If you're anything like me, you'll latch on to a song, and listen to it non stop for about a week. After that you'll move on to the next thing that pleases your auditory senses.

So, what song are you going to be listening to for this ongoing week ?
Old or new - any genre of music, it's all good.

Stoneface & Terminal - St Francis Foley (Club Mix)


Skip to 2:50 if you want to get to the good stuff right away.

I really mix things up, so that I don't get stuck on something. One exception a few months ago was when I got a Sting song stuck in my head and saw the outrageous video that went along with it. Now what's with that hair-do?

OK, you must stop listening for a few days before venturing back into the addiction. It's a really "hooky" song and it will stay in your head for a long time - especially if you have had personal experiences that you can relate to the lyrics.

OK, I've got to admit that this song got my attention for a week or so, and I bought the CD, too. Vince and Rodney play each others' wives in the video, and really ham it up.

Is that a cool hair-do? I wouldn't have paid for that one, unless I was planning to make an off-the-wall video, and then shave it off. ;-)

Wait a minute, Did you live in the apartment below me about 24-25 yrs ago? :-p Because if you did, man that was really annoying.

I don't think he's old enough to have had the dorm room next to mine back about 40 years ago. I'd put a hit on him if he owned up to it, though. Luckily, on the other side was a U of M pitcher who was a DJ on the campus FM station and who loved Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix, and Bob Dylan. I didn't always enjoy the stuff coming through the walls, but it wasn't absolute crap, either.

Ah I got this song stuck in my head. Always reminded me of my girl. Me and her are in some tough times now though. :( (Hopefully Cyrus doesn't read this lol:D)

You guys probably don't listen to this stuff anyways :P

I usually get on kicks for certain types of music and not so much certain songs.

Currently I am on an Irish Rock/Punk kick, looking for bands I have never heard of before. There actually is a certain song that I have been really hooked on though I guess. Its a rendition of [Come Out Ye] Black and Tans by Irish Stew of Sindidun.

Ha! I found it on youtube... note that there is a heavy political message with pictures to go along so some may be offended (specifically it is pro IRA).


edit: I am not sure why it says "black and trans"
