Song of the day.........Jimmy Eat World with "A Sunday"

This is one of those bands that I've kind of been on the fence about. Some of their material that hasn't been overplayed on the radio is actually really good. Case in point this track. Heard it for the first time this weekend and really thought it was well done. A nice sounding track. Check it out......

Song of the day.........Violent Femmes with "Color Me Once"

Definitely in my top five Violent Femmes songs. I love the bass line in this. The bass part in this might be my favorite bass part in a song honestly. It just drives this song so well, and it gives it such a great feel. Really good song that was originally featured on "The Crow" movie soundtrack. It's worth a listen. Especially for all of you bass players out there.

Song of the day............U2 with "Sunday Bloody Sunday"

Rolling Stone magazine called the live performance of this song from a concert at Red Rocks in 1983 one of the "50 Moments that Changed the History of Rock 'n' Roll." It was an incredible moment for U2, and was another step in the bands continued success. "Sunday Bloody Sunday" is just a song that everyone knows is U2. It's one of their classic hits. Enjoy this video from June 5th, 1983 of U2 performing "Sunday Bloody Sunday" live from Red Rocks.......

Song of the day.........Audioslave with "Gasoline"

Audioslave.........four amazing musicians. That's pretty much all you can say. I loved Rage......loved Soundgarden, and Chris Cornell joining the remaining musicians from Rage was epic. So many great songs on this first self-titled album. One of them is this track......"Gasoline."

Song of the day...........Blur with "Song 2"

Blur is one of my favorite bands. I became interested in them kind of late in their career after the success of "Song 2." That led me to pick up some of their first few albums, which are epic. 1992's "Modern Life is Rubbish" is still one of my favorite albums of all time. This song kind of got it all started for me with this band. I've always felt that Damon Albarn is an absolute genius. From his work with Blur to his work with Gorillaz he is just amazing. Check out "Song 2" so that you have it stuck in your head all weekend.......

Song of the day..........Young MC with "Bust A Move"

Before the Grunge scene in Seattle broke in the early '90's I was a huge fan of the Dance music at the time. I remember listening to C&C Music Factory, Paula Abdul, Janet Jackson, Bel Biv Devoe, Boyz II Men, and this guy Young MC. This was probably one of the top ten dance songs of the late '80's early '90's. The track also features Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers on bass, and you can see him in a couple of clips in this video. I listened to KS 104 all the time in the early '90's and this track was played almost on an hourly basis. Check it out........

Song of the day.........George Winston with "Carol Of The Bells"

With temperatures in the '90's today, Christmas is probably the last thing on anyone's mind. I thought today though we would look at one of my favorite Christmas songs, and try to remember when it was '40 degrees out. I have always loved this Christmas song, and George Winston's arrangement of this is just beautiful. Check it out!

Song of the day.........Dave Matthews Band with "#27"

How about a little jam by Dave Matthews Band for your song of the day today?

Song of the day...........The New Cars with "Good Times Roll"

One of the best revised lineup bands that I've ever heard is The New Cars. Most bands that are resurrected with a new lineup never live up to the original. Especially when you replace a lead singer. That usually never works. I honestly can't even comprehend a Stone Temple Pilots, for instance, with vocals from the guy from Linkin Park. I can't see how that can work. I guess Van Halen may be the ultimate successful band that has changed lead singers and still maintained their success. Not far behind them though should be these guys. Todd Rundgren steps in and makes these songs sound like they are supposed to sound. The guy obviously knows his stuff. Check out this version of "Good Times Roll."

Song of the day.........Supergrass with "In It For the Money"

This is another one of those bands that I've only heard a few tracks from, but can tell that they are the real deal. Supergrass has a great sound, and this song is one of my favorites that I've heard from them. Just great. A very short song, clocking in at just over 2 minutes, but it packs a punch in those 2 minutes. Check it out.....

Song of the day.........Twisted Sister with "We're Not Gonna Take It"

Why Twisted Sister........I say why not Twisted Sister? That's pretty much all I've got for this song of the day honestly.

Song of the day......... Eve 6 with "Inside Out"

I remember hearing this song all the time in High School. It was a bit overplayed........ These guys had some good tracks though. I remember seeing them at the Fillmore in Denver a few years ago, and they played a great show........

Song of the day........Brad with "Yes, You Are"

I can't say enough about this band "Brad." Just a great band. Today's track is off of their album "Welcome To Discovery Park," which is my favorite album by Brad. "Yes, You Are" is one of the albums closing tracks, and with good reason. It just starts out as this mellow piano ballad, and gradually builds with a guitar solo driven, all out rocking outro. Just another great track from these guys.
