Is the Fresh Bananas Man opening?

Are you sure you're allowed to type out "Ohio State University"ç without the definite article?

Listening to Bratmobile at an early age can lead to a distinct disinterest in sitting around and talking about the Wipers. Consider yourself warned.

We didn't actively discourage pink/purple/princesses, but we sure as hell didn't encourage it, either. Still, my daughter loves that stuff. I think it's mostly the influence of older kids and gifts from relatives. She also likes trains and legos, so that's all fine with me. We don't want her to feel limited in what…

Yikes these are terrifying. I"m glad to see Steely McBeam right up there. To paraphrase Al Burian, he has a look like he's sizing you up for an ass whooping and he likes his odds.

They had a contest, actually, and you can find the winner explaining her logic. The Steely part is self-evident, and the McBeam part has something to do with steel beams… or Irish people… or whiskey. It's not exactly clear.

Yeah, although their other stuff isn't just like Flagpole Sitta. Harvey Danger got roped in to the corporate world with that single/video, which meant that indie publications and college radio stations who generally avoided "commercial music" were loath to touch them. This was back in the days when it was possible to…

I just don’t think it’s similar enough to be plagiarized. Yeah, both the harpsichord and the bass play a similar figure on the blues scale, but although it sounds cool, it’s not something you would consider inventive playing or untrod ground. And that’s only half the riff. The bass alternates that figure with another…

I was in high school when this came out, and it was at least realistic-adjacent. I remember thinking, yeah, I know some kids like this.

That's a stretch. Sure, they used a similar two-chord progression on the verse, but that's about where it ends. Melody, instrumentation, chords on the chorus and bridge, and overall feel is completely different.

That game was pretty fun, though.

It was smart of Jerry to choose a convertible for that episode. Because it has no roof-ie.

I was going through my records the other day and found that one and 200mph. Forgot I had them, and I'm not exactly sure what to do with them.

I'd like to think that that episode so Seinfeld where Jerry and George drug a woman to play with her vintage toys is a subtle dig at Cosby, but probably not.

What, no Suburbia?

I suppose it depends on how she's arriving at the 10x figure. Maybe part of it is royalties.

I'm like 85% sure Gwyneth Paltrow is conducting an elaborate multi-year experiment in trolling.

What's going on with Lex Luthor? The whole "let's show a famously bald guy with lots of hair" would have been a lot more interesting if X-Men hadn't already done it.

I really like the Make Up, but I really really did not like their version. I think it's Svenonious's little phone call in the middle, or maybe it's because it takes nearly 8 damn minutes, which is pretty long for a band at their best when they keep it short and tight.

Nothing personal, but anyone who would combine "rain-soaked" with "Riverside County" clearly hasn't been through California lately.
