Monday Morning Music - Oh baby!

Monday Morning Music is a tune that was in my head when I woke up.

Travis - Hit Me Baby One More Time


Legend says this was originally the band screwing around during a sound test for a live performance for a radio interview.  Regardless of where it came from, it's the best version of this song out there.

I Tell Ya Tuesday is a quick-hit thought of the day.

I Tell Ya...

I never wanted this guy to leave, as he still had much to teach us.

Monday Morning Music - The One That Will Bring Balance

Monday Morning Music is a tune I was thinking about when I woke up this morning.

Duel of the Fates - John Williams Orchestra



One of the things I've always loved about "Star Wars" is the scope of the story.  George Lucas once referred to it as "Space Opera" and all great operas have great music.  John Williams' score sets the tone and pushes the story forward as well (if not better) than any other movie out there.

Monday Morning Music - Oh No!

Monday Morning Music is a tune that I was thinking about when I woke up this morning. 



"You Really Got Me" by Van Halen.

Originally done by The Kinks, Van Halen did a cover of this song for their '78 self-titled debut album.  Their video was, well, not interesting enough for me to post, but I remembered the Nissan commercial (although I thought it was Mazda) and it's one of my faves.

I Tell Ya Tuesday - VOTE!

I Tell Ya Tuesday is a quick hit thought of the day.

I Tell Ya...

If you don't vote, you waive your right to complain about decisions made by the government for the duration of their term.
