Heavy Rain

One of the things that I am thankful for this special season is that these dudes are making music together again. They make a fine hook. I think you'll dig it.

Artist: Ambulance LTD
Song: Heavy Lifting

True enough, I hear them take you away
But you could be home in a day
And let the hammer fall
Alone because my friends have places to go
My people have people to know
They've never seemed so remote

I'm taking it easy if it comes to fate
But for the time I've gotta wait

Soothe your bones
With the papers of a man that you know
His kids are really gonna grow
And leave their daddy home
But it's an easy game
Those clouds bring heavy, heavy rain
And lifting is an awful lot of pain
We're gonna be sore for sure

I'm takin it easy if it comes to fate
But for the time I've gotta wait

I'm takin it easy if it comes to fate
But for the time I've gotta wait

Close Your Eyes

I have been diggin' the Brit Pop. This is catchy.

Ashes to Ashes

Beck Silhouette

[via FoxyTunes / Beck]

I appreciate the Beck. I respect how the man can make an album sound like several different genres of music. This song is one of my favorite tunes and driven by that thick bottom bass line. Reflect.

Artist: Beck
Song: Paper Tiger

Just like a paper tiger
Torn apart by idle hands
Through the helter skelter morning
Fix yourself while you still can
No more ashes to ashes
No more cinders from the sky
All the laws of creation
Tell a dead man how to die

O deserts down below us
And storms up above
Like a stray dog gone defective
Like a paper tiger in the sun

Looking through a broken diamond
To make the past what it should be
Through the ruins and the weather
Capsized boats in the sea

O deserts down below us
And storms up above
Like a stray dog gone defective
Like a paper tiger in the sun

We're just holding on to nothing
To see how long nothing lasts

O deserts down below us
And storms up above
Like a stray dog gone defective

There's one road to the morning
There's one road to the truth
There's one road back to civilization
But there's no road back to you....

Compliment

Stephen Malkmus, Connect Festival

[via FoxyTunes / Pavement]

Every time this song comes up on a play list or randomly in my life I smile. It makes me think of good times with friends and question why on Earth Pavement doesn't sell more albums than Brittany Spears. Seriously. I think Stephen Malkmus has a great way with words. Never knew that Gypsy children wore electric dresses (They're Insane). One day I hope to be a light.

You Are A Light.mp3

Artist: Pavement
Song: You Are A Light

Tangled in the midst of all the trust
the way you pissed inside
the brain file technology drives.
Show me you dots now.
Who was it that said the world
was mainly all divorces and spare change?
Let's lethalize our slingshots and swallow propane.
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.

Senior year abroad i ripped the pea out of the pod.
In store for three months of exile in spain.
Where was the danger?
Watch out for the gypsy children in electric dresses
they're insane.
I hear they live in crematoriums
and smoke your remains.
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.
You are the liiiight. The calm in the day.

I drive a stick. Gotta love it. Automatic.
Oh everybody's gotta ride in something.
High life, lived, comatosed him! Bring it on in.
I hope it arrives by monday.
Dry ice, skid, button the strippers and ??????
I have to die on sunday!
I rake in, laundry-matt spenders, and ??????
Who rolls with the isolater.
Gotta roll cause i am the isolater.
