Song of the day......... Michael Jackson with "Thriller"

Say what you will about the guy. The man can sing and dance and all that. This was a huge hit for him back in the '80s. It was arguably one of the best music videos ever made as well.

Song of the day.......... Talking Heads with "Houses in Motion"

What can you say about the Talking Heads? Great band. A little bizarre at times, but very infectious. The song of the day is a lesser known Heads song called "Houses In Motion." Great song, and as you can see a great live jam.

Song of the day..........God Lives Underwater with "The Rush Is Loud"

I never got into these guys when they originally came out. I remember a friend of the bass player in our band was really into them. Years later I am discovering them for the first time. I love bands that can mesh pop or hip hop sounds and rock. That's something that I think bands like Portishead and God Lives Underwater do exceptionally well. This song of the day is a good example of that.

Song of the day..........Tears for Fears with "Everybody Wants To Rule The World"

It seems like '80's music has often times received a bad wrap. There was some really good music coming out of that era though. Tears for Fears were one of those '80's bands that were putting out some really good tunes. This was one of their big hits, "Everybody Wants to Rule The World."

Song of the day....Nirvana with "You Know You're Right"

This was a Nirvana song that was released almost ten years after Kurt Cobain's death on a Nirvana compilation disc. Near the end of Kurt's life he was working on a project with Michael Stipe of R.E.M., and there are interviews with him where he said that Nirvana's sound was going to change in the coming albums. Nirvana's music is still very relevant today and it is unfortunate that we will never hear what could have been with Nirvana.

Song of the day..........They Might Be Giants with "Road Movie to Berlin"

Their stuff is always catchy and a bit quirky. Would like to catch them sometime when they come through Boulder/Denver. It seems like they tour still quite a lot.

Song of the day........Garbage with "Nobody Loves You"

This is one of my favorite songs from Garbage. I think this album usually gets overlooked when people talk about Garbage's music. It is unfortunate as there are some really great tracks on "Beautiful Garbage."
