My Shitty Taste
Thursday, August 12, 2010
Yes, I get "Ok Computer," I like Vampire Weekend and own The Postal Service album on vinyl (it does sound better). But there are plenty of reasons why you should never allow yourself to be persuaded by anything I write on this blog. With this occasional feature, I humbly submit to you the ever-growing list of reasons why my Rolling Stone subscription should be revoked.
-- I prefer the studio version of "Hotel California" to the "Hell Freezes Over" version.
-- I saw Tommy Tutone in concert. Last year.
-- The album Liz Phair made with Avril Lavine's songwriters: Awesome.
-- "Tik Tok" was my favorite song of 2009.
-- I have downloaded two songs because they were on "Glee." I have downloaded five songs because they were on "Degrassi."
-- I have asked a DJ to play "The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald" on the radio.
-- As a DJ, I have played "The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald" on the radio.
-- I love "We Didn't Start the Fire."
-- Yes is a better band than Pink Floyd.
-- I can't get into "The National."
-- I have both "Convoy" and it's sequel song on my iPhone.
-- I own no fewer than 15 songs about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
-- "Toxic" was my favorite Britney Spears song. That was before she released "3."
-- I loved Jason Mraz's first album. I was disappointed by his second album. I was horrified by his third album.
-- As I write this, I am listening to "The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald."

if it makes you feel any better:
- I own a CD that consists of nothing but various mixes of the theme from 'Mortal Kombat'. Not the game - the movie.
- I love 'Owner of a Lonely Heart' and prefer the Letters to Cleo cover of 'I Want You to Want Me'.
