(Y'know, since he's underage and I'm .... REALLY not.)

Nope, staying true to my well-deserved rep - according to my longtime musician-loving friends - I still go for the slightly less obvious "objects of obsession."  It's not the indie thing ... I've jumped on plenty of pop bandwagons in my day.

I know, not the best sound quality choice I could've embedded. If you get bored, check out his newer music on YouTube - "Talking and Sleepless" is an AMAZING song.

It's just really rare to find such sophisticated songwriting and lyrics as are found on his first album, "Thinking Underage", released when he was 16. Especially when I think about douches like Justin Beiber being praised as being "precociously talented." Can't write, doesn't play .... hmmm ... doesn't fit my criteria, that's for sure!

Full disclosure: I have a 13 y/o, so am bombarded by shitty Disney music constantly.

Oh, and I have worn out 3 copies of "Telegraph," and "It's Only Time" stays in my automobile 24/7. Sadly, Drake's next album has been delayed as long as Teddy's sophomore album ... but like TG, Drake has quite a few songs on YouTube he's written for the next album (rumored to be a double album?), and you can rip the audio from the vids at mp3ify.com Have fun!

You are so welcome! There may be two Drake Bell channels on YouTube: one for acting, one for music - not sure. But there are at least 5-6 great songs he's got ready for an album ... someday!

(Promise me you'll look at a Teddy Geiger vid while you're there: a performance of "Gentlemen," or "Air Dry," or "Try Too Hard." I promise you'll enjoy them!)
