Smack My Ass and Call Me Friday Song of the Week: Particle Man

I woke up with this song in my head today, so it has to be song of the week.

Like some sort of message from gawd.

Or from Particle Man, perhaps.

Have a fight-free weekend.

Smack My Ass Song of the Week: Won’t Say Anything

I heard Won’t Say Anything by Hello Seahorse! on the Ritmo Latino podcast last week and think I listened to it about 12 times on the plane the day before yesterday.

And the video’s pretty darn great.

Have a super nifty weekend.

 

The Smack My Ass and Call Me Friday Song of the Week: Rasputin

Lyrics, people, lyrics. If you want a hit song, you gotta have lyrics:
RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia’s greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

I can’t really say that one video is better than the other, so here’s another.

For Rasputin.

Boney M.
Rasputin.
‘Nuff said.

Have a lovely weekend.

Smack My Ass and Call Me Friday Song of the Week: Camouflage

Hey. Has anyone seen last Friday?

WTF.

Have a look at the vid, and then download the song or the whole album, FOR FREE!

Have a camo-weekend!

Smack My Ass and Call Me Friday Song of the Week: She Left Me For Jesus

I’ve been listening to Hayes Carll’s album Trouble in Mind all week.

I don’t know why. It just feels right.

He writes lyrics like I would if I were a country western artist.

That’s not to say that I won’t be a country artist one day.

I’m just not one right at the moment.

Listen to She Left Me For Jesus Here!

Have a Jesus’s ass-kicking weekend.
