I got a gal pal named Keisha who recently pointed out to me that thugs are #1. Which is kind of true. Actually it's really true. Last night was spent helping her troll through Chicago's Craigslist for thug boyfriends who will treat a bitch good but isn't afraid to have a yelling match in public outside my local 7-11 (Did you know most 7-11's are safe zones? I just found this out the other day while buying cigs and a double gulp. Hells yeah!). Basically, she's looking for a hyper-man. And I'm jumping aboard this ship cause I'm done with nice boys who turn out to be stupid pieces of shit and mooch all my money and shit. Fuck that. Get a job, hipster queers with nautical tattoos.
But my girlfriend is onto something. I want a man in the streets and a quasi-freak in the sheets. I mean, at least take me to Olive Garden first or something, you know? Soup/salad/breadsticks for lunch and Red Lobster cheesy biscuits for dinner. Now that's my ideal date. As of right now, I can't even get a dude to bring me to McDonald's. FML.
Here are some songs I'd entice thugs with. And knowing my luck, they'd be like WTF is this shit?
FUNK ROCK:
Hot Chip - Sexual Healing
Mary Jane Girls - In My House
Missy Elliott - Pussycat
Gorillaz - Stylo (ft. Bobby Womack & Mos Def)
P.S.
This is how you accept an award. Gaga, your time is over.

Skeletons

Yeah Yeah Yeahs just released a video for their upcoming single Skeletons. The clip reminds me of the films of Guy Maddin or like a modern and less kooky version of the Smashing Pumpkins Tonight, Tonight. Love the spooky 1900's vibe! In short, Skeletons is a great looking video that totally fits the mood of the song...just what a music video should be.
Check out the video, A-Trak's remix of Heads Will Roll (one of the best remixes of 09) and to continue this week's covers theme, Harlem Shakes' version of Y Control!

Return the favor
You readers are fucking awesome. And you want to know why? Cause when I listened to "I WIsh I Was Him", all I heard was KATHLEEN. And then I went right back to listening to my crappy k-pop and cried myself to sleep. I guess my mind does not function that way. I can't really multi-task, as much as I try to. Anywho...
I love a good cover. Who doesn't? Sometimes they're straightforward and other times, bands turn these songs into something so unimaginable, it hurts to even think about. Being in a band, I've had MANY a dream about covers. And when I think about it, all I want to cover is "Love Will Never Do Without You" by Janet Jackson. "Surf City" by Jan & Dean runs a very close second. Ugh covers.
Role call:
Doveman - Let's Hear It For The Boy (Deniece Williams)
Bette Midler - Leader Of The Pack (The Shangri-Las)
This one gets crazy at the end, guys.
Glass Candy - Johnny, Are You Queer? (Josie Cotton)
Department Of Eagles - Too Little Too Late (Jojo)
Robyn - Since U Been Gone (Kelly Clarkson)
