Give It a Kick

It's Christmas Eve, and I still haven't written this. I'll just get it over with.

I'm just an Amazon fanboy who enjoys indie music. And to be honest, this song has gotten me through about three editions of University Press.

From Dr. Dog's album released in February, Be The Void, "Do The Trick."

My heart, it ain't running right

Why don't you give it a kick?

Will you be my handyman?

Will you do the trick?

No Defences

As someone with no extra money for music, I get most of mine of Amazon. They offer a great selection of free MP3s, which I take advantage of because most songs are actually great and because I do business on their. Not only do I buy, but I also sell. Anyone need a Dell flat-screen monitor? No? Okay. :(

This song featured is actually song by Alexander Ebert, the lead singer for Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, featured earlier this year on The Archenemy. I was also suprised that this guy had earlier released music with another that disbanded and that he also solos from time-to-time. In this song, he teamed up with RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan, which I thought was made up of Asian-Americans. The name got me... does that make a stereotypist? I don't think so... is that even a word?

From Mr. Ebert's 2011 début solo album Alexander, "Truth."

And when the darkness come, let it inside you
Your darkness is shining
My darkness is shining
Have faith in myself
Truth
