How You Like Me Now? - The Heavy On Letterman
The performance from last week including the full encore (without commercial break).
The album, The House That Dirt Built, is available on eMusic. 6 download credits for 11 tracks (as of this writing). Just got it now as I had to wait till my download allowance refreshed. I don't think this deal existed last week, so I dunno how long it'll last.

Muse For Three Bucks - Again - Today
Last time it was Absolution, which I still haven't listened to, but I'll get this one too, as I still love Black Holes And Revelations.

As seen on Lightning Deals.

Prince's Fight Song
Written for the Minnesota Vikings. Not really into football or sports for that matter, except maybe girls volleyball which I used to catch on cable. Also participated in Superbowl pools at work. I think I won like twenty bucks one year. Anyhoo, I dunno what a football fight song is supposed to sound like. Some people are saying that he got it right, except for the falsetto, while others disagree.
A poster on Prince.org, Comegetwild, had this great comment; "It sounds like the national anthem of a small baltic country..."
True, and probably why I like it.
The song itself.
The recording... not so much. Even though it's probably just a demo, the performance is just so devoid of life and imagination, and the keyboard sounds, so cheesy... One wonders, how a guy like Prince, who never leaves his residence without eyeliner, hair immaculately done, and pimped out clothes, isn't somewhat embarrassed by what is the sonic equivalent to seeing the man garbed like a cracked out homeless person.
I, on the other hand, am occasionally dressed like a cracked out homeless person, so it's okay that my demos sound like that.
But the song itself, I like. He should'a got the guys from Queen to back him up. That would'a been a fight song. Or at least a song on the next Highlander soundtrack.

I Have A Dream... Of Low Prices!
I guess this has been happening for a while. If it's good enough for Washington, Lincoln and the Sun God (AKA Jesus), commercialization's good for Martin, too.
I did my laundry today. Had to segregate the the whites from the coloreds. Maybe one day I'll be able to drop them all in one big machine, but sadly, that day is not yet come. That day... is not yet come.

Funky Forest - The First Contact
I haven't finished watching it, yet (Done with side A, started side B). Been watching its short segments individually, while occupied with trying to figure out why the computer is so slow, lately, and other stuff.
My favorite scene so far is titled Buck Naked and the Panda (or something like that) which ends with the Hot Springs Girls in a pillow fight. But I can't find that on Youtube.
