Like imagine being somebody who watches the guy on the […]

Music Monday – “I ain’t taking you home, I found a little place that’ll do/It’ll never match the beauty of a Tennessee spring/But it’s something new”

Music Monday – Spike Lee’s “Do It Acapella”

Normally I feature a single song in my Music Monday posts but a recent Twitter thread about how popular acapella was in the 1990’s reminded me of this documentary I happened to catch on PBS when it was first broadcast. Later, I found the CD in a record store, possibly in the States, and it’s […]

Music Monday – “2020, 24 hours to go/I Wanna Be Sedated”

I saw this clever play on words from the lyrics of a Ramones song on Twitter and had to steal it for today’s Music Monday post with 2020 being the craziest year in a century and twenty-fours until we’re watching election returns in the United States… “I Wanna Be Sedated” – The Ramones
