Manic Monday

I've become pretty compulsive about the way my blog posts are solely dedicated to the random songs that play in my head on Sunday mornings.  Yesterday, something rare happened.  I had an original tune in my head (I believe it originated in my own mind, either that or it's an existing tune that I couldn't remember, whatever it was it was a lousy tune and I can't remember it now, and this parenthesis is super long) and so I couldn't make an authentic post yesterday.

I thought I skip a week, but when I woke up on Monday morning with this familiar song (dedicated to Mondays!) by the Bangles stuck in my head, it felt OK to post.

This one should take you back, here's Manic Monday by The Bangles, enjoy!





Say Aha

If you like rad music by rad people, here's "Say Aha" by Santigold.   Enjoy the song stuck in my head.





Have a good week errybody

The Coming Up Roses

Today's song came as a HUGE surprise, it's from a fantastic (and relatively unknown) band called Rodeo Ruby Love.  This is "The Coming Up Roses" which is the 6th track on their 2010 album "THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS.

Before I show you the song, let me tell you what's great about this track:

Lots of things.


First and foremost though is that it's not a typical pop song by any means.  It's a little 'all over the place' and presents several different ideas as it progresses.  But the best part, for me is when the band comes in singing in unison (think 'Carry That Weight' by the Beatles)

Most of us had hit rock bottom 
before we chose to acknowledge the effort that goes in.
Most of us were strapped for meaning, 
so we stood up and started swinging and landed a good shot on the chin.
Most of us were riding shotgun 
1970 Plymouth Valiant to Carmel and back again




I don't know what it is about this song, just the energy of it all and the band members singing in unison, it's just rad.


Guess what!?!?  Today's song gives me enough music to have filled another compilation disc, NOW THAT'S WHAT BRADY'S SUBCONSCIOUS CALLS MUSIC! VOLUME 3.




You could win this disc.  I don't want to make a big deal about this, but just leave a comment here and I'll send you a copy of this disc along with some other surprises.  Seriously, just make a comment.  I dare you!

(If I happen to not know you, maybe leave a way I can contact you, email or phone number or address or something.  If you aren't comfortable doing that you can email me cashbrady@gmail.com)
And now the sad part, where we say goodbye to each other.

Technologic

Don't ask me how this one happened.  It's a long story and I don't have the time.


Here's "Technologic" by French duo, Daft Punk.  I hope the creepy little robot with headgear doesn't creep you out too much. 










Scared much?  Sorry about this one.
