Bruce Springsteen needs the workers but the workers don’t need Bruce Springsteen – Crucial Unit Bruce! Crucial Unit always seemed too close to metal, the vocals too much monosyllabic on the beat banshee shrieks, the songs too ploddingly, traditionally structured and long for my tastes. Of course that is a taste nearly ten years old [...]

Roly poly – T-ara I stayed up way too late last night, pushing sleep back further and further, delaying work that needs to be done later and later, caught on some youtube related video circle of performances of this song. So while i don’t have a handle on life and responsibility, i do have a [...]

JM y la furgoneta azul – Juniper Moon I love how stock the verse of this song is, only for it to be met with some glorious chorus that probably isn’t all that remarkable but boy does it ever sound good. I love how quickly it gets there. Four times without vocals, four times with, [...]

Mr. Taxi – Girls’ Generation Hypertonic An Hypertonic solution contains a higher concentration of electrolytes than that found in body cells. If such a solution is allowed to enter the blood stream, the osmotic pressure difference between the blood and the cells will cause water to flow out of the cells, which will then shrink. [...]
Silly Me

Silly me – All There certainly is a thing in punk rock circles, and especially the larger punk rock circle All and all them aging Epitaph and Fat bands command, of older men courting younger ladies. And not only a thing in its occurrence, more often a thing in the resentment those on the side [...]

Mr. Taxi – Girls’ Generation It is in my worthless opinion that Girls’ Generation have not released a decent single since Oh!. So since early last year, yet they’re more popular than ever and we still lap everything up. There has been an ease of operation running for a while now, but why ever alight [...]

Marshmallow – IU I went to the board game cafe last night on one of my precious, precious social outings. They played this song over their stereo and i was the dork who basked in and was excited by it a little too much. “It’s Marshmallow!” No one cared. Oh well. My ears were at [...]
Puro Teatro

Puro teatro – Juniper Moon I like when this song speeds up at the chorus into that punk beat, yet doesn’t seem to speed up fast enough for it to keep in time. It’s as though they wanted a let(‘s) go, freak out moment and settled on going punk double time, but didn’t have the [...]

Because You’re Mine

Because you’re mine – G.NA This is another song from the drama The Greatest Love, which i finished watching yesterday and now feel empty without. Happy endings are still endings. There are only ever a few songs on the soundtracks to these shows, meaning they are repeated constantly throughout, used as leitmotifs to give meaning, [...]
