The Silvertones - True confession (live)

these are the kind of dudes i want to hang out with

Diane Lane - Nowhere Fast

breathtaking

Television Personalities live bootleg

if you are under 30 you probably won't understand this clip yet. if you are over 30 or under and you hang on thru the 5 minutes and ten seconds it really is the only tvp's you need. however if you ever now or in the future or even the past find yourself falling asleep with a beer on your chest you may want to check dan treacy's back catalog.

THE PARACHUTE MEN - SOMETIMES IN VAIN

in 1988 this was my favorite song totally via andy bisconti from an nme comp i loved this song so much. total soundtrack to summer stage for me. this is the sound i hear when i think of those great times.

Elton John - Bitter Fingers

towards the end of my la trip i was working on drawings while justin was at work and he doesnt have much vinyl so i just played a warsaw bootleg, the first bikini kill, two songs off mott the hoople and this elton john song over and over. i think i played bitter fingers about 25 times in a row at one point. this is one of my favs of his lesser known songs along with the cage and grimsby. the hook with the piano and the guitar at the end are so great. also what a great line, 'its hard to write a song with bitter fingers . . .' words from and for the wise.

kustom kar kommandos

the greatest music video ever made. followed i believe by diana ross 'upside down', michael jackson 'billie jean' , the bangles 'going down to liverpool' and the happy mondays 'wrote for luck' the version with the kids in it. that's my top 5.

New Order - Touched By The Hand Of God

last nite hanging with chris and constance somehow a tangent went from c thomas howell to finding sarah jessica parker cute in only square pegs or la story to talk concerning kathryn bigelow and discovering this great new order video she directed. oh also switching the channel between cops and the lost boys and watching roger ebert review battlefield earth and pondering the demise of barry pepper's acting career.

Field Mice cover, another early Saint Etienne track like "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" that features a vocalist other than Sarah Cracknell, this time Donna Savage 7. from Waris Hussein's film Melody the only song on the soundtrack other than "Teach Your Children by CSNY that isn't by the Bee Gees 8. live television performance from the very cute Kiki Dee 14. seven inch version, one of my favorite songs the spring and summer of 1994 throughout my freshman year in college. when the record finally came out they had to drop the Ronette's sample and the recording never worked as well as this version 15. Wings cover live in Germany, I saw Daniel Johnston sing this at the Khyber same tour, same brilliance 16. Buddy Holly cover, Paul McCartney owns the rights to Buddy Holly's music, Michael Jackson's estate owns the rights to Macca's music 18. Brenda Hollaway cover 19. i used to talk shit about Alicia Keys then i really fell for this tune, play this really really loud 20. probably the ideal Bubbles Inc. tune here, Boy Meets Girl songwriting duo of George Merrill and Shannon Rubicam they wrote "How Will I Know", "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" and "Waiting For A Star To Fall" for Whitney Houston. she had great success with the first two and then turned down the third! what was she thinking?! so they made this great version themselves and had a hit.

Enjoy The Silence (HQ) - Depeche Mode - Original Video (WTC Tribute !!!)

thinking of this so long ago when i took the early morning off from work so i could vote for mark green and then shortly after on the bus enroute to dumbo as the police and fire trucks flew by us and after we passed the naval yard cell phone rumors came horribly true. i will always love nyc.

On this first day of September I thought I'd post these mixes of the songs I enjoyed most this summer. If you regularly exchange emails with me you will remember the agony I endured when I realized one of my favorite songs on the radio was in fact a Black Eyed Peas song. However I shouldn't have been surprised, this was the most top 40 summer for me since 1997 when both 'MMMbop' by Hanson and 'Say You Will Be There' by the Spice Girls were among my favorite songs. In a way the combo of Lily Allen, Taylor Swift, Pink, and Miley Cyrus could perhaps be this summer's Spice Girls for me, of course the Belle Stars were in fact an inspiration for the Spice Girls, and Taylor Hanson makes an appearance as the lead singer of the super group Tinted Windows. This summer I went to see Tinted Windows and throughly enjoyed it. The concert was mobbed with grown up Hanson fans and I went by myself yet luckily spied a few friends in the audience who were there to support the newly DFA signed and hyped band from Philadelphia, Free Energy. Also don't be afraid of the Philadelphia born Pink she is one of the best to come out of this landmark girl pop era. Her song 'Please Don't Leave Me' sounds like she is fronting New Order and is better than anything they had on their disappointing 'final' album 'Waiting for the Sirens' Call'. If I could I would love to produce a record of Pink covering Shocking Blue classics, I feel she not only could be up to the task but is the only contemporary vocalist that could approach the levels of Mariska Veres' greatness.

My favorite things this past summer do include: Fonthill, Anissa Mack's show at Small A Projects, random encounters in NYC with friends near and far, walking through the park to visit the Met and the Whitney, Brooke Shields remembering the King of Pop, rapping with the Michael Jackson T shirt vendor on Allegheny Avenue in Kenzo, watching the Goonies in the afternoon, Karen Kilimnik saying she liked my drawing, karaoke at Winnie's, sharing a wall with Andy Warhol, Irene Molloy singing Ave Maria during my beloved grandmom's funeral at Saint Phil's followed by my father's phenomenal eulogy, leading the fourth of July parade in Lansdowne, various birthday parties, Joe Biden talking about Teddy, followed days later by the dusk burial at Arlington, getting directions from Will Oldham's mother Joanne, visiting Knoebel's Grove with Mark and Gretchen, putting together a feast in Austin, Barton Springs, and waiting for the bats to come out with Kate, taking it easy at Harry's Roadhouse and befriending a museum employee in Sante Fe via Alexander Girard, waiting out the rain at Anthony's Cafe in Fishtown, Andrea Fraser at Fredrick Petzel/Dorthoy Iannone at Anton Kern and the New Museum, Mocha Dick at the Fabric Workshop, Cezanne and Beyond at the PMA, Jack Rose's pizza, Clubb O, Club 650, le Basket onward - laughing, dancing, talking shit and taking names. In addition to all of this are the following songs that made me really happy this summer:
