Musical Sunday!

Typically, I use this space to talk about the love of my life (musical theater), but I got all caught up in the Jersey pride thing that I decided to do something a little different today.

Oh, sure, I could've posted something about Jersey Boys, but... I've never seen Jersey Boys, and the soundtrack is basically just Four Seasons songs, so it's not

I have an unfair advantage, given where I live. Yes, there have been one or two songs written about this town. :-) This is one of my favourites:

Heh, yeah, London's almost as well-represented as New York. :) Excellent choice.

I have to say, I think the Tube is actually better than the Metro, but this is still one of my favorite songs ever:

ROLFCOPTER. :-)

Also, I think I heard a bit of The Jam influence in that song...

The Clash rock out loud! One of the best bands ever and I don't listen to them near enough. That video has put a huge smile on my face

I'm a fan of Ivy through the band's Fountains of Wayne connection, so I'm glad that song got into the playlist!

I found both Ivy and Fountains of Wayne through Veronica Mars. I ought to get more of their stuff, since I've liked the ones I've heard. Do you have any favorite songs?

I'm a CD girl still and I really like 90% of their songs on their second and third CDs. On Utopia Parkway, I love "Red Dragon Tattoo" and "It Must Be Summer." On Welcome Interstate Managers, I love "Bright Future in Sales," "Valley Winter Song," and, oh, heck, I'm looking at the entire thing and saying, I love that song, and that one...Some are funny and some are poignant, but they all have great pop hooks and catchy lyrics. I love "Fire Island." Both CDs reminds me of summer. Traffic and Weather us a bit less successful.
