Please don’t judge my musical tastes
It’s the holiday weekend, and I really don’t feel like putting in a lot of thought to this, so here’s Lindsey Stirling playing the theme to Halo.
We’re delving back to the 1980s for this lost gem from Corey Hart.
Everyone grab your shades, because we’re wearing our sunglasses at night.
Let’s take a little musical journey, one that’s a little bit personal. Granted, I might not remember every concert I’ve seen, but I have been to a few. So, lets start with the earliest one I remember
Today we pick a song that matches my mood of late.
I did not necessarily say that mood was a happy one.
It was a bit of a dilemma. Do I pick a song that is oriented towards comics since this is Free Comic Book Day? Or, do I pick a song that is Star Wars in theme, since it is May the Fourth (be with you… sound it out).
I decided on this.
and this.
Enjoy!
Recently, I did a post listing five videos that I thought were a bit below par for the songs they were being matched with.
Well, this week, I’m heading back to the 1980s for a song that is just as sub par as the video it’s matched with.
The wonder of music is that the experience often goes beyond the auditory. Listeners often will envision the song they are listening to in their own way. Even with the creation of the music video, that experience still stands, though now, what we envision for a song may be drasticly different from what some random director decided what visuals should go with the song.
And, sadly, there are some great songs that are sidled with videos that are, well, crap.
Something a little different as we take a breather from this past week.
As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, I decided to take a look back at some of the obscure Doctor moments.
Many times throughout the years, Doctor Who played a part in Children in Need, aired on the BBC to collect donations for, well, children in need. This particular episode stands out for Doctor Who fans because, well, just watch as the new meets the old.
This week, we are revisiting a band that I have had in heavy iTunes rotation since I stumbled across them on Youtube.com. I would definitely consider selection a power ballad.

Have you ever noticed that Queen‘s “We Are The Champions” is played for every winning sports team on television, movies, even in the stadiums? It is used so much that it is becoming cliche to hear the song whenever anyone ever wins the big game.
Except, there really is not another song about winning that even comes close to working as well as this one. So, it looks like we really have to accept the cliche.
