Muuuuuussic Friiiiddaayyyy!!!!

16 Nov

It’s Music Friday, people! “What’s Music Friday?”, you ask? Music Friday is when, on Fridays, I will post some songs I’ve been listening to. I’m a bit of an obsessive repeater when a song gets its needly little claws into me, so when I say “listening to” I mean “listening to over and over again in sort of a creepy trance state, and probably if somebody walked in the room they’d stop suddenly and then start to back away slowly.”

Anyway, let’s get to the songs!

Sera Cahoone, Deer Creek Canyon

This is exactly the kind of lilting, gently-enveloping, pseudo-alt-country ballad I’m a total sucker for.

 

Listen. It is okay for me to love that song and this song. Last time I checked, this was America! Now, back to the lilting…

The Tallest Man on Earth, Wind and Walls

This li’l tiny Swede will folk you up.

 

The Mountain Goats, The Diaz Brothers

This song is based on two characters briefly referenced in Scarface. Mountain Goats frontman John Darnielle told Rolling Stone, “Frank tells Tony he has to respect the Diaz brothers, and Tony tells him to eff the Diaz Brothers, and by the time we do see them, they’re dead,” said Darnielle. “I’m obsessed with people we never got to know but who we know about, because you have a sense of who they were and what became of them since they died, but they’re essentially blocking characters in this story we all know. And we’re all basically blocking characters in life, when you think about it.”

Whatever that means, amen.

 

Ben Gibbard and Aimee Mann, Bigger Than Love

Ben Gibbard is very sad because he broke up with Zoey Deschanel. He is a human-sized, floppy haired, ‘frowny tear’ emoticon, roaming the lonely forests of the Pacific Northwest in vintage bespoke suits. But all that existential agony inspired a pretty good solo album, plus this duet with Aimee Mann.

 

The White Buffalo, BB Guns and Dirtbikes

Though I could accurately be described as “not totally comfortable” with BB guns OR dirtbikes as a kid, this song still manages to remind me of my somewhat free range childhood in New Jersey’s undiscovered central country.

    Como resultado, esta fórmula de alargamento de pênis não é tão eficaz e ProSolution não
    é a melhor escolha.

    Idéal pour : les rides fines à moyennes,
    les petites rides autour de la bouche et la peau
    abîmée par le soleil.
