New Wave Song Of The Day: I Want Candy by Bow wow wow

BOW WOW WOW YIPPIE YO YIPPIE YAY.


And a clip from one of my favorite movies in the world, Marie Antoinette, that makes the song better.


Nice To Kids?

recently I took a second job.

It's at a home daycare with my mom and a lady that runs it. There's only about 9 kids that go there and it's literally like a school. There's a baby named Sarah who I formed a bond with, It's amazing.

When I think about it, I was a kid once, and when people were nice to me, I remembered them for being so nice to me, but the mean ones are the ones that lowered my self esteem

When I got to my other job, I was actually nice to the kids, they didn't piss me off or anything, it's like they don't have a care in the world. I was never like that.

New Wave Song(s) of the day: double dosage

I'm pretty sick, so yesterday when I came home from work I immedietly doped myself up on benadryl and cough medicine and completely forgot to post a new wave/ early 80's song. So here's two, one for yesterday and one for today.

1) I Ran (So Far Away) by Flock Of Seagulls


This next one is Tainted Love by Soft Cell


NOTE: of course this isn't the original video, but the sound quality was so shit that it was a joke.

New Wave Song Of The Day: Separate Ways By Journey

I heard this on Tron:Legacy and thought that the intro was to-die-for so I had to include it in New Wave/Early 80's week.

New Wave Week.



This week I will be posting a New Wave song every day.
< note: sometimes I have no differentiation on the genre 'New wave' since I refer to most early 80's music with synthesizers and wailing vocals as new wave>

Next week will be 90's house.

Today's Song: Sweet Dreams by The Eurythmics




People confuse the title with "sweet dreams are made of these" instead of "sweet dreams are made of this"...I heard it was because of Annie Lennox's strong accent or something. I don't know I've always loved this song and the fact that it was playing on Tron Legacy made it better.
