I'm so done with this season. David Archuletta won this season about 4 weeks ago. But I guess I need to finish out my critiquing. Seriously, I'm more into Dancing With the Stars than AI. I at least want to watch Kristy Yamaguchi, where as with AI, I don't want to listen to anyone. Even Deadliest Catch is boring so far this season. Well, at least I have Lost.
David Cook singing Hungry Like the Wolf. Whoops, they forgot to mix in any of the music, so it's all his voice. And it's not all that good. Man, this mix is killing me. It's someone singing rock a cappella. Well, he didn't really do anything with it. And it wasn't all that great. Grade C+
I'm sure this video has some sort of meaning, I'm just not gonna try to figure it out right now. Maybe you can. I got stuff to do like figure out when I'm going to see Iron Man again.
Joy Electric has a new song up called My Grandfather the Cubist. My grandfather was spherical. He didn't get along with cubists or those darn rhombists. Rhombists think they're so cool. Okay, that was totally dum.
Neil Diamond night? Boring. It's going to be the easy listening radio station tonight. I'm ready for one of the worst lineup of song choices ever on the show.
I'm also not all that into the top five. There's some likable people, but are they great singers? And yeah, I'm late on this again. I just can't watch it while it's actually on TV. I gots stuff to do. Yeah, it makes my commentary less relevant, but it's not like it's important anyways.
Jason Castro singing Forever in Blue Jeans. I guess this is okay. But what did I say about the easy listening station? Yeah, it's that. Grade C
Here's Divebomber from our show on this past Saturday. A couple points of note - our kids are 15 and 13. Jordan's classmate is also 15 and he plays bass for us. His name is Cullen. He's really good. Victoria sings a couple lines by herself. It's cute. Could you imagine being in a band with your mom? In related news, we have a show this Saturday as well. You can check out that info on our myspace or facebook pages.
In case you were unaware, you can now purchase stand alone guitars (without the game) for the Wii version of Guitar Hero III. GameStop has lowered it's price to $49.99, along with some other $20 dollar price drops for other Guitar Hero games and guitars. The deal ends on Friday, May 2nd. Don't miss out.
Showbread has got a new song up. In related news, I don't like eating bread without meat, like hamburgers or hotdogs. I typically tear off the excess bread. People tell me I'm shallow. But then I tell them they are judgmental. Then they tell me I'm judgmental. Then we all ask for forgiveness and feed the excess bread to homeless children.
Here's a pretty good video and song. It's an animated video, nothing crazy, but it fits the song. I'm not sure what the classic crime would be. But it probably has something to do with letting your dogs poop in other people's yards. Specifically two Great Danes and a Rottweiler. More specifically a black Great Dane named "Zoe" and a brown one that I don't know the name of and a black Rottweiler. You might not think it's much of a crime, but then you don't have to mow my lawn, do you?
I know I kinda exaggerate a lot, but this is no exaggeration. Carly's choice to sing Judas' song from Jesus Christ Superstar is by far the worst song choice anyone ever had.
What makes it even worse - is she was going to sing one of the best songs from Phantom.
I have video evidence! Compare the quality of these two songs.
Here's the song she wanted to sing from Phantom sung by Sarah Brightman and the Josh Groban, who was gracious enough to come down from his kingdom in the clouds to sing this song...
Wow, there's not a whole lot of people left. Hey, look they brought the band down to the stage. I always thought having the band thirty feet above the singer was totally goofy - it made it look more karaoke (expect for all the off key harmonies).
Andrew Llyod Webber night. Weird. I like it, but it's weird. I always thought his music was a little too like, "Hey, I'm singing an entire sentence." But whatever, he has some good stuff. The Phantom of the Opera is really good. I'm more partial to Les Miserables, but Andrew Lloyd Webber is good at what he does.
I've seen it so many times where Christians are not only hesitant to label themselves as a Baptist, Methodist, Reformed, Calvinist, Arminianist, Conradist, etc., but also think it's a bad thing. We've seen so many divisions in the Church and a lot of people attribute that to labels.
The common thinking goes, "What can't I just call myself a Christian? Why do I have to label myself? Why can't I just say I believe the Bible because labels are bad."
I always knew clowns were evil. I'm not sure why clowns are hired for children birthday parties. They're absolutely frightening. I guess the rational is that if you're a parent and you hate your kid's friends, you hire a clown for his birthday party so that his friends will relate him to a feeling of grotesque horror and stay away from him forever. Which is probably good because your kid's friends probably listen to Hanna Montana and the Jonas Brothers.
Writ on Water has taken on a sound that is reminiscent of early 90’s shoegazer bands, such as Slowdive, and 80’s indie darlings, The Cocteau Twins. The lush ‘A Midsummer Wish’ and ‘Last Night of Her Sleep’ are immensely rewarding instrumental tracks that give you reason to go back and listen to the song over and over again as you discover something new each time. ’Ancestor’ is a mixture of driving guitars and haunting vocals that dare the listener to not hit repeat and could not possibly be forgotten as this song simply begs for radio attention.
