July Jones

This fan video of a kid removing layers of clothing is more mesmerizing than I'd reckoned for. (Don't worry, it's all about the outfits. Sorry to spoil the suspense, but do you think I'd re-post k*dd*e p*rn?)

Use It

Great video! I'd never seen it before. Yep, that's David Cross as one of the puppet-operators.

Two sips from the cup of human kindness
and I'm shit faced, just laid to waste

Guess I'm on a New Pornographers kick. Not complaining.

All The Old Showstoppers

Yummy acoustic version of this song from the New Pornographers' most recent album. Not sure why I woke with it. Here's a gander at some ideas about the meaning of the lyrics.

Sing Me Spanish Techno

Cute cross-dressy video, but the story and images are so front-and-center that it sort of distracts from the music. I've grown more and more fond of The New Pornographers the more I've listened to them. They're fun, musically complex and poppy at the same time, lyrically compelling, and I love the vocal interplay between A.C. Newman and Neko Case.
