The Return of the Lazy Ass DRH
This Tuesday (June 14) I will be pinch hitting for Spaz with another (can you believe it, the 15th time!) Lazy Ass DRH. I knew the day would come when Spaz (who has a real life) would want a backup, so I've been putting this together for a little while. Roughly speaking, it progresses from mellow to rocking, but it's a winding road.
John Klemmer - Touch (remind me to talk about the "If you can/can't" mixtapes ) Oscar Peterson - Nightingale Fiona Apple - Left Alone Ani DiFranco - Untouchable Face (perhaps the best ever song about unrequited love - another post with lyrics to follow) Sneaker Pimps - 6 Underground Public Image Ltd - Rise The War On Drugs - Under The Pressure Bad Company - Seagull (prepare for a pleasant surprise if you don't know the song) The Tragically Hip - Ahead By A Century A Flock Of Seagulls - Space Age Love Song CSNY - Wooden Ships Howard Jones - Natural Ben Folds - Annie Waits New Pornographers - Twin Cinema Sinead O'Connor - Mandinka Cage The Elephant - No Rest For The Wicked (one of my favorite non-prog bands operating today) The Breeders - Divine Hammer Spin Doctors - How Could You Want Him (When You Know You Could Have Me) Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Zero !!! - Myth Takes (sha sha sha, sha sha shadoobie ) Mighty Mighty Bosstones - The Impression That I Get Les Dudek - Down To Nothing White Stripes - My Doorbell Benjamin Booker - Violent Shiver Soul Asylum - Somebody To Shove |

Re: The Return of the Lazy Ass DRH
Untouchable Face by Ani DiFranco - what a song. Great lyrics, and the gentle intensity of the "fuck you"s - I am willing to bet she lived that.
excerpted: To tell you the truth I prefer the worst of you Too bad you had to have a better half She's not really my type But I think you two are forever And I hate to say it But you're perfect together So fuck you, and your untouchable face, and Fuck you, for existing in the first place And who am I, that I should be vying for your touch And who am I, I bet you can't even tell me that much and the imagery: 2:30 in the morning, my gas tank will be empty soon Neon sign on the horizon, rubbing elbows with the moon Safe haven of the sleepless, where the deep fryer is always on Radio is counting down top 20 country songs And out on the porch a flystrip is waving like a flag in the wind You know I don't look forward to seeing you again You'll look like a photograph of yourself Taken from far far away I won't know what to do, I won't know what to say, except Fuck you... pure genius |
