Nowhere, Man!





I love Target! (Duh!) I go there at least 4 times per week. And if they had the song from their latest commercial playing on a loop in the store, I might never leave. Unless you haven't bothered to turn on your TV since January 4th, when the Ad 1st ran with the Golden Globes, you must have seen it by now. It contains the sweetest cover of the Beatles song "Hello, Goodbye" that I have ever heard! I immediately "googled" the commercial in an attempt to find out where I could get this song, and after a few misleads I was able to track it down to a Bossa Nova/Jazz/ sometimes Jingle singer, Sophia Shorai. Unfortunately, the song seems to have exclusively recorded for Target, and is not available on any record. Hateful! So that is a serious bummer, but at least someone uploaded the full version to Youtube, so I can see/listen whenever I'd like. In the mean time I check everyday to make sure the recording hasn't been produced in its entirety. *sigh* If you haven't seen it yet, check it out below. You can also catch The Beetles original version as well as some tracks from a band who got their name from the song's title. Enjoy!

ANESTHETIC!!!






So I had to go back to the dentist today. That's right, back! In the past 2 months I've spent a good deal of money and a fair amount of time at the dentist's office. He's a nice enough gentleman, I just don't know why he enjoys putting the hurt on me. 2 hours and 3 fillings later the corners of my mouth are sore, my gums are bleeding and the entire right hand side of my face is completely numb! I would swear that I had just had a stroke if only it were on the left! Anyway, while I wait for my face to stop feeling like it's swollen beyond recognition, I thought I should post some songs so that my pain might be your musical pleasure! Enjoy.

Alanis Morissette - King of Pain

"You don't have to mean it, but just say it."


"Well, what am I supposed to do? You won't answer my calls, you change your number. I mean, I'm not gonna be ignored, Dan!"



I'm not really one for sappy love songs, so instead I offer you love gone wrong. This is a playlist for the Alex Forrests and the Madison Belles of the world. The crazies who take the slightest feign of interest to mean deep and undying love. Or perhaps it should serve as a warning to all of the Dan Gallaghers and Ben Cronins, don't play with a woman's emotions. She will fuck you up!

Enjoy!
