So I haven't been able to really get online as of the past handful of days, mainly because the weather's been brutal [hello? 28 degrees at 5 A.M.!?], which has in turn gotten me sick. Once again, I've been rendered voiceless. And it freckin' sucks. I hate it, big time. So, my apologies on being miserably slack on the blog lately. I am going to do my best to make it up, God willing the weather improves as does my health.
In the meantime, here's some tuneage--what I've been listening to as of lately. The Songs [yes, PLURAL this time] of the Week.
I was going to spotlight them in this week's Thursday Tradition but, falling ill, that wasn't going to happen. Next chance I have a Thursday Tradition they will definitely get their glow. In the meantime, here's one of my faves that I've been listening to from these guys.
"I Will Not Take These Things For Granted" - Toad the Wet Sprocket
My friend Ry got me addicted to this song last night. I haven't really stopped listening to it... yet. Goin' back about 12 years for this brilliant tune.
"Little Wonder" - David Bowie
I plan on doing a Thursday Tradition featuring them in the future, hopefully soon. Though maybe I'll wait until April--for the two-year anniversary of seeing these guys live. They're a fantastic group, nice sort of fellows too.
"Perpetual" - VNV Nation
At least 10 years ago this group kinda stole my heart. I miss this group. A lot. They're kinda on hiatus but, I've just rediscovered them earlier this week. They're next up in line on the Thursday Tradition spotlight, following Toad the Wet Sprocket.
"Made to Last" - Semisonic
And finally, glancing back quickly into the previous Thursday Tradition spotlight, the Cocteau Twins--this being from the '81 album Garlands, it's the first track on it. I actually got to listen to it some this week and, it's not bad really. Me liketh.
"Blood Bitch" - The Cocteau Twins
Enjoy the tuneage. And think kindly of me--I still can't quite talk for beans. Damn.
Until the next round...
