Song of the day.............Tone-Loc with "Wild Thing"

Let's keep it rolling today with another R&B/Pop song from the '80's - '90's. I just love the riff in this. He could be talking about how bad Rock music is, and I would be oblivious to it. That riff and that drum line is damn catchy.......Check out Tone-Loc with "Wild Thing."

Song of the day.........Boyz II Men with "On Bended Knee"

Everybody that knows me knows that I'm a Rock guy to my core, but in the early '90's and at some times since then I've been known to dabble in listening to Pop and R&B. One of my favorite R&B groups from the '90's was Boyz II Men. I just loved the harmonies that they had going, and all of their stuff was so catchy. I still to this day like some of their hits including this one. Check out "On Bended Knee."

Song of the day..........Suicide Machines with "Numbers"

Today's song is the shortest song of the day so far clocking in just under a minute.......so my description will be short as well. I really don't like much of their material. It's just too much screaming in my opinion. Here is the Suicide Machines with "Numbers."

Song of the day..........Train with "Hey, Soul Sister"

In the last ten years or so there has been a resurgence of music created in which a Ukulele was the prominent instrument. Eddie Vedder did a solo album, where the Uke was used in virtually every track. My friend and his wife made a Christmas greeting video that they sent out to friends and family that had a Uke in it. Our local music stores here have probably 2 Ukes for every guitar that they are currently selling. It's kind of crazy.

One of the biggest hits in recent years with a Uke involved was Train's "Hey, Soul Sister," which ended up being one of the biggest singles of their career. This video is part of a TV series called Live from Daryl's House, which features Daryl Hall. Check out "Hey, Soul Sister."

Song of the day...........Cage the Elephant with "Cigarette Daydreams"

Cage the Elephant has been around since the mid 2000's and received a good amount of radio air play with their single "Ain't No Rest For The Wicked" in the last couple of years. Today's song is from the band's 2013 album "Melophobia." It's got an interesting sound to it and I really dig it. A pretty decent acoustic rock song from these guys. Check out "Cigarette Daydreams" from Cage the Elephant....

Song of the day.........Black Rebel Motorcycle Club with "Lien On Your Dreams"

Today's song of the day is from the band Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Way, way back in the day I saw these guys at this little club in Denver called the Lion's Lair. A great venue to see such a great Rock band. Anyways, today's song of the day is from their "Baby 81" album, and the track is called "Lien On Your Dreams."

The title alone, and lyrics on their own make this a great song. Then though BRMC has added some incredible music as the backdrop for these lyrics and all together makes this a great song. Just the title "Lien on Your Dreams" can mean so many things......As a child we are all taught that dreams are endless, boundless things, and to think that their might be a lien on our dreams is an interesting perspective. I think everyone can kind of relate to that on some level at some point in your life.

Love the guitars on this too........That driving bass line, and those guitars coming in during the verse with pulsing chords just make this one of my favorites.....so check out "Lien On Your Dreams."

Song of the day...........Depeche Mode with "In Your Room"

I really started to like Depeche Mode after they released the "Songs of Faith and Devotion" album. It came out at about the time that I was really watching an absurd amount of MTV, and the videos that they released were just like videos that nobody else was doing. I don't honestly remember the video for this track, but I remember really liking this song from the album. It was after buying this album that I started to look more at some of their back catalog.

This is just an amazing track from the "Songs of Faith and Devotion" album. Check out "In Your Room."
