Lindy

I might be posting this just because I don't want to work, but ignore that for now. I was just browsing through my previous posts and found my comments on Lindy who opened for Tegan & Sarah. I thought - hmmm - I was really impressed by this guy - I wonder if I still appreciate his music. So I go back to his web site, start listening to the _entire album free_ off the site and conclude:

Give this dude some radio play!

He's great! Yes, he sounds a lot like other people, but he's still solid as a rock. That deserves some recognition. I've heard _nothing_ about this guy anywhere. Why? Maybe he's not being promoted? Maybe people don't like him? It all seems very strange to me. How can you invest the amount of money necessary to make an album sound this good and not manage to stir up some more commotion? Let me know if you figure out an answer to any of these questions...

Back to work.

Beck - "Everybody's gotta learn sometime"

I mentioned that I like the song from the end of "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind." But I never looked in to who did it. Well, they just played it on the radio this morning. I would have never guessed, but it's Beck! Whodathunkit?

It's good stuff. And quite unBeckish to my knowledge. Good work Beck!

Hmm... now that I'm listening to it... it reminds me of Aimee Mann's stuff in the movie Magnolia... hmmm... any reasons for this???
