Music Interlude

Erik Satie’s Gnossienne 1. I thought it highly nice to hear on All Hallow’s Eve. Sounds as if someone’s trailing you as you walk the neighborhood in search of candy.

Je Te Veux

Cute asian playing Erik Satie’s “Je te veux?” That’s what I want to hear in the morning. Waltzes get no love nowadays, but you can’t deny that the 3/4 time signature is pretty. 1-2-3, 1-2-3, up-down-down, loud-quiet-quiet. It’s a fine for a musical interlude in the day. May this waltz smooth out the rest of your day.

Faster Than My Bullet

Goodbye, August! Hello, September or as we call it around here News Radio Quote Month. I can’t believe I’m still doing it after all these years. I’m wondering if I have exhausted all the great quotes from the show leaving me with the “Matthew this” or “Lisa that” quotes. Plus, I can’t believe I am still into that show. You would think I would forget it like I’ve done with Northern Exposure or The X-Files, but it hangs around here like a Month of Quotes.

I see that CapitolSwell is taking up the challenge. Bring it!

Better Run Better Run

End of summer? What better way to end it with the song of summer? You don’t think this was it? Perhaps you can clue me in to the one that you thought was summertime 2011. Use the comments.

With The Pumped Up Kicks

We’re taking this to the end of the month. You’ve got to love this song. And better yet learn it on your guitar. Let’s begin.

Arson, Inc

If you all followed me on twitter, you would’ve been treated to my crazy rants (crazants!) on how I feel about the Orioles. I think I’ve raged against them every game. Last night, they were coming back (I know, right?), but then Matusz who although kept them in the game through six, still sucks though, was relieved by the worse bunch of “pitchers” in the MLB. I’ve gone to calling these guys arsonists: the opposite of what relief pitching should be doing. They’re throwing gas on the fire!

Anyhow, I believe this song is appropriate for our bullpen. Wouldn’t it be funny if Camden Yards music director played this for our chief arsonist Kevin Gregg when he comes out in relief? It would be awesome!

All the other kids

I miss playing my acoustic guitar. I doesn’t sound good going through my Fender Jaguar Amp. I don’t have it near me so I barely play it. Maybe I’m looking for a new one. That Taylor looks mighty nice. Wait! I thought I wanted a Jaguar. Maybe later, then.

Here we go again with another round of covers on Youtube. If you don’t like the original, then you might not like this. And if you don’t like the original, then what’s wrong with you. Isn’t it the song of the summer?
