Song of the Day – ‘Off the Wall’
No introduction needed here other than, it’s the weekend. Enjoy!
Song of the Day – ‘It’s Yourz’
Alright, enough downer stuff… I have vivid memories of the college days, me and my homeboy in the booth on a Saturday night, getting hyped just off of U God’s verse alone: Yo, super freak physique. like Raphael Saadiq Baby love the ganja leaf, everday of the week Super friends wake up, deluxe gourmet […]
Song of the Day – ‘Good Riddance’
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go So make the best of this test, and don’t ask why It’s not a question, but a lesson learned in time It’s something unpredictable, but in the end is right, I hope you had […]
Song of the Day – ‘In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning’
Alright, back in writing mode, so let’s burn off a few more heartbreak songs, shall we? The Sinatra mythology says this one was recording after his marriage with Ava Gardner was really over. Yep, sounds like it…
‘Life Itself’
I’m not a man of regrets as most of you know, but I do wish I moved a little faster and had a film or a performance that was reviewed by Roger Ebert. Along with Gene Siskel, he was America’s (hell, the world’s) film critic, and the new documentary Life Itself captures his personal and professional […]
Song of the Day – ‘I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues’
Still writing about heartbreak. I always loved how he said this was his attempt at doing a ‘Ray Charles song.’ Not bad at all right? Have a good weekend.
Song of the Day – ‘Just My Imagination’
I’ve been writing ‘heartbreak’ this week so that’s the ‘theme’ for the moment. That also means this one HAD to be on the playlist. Enjoy (so to speak)… Ooo Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by. I say to myself, you’re such a lucky guy. To have a girl […]
Song of the Day – ‘Get at Me Dog’
Once upon a time, this cat and Ja Rule were giving us serious run as ‘the guy to replace 2Pac’. Yeah, I know, I know… But still, this song (his mainstream debut) gets me RIDICULOUSLY hyped up!
‘Get On Up’
I can’t really ‘spoil’ a movie about the life of James Brown, can I? I’m in my ‘peak period’ of introspection as some of you know, so on the way home I was comparing filmmaking to life in general (just go with me for a minute). When you have a good thing, don’t mess […]
Song of the Day – ‘Killing Me Softly’
This week is shaping up to be a mix of music and other things, but we start this week with some old school. Enjoy!
