Friday and the Random 10 (Good Friday Edition)

Happy Good Friday everyone! Or is it just Good Friday to you all? I don't know the best way to say it and surely don't want Catholics mad at me. Either way, you know what day it is. 

Quick Von, distract them with music. Hey look down there:

Friday and the Random 10 (End of July Edition)

So today marks the end of July and how do we celebrate the end of a month that ends on a Friday around here? That's right, one song for every day of the month! So today instead of a Random 10 you get a Random 31! This ought to make the picture below hella interesting:



Well, got 25 of them...

Friday and the Random 10 (5 Star Edition)

Well how was that for a Super Bowl? Not bad huh? I wasn't too far off with my prediction of New England by a score of 33-30 (it was actually 28-24). Seriously though Seattle, run the damn ball.

In bigger and better news though, Bama pulled in yet another #1 recruiting class. Ho hum. It would be really nice if we got some to stay for the senior year instead of bolting for the NFL. That's what happens when you sign all those 5 star recruits. #BamaProblems

Let's see how many stars this week's Random 10 would get! But first, as a quick review of last week, you can follow this link, or check out the cool picture below: 



As always the rules and whatnot are up there ↑ at the top next to the Home tab.

Friday and the Random 10 (Sir Psycho Sexy Edition)

Blah. Exactly. I'm not exactly feeling it this morning, but I don't want to disappoint my two or three fans. Everybody say "ugh".

Once again, no one got banned last week so anything is possible. As usual the rules and whatnot are up there ↑ at the top.

Ready for the meh? Here it is...

1) Foreigner/Hot Blooded - Off to a good start. Classic.

2) Pink Floyd/One of the Few - Slow and creepy, about what you would expect.

3) Kansas/No One Together - Third classic band in a row. Album cover winner:


4) The Rolling Stones/Gimme Shelter - Shout out to Tabitha on this one.

5) Starship/Good Heart - Basic 80's crap.

6) Cherry Poppin' Daddies/We'll Always Have Paris - More rocking than swinging on this one. Eh.

7) Red Hot Chili Peppers/Sir Psycho Sexy - I hereby nominate this as my new nickname.

8) Jimmy Buffett/Domino College - Working vacation in a third word nation. I'll be studying the World Cup?

9) America/Daisy Jane - Because, 'merica.

10) The Cars/Moving in Stereo - Another great one.

I know I didn't start this one with great enthusiasm, but there were some really great songs this time around. Not "meh" at all. Maybe if I go into it next time with low expectations... Yeah.

So once again no one gets banned and the Tarkus might be dying a slow death. We'll need to feed that thing soon. The STCS for this week is Jimmy Buffett/Margaritaville. Ha! Ask and you shall receive! No blonde strangers next week (see what I did there?) And Jimmy, there's always a woman to blame.

As always stay cool and dry central Florida, and Roll Tide!

Play us out boys!

Friday (Night) and the Random 10

I almost forgot today was Friday! I guess I was so excited on finally having a day off tomorrow that I just focused on getting through work as soon as I could. Never fear though, I won't leave everyone hanging...

Bamageddon and the Random 10

I didn't get time to post this yesterday so i'm going to take care of it today. And today is a special day: Alabama vs LSU, #1 vs #2, good vs evil, etc. Some are calling today a game for the ages. I am calling it Bama-geddon <deep scary echoing voice>.

So anyway, I'm calling on the football gods and the gods of chance and randomness to give me a killer awesome Top 10 to take me into tonite's clash. Bring it on!

1) Daft Punk/Victory - hell yeah, is that an omen? From the Tron soundtrack.

2) Porcupine Tree/Strip the Soul - that's what Bama will do to the LSU players

3) Red Hot Chili Peppers/I Could Have Lied - nice mellow song

4) Jon Anderson/Everybody Loves You - but I love you just a little bit more...

5) Journey/In My lonely Feeling/Conversations - talk about some great old Journey! Gonna share this one:


6) Cyndi Lauper/I Drove All Night - for such a quirky person she certainly has an amazing voice

7) Third Day/I've Always Loved You - for Cat, not that she reads this or cares the way I do

8) Chicago/Loneliness is Just a Word - great early Chicago (mandatory album cover below)


9) Aerosmith/Back in the Saddle - back to #1 where we belong!

10) The Rolling Stones/Miss You - wow, alot of songs about missing, loving and being lonely but that conversation is for another time...I'll stick to the VICTORY and left Daft Punk play us out...
ROLL TIDE!

Friday and the Random 10

Another week has gone by and as I began to write this I realized that my music collection has become pretty static. There's not much I've added in quite awhile (any suggestions?), although I do delete stuff from time to time. I guess I'm just not big on newer music, mainly because I think most of it is crap. Give me substance over style. And like I've always said, if you have to mention your own name in a song OR if every one of your songs has a dance routine to it you can just count me out.

Now that I've said my little rant, let's get on to the music! (after saying all that, Karma is about to bite me in the ass I'm sure).

1) It's Only Rock 'n' Roll/The Rolling Stones - but I like it...

2) ABBA/Under Attack - ok, I figured ABBA would show up at some point...yes I like them...2 hot Swedish women? Yes, please! But I must admit I had never heard this song before. Very disco-y

3) AC/DC/Guns for Hire - these guys seem to show up every week and that's completely fine with me

4) The Beatles/Because - love the vocals in this song...gonna give you the Across the Universe movie version cuz I think it's awesome


5) YES/Shoot High Aim Low - finally we get YES showing up again! Great song from the Big Generator album (mandatory cover below). This is actually 2 songs sung at the same time, one by JonJon and the other by Trevor but it works. Great, if over-produced, album.


6) Foreigner/Counting Every Minute - don't even remember this song. I think this is right before they went wimp.

7) Camel/Survival - this is a band i don't know much about, but they've been around forever apparently (like the early 70's) and I haven't heard anything from them I haven't liked

8) Across the Universe Soundtrack/Helter Skelter - cool that I mentioned the movie earlier

9) Van Halen/1984 - the little synthesizer intro right before "Jump" starts up...awesomeness

10) Europe/In the Future to Come - 80's hair metal...meh...only downloaded this (as i'm sure everyone else does) for The Final Countdown song

I'll let YES play us out...
