Sixteen Candles...

Here is your Friday Five...five videos with a particular theme!

I started this list a while back after hearing a song that struck me as odd.

Here are (at least) five songs about jailbait.

I just can't imagine where musicians get such a bad rap!

These were just the songs that I knew of off the top of my head...a quick search came up with many, MANY more!

Obviously these are in no certain order.

Is it ironic that a group calling themselves the Police had a huge hit about a teacher lusting for his student?



Nice try Winger, but 17 is still 17. Even if she above the age of consent...we know what you mean!



The 60's were a simpler time of love and peace and chasing young chicks in mini-skirts.



Even the Beatles were not above interest in a younger girl.



And you would think the groups would keep from ANNOUNCING the age of the girl they would be arrested for stalking!



And a bonus track...just to prove the members of the Beatles never changed. (Even if it mean remaking a jailbait song!)


So there you have it. Although there were a few songs about women chasing underage guys these seemed a little, well, creepier!

Happy Friday!

Dead or Alive

A couple weeks ago I said I was going to start a Friday night music blog.

Naturally I've been busy the past couple weeks and didn't do it...so here's the Saturday morning version!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Jim Morrison, lead singer of the doors allegedly died while in Paris on July 3, 1971. I say allegedly because there are those who still believe he faked his own death.

In fact you can see a picture of his "ghost" here.





More recently, and you may have missed this, Michael Jackson died.

And yes, there are those who say he faked his death.



Here's an oldie but a goodie.

I actually found people who think that Glenn Miller faked his death while performing during WW II! Presumably because his body was never recovered...



Then there was Kurt Cobain. Who supposedly took his own life because of the strain on him being successful. Isn't it wonderful that people can waste valuable band width with their conspiracy websites?



Naturally we have Elvis Aaron Presley. There are enough conspiracy theories about his death to write a book...or several of them.



Clearly he was in a good state of mind...lol.

That's it for this week!

Enjoy your weekend!

Time is on my side...

Where the heck has a year gone?!?!

When I started this little blog with the intention of writing something every day for one year I did understand the immensity of that task!

So now, with less than a month left until the year is up I need to make an effort to at least post more regularly!

As part of that I'm going to start the Friday night music scene. A selection of videos that may have nothing in common other than I got a kick out of them!

I do something similar every day on facebook with my mid-day musical interlude...a song (or two) every day that can break up the monotony!

Tonight we'll go LIVE and start of with something a little more mellow:




And now some more sweet harmonies:


And while we're telling stories about bands how about a little life on the road:



And one more about life on the road:

So there ya have it!

If you want to see a set of particular songs let me know!

By the time we got to woodstock

So this past week on Jeff and Glenn @ 10...what? You don't listen?

Cripes...here. Listen:



So anyway, being the 40th anniversary of Woodstock just passed us by we got to talking about One Hit Wonders and if we could get them all together for a kind of "Crapstock".

And since I'm kind of obsessive about these things I put together a play list with EVERY SONG we mention.

All of them.






Have a listen! And remember...there are plenty more we could have added so feel free to comment with your favorites and maybe I'll put together another list!


Thanks!

Nothing from Nothing

You know sometimes (as hard as it might be to believe) I really have nothing to say!

That's why I don't blog everyday anymore.

I mean really, lets face facts, how interesting could I be? And while I have tons of opinions that I haven't even began to touch on yet I can't always think of something clever to jot down here.

So just enjoy the video!

Silent Night

I think not!

Since I can no longer post my play lists to My Space I wanted to share my warped sense of Christmas humor here instead!

Click play on the player below and have a wonderfully twisted Christmas!
