"You M-O-V-E me, L-O-V-E."
Today's release of the outstanding new Basement Jaxx album, Crazy Itch Radio, made me realize that I have not really blogged about new music for a long time.
So here are some songs I really like right now:
- "Hush Boy" by Basement Jaxx. Groovy, jazzy, funky, weird, clever.
- "Summersong" by The Decemberists. They're back.
- "Mr. Tough" by Yo La Tengo - The horns add a special touch.
- "SexyBack" by Justin Timberlake - I love it, and I don't care who knows it.
- "We're Gonna Boogie" by Primal Scream. The veterans return to their dirty, bluesy roots with this grinding, trashy harmonica-laden extravaganza.
- "I Don't Feel Like Dancing" by Scissor Sisters. It's early Elton John meets the Bee Gees, and it is four minutes of campy fun. Lighten up, won't you?
- "Sundress" by Ben Kweller - Poppy, silly, fun.
- "And I Was a Boy from School" by Hot Chip. This song makes me smile and tap my toes. It's that electronic/indie combo I like so much.

Can I ask you a question? Did you ever by chance travel the state of Minnesota and graffiti the name "C-dub" on things? Because I saw it today on a lighthouse in Duluth, as well as two weeks ago under the Brainerd bridge.
Nope. Not me. I have seen a few of them, but I cannot claim responsibility.
wait, didn't this exact same set of comments happen on this blog earlier?
Or am I crazy?
Yes, and yes.
i remember seeing c-dub under a bridge one time when we were all on a treasure hunt. where? i do not remember
I don't really like the new Primal Scream album, at least from what I've heard.. never got into Ben Kweller.. Hot Chip, though, is a good album.
Yeah, I don't really like Primal Scream's whole album either, but I do like that song. (I love a couple of their earlier albums though.) And I too have never really gotten into Ben Kweller, but I do like that song.
