"We were waiting for an accident...!"

As I have no money, I'm always in the mood for an MP3 sampler, usually from Amazon or etc. Well, I got this gem during the last few months of 2010, during a windy, cold day in December. Ironically, this song is what got me through many troubles and also got me through my first comic drawn on my other blog. Great stuff, huh?

Enjoy this third post in the new year with
The Henry Clay People's "Slow Burn."

Don't try to dig what we say...!

Now to introduce this new year, let's start off with a little WHO. It was always seen that The Who sometimes destroyed their equipment after playing a show and this was probably the one most have seen. While playing on  The Smother Brothers Comedy in 1967, Keith Moon (the drummer) bribed a stagehand to pack more-than-necessary explosives into his drum kit.

When the performance ended, he kicked the drum kit off the stage, which then exploded, right beside Pete Townshend, which would ultimately lead to him developing tinnitus that would affect him for the rest of his life.

From their 1967 performance on The Smother Brothers Comedy Hour,
The Who with "My Generation."

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from The Archenemy.

« Ennemi juré lundi » (Archenemy Mondays!)

On this early Monday morning, we travel to France for our music choice.

 In the '60s, France Gall was a huge pop star, and a collaboration with singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg, made her widely known in her home country, France.

Soon after participating in the 1965 Eurovision Song Contest with "Poupée de Cire, Poupée de Son," her fame grew exponentially and she toured Europe that summer. The late sixties would soon pose a challenge for young Gall, whose songs (written by Gainsbourg) contained double-meanings and after singing "Les Sucettes," cut off her ties with Gainsbourg after learning the song's lyrics referred to oral sex.

For your enjoyment, is "Poupée de Cire, Poupée de Son," "Les Sucettes," "Toi Que Je Voux," written by Serge Gainsbourg (except for "Toi... Voux" written by David Whitaker), sung by France Gall.

Teen Edge

This morning, I was on the IHeartRadio app scanning around when I heard this song on a local alternative rock station. Instead of saying "XBOX, scan!" I stayed and listened to it, much to the chagrin of my brother.

The second song was the same as above... although I enjoyed it a bit more than the first.

For today's teen edge, Wheatus' "Teenage Dirtbag" and Harvey Danger's "Flagpole Sitta."
You really got to love the late '90s and early 2000s.
