Bucks County, PA rabble-rousers Illinois have just released their album, The Adventures of Kid Catastrophe. For six months, the band pounded the virtual pavement all across the interweb, releasing a 3-song EP anc video chapter per month from November ‘08 – April ‘09. Then a sprawling 20-song release hit shelves on June 9th.
PM Dawn / Set Adrift On Memory Bliss
This reminds me of Catholic School dances back in sixth grade. Roller skating parties, reebok pumps or blacktops. Skidz. Shaving lines into my hair. Gold chains. The good ol’ days. Mmmm.
Lisa Loeb / Stay
You say, I only hear what I want to. I don’t listen hard, don’t pay attention to the distance that yer runnin’ to anyone, anywhere. I don’t understand if you really care, I’m only hearing negatives. No, no, no noooooo so. I turn the radio on, I turn the radio up, and this woman was singin’ my song.
Paula Abdul / Forever Your Girl
This song curses me forever. The first time I got dumped, this came on. I sat there, staring at the wall. Still to this day, every time I hear it I suck my thumb and wonder what happened to that girl. Though I heard she got hit by a truck. No, I was not driving it.
MC Hammer / Pumps And A Bump
I saw the video for this and stared in amazement. Damn right he was the Hammer. How do you not break into giggles whilst shooting that video with that thing flying around? Geez. I like da girls wit the pumps n’ a bumps, but sheeeet, he must like ‘em a hell of a lot more.
Carly Simon / Nobody Does It Better
I was flipping through my iPod and wondered what my most played song was. This totally outnumbered any other song by thousands. This song gets me fired up immensely! It is impossible for me not to scream along every time it’s on. I’m like Roger Rabbit when he hears ’shave and a haircut’. Too biggggggggggg!
Randy Newman / Memo To My Sun
Randy always has a way of ‘takin’ me there’, whether it be in a closet nude and crying, or confessing my deepest secrets to a complete stranger. I just love everything he is about. I’m sorry, but I wish he was my dad
The Oneders / That Thing You Do
What else do I need to say? if you’ve seen this movie, you’ve spent just as much time as me humming it and rewinding it to memorize all the lyrics. Ladies and gentlemen, the oh-knee-ders.
DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince / Let’s Get Busy Baby
This song still makes me randy! I highly recommend to all. This record was my childhood.
