NAME THAT TUNE!
"You're in your living grave, fuck those neon lights. That's just how I behave riding my bike." Had an extraordinarily awesome bike ride through PTown with Zach last nite which involved weaving quickly in and out of tourists who love to jump in front of you to gawk at sea-themed baubles, seeing the drag queen Dina Martina on her bike doing the same, stopping at Town Hall to watch a guitar player busking with backing looped samples, Zach being toppled by John Waters, pizza and booze. Made me think of this song. Made think of how I love playing Name That Tune with friends. I would have completely rocked that game show. Check the live orchestra memebers in the background, and the guy on the right's face when the host says, "Tahiti." Check the unbelieveably arcane references to pop culture lost on us kids today. This show is so rad.
It's really not funny the second time around. now, for the link==>

Phew. I just watched that crazy shit. I dunno, maybe it's fun with a couple of friends, but after watching that clip I definitely remembered how much I hated that show.
they'd be all "I CAN NAME IT IN TWO NOTES!" and then bah BUM and some guy was all "It's this song you've never heard of!"
And the host goes "That's right!"
Yeesh. Total torture.
