'I'm begging you to beg me...' - Cheap Trick
Enough of these half-assed entries. It's time for the rock n roll. Or at least, some more rock talk, what you've all become accustomed to, correct?
I just completed the most crushileptic minidisc compilation. Oh yes indeed. You wanna hear it? Well... I'll tell you the tracklisting at least cause hotdamn, it's just that good!
Crushileptic & Crushworthy
- Lister - Uncomplicated [cry if someone ever sings this to you]
- Cheap Trick - I Want You To Want Me [live at Budokan from my pretty vinyl]
- The Lowest Of The Low - Bleed A Little While Tonight [live at the Warehouse 2000, reunion show]
- Rufus Wainwright - Heartburn [gay boys break my heart, ha!]
- Radiohead - True Love Waits/Awaits/whatever the hell they're calling it now [live 1997, the original version -- just Thom and an acoustic gui-tah]
- Pulp - Ansaphone [sooo sad when this gets played at Zaphod's... or on my CD player... or anywhere]
- Cure - Friday I'm In Love [one of my alltime favourite cheer-up songs -- I've listened to it every Friday for the past... too many years]
- REM - At My Most Beautiful [live and acoustic, with Mikey Stipe cracking jokes]
- Eels - PS You Rock My World [you all rock my world... you know it, you know it!]
- Veal - Spiderman [put your fist in the air and praise Luke Doucet!]
- A New Found Glory - Hit Or Miss [Nothing Gold Can Stay album version... the radio version just sounds weirddd to me]
- American Hi-Fi - Flavour Of The Weak [welcome to the cheezy-punk section of the mix]
- Weezer - El Scorcho [I've officially declared this pretty bus boy song ha!]
- New Order - Temptation [oh you got green eyes...]
- Spirit Of The West - So Political [the slow, pretty acoustic version from Labour Day]
- Sloan - Take It In [live in Toronto, 2000, with audience participation]
- The Lowest Of The Low - Subversives [live at the Warehouse 2000 reunion show... with inserted Weakerthans lyrics yaaaaaaaay!]
- The Dears - Heartless Romantic [you're just unlovable]
- Danny Michel - Another Love Song [just to cap off the cheese factor... a mockery by the great Danny]
See? Perfection in minidisc form. Well... for me at least. Kind of an odd mix, but perfectly fitting for this week.
Stereophonics Dave gets cooler and cooler every day... he claims he will be there to dance with me tonight... we shall see cause normally I'm the only one dancing to whatever Gary spins on Wednesdays... woo rrrock! I need my Zaphod's fix... you know... 66 hours and whatnot.
I'd take the Dears over the New Pornographers.
I'd take Ron Hawkins /solo over The Lowest Of The Low
I'd take Pulp over Oasis
But I still love them all.
Okay, so maybe it was another pointless entry...
