Music Monday: a little strange
Music Monday: White Christmas
It’s about snow.
Seriously though, this is from one of the Christmas albums I grew up with. On an actual LP. Played on a portable stereo in my room.
Music Monday: for Thanksgiving.
Music Monday: I got nothin.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is a classic bit of TV. By modern standards, it’s about as racist as you can get. If you are offended by people playing music in gorilla suits, you should skip this one. Please don’t say I didn’t warn you.
In Closing: political autopsy; gambling; fatal weight.

Music Monday: Changes Everything (a Halloween lack of remix)
Dance with it girl
On the surface, this is a sweet song about a girl who doesn’t have a bunch of money, but she still dresses like it’s date night to dance with her honey to songs on the radio.
But I seriously misheard the lyrics. And it makes sense this way….
Dat’s a dead girl
She was killed in a night club shooting (“Badda bang bang”), but her ghost keeps showing up at the night club to dance (“I can see your energy”). She doesn’t need money because ghosts don’t pay cover charges or buy drinks. The guy who was with her that night still shows up at the club sometimes because he misses her so (“worth more than diamonds, more than gold”).
Happy Halloween (and Nevada Day).
Music Monday: More Songs from a Bizarre Childhood

Music Monday: a nice Pinot Noir
Actually, that’s the name of the band.
In Closing: honor guard; shot.
Music Monday: Sad Sun
So, if she has a pocketful of sunshine, why does she sound so sad about it?
