess it kind of maybe might be slightly sort of almost nearly somewhat rather fairly relatively awesome? No, it rocks!

Down
Blogspot was down yesterday, so I couldn't post. So, for yesterday:
Remember "Roll to Me" by Del Amitri? I forgot about it until that bathroom incident.

Only Half
Only "Half Crazy." That sounds like me.
Yes, this is from Jukebox the Ghost's exciting new album! It's a truly fantastic record, called "Everything Under the Sun." It was actually the cause for some frustration when I saw, at an HMV in Toronto, a label that said, "Jukebox the Sun." I should have said something...

Just
I just realized how awesome this song is yesterday, even though I've known it for quite a while. Several months, at least. It's called "Let Loose the Horses," and it's by this amazing band called The Rescues (not The Rescuers).

Like Me, Sometimes
Sometimes I'm a bit of a "Creeper." Alas, I don't think Islands have written any songs about me. Sad panda.

The Moms
Happy Mother's Day, moms!
Remember that episode of 30 Rock? "The Moms"? I told Eric he should get pajamaralls. Pajamaralways!
..... He didn't go for it.
Anyway, I'm finishing the Ketchum Weekend today, with an Ash Koley song (duh) called "Don't Let Your Feet Touch Ground."

Apologies
Apologies, dear reader(s) (I'm being realistic, and accepting that there likely should be no S on the end of that word). I've been gone. Exams. Moving. That kind of stuff.
Anyway!
So! I'm bringing us back with a weekend. Ketchum Weekend. I decided to call it that because I'm bored and it's a weekend of Ash Koley (apparently a band, not a singer, and also apparently Canadian; w00t!) and Ash like Ash Ketchum.
Anyway!
I don't know how I know "Brighter at Night." Was it a free iTunes download? I want to say it's one from Starbucks, but I might just be making up memories...
Anyway!
Good song! But tomorrow's, which in my research I discovered was on So You Think You Can Dance but that's not how I know it, I think, is better.
