Michael Jackson

It's hard to believe the transformation Michael Jackson went through, but I guess that's what happens when you become famous at such an early age. I really like his early songs and videos but as he grew up i think his songs didn't improve. It was weird seeing how he looked in pictures and how his voice sounded. Its hard to think that voice could come out of that mouth.

Simon and Garfunkel

I read a book a little while ago and it was super weird, but it did bring up Simon and Garfunkel. I was curious so I looked them up and remembered my mom used to play them around our old house. I pretty much love every song because they sound super awesome together but my favorite is probably Cecilia.

Elvis Costello

So I heard you mention that we had listened to some of Elvis Costello's music and the name sounded really familiar. When I got home I looked up his songs and didn't recognize any of them and I just remembered my mom has one of his CD's in our CD rack. But I did YouTube some of his songs and the first one I clicked on was "Pump It Up". It freaked me out because I wasn't looking at the screen when the song started and I thought it was Lenny Kravitz and that i had clicked on the wrong video. Turns out they just sound a lot alike.

Little Sister - Queens of the Stone Age

This was the first Queens of the Stone Age song I ever heard. I definitely listened to it on repeat for like 3 weeks in 7th grade. I kind of forgot about them until i heard them on 101X one day and then I started listening to them again. Little Sister is still my favorite song. I remember hearing them at ACL this past year and they were sooo good. They sounded just like they do recorded.

Snobs

I'm getting tired of how judgmental everyone (specifically the people in the first row to the left) is about other people's music. Like I don't give a fuck if you don't like my music i'm not playing it for you and I don't need any comments on how it annoys you. I totally understand not liking Christian's music, it's ridiculous, but to write a post about how everyone's music was shit and bashing Christian is stupid. Someone's music shouldn't piss you off that much. Then again it is History of Rock and Roll, so i understand having an opinion on people's music but to let it make you that upset is ridiculous. Everyone has different taste's and to say it was shit is rude.

The Ruler - Kreayshawn

I know i'm probably one of the only people who like Kreayshawn, she's an acquired taste. She's a female rapper who is pretty monotone. I like the beats of her songs, and i actually like how monotone she is.

Elephant - Tame Impala

After I got the screen fixed on my phone the headphone plug wasn't working and neither was the auxiliary cord in my car, and I NEVER listen to the radio but I was forced to for about a week. When I listen to the radio I only listen to 101X. When they aren't playing commercials about the yellow rose's steak special they play some really awesome music. The only bad thing is they play the same songs a lot, and have recently thrown some Macklemore into the playlist. He has a good message, but awful music.

Anyway one day when I was listening to 101X this song came on and it sounded a LOT like The Beatles and I really liked it so I downloaded it right when I got home. I've been listening to it quite a bit and I still really like it. When I had to play my songs for the class I kind of figured the whole class would like it.

I haven't listened to the rest of Tame Impala's songs but I will, I'll let you know how the rest of them are.
