Channeling 406 – This Is IU

By On September 13, 2011 · Leave a Comment · In Music, Videos

Pip sent me this video earlier today… I clicked and had absolutely no idea what to expect.  I quite literally got goose bumps.  THIS video is the essence the college experience at Indiana.  These guys (who apparently have some fame in the Hoosier state) don’t know it, but they’ve completely channeled the 406 Northlane experience.

I’m not a huge fan of Rihanna but I have to once again give huge props to my wife for turning me on to an awesome song.  Talk about a party anthem!  Great lyrics and just an all around fun song!

Lyrics That Touch – Firework By Katie Perry

By On July 20, 2011 · 1 Comment · In Music, Videos

If you’re like me you heard this song WAY too often over the 4th of July weekend this past year.  For me it started off as a catchy tune that I got sick of.  I had on the iPod shuffle this morning and it came on.  I don’t know that I’ve ever really listened to [...]

You Really Can’t Go Wrong With Some Kenny Loggins

By On March 1, 2011 · 1 Comment · In Commentary, Music, Videos

I’ve said it time and time again… I’m a geek. 80′s movies are my wheelhouse ranging anywhere from science fiction to action movies to horror. Many times these movies come complete with some cheesy soundtrack and when we’re talking soundtracks no one does it better than the man… Kenny Loggins.

I’m Alright – [...]

Koko & Cee Lo

So I was watching the Grammy Awards this evening a couple of days late wondering who the hell everyone was.  I understand that I’m getting a bit older and I’ve never been all that “up” on pop music.  However, I saw a dude that reminded me of something from my past…something that I’d tried to [...]

Let The Lyrics Speak To You

By On July 23, 2010 · 1 Comment · In Music, The Tops

I’m a huge fan of lyrical music.  Sure a good beat and melody can get you moving on the dance floor, but for a song to truly “touch” me it’s got to have great lyrics.  I’m also something of a romantic and a family man as you’ll see from my choices.  There are quite certainly [...]

Jackopierce – Mile High – Live From Soiled Dove In Denver

By On July 19, 2010 · Leave a Comment · In Music

A while back, I reviewed a live album by one of my favorite bands Jackopierce.  I don’t buy a ton of music these days (an album here, a song there) but when I find a band that I enjoy I pretty much get everything that’s available by them.  I absolutely LOVE live music, [...]

Talk About Some Great Lyrics

I’m not a big country music fan but I was driving a couple of years back on a business trip with nothing else to listen to.  I heard this song and when I got back to the hotel immediately purchased it from iTunes.  I had the iPod on shuffle this evening and ran across it [...]

Jackopierce Live From Atlanta

For years, one of my favorite bands has been Jackopierce.  I started listening to them in high school and have been enjoying their music ever since.  For those of you that don’t know, Jackopierce is made up of Jack O’Neil and Cary Pierce.  The band was formed in 1988 while they both attended college in [...]
