A HEARTS REVOLUTION

HEARTS REVOLUTION is the favorite of favorites. if the sugar coated pink ice cream truck the couple trek across town in doesn't win you over, then their gritty electro pop/punk dance beats certainly will. lo and ben are the hipster equivalent of the creepy ice cream man that will lure you in with sweetness and rob you off your will to say no. when you hear the revolution coming, you will drop everything, you won't look before crossing, you will give them everything you have and the next day you will be back begging for more.

"a revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having"





here's the video for C.Y.O.A. which stands for create your own adventure, its directed by jean demery and bastien lattanzio.

I WISH I COULD BE LIKE CALVIN HARRIS

i can not get enough calvin harris. first it was 'acceptable in the 80s' then it was 'colours' then 'the girls' and now i am stuck on his remix of the mitchell brothers 'michael jackson'

watch and wish.

"I wish I could move like Michael Jackson
Spin around have the world in a gaze
I wish I could move like Michael Jackson
Hit the ground, glide across the stage
I wish I could move like Michael Jackson
Getting down with my shoulders shakin
I said, I wish I could move like Michael Jackson

When I took a deep breath, and lifted my head up
That's when I wanted to be the man in the mirror
Right after I saw the zombies in Thriller,
I was no longer scared.
So I got a copy of Bad on VHS
Stayed up watching it to way past ten.
Played the car park scene over again and again,
religiously like a prayer."

SHARON JONES IS COMING TO TOWN

It's like santa came early this year....Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings are playing at El Rey Theater on Tuesday, December 4th. 8pm.




"Among the biggest keys to the Dap-Kings' success is that Jones is a fantastic singer, a masterful soul vocalist in the best tradition of Etta James, Bettye Lavette, and Irma Thomas. She can wail when she needs to, has access to a gentle falsetto when the song requires it, and has impeccable control, with a full-throated tone that grabs your attention. Jones isn't a fresh-faced youngster imitating her heroes, either-- she was at it in the 70s, singing backup on funk and disco records while seeking her own big break, but moved to gospel in the 80s when her style fell out of favor. In between her early career and her revival in the mid-90s, she worked as a prison guard and also did armored vehicle security work, and she brings the same tough, no-nonsense approach those jobs require to her music."

KATY PERRY EP IS OUT BEEOTCHES!

it's like 2000 spoons when all you need is some crack. it's just so addicting y'all. katy perry is as cool as sheila e. with a voice like alanis morissette. her first single 'ur so gay' is so gay, like happy. the first time i played it in my car my two female passengers were tossing their heads out the windows and screaming the lyrics at the top of their lungs. one would easily assume this behavior could be attributed to the mass amounts of liquor consumed, which would probably also be to blame for their inappropriate and selfish use of the repeat function and relentless demands for dangerously high volume levels; however, when the experiment was repeated sans mai tais and margaritas, the song was just as addictingly good (i don't care if that's not even a word). ms. perry also just killed it on a cover of the outfields 'your love' that starts with my personal favorite pick up line, "i know you know my boyfriend is out of town, so have a drink lets talk it over," and end with "i think i'm done fuckin singing this song." but katy's not just another man-hatin-lilith-fair-lezzy with a killer voice, witty lyrics and catchy beats, she's a fucking rock star, bon jovi move ovi.


"I hope you hang yourself with your H&M scarf
While jacking off listening to Mozart
You bitch and moan about LA
Wishing you were in the rain reading Hemmingway
You don’t eat meat
And drive electrical cars
You’re so indie rock it’s almost an art
You need SPF 45 just to stay alive
Ur so gay and you don’t even like boys
No you don’t even like
No you don't even like
No you don’t even like boys
You’re so sad maybe you should buy a happy meal
You’re so skinny maybe you should super size the deal
Secretly you’re so amused
That nobody understands you
I’m so mean cause I cannot get your outta your head
I’m so angry cause you rather MYSPACE instead
I can’t believe I fell in love with someone that wears more makeup"
