More love for Control. Also Last Days gets some respect for being a quiet meditation on a story that could have been way over-sensationalized.

To me, Jessie J seemed to come from the same British creature factory as Duffy.

I immediately assumed from the first four words of the title of this news piece that it was one of the Oasis Gallaghers, but then the whole watermelon part really blew that out of the water.

If we're talking first pop/rock song
…then I have to skip over any Christian hymns I may have been weirdly attached to as a little kid, and also a lot of John Williams' Spielberg movie soundtrack work, which I was oddly hooked on from a young age. So then I'll go with a tie between Tears for Fears "Everybody Wants to…

I'm almost ashamed to say the Sherman finally confronting Cooper scene was "cathartic," since that means I'm way too emotionally involved in a goddamn TV show than I should be. But yeah, it was. I'd been waiting and hoping a long time for that chewing out. That's the kind of come to Jesus talk I wanted Jim to have…

I thought this finale would have been near perfect if it wasn't for that one cop always checking up on the crack whore storyline. That seemed to come in out of nowhere, whereas the rest of the storylines were wrapping up threads that had been established earlier in the season.

I've always thought Spiritualized's entire discography basically boils down to Suicide's "Cheree" on endless loop. And I also mean that in a good way.

Didn't No Age recently play a set of Husker Du songs with Bob Mould?

So who should be the band playing Beat Happening? Wye Oak, which seems like a possibility, is already playing someone else. Yo La Tengo? Avey Tare and Kria Brekken?

How am I the first one yet to say "go back to the Spacemen 3 albums?" I thought we were all super cool in here, dudes.

Dude drummed on some early Eno albums. It's a close battle between the coolness of that and the dullness of his later pop stuff, but in the end I'm going with anyone associated with early Eno albums having at least a little residual cool to the end.

Sounds Familiar
Every time I get randy, my wife runs me around the block until things, um, die down. Ah, marriage!

Yours smell like honey…uh!

Are you actually claiming you DON'T want some more Cameo-style funk foolishness a la "Highly Suspicious?"

I don't know about the Dark Knight
But my peen is definitely rising when I look at that pic!

Oof, those Westboro creeps or horrible. If the military just sent some army members with guns to take them out at the next military funeral they show up at, would anyone really have any concerns with that?

With Wendy Williams and Kirstie Alley clomping around the stage, there sure ought to be a lot of sound and fury.

I too thought Silverman was the one getting mocked. Maybe because I watched that recent SNL Backstage special, and it had me wondering if maybe Fey had some old scores to settle with Silverman from when both were on the show (Silverman as a performer, Fey as a writer, or is that timeline off and they never actually…

My Pick
Since I'm way late to this game, rather than rack my brain for some perfect selection, I'll just go with the gorgeous song that's in heavy, heavy rotation for me right now: "Baby" by Warpaint.

Parker/Spitzer always sounded like a porn actor's jokey name anyhoo.
