The Bay Rays - Satisfaction





Bank Holiday last Monday, Bank Holiday next Monday - this Monday needs a little something to brighten it up.  We kinda think a little music from a hot young band from the Garden of England is just perfect...

Keith Urban - The Fighter ft. Carrie Underwood





If you've been coming here for a while, you know we have a soft spot for some good ole boy music.  Sundays are a good day to indulge that and especially when the video we've chosen shows Carrie Underwood throwing some bad ass shapes...

Sinead O'Connor - Mandinka (1989 Grammy's)





In these days when no-one seems to be able to take the stage without an army of dancers with them, lets take a moment to appreciate the bravery, and sheer audacity, of a 21 year old Irish girl going up on the Grammy's stage completely alone with a shaved head, jeans and dm's.  Sinead - you will always hold a spot in our heart...

My Chemical Romance - "Welcome To The Black Parade" [Official Music Video]





A note:  over a decade ago, I discovered through lucky chance the blog Deus Ex Malcontent.  The author of that blog was Chez Pazienza, a journalist and Emmy-award winning news editor for CNN.  Chez poured his heart into that blog and bared his soul.  His acerbic wit took no hostages and I found a kindred soul in both his politics and his music choices.  I have followed his journey since the day I found him and daily I have sought him out, following him from DEM to Facebook and Twitter as well as the various outlets he wrote for such as HuffPo.  Lately, his voice has rung in my ears though his podcast with Bob Cesca.  The world has lost an important voice this weekend.

As Chez writes here http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chez-pazienza/my-chemical-romance-break-up_b_2995004.html, I guess all that's left is to say a very heartfelt thanks and you will be missed...
