the breakfast song








while a lot of music from the bay area was talking about thizzing, going dumb and doing donuts, Sneaky Mike was apparently sneaking wholesome messages into his songs. not only do i love how the song reinforces that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and that it tells kids to "go to school, go to school" but i'm also a believer in having songs that celebrate little things and routines in everyday life. i can't lie, i've had this in my head many a morning while i was sitting at the table... ahhh you know the rest






Blacken Chinese Man




i think i'm soon to be a reh dogg fan. the internet went nuts with 'why must i cry', but i have a feeling there are some overlooked gems with titles such as 'scrap book fun' 'online friendships hurt' 'i am the soul taker' 'you say i'm ugly', and 'i'm not ugly'(hopefully a retort to the previous track).

i actually really like this track. it's been stuck in my head all day. i'm hoping there will be more reh dogg goodness and i'll be sure to share it.

Are You On 1 Matey?



usually there is something musically redeeming in the songs i post, but i'm not gonna lie - this one is almost solely for the title. and of course, the gifs

i love my comfy sweater



this is hands down in my running for catchiest song of 2009. haters can talk to the moose



orcas fight forever



you can't deny this song. i've always liked the "and fight to the end but i'm only humaaannnnnnn" line. like does he think that he needs a whale to fight or that whales live forever?

mj and keiko are swimming and fighting together in that big blue ocean in the sky.

I'm such a fan of monologues in songs part 1

"You know how we used to play with the echo. The echo in The Valley of Love. All of a sudden you said, "Who's in love with Danny?, -anny?...-anny?..." And that's when I first come to know you love me."


incredible.
