Music Find...

Sometimes I feel that i have a keen ear for something that will get big. I have done it for a few different bands, one of which was Linkin Park (yeah, it was quite a while ago), Jack Johnson (yeah, I listened to him way before he became so big), Coldplay (I knew when I heard "yellow" I should expect good things) and there have been others that I have thought this about and it came true. Although I'm sure there have been misses plenty of times too. But I wanted to share with you a new find that I think has the potential to be kind of big. Not Huge, but at least radio regular material on at least one station. The Band is Passion Pit. I just heard about them last week. I heard their song online and i was like, "hey this is really good" then 2 days later I saw them in my new Paste magazine. Then I saw them again on something else. So obviously my ear was right. They are catching on. (I don't mean because I like them they are going to catch on. I'm not arrogant. Just saying its interesting that several other people are thinking the same thing) So anyway, I will let you listen now and see if you like them as much as I do. Hope you enjoy. And now that it is down in writing, I can say I called this one if they do get big.

White Man - Awesome new song!

This may be the best Christian song written... ever. Because it isn't "...Christian" if that makes sense. Its... God. And not cheezy, k-love, sing about something churchy, feel like i'm a christian because i listen to this kind of music, kind of God song. But speaks the truth, and is fun. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. The video is kind of fun to watch too. I would call it... "cute". (and I realize i used a lot of ... ...'s)

For Abby - Awesome video

I saw this video and immediately thought of Abby. Its a really cool video to watch. Would have been even cooler to see in person. But I think you will all like it. Hopefully you haven't already seen it.

Awesome video

So I found out about this last night and keep watching it and laughing. I guess it just happened monday. Turn up your speakers so you can hear the guy on the right. 

My Favorite part is... "Gone..."

Also, I have been asked to put the lyrics from my song down so here ya go if you wanted to see them...

I’m staring at the muffintop

Its like a bakery cause its getting hot

The whole club moves when that body drops

I love to watch it shake girl please don’t stop

It happened from the moment that our eyes were locked

The way you stuck out shows you eat a lot

You want a rounded girl that’s what  I got

With my, my my muffintop

 

Was your daddy a baker cause you got nice buns, But that other pastry is what gets me hun

Put some sprinkles on it cause, ding it’s done, When I get you in that club we’ll be having some fun

I love your tight jeans and that belly shirt, I see you look'n at me girl your such a flirt

But everytime you dance girl it looks like work,  cause You’re knocking over tables everytime you twirk

 

Girl I really dig your intertube, I love to watch it shake love to watch it move

I am mesmerized when you start to groove, now everytime I see a muffin I get in the mood

When you shake it hard girl I hear a clap, but that’s just from your rolls slapping on your back

What is sticking out, is that your butt or your back?, those aren’t just love handles, it’s a love attack!

 

You got a hang over and you don’t even drink

Girls sweatin so much that your starting to stink

You’re not dancing hard enough to cause that much sweat

But everytime you shake your head you’re making me wet

I see you bend over try and touch your toes

Everytime you do that your butt crack’s exposed

You’re wearing size two’s you should be wearing size twelves

But let me sit my cup on your built  in shelves.

MuffinTop...

Ok, so this will require a bit of explaining. Some of you know the story. At our Easter Sunday gathering at Aunt Cindy's we were sitting around talking. I have no idea what we were talking about, but Aunt Cindy brought up the term Muffintop. Referring not to a muffin, but to a girl who wears jeans that are too tight, so her belly hangs over. I found this hillarious that Cindy not only knew what it was, but that she brought it up. And I said I would write a song about it. So I did. I was bored this afternoon and decided I would make a funny song about it. I made a purevolume website so all can listen to it. Remember, it took me all of an hour, maybe an hour and a half to write a record. And its just meant to be funny. So no musical judgements. Hope you find it as funny as I do.

PS. This is not exactly the kind of music I envisioned myself making for you guys to listen to. But oh well.

Sweet Video

I just saw this music video and i have to say its is one of the coolest videos I think I have ever seen. I am very impressed. It had to take a lot of work by somebody. I had never heard of the band, but its a pretty good song too. Here is Winter Gloves: "Let Me Drive"
