words about words


Since my trip to our nation’s capitol, I am feeling so damn patriotic, I decided to share. What’s ‘American’ on your iPod? Frenchies–you got any songs that begin avec ‘France?’ Please note, I pronounced it ‘fraaahnce’ in my head.
 
So funny. And I love a song that includes bad words in the title. Nothing better than the F-bomb.
 
From the last good Weezer album. Did I mention me no likey the new one? Yeah, I did. Yet, Weezer bassist Scott Shriner thinks this is a great song to listen to while playing racing games. Interview here.
 
Love love love this song. Also reminds me of The Silence of the Lambs when the senator’s daughter is driving along, rocking out to this song, oblivious to the fact that the freak is lying in wait for her skin. "It puts the lotion in the basket."
 
Best album in the last ten years. Truly. Don’t forget to enter my Xbox Rock Journalist contest for a chance to win Green Day concert tickets.
 
I also dig the Lenny Kravitz version of this song. But it also reminds me of how annoying Heather Graham was in The Spy Who Shagged Me. Hot, but annoying. Loved her in Boogie Nights though.
 
BTW, just got a pair of those Bose noise-cancelling headphones. Sooooo delightful. Only drawback is I don’t realize how loud I’m singing.
